1. She Uses Workout Apps
Perry talked about her wellness, health, and fitness secrets in an interview with Women Fitness. She says that she likes to use different workout apps to help keep herself in shape. Perry does have one app in particular that she uses a lot. “Right now, I downloaded the app Workouts by Katya and I have been doing her 8 week booty workout. It is 5 days of week for 30-45 minutes. I love it.”
2. She Does Cardio 4 Times A Week

An important part of Perry’s fitness routine is cardio. She tells Women Fitness that she does cardio exercises multiple days a week, as they both help keep her body in shape and with her wrestling career. “I also do 4 days a week cardio for 45 minutes – 60 minutes. I feel the cardio always breaks up any soreness from wrestling; it keeps the body super toned as well and helps my stamina and endurance for matches. If people are trying to quickly drop weight, tone up or just feel more in shape, I would advise doing 45 minutes of cardio 3-4 times a week.”
3. She Allows Herself To Have Cravings

Perry does eat healthy, but she also isn’t afraid to indulge. She tells Women Fitness that she allows herself to give into her cravings, as they help with her health. “If I want to have something sweet, I eat something sweet. I try to always eat healthy, but if I’m craving something, then I eat it. Tomorrow is a new day where I can start fresh again. I struggled a lot with eating disorders in high school, so I have to set boundaries for myself so I don’t trigger bad habits.”
4. She Knows The Limits Of Her Hair

Perry has incredible hair, and she makes sure to take care of it. She tells Women Fitness that she knows what works for her hair, specifically what it can’t handle. “The key to gorgeous hair is to know the limits for your hair. I have melted my hair off 3 different times and I have had every type of extension and they all ripped my hair out, except for clip-ins and sew in weave. Now, I wear wigs if I want to do platinum or crazy cool colours. My hair is thick and healthy again because I have just been letting it grow. I know we don’t want to hear this but the secret to having great hair is to not change the color every other week, don’t use a lot of heat and be patient.”
5. She Drinks Protein Shakes

Perry makes sure to eat healthy, and she incorporates a lot of protein into her daily diet. She says that she likes to drink protein shakes, and drinks them before bed when she feels like she doesn’t have enough. "If I feel like I've lacked in protein, I'll have a shake before bed," she tells Women’s Health. "I definitely notice a big difference when I do it. When I'm adding the extra protein and I work really hard, I get more muscle."
