1. Cardio and Abs

Woods is all about building toned, strong muscles. “I try to do at least 20 to 30 minutes of cardio, starting to warm up and get your heart rate going,” she says. “And then it’s good to always do abs. So every time you work out, do 30 minutes of cardio, always do abs, and then each day you can focus on a different part of your body. So one day you can focus on weight lifting for your arms and shoulders, one day for your back and one day for your legs.”
2. No Tracking Weight

Woods refuses to obsess about the scales, especially as she focuses on muscle. “Weight is taboo because muscle weighs more than fat and you could be losing body fat, but gaining muscle and you can end up weighing more,” she says. “You can keep track of it if you want to. If you don’t care, go off of how you feel. Your mind controls everything and if you’re down on yourself. then your cells literally go off of your thoughts. Your cells and your body are going off of negativity, then they’re actually just not even going to prosper. You just have to stay positive and it’s way easier said than done.”
3. Protein Shakes and Burgers

Woods loves healthy food—and also the occasional burger. “I really like smoothies,” she says. “Like a protein shake or a fruit smoothie. Or an apple. They’re easy, ‘cause after I workout, I don’t want to eat anything too heavy. I try to not eat too much fast food, but if I am going to go to a fast-food restaurant, it’s most likely In-N-Out back home, or Shake Shack in New York. And I love sushi. Sushi’s pretty healthy – it’s just the rice. But, yeah, I wouldn’t consider sushi junk food.”
4. Self-Confidence

Woods learned to embrace her unique and curvy physique after modeling. “I think a true boss knows there is always more to learn,” she says. “You have to keep going, always. Modeling really helps me find my confidence and break out of my shell. When I first started modeling it taught me to face rejection. In the industry and life in general there are going to be a lot of people who don’t like you or understand you, you have to be ok with the fact that what other people think really doesn’t matter.”
5. Taking Care of Her Skin
Woods is careful to take care of her skin. “I actually love skincare,” she says. “Hopefully one day I will have my own skincare line. I just always try to make sure I take off all my makeup before I go to sleep, wash my face every morning and every night. I tend to have kind of dry [skin], so I don’t use too many toners, but I love like, a rosewater spray toner. Things that are light and refreshing.”
