Walsh opened up about her wellness to Coveteur. She says that she does a variety of things to stay in shape. Walsh also says that location plays a role in what she does. “When I’m at home in L.A., I hike with the dogs, but since I’m in New York, I do Pilates mixed with hot yoga. I do some weight training, too.”

2. She Eats Healthy Fats

Walsh revealed her diet to Coveteur. “I try to do a high-fat and low-carb diet. We’re sort of socialized to stay away from fats in our culture, when it’s actually the opposite; sugars and carbs are the ones that are bad, our brains are 60% fat. We need good fats, and the proof is in the blood work. I went and had a physical after doing a year of high fat—including animal fats—and my numbers were great. My cholesterol went down, my bone density went up, so that’s really interesting.”

3. She Doesn’t Weight Herself

In her Coveteur interview, Walsh opened up about the pressure to look a certain way, and how she copes with it. “Anybody who says there isn’t [pressure] is lying. I want to look a certain way and feel a certain way, and that’s what I go by. I don’t weigh myself, I go by how I feel in my clothes. I think it’s also important for women to be easy on themselves and be comfortable and healthy. At different times and different ages, you’re different weights and different shapes. I think that’s important.”

4. She Stays Hydrated

Walsh makes sure to stay hydrated. She revealed her secrets to Coveteur. “I bring my own water cooler. Lemon is great because the alkaline balances your body. I feel like I’m winning if I drink one of these [jugs] a day, plus a couple more glasses. This will make you do it. It’s like a giant sippy cup. Nikki Glaser is like, ‘You actually bring your own water cooler—we’re having a water cooler conversation right now because you brought yours with you.’”

5. She Takes Ballet Beautiful Classes

Walsh likes to take ballet inspired fitness classes. She tells Us Weekly that she goes to Ballet Beautiful in particular. “My stylist recommended it,” she said “It’s so Hollywood, but she’s like, ‘If you want to keep that butt up, go to Ballet Beautiful.’ And I was like, ‘Got it, done.’ It’s in my best interest.”
