2. She Enjoys Working Out

Gale revealed some of her fitness and health secrets to W Magazine. She says that she enjoys working out, which helps her stay in shape. “I think a lot of people assume that fitness only means going to the gym, but to me it’s always been about finding anything active that I enjoy, and finding the balance with having fun,” Gale explained. “I’m very lucky because fitness has also ended up being a huge part of my work, which I think of as a great luxury to have something I’m so passionate about organically integrated into my professional life. Having that love for wellness makes staying dedicated far easier as well, everything is harder when we view it as an obligation rather than a pleasure.”

Gale makes sure to workout on a regular basis. She revealed some of her favorite exercises to stay in shape to W Magazine. Gale says that she does a lot of different things. “Usually on my days off, and sometimes before going to set – I end up heading to pilates, boxing or jump rope,” she says. “When that gets boring, I go rock climbing with friends or find some other activity we can tackle.”

4. She Eats Clean

In addition to working out, Gale also pays attention to her diet. She tells W Magazine that she eats healthy, and enjoys clean and organic food better. “I think it also takes a while to get used to healthier foods if you’re used to eating crap, or if you have been brought up eating a certain kind of way. To me, almost everything clean and healthy taste good and you can always play around and make it taste even better.”

5. She Avoids Sugar

Gale tells W Magazine that she has completely removed some things from her diet, and cites a specific ingredient. “I also have a hard rule against eating any cane sugar,” Gale revealed. “My mom is a doctor and cancer researcher, and has spoken to me too many times about the harm sugar has on one’s health for me to not completely cut it out. My diet generally consists of fresh, organic produce (all veggies, nuts, seafood, occasional.)”
