Laysla De Oliveira is giving her fans a glimpse at the latest episode of her show. In a new social media post the actress shows off her amazing body in a two-piece workout set while shooting bad guys. “CRUZin at @tarantactical 💥All new episode of @lionesspplus out today❤️🔥,” she captioned the Instagram clip. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
1. Yoga
Laysla “completely transformed” her body for her show. “I was just a yoga girl before this,” she told Who. There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood,” they said. “People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”
2. Strength Training
What kind of training did she do to get into shape for her show? “They put me through a lot of training. I went to a gym in LA called Unbreakable and they taught me some great hand-to-hand combat and they started my strength training … I was wrestling fully grown men by the time I was done,” she said, adding that it took “about three months,” to get into shape. “It was incredible. By the time I was done, I was feeling pretty invincible,” she says.
3. Coffee
Laysla loves coffee. “Good morning, I just wanted to say that a good hand model never reveals her secrets 😏🤍,” she captioned a photo of herself drinking out of a cup.According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.
4. Walking
Laysla gets her steps in with the help of her pooch. “Lately,” she captioned a photo of herself walking her dog. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.
5. Red Wine
Laysla enjoys red wine. Here she is holding a glass in Mallorca. “Red wine, in moderation, has long been thought of as heart healthy,” says the Mayo Clinic. “The alcohol and certain substances in red wine called antioxidants may help prevent coronary artery disease, the condition that leads to heart attacks.”
