Hale says that she loves to exercise, and will try any type of workout. “I think the more things you try and the more active you become, the more confident and comfortable you become with yourself,” Hale tells People. Hale says that her workouts are, “SoulCycle and Training Mate. I love to hike.”

2. She Loves Working Out

Hale says that she actually enjoys working out, which makes her want to exercise as often as possible. “I’m much happier, my mood is better when I’m consistently working out,” she says to People. “I’m just one of those weirdos who likes working out. I really enjoy it.” Hale has even taught classes at Propel Labs.

3. She’s A Pescatarian

Hale tells people that she mainly follows a pescatarian diet, which is a vegetarian diet, but with fish. “I mainly follow a pescatarian diet,” Hale says. However, Hale also says that she’s not a fan of using the word “diet”, and just focuses on eating healthy. “I don’t even like to say diet, just a pescatarian lifestye. I don’t do dairy and I try to cut back on processed stuff. I typically like to prepare all my food so I know what I’m getting.”

4. She Believes In Moderation

Hale admits that she indulges once in a while, and says that she believes in moderation. “I love going out to eat,” she says to People. “I’m not going to say no to French fries or pasta if it’s there. I just try to eat in moderation.” "Nuts, fruits, vegetables and whole grains have an intact food structure. It takes time to chew them and digest them. If you increase the intake of these foods, they’re likely to make you feel full longer. And at the end of the day, you’ll have eaten just a little bit less," says Harvard Health.

5. She’s Sure of Herself

Hale tells People that she embraces herself and her body at all times. “There are good days and bad days, but I’ve found [self-assurance] really does come with age,” she said. “I think you hit a point where you accept who you are and what you look like and you kind of just roll with it. You find out what you like and what your strengths and weaknesses are — it develops over time.”

Lucy Hale is an actress and singer. She’s best known for her role as Aria Montgomery on the ABC Family/Freeform drama series, Pretty Little Liars. Her other roles include Katy Keane and A Cinderella Story: Once Upon A Song. Hale recently hit the gym with some friends. She shared a photo of the group on her Instagram story. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Lucy Hale stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. She Eats Healthy

Hale shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with People. She makes sure to eat healthy. “I mainly follow a pescatarian diet,” Hale says. “I don’t even like to say diet, just a pescatarian lifestyle. I don’t do dairy and I try to cut back on processed stuff. I typically like to prepare all my food so I know what I’m getting.”

2. She Knows What Works For Her Skin

Hale shared her skincare secrets in an interview with Glamour. She says that she made sure to do research on what works best for her skin. “I didn’t know that I wasn’t supposed to use the products that people with dry skin would use,” she says. “I wanted to use everything, so I’d just use all the products, not knowing I was going to have a reaction. Now I know I have combination skin, which is oily in some parts and dry in some parts, and that’s what leads to the breakouts.”

3. She Has A Simple Skincare Routine

For Hale, simplicity is best when it comes to her skincare routine. “I used to have a 20-step skin-care routine, and I loved that,” she told Glamour. “But now, simple and consistent is the way to go. I have a very, very, very simple routine. It’s just about letting my skin breathe when I can. I used to think because I would break out that I shouldn’t add more moisture, but when your skin’s dry, it’s going to try to take care of you and produce more oil, and that’s what leads to breakouts.”

4. She Uses Hyaluronic Acid

Hale shared some of her favorite skincare products with Glamour. “I love hyaluronic acid, always, always, always, but I didn’t realize it needs to be used on damp skin. Otherwise it doesn’t seep into the skin. Now I put it on right after the shower. With other products, I’ll avoid certain places. I put certain things here, certain things there. But with hyaluronic acid, I know that it’s good for my whole face.”

5. She Drinks A Wellness Powder

Hale shared with Glamour that she likes to drink wellness powder. “I have a wellness powder that I have in the morning before anything else touches my stomach, before coffee or breakfast. It’s from ActivatedYou. My friend Maggie Q. actually started the line with a doctor. It’s a green powder with all the pro- and prebiotics that you need for the day. I also was not educated about gut health until recently. I don’t know why it never crossed my mind that what you’re putting in your stomach has a direct effect with your body, but it does. I’ve really noticed a difference in my skin. I used to get really clogged around here, like on my jawline, and since I started that in my morning routine, it’s really helped.”

1. She Protects Her Face’s Natural Oils

Culpo revealed some of her wellness secrets to Net-A-Porter. She says that when it comes to skincare, she likes to keep her natural oils protected. “I don’t always wash my face in the morning as I like letting my natural oils do their thing, and I think face wash can make the skin quite dry. Instead, I always apply a super-hydrating moisturizer and drink a ton of water as soon as I wake up.”

2. She Keeps Her Morning Skincare Simple & Her Night Routine Varied

Culpo revealed some of her skincare secrets to Byrdie. She says that she keeps her morning routine simple and her night routine more complex. “In the morning, I just apply an SPF. I am always trying out new products, so what I gravitate toward is often changing. At night, I usually use an oil and a serum. Right now, I love the Clarins Double Serum ($90). In the morning, I use a Vitamin C serum and an SPF, and, typically, I just rinse my skin with warm water instead of using a cleanser. It is something I swear by—it allows for the oils on my skin from sleeping to absorb naturally.”

3. She Stopped Using Certain Products

Culpo revealed to Byrdie that she has cut some skin products out of her routine. “I am always making changes depending on where my skin is at. For example, I’ve recently stopped using retinol. Unfortunately, I love the sun so much and find it hard to completely protect my face from it. I’ve decided to forego some of those more intense facial products for more mild options, especially in the sunny summer months.”

4. She Stays Hydrated

Culpo makes sure to stay hydrated. She tells Nat-A-Porter that she makes sure to do this when she travels. “I double up my water intake by drinking lots and hydrate my skin topically. Flying is so dehydrating for the skin, so I always do a hydrating mask after landing. I also use SK-II Facial Treatment Essence and Caudalie Beauty Elixir during the flight to bring a little glow to the skin.”

5. She Eats Produce

Culpo tells Net-A-Porter that she makes sure to stay healthy. “I think it’s very important to get my greens in every day. I pick up fruit and vegetables from the farmers’ market on the weekends to juice throughout the week – it makes you feel so good, and using fresh ingredients makes all the difference. I also take supplements that boost my gut health and complexion.”

Lucy maintains variety with exercise, by doing one-on-one sessions with a trainer and also taking classes. “[My trainer’s] the one who’s forcing me to try pull-ups, so every couple of days we’ll try to do more,” she told People. “But I also like group fitness. I think that’s a way you can see your friends and break a sweat but still have a good time. I do things like Soul Cycle and Training Mate. I love to hike.”

3. She Maintains a “Pescatarian Lifestyle”

Lucy eats healthy the majority of the time, but at restaurants allows herself to cheat. “I love going out to eat. I’m not going to say no to French fries or pasta if it’s there. I just try to eat in moderation,” she dished to People.

5. She Is a Breakfast Person

"I think about breakfast all the time," Lucy revealed to Harper’s Bazaar. "I like all the meals, but I think breakfast is definitely my favorite. But my breakfast can vary from a peanut butter, Perfect food bar to chocolate chip pancakes, with bacon and eggs. Just kind of depends on the day."

6. She Loves Strength Training

"I do a lot of strength training because I like to feel strong,” she revealed to Shape. I'm 5-foot-2, but I like to feel like a badass and to know that I could kick someone's ass. So I do pull-ups and do squats with the big-boy weights. I even flipped one of those big tires once. And I just discovered Pilates. My butt has never been higher, and my abs have never been stronger. Our bodies are so amazing and resilient, and we don't give them enough credit. I spent much of my teen years and early 20s not loving my body and not being good to it. I'm trying to make up for that because we get only one body. We have to take care of our temple."

7. She Is All About “Intuitive Eating”

Lucy has an interesting approach to diet. “I call it intuitive eating,” she told Shape about how she eats. “If I'm craving chicken, I'll have chicken. If my body is saying, 'Don't reach for the doughnut,' I don't reach for the doughnut. If my body is saying, 'You deserve a doughnut,' then I'll do it. But I'll never give up coffee. I'll never give up my lattes or bread. There was a phase in my life when I didn't eat bread. What the hell was I thinking?"
