Bartel shared some of her favorite ways to stay in shape with WHO. She says that she does a variety of different exercises. "I love Pilates. I have a beautiful Pilates teacher Sara, I have been seeing her for years. I also love to walk with the boys and squeeze in some high intensity weight training. I am always on the go; I get bored if I sit down for too long."

She Has A Positive Mindset

Bartel shared her secrets for maintaining a positive mindset and a good body image with WHO. "I think sometimes it's only natural to have those little negative thoughts that creep into your head, I know I have had them over the years, but I am lucky that I had a really supportive and balanced upbringing from my mum and dad and the way we looked or what we ate was never a focus. Instead as a family we always kept very active together as we were always outdoors playing every chance we could get. I think that helped to create a positive mindset from a young age."

She Believes In Moderation

Bartel said to WHO that she believes in moderation when it comes to her diet. "I am pretty relaxed with my diet, as I am a big foodie and love eating out at restaurants. I do try to stick to a diet filled with lots of vegetables and protein. I eat a lot of fish and I love tuna. I also live on nuts, eggs and cheese. I also love my carbs and have pasta a couple of nights a week. I really believe in everything in moderation, so you don't crave anything and binge. I also have a bit of a sweet tooth – soft lollies like Chicos or anything sour is my weakness."

Bartel likes to give back to charities. She tells Women's Health that breast cancer is a passion for her. "I am so passionate about raising awareness for breast cancer. I have also done some ambassador work with Pink Hope in the past, which do great work in this space. I think we all know of someone that has been affected by breast cancer- it is such a huge issue in Australia and is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths in Australian women."

She Meditates

Bartel revealed to Women's Health that she likes to practice meditation. "It is so important to remove negative thoughts, stress, worries and anxiety. It has been such a huge difference to my mental health and wellbeing once I started doing it regularly. It can be hard to start, but there are so many apps around like Calm or Headspace which can help."
