1. Morning Workouts
Tiesi starts her day with an early-morning workout. “I work out every morning at 6:00 am. That’s my number one thing for my mental health and, well, for everything,” she told Grazia. “At night I try to do my self-care things like an under-eye mask and hair mask. I have my glass of wine, my quiet time and my bath. Those are my main forms of self-care.”
2. She Loves To Box
Tiesi is a huge fan of boxing-based workouts. “I love boxing,” she told Grazia. “I think I just like to hit things [laughs]. It helps me de-stress. But I honestly love all workouts, it’s such a stress reliever and you get the endorphins and a healthy release. It’s been a big thing that, honestly, has saved me throughout my life as it really centers you and re-sets your body and mind.”
3. Making Time For Working Out
Tiesi has a son with Nick Cannon, and says she now understands how hard it is to find time for yourself as a mother. "People used to say all the time, 'I'm too busy to work out.' And I was like, 'No one's ever too busy to work out.' But now, I truly grasp it," she told OK!. "It's something I really want to help with because it really is difficult to find the motivation to get there and nonetheless know what to do."
4. Low Carb, High Protein Diet

Tiesi says her diet is “boring and plain” for the most part. “I get up in the morning and have my pre-workout, and then I come back and have my protein shake, oatmeal and coffee,” she told Grazia. “My snack is usually a bar or some grapefruit, and lunch is something like a turkey burger and vegetables, or I like to make breakfast tacos. I try to have at least half of an avocado too. My lunch is a lot of protein and is heavier on carbs, especially after a workout. Dinner is no carbs and more about protein and veggies. That’s basically it! I don’t eat after nine if I can help it.”
5. Family Workouts
Tiesi encourages her son to take part in her workouts. "It's very cute,” she told OK!. “He's in there and he's trying to copy everything I'm doing. I actually just got him a baby spin bike and some little baby weights. He loves it. He copies everything I do and I just think it's amazing because as he gets older, it's going to be something that he's interested in and he's seen me do and something that he will instill in his life. It's going to just be natural."
