Stunner Josie Canseco in Two-Piece Workout Gear Celebrates "Hot Girl Fall or Something"

Josie Canseco is heating things up this autumn – and doing it in style. In a recent social media post, the model and influencer showed off her toned abs in a two-piece Alo exercise set, captioning the photos, “hot girl fall or something @alo.” But her fitness journey is about more than just looking good. “I grew up playing sports and being very active,” Josie told Us Weekly, adding, “It’s kind of a routine thing that just helps me feel better about myself, about my life, and my confidence.” From boxing to spin classes, Josie embraces a variety of workouts, while balancing it all with a pescatarian diet and a healthy dose of self-care. Here's how she keeps it all in check.

1. Exercising for Mental Health

Josie understands the mental health benefits of exercise. “I grew up playing sports and being very active,” Josie told Us. “So for me, it’s kind of a routine thing that just helps me feel better about myself, about my life and my confidence. And I feel like that shines through when you feel good about what you’ve done.”

2. Boxing

Josie also takes “Rumble classes'' and boxes. “Boxing training one-on-one, like really focused and in my zone,” she added to Us. According to Harvard Health, boxing is a great way to build strength, improve balance, posture, hand-eye coordination, boost mood and endurance, and helps increase alertness.

When Josie is on vacation, you can find her staying active by snorkeling. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

4. Spin Class

Josie takes spin classes. “I love cycling, I do it all the time. It’s a good cardio mix. I’m all about cardio and high intensity music,” Canseco told Us Weekly. She cycled “maybe like two or three times a week” to prep for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis.

5. High Protein Diet

Josie feels her best “when I’ve really been on a good routine of eating right and eating a lot of vegetables and good proteins and balancing my diet — and it’s not all about going full-in and being, like, cold-turkey, cutting things out and being like a health freak. It’s all about balance for me,” she told Us. “I’ve been slowly transitioning to be pescatarian. “I just kind of have a soft spot for animals and down the line, I’d like to work with them and have my own nonprofit one day. So not eating red meats and chicken obviously, and slowly transitioning into [not eating fish],” she continued. “It’s just balance. It’s OK to have pizza and stuff like that, but [weight loss] should be hard work, it shouldn’t be easy.”
