1. Her Diet Is Clean and Healthy

Healthy and clean eating is key for Alessandra. The former Victoria’s Secret Angel told Harper's Bazzar in 2017 that she really amps up her approach to health when she needs to — but will never starve herself. "For breakfast I usually have eggs and/or avocado toast and after my work-out I usually grab a green juice followed by lunch where I usually have a salad along with some chicken or fish. For dinner I might go for sushi, or grill Brazilian BBQ at home," she said. She added to Glamour that she has “a serious weakness for Japanese food,” especially sushi.

2. She a Go-To Workout

Alessandra sticks to a few workouts that work for her body. The model has been doing Pilates for many years and regularly attends reformer classes with her pals, using it as an opportunity to “get in some girl time,” she told Glamour. “It's important to break a sweat every day, and I love the way Pilates makes me feel long and lean."

3. She Loves Yoga

Alessandra has another favorite workout, claiming it does double duty. "I love to do yoga as it centers me and also at the same time keeps me in shape," she told FOX News. She also loves that she can do it anywhere. "Since there is a lot to do around the house sometimes I don't have much time to work out, in which case I try to do some stretching and hold a plank for five to 10 minutes.”

4. She Weight Trains

Alessandra is also a fan of weight training. During one of her Instagram videos she revealed her routine to her followers, which included weight lifting, intense interval moves (including mountain climbers and kettlebell squats) and ab exercises.

5. Her Lifestyle Is Active

Alessandra stays super active, especially with her family. "We love going to the beach, hanging in Malibu and playing volleyball… We like going rollerblading and biking, all kind of things!" she told People about her family’s hobbies.

Ambrosio tells E! Online, when it comes to working out, she always tries to have a positive attitude. Especially when she’s preparing for a gig.

Ambrosio also says to E! Online, she is a big fan of the Tracy Anderson Method fitness classes. "The music is really loud and you don't feel like you're working out; you feel like you're dancing."

Ambrosio told Harper’s Bazaar that after becoming a mother, she decided to pay a lot more attention to her fitness and health. "I think that my workout regime has changed more after giving birth to my children, as I didn't really exercise before," she says.

4. She Works Out To Stay Healthy

Being a model, there is a lot of pressure to lose weight, and maintain a certain shape. However, Ambrosio says that she prefers to stay healthy, not to lose weight. "I think my motivation is more to stay healthy than look good,” she said to Harper’s Bazaar.

5. She Switches Up Her Workouts

Ambrosio tells Allure that she likes to switch up her workouts, especially when she’s preparing for a gig or a show. “I do different things—Pilates, barre, Physique 57 yoga, outside sports, all kinds of things.”

Alessandra Ambrosio started 2024 off by hitting the ground running—or more specifically, hitting the treadmill running. The former Victoria’s Secret model shared a video of herself wearing a gray two-piece workout outfit, going through an entire routine including running, kettlebells, resistance bands, and stair climbing. “Welcome to my @technogym. Perfect way to start the new year!!!” she captioned the Instagram post. Here’s what Ambrosio’s health and wellness routine look like at 42.

1. Sea, Sand, and Swimwear

Ambrosio’s perfect day is one spent in nature with her family. “I love being woken up by the sound of the ocean, so anywhere near the sea, especially if my kids are around,” she tells Hello!. “We recently went to Fernando de Noronha. It was magical – there are beautiful ocean views all around you. I’d eat a traditional Brazilian breakfast, fruit, avocado, eggs, fresh juices and coffee. I would change into something comfortable, probably Alo Yoga activewear. After yoga I’d jump in the ocean wearing Gal Floripa swimwear followed by a long walk on the beach in my Pangaia sweats.”

2. Beach Volleyball and Beef

Ambrosio’s favorite foods are grilled picanha and sushi, which she enjoys outdoors. “Lately, I have been researching brands like Bottletop that create sustainable products that look amazing,” she tells Hello!. “When I’m not working, I like to let my skin breathe, so I would use Dr Barbara Sturm Sun Drops for SPF protection, and Beautycounter BB Cream after my morning exercise. Instead of heading somewhere else, I would stay in the same place, so I don’t have to travel – and hopefully all of my friends and family will be there so we can play beach volleyball… Staying by the beach in Fernando de Noronha would be a dream afternoon; there is so much nature to explore and it has the most magical sunsets. In Brazil, nature is a huge part of our lives. We are surrounded by the oceans and the Amazon.”

3. Gratitude and Journaling

Ambrosio’s wellness routine is focused around gratitude. “It’s not easy, but I have my tricks,” she tells Forbes. “I like waking up in the morning, doing my coffee, and then I have my diary next to my bed. It’s a 5-minute diary - like a gratitude book. I just write a little bit about what I expect out of my day, what I’m grateful for, so just to start the day in a positive vibe. I have some things that I know how to calm me down, how to center, and how to be present in the moment that I do.”

4. Weights, Weights, Weights

Ambrosio’s workout includes resistance training and Pilates for a fantastic all-body exercise. She’s also a devotee of the Tracy Anderson method. "I have been working with Tracy [Anderson] for last couple years, and what I love about her classes that it does not feel like exercise," Ambrosio told Bravo. "It's almost like taking a fun dance class that targets all of your muscle groups, and you get amazing results...she also has online classes, so when I travel, I am able to work out in my hotel room."

5. Victoria’s Secret Veteran

Ambrosio is proud of her time as a Victoria’s Secret Angel. “Victoria’s Secret was like a family for me and I learned so much with them and it was a brand that I admired,” she tells Forbes. “It was a school for me of modeling because I was working every day. We got to go to so many different places, so it just really made me really comfortable in front of the camera. I don’t know if I would change anything. I guess everything is about learning and when you’re young - I started with Victoria’s Secret when I was 19, so I was still kind of young, even if I thought I knew everything in the world (laughs). I was learning and if I did mistakes, even the mistakes, I think it counts to learn and not to do it again.”
