Intermittent Fasting

"I'm not on the grind as much with my workouts, so I'm intermittent fasting," Nicole tells Women's Health. Intermittent fasting works by "prolonging the period when your body has burned through the calories consumed during your last meal and begins burning fat," explains Johns Hopkins Medicine. However, she still enjoys breakfast foods for lunch. "I love eggs and gluten-free bread with a side of smoked salmon or some ham." Sometimes she will add a side of sliced cherry tomatoes or avocado. "They're just my favorite," she says. Salads are another go-to.
30 to 45 Minute Workouts
Nicole keeps her workouts short but intense. "Everything in moderation. You don't have to kill yourself. When I was part of the Pussycat Dolls, I used to think you had to work out for three or four hours a day, but you don't. It's about doing 20, 30 or 40 minutes. I usually do 30- or 45-minute workouts, and it's about being smart with that time – doing what works for you," she tells Women's Health UK. She also revealed that she limits her workouts to three per week.
Healthy Snacks

Nicole snacks on raw almonds, cherry tomatoes, snap peas. Himalayan salt popcorn, and dark chocolate with sea salt or almonds. "If I have some frozen fruit laying around, I'll make an oat milk smoothie," she says. "Sometimes I'll put turmeric powder in it, which is delicious and anti-inflammatory." She also loves salt and vinegar flavored potato chips and Cheetos. It's "real Cheetos or the fire hot ones," she says.
High Intensity Workouts

Nicole prefers intense workouts. "I like to switch it up and try new things, but, most recently, I've just been pretty consistent with more HIIT workouts," she told Women's Health. "I've noticed that as I've got older, HIIT workouts are more impactful for results. I'll run for a few minutes, then do a weights interval. HIIT training gives me really good results when I combine weights with running on the treadmill, or another form of cardio," she added to Women's Health UK. There is lots of research backing up the benefits of HIIT workouts, including body fat reduction, improved cardiovascular function, and mental health. It is also time effective.
Meditation
Nicole makes sure to get her zen on first thing in the morning. "Before I do anything, I start with a 20-minute meditation and prayer," she told Women's Health UK. "When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress," says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:
- Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
- Building skills to manage your stress
- Increasing self-awareness
- Focusing on the present
- Reducing negative emotions
- Increasing imagination and creativity
- Increasing patience and tolerance
- Lowering resting heart rate
- Lowering resting blood pressure
- Improving sleep quality
