Farrah does a lot of tunny work. "Core workouts are the best. I go a personal trainer four times a week. I’m always about inner thigh, don’t lose all of that. Toning the outer parts of our body and strengthening the core," she told OKMagazine.com.
2. FODMAPS Diet

"When it comes to dieting. FODMAPS Diet. My family’s health regimen that’s been the best," Farrah said. "It keeps my energy up." According to Johns Hopkins, FODMAP stands for fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols, “which are short-chain carbohydrates (sugars) that the small intestine absorbs poorly,” they explain. “Some people experience digestive distress after eating them.” No-nos on the diet include dairy-based milk, yogurt and ice cream, wheat-based products such as cereal, bread and crackers, beans and lentils, some vegetables, such as artichokes, asparagus, onions and garlic, and some fruits, such as apples, cherries, pears and peaches. Instead, you should eat eggs and meat, certain cheeses such as brie, Camembert, cheddar and feta, almond milk, grains like rice, quinoa and oats, vegetables like eggplant, potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers and zucchini, and fruits such as grapes, oranges, strawberries, blueberries and pineapple.
3. Two-a-Days

Farrah revealed to Life & Style that she is seriously committed to fitness. "There have been a lot of good new workouts. So, I am kind of like doing two-a-days, but [with] a different workout regimen,” she said.
4. Boxing
Another one of her favorite workouts? "Boxing is always great," she says. "I am not going to lie, but I have been mixing [it] up." Harvard Health maintains that boxing is a great way to build strength, improve balance, posture, hand-eye coordination, boost mood and endurance, and helps increase alertness.
5. Pilates
One of her favorite workouts? Pilates. "I have been doing Pilates. I have been doing just stretching — just pure stretching classes — nothing else,” she told Life & Style. Why is pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic there are lots of benefits to the workout, as it “strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility resulting in improved overall health. It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.
