It's that time of year again...the Victoria Secret Fashion Show is almost upon us! It airs on December 10th in NYC and promises to deliver an entertaining and explosive show - as it does every year. I know some girls (and several guys) who look forward to this event every year with bated breath. It's nice to see that one major star of the show, Alessandra Ambrosio, is exercising up a storm in a Pilates class to get her already amazing body runaway ready!
One may be excused in thinking that the Victoria Secret models do not need to work out to stay slender. However, the famous Brazilian model's exercise regime blows this myth out of the water. Ambrosio attends regular reformer Pilates classes, as well as working out with a PT and doing cardio, such as long walks on the beach or going for hikes. The stunning model insists that she isn't a fan of the gym and running on a treadmill.
Clearly Alessandra's workout routine has been working for her, as she looks amazing after two kids! (Alessandra has a five-year-old girl Anya and a one-year-old boy Noah). The 32-year-old was spotted hanging out with her adorable kids before a particularly gruelling Pilates class in Santa Monica last Thursday. Alessandra looked extremely toned and trim in tight fuchsia skull and crossbone leggings as she worked up quite a sweat in her reformer class (pictured above). The brunette beauty looked exhausted yet invigorated after her tough class as she grabbed a coffee and met up with the father of her two kids and fiancee of five years, businessman Jamie Mazur. The model went makeup free to her gruelling Pilates class and we think she looks just as stunning as she does on the catwalk.
The five foot ten mother recently revealed that she did initially feel pressure in the modelling world to look thinner than she was. "In the beginning of my career I really felt the pressure to be thin - but one thing I always said was that if I had to stop eating to work then I would have to switch careers. Compromising my health to be a model was never an option for me."
The gorgeous model admits that she loves savoury food and allows herself an occasional treat. "I love Cheetos, those hot, spicy kind,' she says. 'And chocolate. Every time I'm in the airport I'm buying Cheetos and eating them on the airplane". We love reading that models indulge in junk food sometimes too!
Career wise Alessandra is very dedicated and approaches her work seriously and professionally. "Modelling is a real job...When I first started (modelling), it was a hobby, something fun to do. Before, models had that rock star life and it was all about going to the parties and having that glamorous life, and I think these days, models are more like businesswomen and the whole industry takes it really serious."
If you want to see this Pilates advocate strut her stuff on the catwalk, tune into the Victoria Secret Fashion Show on Foxtel in December! It's bound to be an entertaining event, with other angel favourites such as Adriana Lima, Lily Aldridge and Candice Swanepoel gracing the stage as well!
