Personal trainer

Victoria’s secret model, Arlenis Sosa, was asked about fitness and stuff. She says there’s always time to train. You just have to fit in. For example, when she’s traveling she packs her sneakers and tries to walk around her hotel, or sometimes gets up early (around 5am) and goes to the nearby gym/hotel gym. When that’s not possible, she does floor exercises like ab crunches in her hotel room.

When she’s not traveling, she works out with her personal trainer and does a lot of Pilates.

She enjoys listening to house music while exercising like Swedish House Mafia, Sebastian etc.

She always has nuts and non-sweet stuff with her. This is her favorite snack.

She drinks plenty of water to keep herself hydrated and to keep her skin glowing. It also helps in anti aging.
