6 reasons why Bella Hadid kills it at the gym
The model of the moment? It has to be Bella Hadid. While her sister Gigi has cemented herself as this decade’s girl-next-door-blonde, Bella is the cool girl on the scene thanks to her dark hair, edgy style and rebellious attitude.
And — there’s no denying she’s got a killer figure. Want to know how she keeps in shape whilst looking oh-so-cool at the gym? We’ve got six hot workout tips the supermodel (allegedly) swears by.
1. Vary the exercises
There’s nothing worse in sport than getting bored. To ensure she never falls into a routine, Bella alternates between running, boxing and strength training, and the variations use all the muscles of her body effectively.
Post-gym, the model grabbed a smoothie to-go in a nude convertible bodysuit from shapewear brand Yummie, black leggings, and a pair of low-top workout sneakers from Salomon.

2. The kit is just as important
The one-time Nike ambassador knows that if you don’t feel good about yourself, your motivation levels lack. It begins with a kit that will allow you both to move comfortably and feel strong. Great leggings will keep you motivated when you look in the mirror during a squat session.

3. Try boxing
For long muscles with a well-rounded shape, Bella Hadid is a fan of boxing with her personal trainer. It’s a powerful mix of both cardio and strength training.
4. Short and sharp
It’s better to spend 30 minutes in intensive bursts than two hours wandering about the gym with little motivation. Give priority to short but effective training.

5. Eat a balanced diet
To optimize the effects of training, Bella crafts her diet to match her workout regime. Smoothies, juices, whole grains, healthy proteins… before and after a session, pay attention to what you consume.
6. Stretching is essential
Take time to stretch and relax your muscles after a workout. And it doesn’t stop when your training session ends – keep moving throughout the day to activate the blood circulation and improve recovery.
Want a low-impact workout that packs a little more punch than a straight-up stretch session? The model was photographed alongside pal Hailey Bieber leaving a pilates class in Los Angeles. On Bella: a long-sleeve white crop top, Alo Yoga’s Airbrush leggings, and a pair of Nike Air Max Gs white sneakers.
