Whenever we look at Victoria’s Secret annual fashion runway shows, we get a little jealous seeing the almost perfect bodies of supermodels like Miranda Kerr or Lily Aldrige. For the average, non-model woman, it’s almost impossible to have the Miranda’s face (unless you’d want to opt for plastic surgery), but you definitely can copy their fitness routines to have a similarly toned body.
Check out what our favourite fashion models love to do when it comes to working out!
1. Gisele Bündchen
The mother-of-two is very determined in her workout sessions and diet plans. She missed out on kung fu and yoga lessons even during her pregnancy of her second child!
The three key principles of her healthy lifestyle are:
- Eat what you crave for but keep a check on the quantity.
- Don’t eliminate carbs as it is important to provide energy to your body.
- Workout is important.

4. Alessandra Ambrosio
Alessandra concentrates more on exercise rather than just controlling what she eats. Even though she’s a famous supermodel, she still enjoys foods that we all crave for like ice cream, soda, cheesecake and chips. However, she told Health Remarks: “I really eat everything that is pleasant to me but nevertheless, I always know when to stop. And not to go too far, I take in small portions. I do not understand those who go all out on diets. I am not ready to go on such extremes in order to have a good figure.”
She practices the Brazilian Butt Lift which combines ballet and capoeira – a Brazilian martial arts – a little kickboxing and Afro-Brazilian dance three times a week.

Natalia doesn’t workout much but she makes sure she dedicates 15 minutes every day to horse riding, cycling or going for a run with her children. She also runs for a yearly marathon. Apart from that, she follows a blood type diet due to previous digestion issues and she said, “Ever since, I have more energy and I’ve been doing it for five years now. It really works or me. It’s not about eating more protein or more carbohydrates – it’s which protein you eat, and which carbohydrates.”
