VICTORIA SECRET MODEL KARLIE KLOSS LOVES MAT & REFORMER PILATES

Six foot one (around 185cm) beauty Karlie Kloss is genetically blessed, no doubt about that! However I do find it very refreshing when I read that celebrities, and in particular models, are dedicated to working out. Kloss works out around five times a week, and whilst she regularly mixes up her workouts her one constant is PILATES. 

In addition to consistent Pilates classes the Victoria Secret model mixes up her exercise regime with spin classes, ballet classes and personal training. Kloss says that she is 'always trying new classes and techniques!'

Karlie admits that she 'loves' working out on the Pilates reformer as well as doing matwork classes and exercises with light weights and resistance bands whenever she has a chance. 

It appears that Kloss's personal trainer Julie Kaska programs her sessions to include aspects of Pilates in addition to Karlie's Pilates classes. 'We focus on a general lengthening, strengthening workout'. Kaska also reveals that the toned model is a 'delight to work with'. “She’s (Karlie) so full of life all the time. I don’t know how she does it! She jumps off a plane and squeezes in a workout in L.A., and still has a smile on her face.”

Maintaining Karlie's trim figure is not all thanks to Pilates however! Kloss eats very healthily with an eating plan comprising of fruits, vegetables and lean protein. She always carries food with her and snacks often, reaching for dark chocolate, nuts, apples, spearmint or even cookies! Interestingly, Karlie has her own cookie brand! They are called Karlie's Kookies and are vegan and are filled with nourishing ingredients. If only they were in Australia!

VICTORIA SECRET MODEL KARLIE KLOSS SHARES her EXERCISE SECRETS and why she LOVES PILATES

At only 21 years of age Victoria Secret angel Karlie Kloss is ranked 7th out of the top 50 models in the world and is one of Vogue Paris's top 30 models of the 2000's. Kloss stole headlines last year due to her very cute pixie cut, her fashionable style and of course, her toned & trim body! Karlie recently gave an interview where she revealed all her health and fitness secrets, which of course included PILATES! 

Kloss recently told 'T' magazine that she maintains her physique by exercising at least five days a week, balancing her cardio and strength/weight training. Karlie is a classically trained ballerina and therefore grew up with exercise framing her childhood. The young model loves to workout with friends whenever she can, as this pushes and challenges her. Saying that, Kloss also values working out solo, as she views exercise as "an opportunity to get away from everything and focus on myself.  It keeps me centered, and it’s the one or so hour in my day when I can clear my mind and just focus on movement." 

The sought-old model loves to work out outdoors and takes advantage of the summer weather by going for hikes and bike rides. In chilly New York City in winter, however, Kloss prefers the gym. Karlie says that feeling "strong both physically and mentally" motivates her to stay in shape and keep at her fitness regime. "I exercise to challenge my body to reach new goals. Movement feeds my mind and gives me energy throughout the day."

This Victoria Secret angel has also learnt to exercise incidentally. "I’ve learned that there are so many easy ways to incorporate movement into your everyday life. Instead of taking an escalator, I’ll take the stairs. I try to walk instead of taking the subway or a cab. It’s all about staying in motion." 

When 'T' magazine asked Kloss what exercise regime she prefers with regards to Pilates or Yoga, Karlie was quick to comment. "I enjoy yoga, but I’m a huge Pilates fan. Pilates relies on isolated, controlled movement and has allowed me to build up my core and strengthen my legs and arms." Karlie loves to Instagram evidence of her Pilates workouts whenever she gets a chance! 

The beauty admits that eating healthily plays an enormous role in maintaining her enviable shape. "It’s so important to nurture your body, especially when you’re exercising and moving constantly. Your body needs fuel to stay healthy and strong. Nothing can substitute for a balanced diet." Karlie has even utilised her healthy habits for the greater good! Kloss recently designed dairy and gluten-free cookies for Momofuku Milk Bar. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of these cookies is donated to hunger relief. 

Karlie also sets fitness goals for her future and continues to challenge herself. "One fitness and life goal I’ve yet to accomplish is running a marathon. It’s on my bucket list. It is such an amazing accomplishment for the body and mind. You need incredible determination!"
