The gorgeous model, who was recently criticized when she showed off a thinner frame a few months ago, looked totally healthy and happy — and says she indulges in food like pizza and pasta whenever she wants!
We got the chance to catch up with Victoria’s Secret model Candice Swanepoel at SoulCycle in NYC, where the Angels were on hand in their VSX workout gear raising money to benefit Pelotonia on July 12, where the model filled us in on her workout routine — and her eating habits!
Although just a few months ago she was criticized for looking too thin, in person, Candice looked healthy and happy — although she doesn’t maintain her body with spinning! When asked if she often went to spinning she said, “Not really, to be honest. My mom was a spinning/aerobics instructor when I was 15-years-old and she killed me! I said, ‘I’m never going spinning again,’ but I’m back for a second try.”
The model, who prefers boxing and building muscle, said sticking to a healthy diet isn’t hard for her. “Lately I’ve been eating whatever I want. When I was younger it used to affect me a lot more, I would feel it in my face, but as I’m older I can eat whatever I want. To feel good and healthy I eat a lot of vegetables, drink a lot of water, and I eat a lot of meat like steak because I want to build muscle.”
Candice admitted her hectic schedule does make things harder. “People don’t realize how hard it is to keep eating habits consistent when you’re traveling,” she said, while admitting that she never deprives herself! “I’ll indulge in pasta, pizza and lots of yummy things.”
Although the model admitted she doesn’t have a lot of downtime, there’s definitely one thing on her to-do list — and it’s seeing fellow model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Transformers! “I haven’t yet,” she said when asked if she had a chance to check out Rosie on the big screen. “I’ve seen little clips and I’ve heard really great things, of course I wanna see it! I’ll go when I get a minute off and when my boyfriend is back from taveling, I would like to go see it with him.”
