In the weeks leading up to the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, it’s no secret that the Angels ramp up their exercise and get strict with their diet—and we don’t blame them. Feeling sexy in lingerie in our bedroom is one thing, but on a world stage…now that takes serious work. But have you ever wondered what they do in the 24 hours prior to the show? I mean, surely “what’s done is done,” right? Not quite.
The day before the big gig, all the angels hit the gym, hard. Turns out, there’s a lot of shredding that can be done mere hours before the event. With the help of Kirk Myers and Dara Hart from Manhattan-based fitness studio, Dogpound, the girls train their body parts most “on show” in the show. For Karlie Kloss this year, her abs and booty were the focus. So, she had a one-on-one with Dara to work her lower body and core.
Like any good supermodel, she went from sweating to selfies, uploading her workout to her new Youtube channel, Klossy. Try it for yourself!
Round 1: Lower Body
Aim for 12 reps of each.
- Wide-stance sumo squats
- Resistance band walks
- Split squat (12 on each side)
- Plank crossover with glute squeeze
- Lunges with weight pass-thru
Complete this 3-5 times.
Round 2: Core
- Slide mountain climbers
- Side plank twists
- Modified V-ups
Complete this circuit 2-3 times.
Round 3: Glutes
- Donkey kicks with ankle weights
- Corner kicks with ankle weights
- Fire Hydrants with ankle weights
Complete this circuit as many times as you can.
Although Karlie used equipment, you can make it a bodyweight workout by ditching the tools.
