Many gym lovers swear by cardio workouts, but famous actress Hilary Duff is no longer one of them. She completely changed her tune after welcoming her second child last year, and bodybuilding quickly became an essential part of her routine.
The Lizzie McGuire star discussed her approach to fitness with Women’s Health and admitted she used to avoid lifting weights in the past. That changed after she gave birth to her daughter last year, and cardio workouts suddenly started making her more tired and hungry.
“I’m lifting and squatting and using a barbell with lots of weight on it, and I’ve never felt so strong but lean. This is such a different, more efficient way of working out,” admitted Hilary Duff.
In addition to turning to weight training to get in shape, former Disney star also hired a flexible dieting coach. She became more mindful about the things she was consuming while following a weekly menu customized specifically for her, but she still gets to enjoy most of her favorite foods.
