Yoga And Running
Katie said before jumping into the Drenched workout NYC-based trainer Keoni Hudoba was teaching at the event, 'I try to do everything and change it up because doing the same routine gets so boring, but I do a lot of yoga, Vinyasa flow.'
For perfect fitness, Katie even tried the fusion of workouts that involves Ballet and boxing, Aerobarre. She said, 'What you put into is what you get out. I do a lot of core work and cardio. I used to run a lot more than I do now but my hip started hurting and my IT band, so doing yoga along with that and stretching your body, elongating your muscles has sort of helped out.'
Interestingly Katie wants her yoga instructor to be a new DJ, she explained, 'I wish that the music was pumping. I like yoga but I want to sweat at the same time, so I enjoy classes that are playing good music. It makes it fun.' She wanted a playlist: Anything by Rihanna and 'Empire State of Mind' by Jay-Z and Alicia Keys. (You heard it here first, 'Club Yoga' is going to be the new thing.)
And when there is a question of staying fit Katie, 'Every time I get to the gym I want to give 140 percent and it's just not going to happen, and that's ok. Don't try to push yourself to your limit every single day.' Her must-have gym bag stash is a change of clothes. 'It's terrible walking out of the gym and feeling wet and gross.'
Katie Cassidy's Diet And Nutrition
Katie revealed about her diet during an interview with InStyle. 'It's a lot of protein, vegetables, greens, and skipping the red meat. I've been like that for a very long time; it's just a personal preference.'
Katie Continued, 'I always do the same breakfast: smoked salmon, poached eggs, avocado, multi-grain toast, grapefruit juice, and coffee.' For lunch she says, 'I try to do greens again, but then I’ll try to put some sort of protein on there.' And her dinner depends on the mood she’s in. 'I do a lot of brown rice, pasta, or chicken, and then some sort of vegetable.'
Katie Cassidy's go-to snacks are, 'I love almonds and fruit. They're both super good for you so, I'm always snacking on one or the other.'
