Adriana Lima's Victoria Secret Fitness Plan

Adriana Lima is one of the most beautiful people in the world, and when all of that attention is focused on your body, you have to work that much harder to stay in perfect shape.

Lima explains her diet in the month and a half leading up to a Victoria’s Secret fashion show:

"I’m doing a combination of different protein shakes — it's called Metagenics. And also, I only can eat green vegetables, everything grilled or steamed, or four ounces of any type of protein. And usually that’s what I have for lunch and dinner, and every three hours in between I have a protein shake or cereal bar."

Lima’s diet is essentially zero-carb, and she spends two hours in the gym every day in the six weeks leading up to the show. Her workout routine consists mostly of boxing and jumping rope — she almost exclusively works out with her own body weight instead of relying on machines and dumbbells.

She also talked about the benefits of regularly working out:

"I’m really looking to my future. When I get older, I want to really be in shape. And also working out is a great source of detox, you know? You sweat out all the toxins, the impurities come out. Also it helps with your mood, you look great, it helps with your skin, and also it helps with my immune system too. I never get sick when I work out. I have actually more energy. Working out should be a part of everybody’s routine.”

Obviously her routine is working. She’s gorgeous!
