Margaret Cho gives us her input on how to stay healthy:
How do you stay in shape? Dp up have any fitness tips?
My greatest challenge in staying fit is keeping up the workouts while I am traveling. I am usually too unmotivated to go to the hotel gym by myself. What I do now is treat myself to a personal trainer in every new city that I go to. It’s expensive, but then again not that much more than a really good meal with wine from room service, and its so much better for me. I make up for the money by eating at restaurants outside the hotel! It’s usually better food anyway!
I get to meet a new fitness expert and learn new techniques and come home not having missed work outs. This combined with working twice a week with my amazing trainer in Los Angeles, Alex Dedria, and the big head start I got from Louis van Amstel my fantastic partner from dancing with the stars, I have completely transformed my body.
I also find that it really helps to have friends who want to work out with you and to make dates to meet people at dance classes (like Louis’ dance blast!). i will even have Alex come and train myself and a couple of friends. Again, it costs about as much to take everyone out for a nice dinner and drinks and it leaves us all feeling good about ourselves. I realize that it├óΓé¼Γäós a lot of money to spend but I am worth it! I am learning to treasure my body and enjoy myself in it, and part of that is treating myself to and with fitness as opposed to food — however one of the benefits of exercise is you can eat a lot more – and I do!
