Is there a sense of pressure for a female DJ to keep looking fit and in shape?

Do you have any “trick” exercises you do while on the road (i.e. In the car, hotel room, etc.)?

My sister inspired me to work out. She became a personal trainer and then started doing fitness competitions, so her routines kind of rubbed off on me when we lived together in college.

I have to force myself to go to the gym. I hate it, but am always happy I went.

I really like yoga. The stair stepper is one of my favorites to really break a sweat on.

It varies depending on my travel schedule, but usually 3-5 times a week.

I go to 24hr fitness most of the time and do 20 minutes of cardio on the stair master or alternating walking/running the treadmill at incline. I do abs during every workout and have my certain days
for arms and legs.

In Vegas i started going to Randy Couture's mixed martial arts gym: Extreme Couture. I really
got into the boxing classes, which is still the best work out I have had to this day. They don't mess
around over there!

I try to keep my diet lean and colorful. When i drink alcohol, i stay away from anything fruity because they contain so much sugar.

Sushi, protein shakes, fruit, salmon. The biggest challenge is finding heathy options in airports, but
now that Starbucks sells their "Perfect Oatmeal," its always a good option when traveling.

I drink protein shakes daily. Most of the time I walk to a place in Hollywood to get them from The Body Factory.

I am a big snacker and it will help you from gorging on huge meals when you don't eat all day. Finding healthy snacks to bring with you to work or on the road is key. I usually go to whole foods where they have an entire aisle with nutrition bars and go crazy.

Not necessarily, I don't think DJ's in general are really known for being the most healthy and fit people. Times are changing and overall people are taking better care of themselves, not just to look good, but to feel good and have enough energy to do what we do long term.

I came across a trainers youtube video called "hotel room workouts" and started to apply them while
on the road. I also travel with a work out band that i can do various strengthening excersises with
and it doesn't take up much room in my luggage. I always keep a foot bag in my luggage, its a fun
simple way to get some cardio in, especially if you have someone with you.
