She won’t skip meals in front of her family
While Beckham once told Vogue she’d skip meals to fit into a tight dress later, as a mom she makes a point to go without food while eating with her family. She told Glamour she’s adopted a positive attitude toward food.
“You realize they notice everything,” Beckham said. “I would never sit down with my kids and skip a meal. You need to show little people how to be healthy and happy with who they are,” she explained.
Beckham watches TV on the treadmill
When she’s not enjoying healthy meals with the occasional glass of red wine or tequila or working, Beckham can be found on the treadmill watching TV. The designer starts her mornings off with exercise by doing a “mix of uphill fast walking, jogging, running,” she told Women’s Health. “That’s the only time I watch TV – boxsets, documentaries – so I look forward to that,” Beckham said.”
After cardio, she’s not done. Beckham continues with strength training.
She continues for at least another hour on other aspects of training. Beckham does “30-minutes legs, 30-minutes arms, toning and conditioning, then loads of planks and that kind of thing for my core,” the designer said.
After her intense gym session is over, Beckham goes on with the rest of her day whether that means dropping her kids off at school, heading to the office, or traveling. While the time she spends in the gym might seem excessive to some, the mother and business owner works especially hard in the gym because she asks a lot of her body.
“I expect a lot from my body – I’m 44, I’ve got four kids, I work a lot, I travel,” she told the publication at the time. “For me to do all that, I have to eat healthily and work out.”
