Lea Michele is in love... with her life and her body. Her workouts are intense ( just look at the results!), but so is her belief in treating herself to pizza, pasta, and mac and cheese. It’s all good, according to the actress. Here’s how she got to such a healthy, happy place.
And why shouldn’t she be? The 30-year-old actress is starring in the hit US TV show Scream Queens, she just finished recording her second album, and she’s enjoying being single. “I have this time to grow and focus on me,” she says.
Lea, who had never taken a fitness class before she moved to Los Angeles for Glee, credits exercise with making her happier, and definitely healthier, than ever. “The mind and body results after you do a workout you enjoy are incredible,” she says. Listen up as Lea shares her other strategies for being strong and confident.

I’ve been skinnier and I’ve been a little bit bigger, and I’m never hard on myself one way or the other. The fact that I’m active, eating well and taking care of myself is all that matters – not a number.”
NEVER BE IDLE.
“Find three workouts you enjoy so that you can choose what you need on any given day. I’m addicted to Soul cycle. I love the mentality in the room, the sense of community and the fact that it’s fantastic exercise.
