In a candid new interview, the Hungarian beauty, 25, reveals that while she works out incredibly hard, she still loves a good slice of pizza once in a while! As for Barbara’s health secrets, she tells HollywoodLife that it’s all about balance, having a healthy relationship with food, and focusing more on long term health.

Arms: “I try to lean my arms out with few exercises such as, side raises, overhead extensions, bicep curls, and two-arm kettle bell swings,” she says. “I try to work on my push-ups as well.” The model uses free weights with all of her arm exercises.

Legs and abs: “I always do a lot of sets of side lunges, squats, lateral plyo squats and hip extensions,” she reveals, noting that these particular exercises work best for her body. Moving onto abs, Barbara admits that she likes to start with basic sit-ups. “After that, I do everyone’s favorite — planking. I do this for about a minute, rest a bit and then I do it again one more time. I also do a lot of dumbbell side bends and crunches,” she explains.

Cheat meal(s): “To be quite honest, I don’t do cheat days or have cheat meals,” Barbara admits, explaining, “I’m in a really good relationship with food. I eat really healthy most of the time, which makes me feel my best. If I feel like having a slice of pizza or cake, I have it. It’s all about balance and intuitive eating for me . Long term health is the way to go!”
