“There is no secret,” she says. “It’s just better eating and working out! It’s definitely a daily thing.” Sparks also revealed that she loves dancing and takes high-energy dance classes like Zumba.
“My mom’s best friend is a Zumba instructor and I loved it,” she reveals. “I started with walking then went to jogging and then Zumba.”
In addition to Zumba, she incorpates circuit training: “I started [working with a trainer] and we did 30 minutes of circuit training. So I didn’t feel like I needed to be in the gym for two hours.”
Sparks showed off her new figure on the August cover of Shape magazine. Looking great, Jordin!
