Lauren Conrad

Lauren Talks Physical Fitness

Fri, Jul 17

Being a Reality TV star and a bestselling author makes it hard for Lauren Conrad to spend as much time as is necessary to keep her fit form.

In the new issue of Shape magazine (she’s the cover girl for the 2nd time), the “Hills” hottie confesses that even she struggles with her body image if she doesn’t get to the gym.

Conrad explained, “I call it the ‘boyfriend layer.’ We (she and boyfriend Kyle Howard) were having more romantic dinners out, and I was exercising less.”

But Lauren has found the solution to her problem - “I just ask Kyle, ‘You feel like working out?’ It’s more fun than hitting the gym alone. We like doing outdoor stuff: tennis, bike riding, kayaking, stand-up surfing, hiking in the canyons around L.A.”
