Vogue Magazine followed Aldridge around in the days leading up to the taping of the show to see how she trained. According to Vogue, Aldridge starts doing 60- or 90-minute workouts three times a week two months before, and in the month before the show, she kicks it up to six days a week.

But Aldridge doesn't just go for a run everyday, she has a circuit of 6 different workouts that she rotates through to make sure she's targeting every muscle in her body.
