FITNESS:

So basically rehearsals and performances are how the Rockettes stay in shape. Hydration and taking in carbohydrates for energy is also important throughout the day. Their carb of choice? Cookies. Yep, that’s something we definitely have in common with the Rockettes. They also like chocolate coconut water. {Ed. Note: Yuck.}

We wouldn’t recommend following this regimen unless you’re doing 300 kicks per show, four times a day like these ladies do.

Rockette tip: When posing for a pic with your hand on your hip, put your thumb in front instead of in back–it makes your biceps look more toned (see example at left).
