After spending years trying to live up to Hollywood’s standards of the perfect body, and even battling a year-long eating disorder when she was 17, Hilary Duff decided to shift her focus to getting strong.

She admits in the January issue of Women’s Health Australia: “Because of my career path, I can’t help but be like, ‘I am on camera and actresses are skinny. It was horrifying.”

But now, Hilary says she’s proud of her body. “[I’m] appreciating my health, doing activities that make me feel strong instead of just bettering the outside of my body. Spending time with people that make me feel good and share similar views on health and body positivity and getting enough sleep and balance in my diet.”

One person who has helped her do exactly that is her personal trainer Dominic Leeder. In this episode, Leeder shares – in detail – how he helped Hilary Duff get into the best shape of her life and maintain it, so that you can too.
