If you thought being a group fitness instructor looked easy, prepare yourself. On any given day, Becca Pace, a Daily Burn 365 and group fitness instructor, could be teaching up to six classes at different locations! “The class styles that I specialize in require a lot of physical demo-ing from me, since they are structured to flow much like a dance class,” Pace says. “Plus, the commute can take me from the east side to the west, uptown to downtown, and I even teach in New Jersey one night a week. You can imagine, I get hungry with all of that action!”

The secret to her survival is making sure she always has a water bottle on hand to stay hydrated. “I pretty much only drink water, with the occasional coffee and hot tea in the mix, so having a steady supply is super important—especially when I’m running all over NYC all day,” Pace says. While she relies on smoothies and peanut butter to tide her over when she needs a quick snack, Pace says it’s important for her to eat meals that will keep her full and energized.

The party’s not over after dinner, though. Pace is a self-proclaimed “huge ice cream eater,” and eats it a couple of times a week. “I have been eating ice cream since I was a little girl, and I don’t foresee that changing any time soon!”
