'Exercise is my stress reliever!': Flip Or Flop's Christina El Moussa explains how running and yoga have helped her cope with painful split from Tarek
Christina El Moussa showed off an incredible bikini body on Thursday.
And the next day the 33-year-old reality star told People how she keeps in such toned shape.
'Exercise is my stress reliever,' said the Flip Or Flop star who split from her husband of seven years, Tarek, several months ago. 'There is nothing like a good three-mile run for me to really clear my head and get my endorphins going.'

And the designer has another routine that does her body good.
'My other go-to is yoga,' she said.
'I have the most amazing private instructor who has changed my life.
'Our sessions are very spiritual and have really helped me cope with my divorce and other emotions I’m going through during this time.'
She revealed she practices yin yoga. That involves meditation.
'I love it so much, it’s inspired me to take a trip to Bali this summer. I can’t wait!' she said.
And the TV icon also said she has taken up Orangetheory.
Orangtheory are 'high energy, coach-led workouts,' according to studios' website.

The designer seemed to be in great spirits after a rough 2016 that included her split from Tarek, 35, who has been battling cancer. They were wed for seven years. He filed for divorce in January.
She also recently split from contractor Gary Anderson.
'Christina is single and being in a relationship is the last thing on her mind,' her rep told Us Weekly in February.
'She is taking this time to focus on her children and herself,' it was added.
This posting comes after a report from TMZ this week that the estranged couple are seeing a life coach to help them with their split.
The stars met with Tim Storey for dinner in Orange County on Monday.
The meeting was reportedly Tarek's idea, as Storey has already been helping him deal with the divorce.
He wanted to speak with his ex about co-parenting and remaining friends. However the site claimed a reunion was definitely not on the cards.
The dinner was not recorded for their reality show.
The motivational speaker and author has also helped stars such as Robert Downey Jr, Kanye West, Charlie Sheen and Christian Slater.
