Personal Trainer

Amy was in great shape back in 2012. In one interview given to axs.com in 2012, Amy stated that she loves different styles of training such as hiking, boxing, and yoga.

However, there’s a huge transformation going on in Amy’s body (as she has gained a little bit of weight), so we can definitely say that her passion for exercising has maybe disappeared. Obviously keeping her body in shape is not Amy’s primary goal anymore.
