The Top Chef host made this tough workout look actually enjoyable. Huh!

Padma Lakshmi Dishes on Her New Short Hair

Padma Lakshmi appeared to be flying in a video clip she recently shared on Instagram. The Top Chef judge let fans inside her workout routine — which incudes hoisting herself up in the air — and now we're inspired to book the next Pilates class we can find. 

How to Watch

Watch Top Chef on Bravo and next day on Peacock.

In the video, Padma looks like a total champ as she demonstrates her moves on a Pilates reformer with overhead bars. In a sleek, black-and-white outfit, the famous foodie first demonstrated a one-legged lunge of sorts. Next, she shared the clip that showed her hanging from the overhead bars, doing full-body pull-ups and holding a pose that defied gravity. No big deal. 

The workout looks equal parts fun and grueling, which is not a terrible way to burn calories. Take a peek (and be sure to scroll through the photos!) 

Putting in work 💪🏽🍑 #mondaymotivation #pilates #ilikeit

In the caption, Padma wrote: "Putting in work," and added a peach emoji. And for once, we have a feeling that she wasn't alluding to a dish or providing recipe tips with that fruity sign. 

Work it, Padma!
