Want a bod just like Karlie Kloss? Her trainer has revealed THE secret

Ladies, you may want to sit down for this one.

According to the trainer responsible for Karlie Kloss's banging body, there's a reason we're not all rocking the same enviable abs and toned arms as the former Victoria's Secret Angel.

And no, it's not because we can't afford a personal trainer or have no willpower when it comes to Cookie Dough, it's because – wait for it – we're denying our bodies the sleep it needs.

We know! A legitimate reason for a lie-in has been passed down by the gods of good figures.

Speaking to The Cut, Anna Kaiser insists that it's important to catch enough shut-eye if you want to get in tip-top shape.

 

"I don't think anyone understands how important it is to get enough sleep." she said.

"f you have a choice where you've been only sleeping five or six hours and can sleep an extra hour or work out, sleep an extra hour."

Yep, we're struggling to breathe here too. 

"You're running your body down, which will affect your energy and hold onto excess water and weight." Anna explained. "It will make you hungrier."

So, in other words, if you're making your early-morning work-out sessions but denying yourself sleep, then you're going to eventually burn out and pile on the lbs.

"Five to six hours for a week really prohibits your cognitive and hormones functions. You really need seven to eight hours," she explained.

"Working out harder or better or eating less isn't the answer. It's about getting enough sleep," she added.

Ladies, get thee to your warm, snuggly haven.
