Shay Mitchell's workout routine is filled with variety. Here's how she stays in such killer shape.

From fitness classes to hotel gyms here's how Shay Mitchell works out.

Mitchell has tried a lot of different workouts

Mitchell told Shape magazine in 2017 that some of her favorite workouts , in no particular order, are: Pilates, boxing, hot yoga, hiking, boot camp classes, indoor spinning, outdoor biking, running on the stand, and stadium stair drills, to name a few.

The actress keeps her routine varied, constantly switching up the classes or the workout because she believes that "it's fun to confuse your muscles and do different things."

In a 2018 interview with Shape she revealed that she exercises at least three times per week and always switches up the workout routine. She credits boxing for helping her stay present: "When I'm in the ring or boxing with my coach, I really can't think about anything else, or I could get hit in the face." She likes spin class because "it's such a good sweat" and she says that boot camp classes like Barry's "force [her] to run."

Mitchell prefers group fitness classes and has done everything from aerial fitness to martial arts and says she likes classes instead of a traditional gym because the class format holds her accountable and helps her track her growth over time.

Mitchell said shell try any "safe" workout class

There is no class too adventurous for Mitchell who told Women's Health that she'll try any workout trend "as long as it's safe" and noted that she was looking forward to taking a "pool spin class" and a "trampoline class."

"I truly love all forms and all types of exercise. I love mixing things up and noticed how much energy I had when I boxed on Monday, did a spin class on Wednesday, and some sort of interval training on Thursday," she told Women's Health .

Mitchell trains like an athlete

One of Mitchell's private workout sessions from 2017 with her personal trainer "J" went viral because of the level of skill Mitchell demonstrated in her high-intensity strength training routine.

In the now-viral workout video, Mitchell mastered battle ropes while balancing on a stability ball, elevated push up burpees, standing leg presses, planks using a stability ball, leg balances on the stability ball, and leg and core plyometrics using a cable machine.

Mitchells go-to workouts combine weights and cardio

"I swear by combining weights and cardio in the same hour. I like to do cardio to start off my workout and then mix in some weights it can even be your own bodyweight. I like to do planks or lunges with a weight. But I think it's that switching back and forth that is so important," she told HelloGiggles in 2017.

Mitchell always exercises even when shes traveling

"I love checking out the hotel gyms and when I'm coming to New York I try to choose a cool boutique hotel that has a sick gym," she told Shape . "But you can also do stuff in your hotel room with just a few pieces of equipment I always bring a jump rope with me and sliders they're like furniture sliders. If I don't have weights, I'll lift stuff that's heavy. You can find a way to work out anywhere."

Mitchell tries to do three dedicated workouts a week but stays active the other days

Mitchell may work with a trainer and go to dedicated fitness classes, but she tries to spend two other days per week doing something active, even if she doesn't break a sweat.
