Laysla De Oliveira: From Yoga Enthusiast to Action Star
Actress Laysla De Oliveira recently gave fans a glimpse into the intense world of her latest show, "Lioness." In a social media post, she shared a clip of herself, clad in a workout set, showcasing her incredible physique while engaging in training sequences.
"CRUZin at @tarantactical 💥All new episode of @lionesspplus out today❤️🔥," she captioned the post, teasing the latest installment of the action-packed series. De Oliveira’s transformation for the role is remarkable. Before landing the demanding part, she described herself as a "yoga girl."
"I was just a yoga girl before this," she told Who magazine.
Her dedication to fitness paid off. She underwent rigorous training at Unbreakable, a Los Angeles gym, mastering hand-to-hand combat and strength training. The intensive regimen included wrestling with adult men, a challenge that De Oliveira conquered with impressive results.
"They put me through a lot of training," she said. "It was incredible. By the time I was done, I was feeling pretty invincible."
The training took approximately three months, pushing her limits and transforming her physique.
While intense workouts are a key part of her routine, De Oliveira acknowledges the importance of mindfulness and balance. Yoga, a practice she engaged in before her action hero transformation, emphasizes mindful eating and can lead to a healthier relationship with food, according to Harvard Health.
De Oliveira’s commitment to wellness extends beyond the gym. She’s a coffee enthusiast, often sharing pictures of herself enjoying a cup. "Good morning, I just wanted to say that a good hand model never reveals her secrets 😏🤍," she captioned a photo of herself enjoying her morning brew.
The Cleveland Clinic highlights several benefits of moderate coffee consumption. It can sharpen memory, elevate mood, improve reaction times, and boost overall mental function. Additionally, coffee’s antioxidant properties may offer protection against diabetes, neurologic diseases, cancer, and depression.
Apart from her gym sessions and caffeine ritual, De Oliveira incorporates walking into her daily routine, often accompanied by her dog.
"Lately," she captioned a photo of herself strolling with her furry companion.
Regular brisk walks have been linked to a reduced risk of serious health problems, including heart disease, cancer, dementia, and even death, according to a study published in JAMA Internal Medicine.
Evenings sometimes find De Oliveira enjoying a glass of red wine.

While indulging in moderation is key, the Mayo Clinic suggests that red wine, thanks to its alcohol content and antioxidants, may offer heart health benefits by potentially preventing coronary artery disease.
De Oliveira’s dedication to fitness, balanced with mindful practices and everyday pleasures, epitomizes a holistic approach to well-being.
