Workout: Work Those Abs

When AnnaLynne moved to L.A., she couldn’t afford a gym, so she tried DVDs and found belly dancing.

“When you’re shaking your booty,” she’s said, “you can’t help but feel beautiful and sexy.”

The 90210 star also takes long hikes, in Runyon Canyon in L.A., with her best friend to make exercise even more fun.
