The 29-year-old said to Calliet, “It’s my job. I don’t want people to think that I’m also setting unrealistic standards because I can afford a trainer. I can afford meal prep. I can afford a lot of things.”
Moreover, she added, “I’m investing in my career because it’s my career to look good. Not even is it my career to look good, it is my career choice to have the kind of career that I want to have.”
Later on, Palmer shared, “I never want to put it on anybody. I always want to make it clear that when I am talking about fitness, health, and wellness is that, ‘Your journey is your journey. You figure it out the way you can.’ And when you look at these celebrities and people in the industry, know that it is their job.”
She also shared how she coping with postpartum. “It’s interesting,” the mother of one shared, “after the baby to see all the extra stuff I have to work with, and how much my fear of having extra weight actually became a strength as it pertained to weight training and working out.”
Previously, Corey talked about her fitness in May, “She’s never had a thicker body. I said, ‘Let’s tap into that. Let’s create a shape that was made by the baby. It’s turning things that are supposed to be looked at as negative into positive.”
