The word ‘trailblazer’ does not do enough justice to Danica Patrick. From racing to fitness, the former race driver seems to excel at all. Everyone knows about her achievements in American racing already. She is still the only female winner of an IndyCar Series race with her victory at the 2008 Indy Japan 300. But she is equally adept even outside the track!

The 41-year-old officially retired in 2018 but continues to be a popular icon. She was in the news of late for seemingly relying on her zodiac sign to justify her behavior. This may have raised a few eyebrows. However, this time, it is her fitness regime that has drawn the attention of fans. Thankfully, she revealed a few health hacks recently.

These are ample reasons for Danica Patrick being highly regarded in all matters of fitness. Some would even argue that having a history of modeling does not hurt either.
