For Valentine’s Day this year, power couple David and Victoria Beckham both shared throwback pics of their relationship on their respective Instagram accounts – a cute reminder and indicator that their 24-year-and-counting marriage is still going strong.

The football legend’s post shows the British twosome out on a date in an undated photo from way back when.

Curious fans may be wondering what they ate on this special evening, but if we know Posh – even though it was years ago – it was probably the grilled fish and steamed veggies dish she’s committed to for a large chunk of her life. She also apparently enjoys fresh salmon with avocado.

In an interview last year, Becks spilled the beans on his wife’s special diet on River Cafe Table 4 podcast, saying she’s been eating this simple dish since they met and that she’ll “very rarely deviate away from there”.

But that’s no excuse to ever skip a workout. According to The Guardian, VB spends two hours a day exercising. Her routine consists of a 7km run, a workout with a trainer and “loads of planks”. She said that working out is “a really positive thing” for her.

2. Apple cider vinegar drinks

VB has at least one affordable trick she swears by: apple cider vinegar. In an Instagram Story, she shared her recipe, which involves mixing two tablespoons of ACV with fresh lemon squeezed into boiling water.

The fermented juice is said to help control blood sugar and help weight loss, with Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry and Hilary Duff also integrating the ingredient into their daily routine.

3. Skinade collagen peptide powder

In her interview with Net-a-Porter, Posh said that she’s “fascinated with the German approach to health”.

“I went to Villa Stéphanie in Baden-Baden a few years ago and it was incredible. I wanted to improve my work-life balance and be more mindful,” she added.

The Beckham-approved estate is under the luxurious Oetker Collection umbrella and boasts state-of-the-art facilities coupled with a “life-changing” scientific approach to food and wellness.

7. Crystals for meditating

While healing crystals are considered to be a pseudoscience, many celebrities and wellness advocates alike integrate them into their everyday routines.

VB told Net-a-Porter that she uses crystals to help her sleep and keeps a handful beside her bed. “I hold them and try to meditate and relax,” she added.

8. A simple skincare routine

Beckham takes a less-is-more approach to skincare.

“Fewer, better products are the way to go. I don’t have the time or patience to be fiddling with 10 different products at a time,” she told Glamour. Some of her go-to products include an exfoliator from Dr. Barbara Sturm, a Victoria Beckham by Augustinus Bader Cell moisturiser and 111Skin eye masks, states the same source.

9. Daily ‘green monster’ smoothie

The “Mama” singer makes sure to keep her Beckham babies in check when it comes to health, as seen in the food-related stories she shares on Instagram.

Her famous “green monster smoothie” garnered plenty of attention, and comprises of apple, kiwi, lemon, spinach and chia seeds, per Hello!

10. The Sleeping Vishnu Pose

VB makes her leg-up pose look effortless, but it takes a fair bit of practice to get that flexible.

Known as the Anantasana or the Sleeping Vishnu Pose (Side-Reclining Leg Lift) in yoga parlance, the posture requires a combination of strength and flexibility, per the Times of India.

Beckham has showed off her move on several occasions, including on the Ellen Show. The so-called “hussy pose” has also been replicated by fellow stars like Kourtney Kardashian and Kate Beckinsale.

11. What about Brooklyn’s cooking?

Victoria’s aspiring chef son Brooklyn may be getting some heat for his cooking show, but the proud mum has continually showed support for him – and may even be willing to deviate from her diet to try his recipes.

In February, she reposted a video of Brooklyn’s controversial steak soup, captioning it, “Harper is excited for me to attempt this tomorrow for dinner!”
