Kournikova has taken a job as a fitness guru for the magazine Elle. The star is thrilled with the job, and now has a new incentive to stay healthy and fit.
In her first article, the pretty blonde admits she has struggled to stay in shape while taking time away from tennis to correct back and foot problems.
She writes: "As I’ve shifted from an intense training schedule to a more moderate pace… I’m suddenly facing the real issues of a nonprofessional athlete – which means worrying about how often I should hit the gym and what I need to incorporate into my diet and figuring out what fitness and food combination works best for me."
