The essentials list: Real Housewife Teresa Giudice shares her home workout must-haves

Throughout her 14 years as the star of ' The Real Housewives of New Jersey,' Teresa Giudice has shared everything from the birth of her youngest daughter to the death of her parents. Now in its 13th season, Giudice's marriage to Louis Ruelas serves as the centerpiece around which the show's irresistible drama unfolds.

But major life events like births, deaths, weddings (and, yes, christenings) aren't the only aspect of her life that Giudice has shared with viewers. Along the way, we've also seen her participate in charity runs and Zumba classes, get her yoga certification and enter — and win! — a fitness competition, complete with posing in a sparkly bikini and high heels.

Giudice is very active in her fitness, which makes it an integral part of her television life. Underscored spoke to Giudice, a reality star and host on the podcast "Namaste B$tches," about her bridal workout, how she manages her hair, and how changing aging has affected the way she approaches fitness.

Giudice, who famously has a lot of hair, confesses that at the gym, despite what her social media shows, she is a hair-up girl. "Hair up! Hair up! Only when I'm taking a picture, then I'll put my hair down for a second just to take the photo." She switches between sporting a ponytail and hair clips, and when asked what clip she's using to hold all that hair, she says, "The biggest clip that comes."
