"I love sports, I love being active, I love challenging myself," Spencer told ABC. "I was a jock growing up from the time I could walk." So she was shattered when told she needed a hip replacement. "It was so upsetting," Spencer said. "I waited for a long time before I did anything about it or told anyone because it sounds like it's an old person's problem and I just couldn't believe it." "It was embarrassing to share and then I realized there is nothing to be embarrassed about," she said. "I have a genetic predisposition for this but if you're athletic and you move, it's happening younger and younger." After the surgery, she said she's "feeling great."

"​​I eat what I want, in moderation. I gravitate toward fresh veggies and clean foods, thankfully, but I am also a sucker for a cupcake every once in a while. I make sure to eat lots of kale, broccoli, blueberries, strawberries and spinach. We do enough stories on superfoods on GMA. I know what I should be eating, and I really try to stick with that," she told Parade once.

"I enjoy swimming laps—it's a great workout and also allows me to get into a meditative state so it's very relaxing. I love the quiet and the rhythm of swimming. I do it quite a bit in the summer, but not very much in the winter," she told Parade. 

"I turn to yoga, preferably in a warm room, during the cold months. I do yoga year round but find myself craving it more in the fall and winter. I am really into paddle boarding at the moment, too. It's an incredible workout for the arms and core, and a great way to get out on the water," she told Parade.

"Last but certainly not least, I play tennis year round. I am on a USTA team and just got bumped up to a 4.0 rating so I am really excited. As a former athlete, I love the competition. I play both singles and doubles and would play every day if I could! I wish I had known about tennis as a kid. Unlike platform diving, it's a sport I can play for the rest of my life," she told Parade.
