Danni Menzies is showing off her fit figure – in a sports bra and leggings. In a new social media post the A Place in the Sun presenter shows off her washboard abs during an intense workout circuit. "Last session in Glasgow with @chantelwilkie_fit ready to get down the road and take on London," she captioned the post. How does the 34-year-old stay fit? Celebwell has the details on her latest workout and the other health habits responsible for her amazing figure.
She Goes Running
Danni told Runner's World UK that she has been running since she was 8. "Running is an escape from London life. I live in Fulham and run 10km in a loop from Putney to Hammersmith along the Thames. I usually run two to three times a week but if I'm busy with work I'll do that route once a week and then 5-8km on the other days," she said. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. "For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories," they say.
She Eats Healthy During the Week
On weekdays, Danni keeps her diet ultra healthy. "Before every run I have green juice and a coffee, and then an omelette with avocado when I get back," she told Runner's World. "On the weekends, she cheats! "I'm a health freak Monday to Friday but I love a Domino's Pizza on a Sunday."
She Uses Fitness Apps
Danni is a fan of fitness apps. "I use Nike Running Club's running app. If I see that friends I follow have gone out and ran 7km, I'll go and do 9km. It's a great motivator and I like the training programmes you can get on them," she told Runner's World.
She Does Reformer Pilates
"I do reformer pilates," Danni told Daily Star UK. "I'm a bit of a fitness freak from Monday to Friday and then I party at the weekend."I'm good at keeping on it Monday to Friday. I'm pretty health conscious." Should you do Pilates? The Mayo Clinic confirms that there are lots of benefits to the workout, as it "strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility resulting in improved overall health. It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.
She Also Does Yoga
"I try to do a lot of Yoga as well. I find it helps space doing exercise," Danni added to Daily Star UK. "It makes you feel good as well as put your head in the right place too." There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. "Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood," they said. "People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating."
