She Has Support

Hogan has a lot of supportive people in her life. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. "The last few months for me have been difficult, mentally and emotionally.

Hogan also talked about the importance of staying motivated in the previous post's caption. "If you know me personally, you know I'm not a gym rat but I've always been an athlete.  I have to remember my roots and where I came from and let that be my motivation to be the best version of me. Just remember, you have to start somewhere and it takes 21 days to create a habit. I want to be better and I want to be the best version of myself because that's what I deserve and that's on periodt (PS I've never squatted in my life and I pushed 135lbs. Thanks @woodsisthegoods for the spot."

She Lifts Weights

In her Instagram post, Hogan is seen lifting a barbell. ACE Fitness states that lifting weights has a lot of benefits. "Lifting heavy weights elevates levels of anabolic hormones—specifically testosterone, growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1)—which are used to repair muscle fibers damaged during exercise. This helps the muscle fibers to become thicker and capable of generating higher levels of force."

She Does Squats

Hogan is seen doing squats with a barbell in her Instagram post. According to Piedmont, doing squats has a lot of benefits. "Squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back."

She Wants To Stand On Her Own

Hogan talked about her career and what direction she wants it to go in with Rosa's Taco Vlog. Hogan says that she wants to be known for what she does, not what someone else does. "At IMPACT, I was there for four years, and I was always in storylines, I was always somebody's best friend. I never got a singles run, a title, which is something that I really wanted before I left, but I didn't get it. I got to wrestle Mickie James for the title at NWA, which was cool, amazing, so grateful. That's my idol. I couldn't believe it, it took me leaving IMPACT to get a title shot, but it's against Mickie James, so I'm grateful. I was always somebody's best friend. I was Allie's best friend, Jordynne's best friend, Madison Rayne's best friend. Can I be by myself? Am I not strong enough to be by myself? Am I not a strong enough character? What is it? That's why I changed my character to try and do something different and not the same ol' same ol'. 'Maybe I'm stale.' I tried to switch it up."
