She Doesn't Strive For Perfection

Freeman doesn't believe in striving for perfection when it comes to fitness. And she wants others to have the same attitude. She talked about this in her Instagram post's caption. "Imperfect, consistent action. The 'view' is a byproduct. It doesn't have to be perfect, and if you're waiting for perfection to put in the work, that time will never come."

She Works Hard

Freeman makes sure to work hard when it comes to fitness. She encouraged others to do the same in her post's caption. "It won't always sound good to show up. Your body won't always feel it's best. You won't always 'have time'. You'll have bad days. Hard days. Do the work anyway. You deserve to see that view! What we do best in @strengthmethod.app — join us!!! 📈👑"

She Does Pull-Ups

One exercise that Freeman is seen doing in her Instagram video are pull-ups. This exercise has a lot of health benefits. NASM reports, "Pull ups and chin ups are a multi-joint movement, meaning that they engage multiple muscle groups (lats, biceps, shoulders, and upper back). They promote overall upper body muscle development and can lead to some serious strength gains. Grip strength is critical in being able to lift heavier in a variety of exercises that require you to hold the weight, but it is also important as we age. Chin ups and pull ups challenge forearm and hand strength to help you build and maintain better grip strength."

She Uses Weights

Freeman is seen using weights in her workouts in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that using weights to exercise has a lot of benefits. "Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle's appearance."

5

She Does Lunges

Another workout that Freeman is seen doing is lunge squats with a barbell. Lunges of all kinds have a lot of benefits. According to ACE Fitness, "Lunges work the biggest muscles in your lower body — mainly the quadriceps, gluteus maximus, and the adductor magnus (the muscle in your inner thigh). Other muscles that come into play are the hamstrings, gluteus medius, calves, and core stabilizers, says Susane Pata, content strategist for the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and NASM-certified personal trainer based in Miami."
