Fitness Star Massy Arias in Two-Piece Workout Gear Does "hyrox EMOM wod"

Massy Arias is sharing a new workout with her followers. In a new social media post the fitness trainer and influencer flaunts her amazingly fit figure in a two-piece exercise set during a grueling sweat session at the gym. "Nothing ever grows in a comfort zone. If there is one thing I dislike most, are these kind of workouts. But how can I motivate you to be your best self, if I don't keep growing myself? This weekend I joined the queen @bethanycf to do a little hyrox EMOM wod," she captioned the post. What is the workout and what other ways does she approach health and fitness? Keep reading for details and all of her diet, fitness, and self-care habits.

Massy makes sure to stretch. "I've been sitting a lot lately so after my workout I decided to mobilize my spine before I sit again. This one stretch I find to be one of the best selections lately to really get some decompression after my workouts," she wrote in a caption. Why should you consider stretching? It helps keep the muscles "flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints," says Harvard Health. "Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage."

Massy is open about her mental health struggles. While she tried therapy and herbal remedies, she maintains that exercise was the game changer. "Fitness saved my life," she told Muscle & Fitness. She started with the elliptical machine and then bodybuilding. "That first pushup felt great!" she revealed.

Massy has a unique training style that incorporates resistance training, calisthenics, yoga, and HIIT. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

• Develop strong bones
• Manage your weight
• Enhance your quality of life
• Manage chronic conditions
• Sharpen your thinking skills

Arias drinks smoothies to satisfy her sweet tooth while treating her body to a healthy dose of nutrition. "Instead of falling for the sugary drinks with no nutritional value, let me show you how to make smoothies that cut your cravings, help build 💪🏽, and are actually good for your overall health," she writes in the caption of the Instagram video . Her smoothie is "loaded with fiber, healthy fats, and protein," and "It tastes incredible and you can treat them as a meal, a snack, or your post workout fuel," she maintains. She adds that it helps keep you "focused with sustained energy throughout the day" and will help you "feel satiated, but not bloated."
