Katie's fitness philosophy is rooted in planning, consistency, and smart nutrition. "Set a goal, then create a map of how to get there," she advises. Katie incorporates HIIT workouts, challenging her muscles with every rep, and relies on a go-to list of exercises like planks, lunges, and push-ups to stay fit.

If you want to get in shape, it takes planning says Katie. "The first thing is to set a goal then create a map of how to get there. Having something to follow every day will keep you on track. Then, take a look at your nutrition, immediately cut out soda, sugars, and alcohol," she told Squat Wolf.

Katie recommends high intensity interval training for weight loss. "HIIT workouts are the quickest way to put fat over steady cardio so implement that around 4x a week," she says. There is lots of research backing up the benefits of HIIT workouts, including body fat reduction, improved cardiovascular function, and mental health.

"Continue to push yourself in the gym. The last 5 reps of every exercise should be a challenge," Katie tells Squat Wolf. "Don't lift just to reach the rep number, use it as a baseline and push yourself. For those of you trying to lean, keep your reps around 12-15. Take before and after photos weekly."

1. Bench Mountain Climber
