Beth Phoenix is a very successful wrestler known for being a WWE Diva. Phoenix shares a lot of workout videos on Instagram. She recently posted a video of herself in workout gear, showing off her abs. Phoenix captioned the post, “GLAMOROUS ain’t about the makeup honey. It’s about the MOOD.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Beth Phoenix stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.
1. She Weight Trains
Phoenix shared some of her fitness secrets with WWE. “Other than eating a healthy, clean, natural diet, women shouldn't be intimidated to get into the gym to lift some weights. I know some women are afraid that if they weight train they are going to gain bulk and get really muscular and heavy. But that only happens to Glamazons. As far as weight training, it strengthens your bones, gives you healthy muscles and protects your joints.”
2. She Doesn’t Over-Train
Phoenix tells WWE that she doesn’t over-train herself. “I recommend that women eat healthy, weight train, do some cardiovascular training and as far as mental health goes, I think taking a break is important, too. Over-training can be a problem. It can definitely set you back farther than it can set you ahead. So definitely take that time to relax, kick your feet up and bask in the glow of all your hard work.”
3. She Does Squats
Phoenix shared this video on Instagram of herself doing exercises. In it, she is seen doing squats. She captioned the post, “Easy Super Set on @gopureplank …Dumbbell (or medicine ball, any object, weight, or even your sweet baby!) wide leg squat… 10 reps. Superset with… Pure Plank leg raises…SQUEEZE that 🍑 10 reps. Repeat Superset 3-4 rounds. FEEL that heart rate climb!!”
4. She Does Yoga
Phoenix loves to practice yoga. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing a pose, captioning it, “I love you coffee. And also. Here’s a quick sequence for incorporating a classic yoga pose into your @gopureplank routine. CrossFit, yoga and many of style of training can be hard on the wrists. Using the Pure Plank not only takes the pressure off of delicate wrist joints, but the stationary handles allow you to apply tension to the arms with push and pull. This activates the biceps and triceps to amp up the calorie burning!”
5. She Works Her Back Muscles

Slow torture.” She also shared these photos of herself in the gym. She captioned the post, “Adding back weights into my routine… bring on the horseshoe!”
