Brooke Burke is recapping her weekend and challenging her followers to a workout. In a few new social media posts the fitness guru shows off her flat abs and fit figure in workout wear. “Weekend recap. Cheers to us🍾🥂🌹🌷🩷 everything’s coming up roses #girlfriends,” she captioned one of the Instagram posts. In another, she shares a workout. “Do this plank challenge every other day this week,” she captioned the Instagram Story clips. How does the 52-year-old keep herself fit and healthy? Here is everything you need to know about her routine.

1. Here Is Brooke’s Plank Challenge

Brooke recommends doing the following exercises 10 times each and repeating the set three times.

• Plank crunch
• Plank spider
• Plank twist
• Plank lunge tap

2. Mediterranean Diet

Brooke recently explained to Celebwell that she avoids fad diets, because she maintains a healthy lifestyle 365 days per year. “I don't like the word diet. It’s all about building a sustainable, enjoyable, healthy lifestyle,” she revealed to us. Instead, she sticks to a Mediterranean-style eating plan. “I have healthy fats such as olive oil and avocados, vegetables, lean proteins, beans, and nuts,” she revealed. Sometimes she will start her day with a shake. Others, she will eat a grilled salmon salad or some type of protein salad. “I love cobb salad,” she adds. For dinner, she likes fish or a filet mignon with crunchy vegetables. She also enjoys the occasional spirit. “I might have a glass of vino or, if I'm being more health conscious, a tequila-based drink,” she says. “I’m restricting my alcohol intake right now and not drinking any alcohol during the week.”

3. Intermittent Fasting

“I intermittent fast most every day,” Brooke dished to us. “I give myself a resting window of 16 hours, and I eat in an eight-hour window. It's 1:30p right now and I'm breaking my fast. I'm having a shake which is high in calories and in fat, which is totally okay. It has protein, matcha, MCT oil, dates, almond butter, one Tru Niagen stickpack, collagen powder, and cinnamon.”

4. At-Home Fitness

"I am all about the convenience of the digital gym,” Brooke says about her preference when it comes to the gym versus at-home workouts. “That’s one of the good things the pandemic taught us…we can get a great workout from the comfort anin the safety of our own homes.” This is the main reason she started Brooke Burke Body. “I wanted to create something that was accessible to everyone. It sounds crazy but you really can do short 10–20-minute, intense workouts that help you sculpt and tone your body,” she continues. “The app has workouts ranging from 5 minutes to 50 minutes and it is inexpensive at just $9.99 a month. You can even try it for free for a week. But whether it’s my app or free content you find online, take the time to get your body moving. It’s not only good for the body, but also for the mind.”

5. Body Sculpting

Brooke shares a variety of workouts on her Brooke Burke Body app. “I believe in body sculpting. I believe in movement of all kinds. I do enjoy lifting weights and cardio, but you don’t have to sweat for hours to reshape your body,” she said.

Brooke Warne is getting her sweat on – in her exercise clothes. In a few new social media posts, the influencer daughter of the late Shane Warne shows off her amazing body during a gym session, dong ab exercises and lifting weights. “A moment for how fire Brooke is lookin,” her trainer, Brittney Cutts, captioned one of the Instagram Stories clips. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. Walking Her Dog

Brooke spends a lot of time walking her dog, “The most wonderful adventure this morning 🏝️ 🩵🌈,” she captioned a photo. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

2. Strength and Weight Training

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

Brooke fuels her body with healthy food, incorporating protein, carbs, and fiber into her meals. She eats bread, potatoes, rice, and pasta, meats and chicken, eggs, and veggies. “FOOOOD! Some food I’ve made & some food I’ve eaten recently! Some new recipes coming soon, healthy eating doesn’t have to be too restrictive, eat and enjoy ❣️ 🍝 #food #cookwithbrooke #easymeals,” she captioned a post.

5. Romanian Deadlifts

In one of the Instagram Stories clips, Brooke does RDLs, aka Romanian deadlifts. “65 kgs for 2 reps this morning. Don’t mind the noises,” she writes on the video. An RDL, or Romanian deadlift is “one of the most top exercises for working the hamstrings (back of legs) and glutes (butt),” says says Kendra Gamble, HIT Fitness Training, Huntingdon Valley, PA, NPTI Certified Personal Trainer and Nutritional Consultant.

1. She Stretches

In her Instagram post, Wells is seen doing different stretches. Harvard Health states that stretching has a lot of benefits. “Stretching keeps the muscles flexible and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints. Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage.”

2. She Uses A Stationary Bike

In this video that Wells posted on her Instagram, she is seen using a stationary bike. Penn State PRO Wellness states that using a stationary bike has a lot of benefits. “Riding a stationary exercise bike is an efficient and effective way to burn calories and body fat while strengthening your heart, lungs, and muscles. Compared to some other types of cardio equipment, a stationary bicycle puts less stress on your joints, but it still provides an excellent aerobic workout.”

3. She Lifts Weights

Wells lifts a lot of weights to keep herself in shape. She is seen doing so in this Instagram video, captioning it, “Trying to stay strong.” ACE Fitness states that lifting weights is very beneficial. “Using heavy weights increases intramuscular coordination, the number of type II motor units and the amount of muscle fibers engaged within a specific muscle. Have you ever felt your muscles shaking while lifting heavy weights? This is because you are recruiting and activating the larger type II muscle fibers, which are only stimulated to work when a muscle is challenged with heavy resistance or working to fatigue.”

4. She Uses A Rowing Machine

Wells likes to use a rowing machine to stay in shape. She is seen using one in the second blurb’s Instagram link. Wells is also seen on a rowing machine in this Instagram video. She captioned it, “Girls just want to have fun.” The Cleveland Clinic states that rowing is very beneficial. “Your abdominal muscles, lower back, obliques, glutes and hamstrings all get a workout during a session on a rowing machine. If you follow proper form, your core will be engaged during every single step of the rowing process. Strengthening those muscles is also key to maintaining stability and building speed.”

5. She Does Cold Plunges

Wells likes to do cold plunges. She shared this video on Instagram of herself getting into a tub. The Mayo Clinic states that cold plunges are very beneficial. “Research on cold-water immersion has found evidence that it helps reduce the degree of exercise-induced muscle damage that can occur after physically challenging activities. Less damage leads to less inflammation, which in turn reduces soreness and helps restore physical performance the next day.”
