Cristina Mackey is showing Rick Ross what he is missing! In a new social media post the rapper’s former flame flaunts her insanely fit figure – including her impressive six-pack, while promoting her fitness brand. “Welcome to MackeyBody World,” she captioned the Instagram post, eliciting a major response from her followers. “The baddest, always have been, and always will be,” one commented. “Natural & she body goals,” added another. How does the personal trainer approach health and fitness? Here is everything you need to know about her routine.

1. Strength and Weight Training

Cristina spends a lot of time at the gym. Her main fitness form is weight and strength training. She even has her own exercise bands. 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

2. Boxing

Cristina also boxes. Harvard Health maintains that boxing is a great way to build strength, improve balance, posture, hand-eye coordination, boost mood and endurance, and helps increase alertness.

3. Mackey Body Board

Cristina claims that her “Mackey Body Board” helps “break down fat so that you can build up muscle and then emphasize that muscle when it does come in.” She adds that it “helps contour, it helps create shape.”

4. Hydration

Because she works out so much, Cristina replenishes her body by hydrating. According to the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine men should drink about 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of fluids a day and women about 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) of fluids. The Mayo Clinic explains that hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

5. Stretching

Cristina makes sure to stretch, especially post-workout. “Did you stretch today?” she asks in one of her videos. “Stretching keeps 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.”

Posing in her new workout gear on Instagram, Henry is clearly a force to be reckoned with in the gym. She built her community of 7.6M followers, aiming to inspire others to get their fitness goals in check. She’s a content creator, fitness fanatic, model, and influencer inspiring others to take care of their health, as well. What exactly does Katya do to stay fit? Here are some of her secrets to keeping herself in tiptop shape.

1. She uses dumbbells

You don’t always need a gym full of massive machines or intense equipment to see results. She does her strength training using dumbbells at times. “Limited equipment at your gym? here’s my fav [dumbbell] 🍑 workout @wbkfit,” she said on Instagram. According to the Mayo Clinic, “strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

2. She does light cardio

She avoids actually resting on rest days, but instead takes it easy a bit. “On rest days.. we don’t rest! we do light cardio and core ❣️these are my staple deep core exercises I’ve been doing for the last month to snatch my waist and fix my diastasis recti/ab separation ✨mommy tummy✨ @wbkfit,” she said.

3. She started the All About Me Era

She finds the humor in life, made clear by her poem. “May the booty get fatter and my stomach become flatter. Amen. Keeping active up until my All About Me Era begins on January 15th 💫 I can’t wait. @wbkfit,” she said on Instagram.

4. She goes easy on herself in her body is recovering

She recognizes when her body needs a break. “Today’s first official workout back! 6 weeks post breast augmentation and I’m finally ready to get back to it, taking it easy still, I’ll be sticking to machines first few workouts. Started with some bands, jumped into some machines for the legs n booty, cooled down with some stair master (my fav) and ended with a few deep core exercises bc I promised myself that everyyy day I’d work this mama of 2 tummy ☺️💪🏽,” she said on Instagram.

5. It’s not just about the booty gains
