Jamie Hagiya is a CrossFit athlete and fitness trainer. She shares a lot of workout videos on her Instagram. Recently, she shared a video of herself doing exercises like weight lifting and jumping rope. Hagiya captioned the post, “I’ve been so STRESSED the past couple weeks, but there’s truly nothing better than some barbell therapy 🏋🏽♀️”


She Lifts Weights

Hagiya is seen weightlifting in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that doing this can lead to many health benefits. “Lifting heavy weights elevates levels of anabolic hormones—specifically testosterone, growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1)—which are used to repair muscle fibers damaged during exercise. This helps the muscle fibers to become thicker and capable of generating higher levels of force.”

She Jumps Rope

Hagiya is also seen jumping rope in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that jumping rope has a lot of benefits. “Strength-training workouts that alternate between different muscle groups can increase heart rate and provide a cardiorespiratory benefit. Adding one or more jump-rope stations to a circuit is an easy way to increase the intensity of the overall workout. If you enjoy making your own exercise circuits, add two to three minutes of steady rope jumping at the end for an additional calorie-burning opportunity.”

She Swims

Hagiya likes to swim to keep herself in shape. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself at the beach. Hagiya shared these photos from Lanikai Beach, captioning them, “Hawaii you were unreal like always. My fav place that will always have my heart. Until next time… Mahalo nui loa ❤️.” She also shared this video of herself at the Kaneohe Sandbar, and captioned it, “A rainy, cold, and cloudy day turned into the most beautiful one on the Sandbar. So glad I stayed an extra day. It was perfect ❤️”

She Plays Basketball

One type of workout program that Hagiya teaches involves basketball. She shared this video on Instagram of herself on the court. Hagiya captioned it, “My last 2 basketball clinics of the year are here! Come get some skill work in to finish 2024 off strong 💪🏽🏀 Tuesday, December 10th & December 17th 🏀 6:00-7:00PM at Jump Beyond Gym in Torrance, CA 🏀 2nd-5th Grade Boys and Girls 🏀 All Skill Levels Welcome! $30/person.”

She Rides Horses

Another thing Hagiya does to keep herself in shape is riding horses. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself riding. Hagiya shared these photos of herself about to go for a ride in the North Shore. She captioned it, “Pure happiness. Still can’t get over how beautiful these horses were ❤️” Hagiya also shared this set of photos and a video of herself and some friends riding on the beach that same day. She captioned it, “4 of my fav things… friends, horses, the beach, and Hawaii❤️”
