Erika Jayne in Two-Piece Workout Gear Does a Deadlift

Erika Jayne is grinding at the gym in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star shows off her amazing body during a gym session, doing a variety of exercises. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits. 

Erika once told ExtraTV that dancing helped her lose weight. "There's nothing like dancing and putting on a show and a little bit of stress to get you right back into shape," she said about how she prepared for Bet It All On Blonde. Dancing is a great workout for many reasons. Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.

Erika also attributes her weight loss to menopause treatments. In the first episode of season 13, Erika told the ladies that she had lost weight since the season 12 reunion due to taking "hormones" for menopause. She added to Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live in August 2023: "I lost weight I did it hormonally," she said. "…I was going through menopause, so, I took it all down."

Erika told the Associated Press in August 2023 that she also took up some healthy habits and gave up some bad ones. "I went through menopause while I was going through all this other stuff. I gave up drinking, worked out," she said. "And you know what? I took it up with my doctor, changed up my hormones, and, yes, I've lost a lot of weight, and I feel good about it."

Erika sticks to a healthy eating plan focused around protein – however she does allow herself cabs as well: "My breakfast is egg whites, avocado and grilled tomatoes. Lunch is usually some type of chicken and then for dinner… I like to eat. I'll eat pasta even though I'm not supposed to," she told EOnline.

Erika also hits the gym. In her latest Instagram Stories, she does a few strength and weight training exercises, including push ups and deadlifts. 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
