She Eats A Balanced Diet
ShutterstockWhen it comes to her diet, Booth is a believer in balance. She talked about this in her Women Fitness interview. “No, I don't follow any diet,” she says. “But I like to eat healthy. 6 meals a day that include a lot of fruit and veg and protein. I do have a sweet tooth, so I do indulge every now and again which is fine to do.”
She Does A Variety of Workouts
Booth opened up about some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Women Fitness. In it, she shared her favorite workouts. Booth says that she does a lot of different things to keep herself in shape. “I like to do circuit training. Also running and lots of core and stretching. I like to mix it up a little and always keep it interesting.”
She Strengthens Her Upper Body
Booth shared how she trains for golf in an interview with Best Fit Magazine. She says that she makes sure to strengthen her upper body. “It’s a balancing act, and I’m in the gym a lot, but this year I’m trying to be more focused on my golf swing too. It’s difficult because I’ve had a lot of niggling injuries, which means I am trying to strengthen those areas of the body, like my elbow, for example, and my left shoulder. A lot of the work I try and do now is focused on those areas and making them more mobile. It’s not just about strength in those areas, but also rotation and flexibility.”
She Doesn't Pressure Herself
Booth also tells Best Fit Magazine that she makes sure to not pressure herself on the course. “I think when things aren’t going too well off the course they can really affect your game on it, so I think putting a lot of issues behind me will be a weight off my shoulders. I need to not be so hard on myself; I sometimes take things too personally, so this year I’m trying to relax and enjoy myself a bit more, stop stressing over everything!”
She Has A Positive Mindset
A big part of Booth’s success on the course is due to her mindset. She tells Best Fit Magazine that positivity is extremely importance to her. “I would say more than the physical attributes, you need a good and positive mindset. You need belief. You need to be dedicated. I guess that’s the same in all sports.”
