Heather Martin is from San Diego, California, and rose to fame from her time on The Bachelor (the 23rd season). She's a thrill seeker, loving a good adrenaline rush, but can also just hang on the beach. “Sweet summatime,” she said on Instagram, posing on the beach in her suit. What else does she do to keep herself looking fit and feeling healthy? Here’s what we found.
1. She takes care of her hair
She spends time in the water and in pools, so she takes care of her hair. “Lots of travel, chlorine from pool, damage from being out in the sun more, etc. takes a major toll on my hair. I recently started incorporating @nexxushaircare Unbreakable Care line from @costco and have been lovinggg it! It’s affordable and allows me to continue to enjoy all my fun summer activities without the worry of hair breakage ruining my vibe,” she said on Instagram.
2. She enjoys horseback riding
She takes off, riding a horse, racing into the distance. She goes on to post, “back in my happy place,” with a beautiful horse. As seen on heart.org, “a study commissioned on behalf of the British Horse Society found that horseback riding is indeed a good cardiovascular workout. Even just a half hour of riding is considered “moderate exercise,” said BHS PR executive Megan Hawkins, “while trotting exerts more energy than playing badminton.”
3. She eats well
She eats well and gets help through Zen Foods. “Day in the life: morning routine 👊🏼☀️ mornings have become my absolute favorite part of the day! Everything is just so much more peaceful,” she said on Instagram. “& the best morning surprise is finding out what I’m going to eat that day with my @zenfoods daily delivery (seriously feels like Christmas morning every day hehe). I love the fact that it is freshly prepared and tastes like I am eating at a healthy restaurant but just at home! And it’s heated in the microwave ready to eat in minutes. Another part that I really love is that you have a designated consultant that is assigned to you to help you set up your program based your goals and determine what meals work best for your desired calorie intake, preferences, etc!

4. She enjoys hiking
She posted a “Costa Rica recap,” on Instagram, mentioning “the only way I ever want to drink coffee again 🌊☕️, the best girls a girl can ask for 🤍, ATV/Zip line excursion, lost water in our Airbnb for two days post ATV rides so looked like this for a couple days & showered in the pool 🤪, most magical hike of my life to this waterfall,” and more. Costa Rica is an incredible country to hike through, with stunning landscapes to explore.
5. She saves room for chocolate
There’s plenty of room for chocolate. “This is heaven. ✨ #ad @dovechocolate,” she said on Instagram. “In honor of September being self-care month I treated myself to a sunset pool dip and some @dovechocolate Molten Lava Promises and let me tell ya, you need to try them. Decadent, smooth, creamy —a molten lava cake in a mini chocolate bar form 😍 absolutely delicious! If you’re in need of a moment to lift your spirits (which you are because seriously who isn’t 😉) go treat yourself to some DOVE® Molten Lava Promises chocolates 🤍 Linked in stories & bio! #DoveChocolate #DoveMoltenLava #DoveMoltenLavaChocolate #UpliftWithDoveChocolate #SelfCareSeptember.” According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, “a healthy relationship with chocolate helps you enjoy it in moderation and without guilt, rather than cycling between trying to completely avoid it and then overdoing it.”
