Influencer Sophia Peschisolido Shares Swimsuit Photo From Seychelles
Sophia Peschisolido is bumping along – in her bathing suit. In a new social media post the influencer and Love Island alum shows off her incredibly fit figure – baby bump and all – in an orange swimsuit. She is currently vacationing in the Seychelles. "The most beautiful pregnant gal," commented one of her followers. "Baby bump babe," added another. How does the mother-to-be approach health and fitness? Celebwell rounded up her top health habits.
Little Formal Exercise
Sophia claims she doesn't work out a lot. In an Instagram Q & A, she said that she rarely broke a sweat most of her life. "I never work out – I went for a run for the first time in ages the other day and almost died," she said.
Walks and Bike Rides
During the pandemic Sophia started becoming more active, going on "socially-distanced walks in the park or bike rides" with her family and her dog, Scruffy. "I go on a walk every day and do exercises in my bedroom every now and again," she told The Sun. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.
Self-Love
"I wish I could say it's been easy, but fitness and health has never been my forte."I've always had to push myself but the upside of that is that I'm starting to love the way my body looks. But I'm not obsessive," she told The Sun about self-love. "I exercise when I can be bothered but I've definitely put weight on during quarantine. It's the banana bread I keep making."
Mind Exercises
Sophia exercises her mind. During the pandemic Sophia started doing "a weekly quiz, which is fun," she told The Sun. "I have also done these with my family, who are all over the world," she added. She also does puzzles. "I recently finished a 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzle which took me four days, but it didn't relieve any boredom, so I don't recommend that."
She Stays in Her Comfort Zone
Sophia's coffee order? "Oat milk cappuccino plz," she revealed on Instagram. According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. "It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function," they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.
