Jackie Aina is asking her followers for restaurant suggestions – in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the beauty and makeup influencer flaunts her fit figure in a mirror selfie. "Need some Nashville food recommendations," she writes across the Instagram Stories image. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Sleep
Sleep is a priority for Jackie. "I'm not a morning person and I try to get a minimum of 10 hours of sleep," she told the New York Times. She wakes up at 9 am and begins her day with a prayer. "Then, I like to have at least an hour free of social media. I read texts and emails, but try to avoid falling into the trap of endless scrolling," she says. What are the health benefits of sleep? According to the Sleep Foundation, getting enough z's is a mood booster, promotes heart health, regulates blood sugar, improves mental function, restores your immune system, helps relieve stress, and aids in weight loss.
Morning Workouts
She then heads to the gym "for my morning workout," she says. "I spend so much time at a desk and working from home that it's challenging being mobile throughout the day." One of her go-to workouts is strength training.
Cycling

She also spins. "Cycling classes grew on me this year," she adds. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis.
Limited Diet
"We have a chef who preps meals for us twice a week, working around my dietary restrictions: no pork, dairy or beef," she says about her diet. What does she have for breakfast? "I heat up today's low-carb vegan waffle, scrambled eggs and spicy chicken sausage."
Pilates

Pilates is another one of her go-to workouts. "Nothing I've ever done — even Army training — could have prepared me for Pilates!" she admits. Why is pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic there are lots of benefits to the workout, as it "strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility resulting in improved overall health." It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.
