In a new social media post the Cheer alum shows off her amazing body in two-piece exercise gear during a rigorous workout. She shared the video via her Instagram Stories. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
1. Ice Skating
Jamie enjoys ice skating. “Banff, I ❤️ you,” she captioned a post, which included a photo of herself skating. According to Harvard Medical School, ice skating will burn up to 200 calories per hour. It is also great for joint and muscle health and helps improve balance and coordination.
2. Horseback Riding
Jamie also rides horses. On a recent trip to Colorado she took part in some equestrian activities. “We’re having a great time, thanks for aspen,” she captioned a post. According to the American Heart Association, riding horses is great for your health. Not only does it boost cardiovascular health, but builds core strength, burns calories, and lowers blood pressure. It is also great for your mental health as it helps relax you.
3. Coffee
Jamie is a coffee drinker. 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.
4. Walking

Jamie makes sure to get her steps in. “Me, getting all dressed up to go on my 7th walk of the day,” she joked in a recent caption. 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.
5. Strength Training
