5. She Weight Trains

In her Instagram post, Chadwick is seen weight training.

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is training for the Paris Olympics. In a new social media post the Jamaican track and field star, 37, shows off her fit figure and determination while on the track. “Momentum takes you forward!🚀,” she captioned the post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. She’s “Not Very Strict” About Her Diet

“I’m not very strict about my diet,” Shelly-Ann confessed to Forbes, She eats pasta, rice, dumplings and bananas. “I eat ground provisions because I am forced to,” she laughs. “My husband says I need to eat them.” She also likes chicken and saltfish. “My coach has always said, as an athlete, as I travel all over the world, I am not eating for taste, I am eating to compete. I’ve seen athletes go to meets and they can’t get what they want so they won’t eat. I will eat whatever is there,” she explains.

2. Training at Least 7.5 Hours a Day

Prior to her Forbes interview, Shelly-Ann worked out from 4:30 am until 9 am. But she wasn’t done. After the interview she headed to the gym for two more hours.

3. Strength Training

Shelly-Ann does a lot of strength training. “All the motivation I need,” she captioned a video. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

• Develop strong bones
• Manage your weight
• Enhance your quality of life
• Manage chronic conditions
• Sharpen your thinking skills

4. Her Son and Husband Are Her “Strength”

Shelly-Ann was the oldest woman -- and first mom ever -- to win the 100-meter title at World’s. “A victory for motherhood!” she said, according to the AP. "My secret is just staying humble and just know who you are as a person and athlete and just continue to work hard," she told CNN. "It's a wonderful feeling having my son witnessing this.” She added: “Zyon and my husband have been my strength. When everybody else doubted me, they never did. It’s down to them that I am here again.”

5. Running

As a track star, Shelly-Ann has to run a lot. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.

Elite long distance runner Kara Goucher may not be competing in the Olympics, but she’s still training as if she is. Goucher, 45, shared a picture of herself wearing shorts and a blue sports bra, smiling her way through an intense workout. “Y’ALL- I am having a case of the Mondays!! One bright light today- got to workout with @kinesisintegrated. Had to switch gears with my sore knee but still got some work in- and thankfully some laughs. Good grief- I need more laughs!!! Hang in there people! ❤️” she captioned the post. Here’s how Goucher is living her best life in her 40s.

1. Happy Place

Goucher is still passionate about running, even after being diagnosed with dystonia. “It’s still my happy place, meditation; I feel so happy in movement,” she told The Washington Post. “I have this rare neurological movement disorder, so I can’t run as much as I want. But I am in a pretty good place right now where I’m running most days. And I still love running so much. Some people would call it an obsession. But truly, it’s not a chore for me.”

2. Eggs and Avocado

Goucher loves eggs, any style. "My stomach isn't usually ready for hardcore food right after a workout, which is why protein shakes are good for me," she told Well+Good. "But after 30 minutes or an hour, my stomach starts waking up and is ready to eat—and that's when I go to brunch. I love eggs and avocado, plus some toast and potatoes on the side. And I'm not discriminatory about my eggs—I'll take a good omelet, I'll eat them over veggies, or I'll have them scrambled."

3. Running Coach

Goucher has good advice for anyone looking for a running coach. “It’s just someone who’s invested with you, respects you, understands you as an athlete, understands what motivates you,” she told The Washington Post. “Some people need that challenge of, “So and so is going to beat you." And some people need, “You just need to be focused on yourself.” A coach that is flexible between athletes doesn’t necessarily treat each athlete the same way. If you have a bad day, everybody should be taking ownership, not just you.”

4. Stretching and Foam Rolling

Goucher uses a foam roller before bed. "My routine is all dynamic stretching," she told Well+Good. "I do lots of leg swings, walking and pulling my knees into my chest, or pulling my foot up to my butt, and I finish with some balance work to remind my tired body what it needs to remember as it gets fatigued at the end of a workout or race."

5. Take Your Time

Goucher wants women to take their time bouncing back from pregnancy and giving birth. “I would certainly tell women coming back from pregnancy that there is no timeline and that you should not feel pressured to return to any sort of space,” she told The Washington Post. “I like to say like, yeah, I ran [a 2 hour 24 minute marathon] less than seven months after I gave birth to my son, but then I spent the next rest of my career really being injured, healthy, injured, healthy. Faith Kipyegon, [the Kenyan middle distance runner] took a year before she started training. And she’s a world champion and the Olympic champion. So I would say really take your time and don’t feel like there’s this timeline that has to be met.”
