In the Instagram Reel she perfectly executes a key kettlebell move, proving to her millions of followers that she is strong and hardcore when it comes to fitness. What is the exercise responsible for her cut arms? Celebwell has the details.

1. Karrueche’s Exercise: Kettlebell Gorilla Rows

In the clip, Karrueche squats down and does kettlebell gorilla rows. “Gorilla Rows are a great Bent-Over-Row exercise variation that target the muscles of the upper back, including the lats, rhomboids, and trapezius, as well as the shoulders and biceps,” explains the Fitting Rooms London. “They also help develop core stability and lower body isometric strength as the movement requires holding a static hip-hinge whilst rowing unilaterally.”

2. Here’s How to Do Them

Here’s how to do the move, according to the gym. Position two kettlebells of the same weight side-by side. In a mid-wide stance squat down and hinge your body forward, reaching for the bells without arching your back. Grip both and row one elbow back, aiming for your belly button. Repeat with the other arm.

3. She Works Out Three Times a Week

Karrueche exercises “at least three times a week,” she told Muscle & Fitness. In addition to weight lifting she does barre workouts. “Barre is good for the thighs and the booty, and I’m all about the booty. I also work with a trainer in the gym. I use machines. I do squats and sumo squats with the bar on my shoulders, and lunges with dumbbells. I’m tiny, so I don’t want to use too much weight. I don’t want to be a little stick with muscle.”

4. She Also Does Yoga

“I do really hot yoga, like 110 degrees,” she reveals, noting that she loves Hot 8 in Los Angeles. — A California-based yoga studio chain that provides different styles of hot yoga, incorporating free weights and cardio exercises. “Hot 8 increases stamina and strength and provides a total body workout,” she told HollywoodLife.“I love that it isn’t just a workout. I can also detox my skin, my face, my body, just everything. It just makes me feel so good and powerful. Not only are you cleansing your body and your face, you’re just stretching and you’re flexible.”

5. She Makes Sure to Hydrate

Because she exercises so intensely, Tran prioritizes hydration. “My one thing is, I drink lots of water,” she told HollywoodLife. “I know it sounds cliché, but I try to drink big bottles of water. I try to drink at least one a day, or two, but it should be three per day, so three liters a day.” According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

1. Hot Yoga and Weight Training

Tran trains at least three times a week. “I do hot yoga and barre classes,” she says. “Barre is good for the thighs and the booty, and I’m all about the booty. I also work with a trainer in the gym. I use machines. I do squats and sumo squats with the bar on my shoulders, and lunges with dumbbells.”

2. No Red Meat

Tran sticks to a vegetable-rich diet with plenty of water. “I cut out red meat and pork,” she says. “I want to be slim thick: slim but still kind of thick at the same time. Because if I go on a strict diet, I become too thin, and I lose all the fat in my body. I’ve been eating more vegetables. I love kale now. Oh, and I drink lots of water. Water’s like my best friend.”

3. Building Up Glutes

Tran trained for her role as a dancer on TV show Claws. “We wanted to build the booty up and make my stomach flat,” she says. “But I didn't want to be perfect—we're all real women. We're not perfect. I worked hard, but I wanted to look realistic."

4. Squats and Resistance Bands

Tran learned to enjoy exercises she never liked by working with a personal trainer. "I wasn't into training or working out before this,” she says. “Now I like squats; I like working with the resistance bands. I really like working with someone one-on-one!"

5. Simple Beauty Routine

Tran’s beauty routine is simple yet effective. “I’m a shower person. Even if I showered at night and I’m going to the gym in the morning, I’ll do a quick shower in the morning,” she says. “So I’ll wash my face with Tatcha Rice Wash. Let’s just say it’s a regular day, and I’m not doing a photo shoot or anything like that. I’ll use the Dior Capture Totale Serum and the moisturizer together. That’s kind of it!”

Cydney Moreau is a fitness influencer and new mom who is easing back into her workout routine after giving birth. In a recent Instagram video, Moreau showed off her impressive kettlebell workout, wearing black spandex shorts and a cropped black tee, while sharing how she’s returning to her fitness regimen. Moreau has been open about staying active during and after pregnancy, incorporating pregnancy-safe workouts and Pilates into her routine. Now, she’s focusing on light weights and kettlebell exercises to regain her strength. As a busy mom, she’s mastered the art of multitasking, even squeezing in workouts in between daily tasks. Beyond the gym, Moreau loves outdoor activities like playing basketball, keeping her active lifestyle varied and engaging.

1. Kettlebell Workouts

Moreau is showing fans how she’s returning to her schedule after recently having a baby. Wearing black spandex workout shorts and a tight black cropped tee, the new mom showed off her kettlebell workout in an Instagram video with the caption, “Finally back to my regular workout routine. Kettlebell exercises can target many different muscles and be a full-body workout. “Kettlebell training provides a low-impact, full-body workout that strengthens muscles and improves cardiovascular health,” according to Shape.

2. She Uses Light Weights

Wearing a barely there red bikini, Moreau worked out using light weights and captioned her post, “Multitasking as a momma." According to Prevention, using light weights has the following benefits:

-Lowering body fat. “With consistent light lifting, your body will look leaner and more toned, and your clothes will fit better.”

-Preserving muscle mass. “Light lifting can slow the decline.”

-Improve bone density. “Using weights encourages cells to form new bone to offset age-related declines in bone mineral density.”

3. She Did Pregnancy Safe Workouts

Throughout her pregnancy, the influencer did pregnancy-safe workouts and shared a video of them and a 21-day challenge she completed. “I am 39 weeks pregnant and using the @bodi app for my everyday workouts. The Bodi app is perfect because I can just open up my phone and do a work out wherever I am. I am able to modify the workouts and make sure I stay on track. Let me know if you guys try this work out!”

4. She Does Pilates

Wearing a cute pastel-colored dress with shorts underneath, Moreau showed off her Pilates skills. Pilates is a fitness trend that’s here to stay and one that should not be ignored. According to the Cleveland Clinic, Pilates has several health benefits, including improved muscle tone, flexibility and strength, pain relief, better posture, and balance and coordination. “The nearly century-old practice of Pilates provides a low-impact, full-body workout that could be a great addition to a well-balanced exercise program,” the site stated. “While the research on the health benefits of Pilates isn’t definitive, it suggests Pilates can positively impact your physical and mental health.”

5. She Plays Basketball

In addition to hitting the gym, Moreau enjoys being active outside and playing basketball. Over 450 million people worldwide play basketball, making it one of the most popular sports. Besides burning calories, it’s also a great cardio workout for your heart. According to StyleCraze, “Basketball is one of the best exercises for heart health! Because you keep moving, your heart rate increases. It also helps in building endurance, which is important when you want to make sure that your heart is healthy. It will help lower the risk of stroke and heart disease later in your life.”

"Diets don't really work for me," she says. "I want to be fit and have some meat on my bones. I stopped eating carbs and red meat for a month and a half, and I was like, 'Oh, no, I lost my butt!' I have to eat potatoes and rice and meat to bulk up. But I do try not to eat too much fast food,” she told Glamour about her diet. “I’ve been eating more vegetables. I love kale now,” she added to Muscle & Fitness.

Karrueche believes in the occasional indulgence. “In-N-Out Burger used to be my cheat meal,” she told Muscle & Fitness. “I love In-N-Out, but I don’t eat red meat anymore, so I’ll get the grilled cheese. It isn’t as good as a cheeseburger, but it’ll do for now.”

Tran hopes to inspire others by sharing her workouts on social media. "I love reading the comments and seeing someone say, 'This just motivated me to go to the gym today,'" she told Glamour. "It benefits us all to motivate others." To stay motivated: "No.1: Again, start with what you can do. No. 2: Don’t think you have to run a marathon or be an elite athlete. No. 3: Build exercise into your day. Take the stairs or park in the back of the parking lot. No. 4: Schedule exercise into your day as if it were an appointment. No. 5: Get a workout buddy. And No. 6, which is key," says the Mayo Clinic.
