Lola Vice in Two-Piece Workout Gear Trains for Battleground

Lola Vice, aka Valerie Loureda, is throwing some punches – in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the WWE fighter flaunts her flat abs during a training session. “Thank you @hannahgoldy for helping me train for Battleground,” she wrote about the Instagram Stories image. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. Clean Eating and Hydration

Lola focuses her diet around clean food and water. “On both training days and active recovery days I drink a lot of water and try to eat clean,” she told Vital Proteins. 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.

2. Fasted Training

Lola practices fasted training. “Every morning, I train fasted – meaning I don’t eat anything before working out. Afterward, I usually have some sort of protein, a carb and healthy fat like avocado. As for why I train fasted, I find, in my experience, it’s a great way to maintain my weight. I also feel lean while exercising.”

3. Coffee with Collagen

Lola enjoys the perks of coffee, which she spikes with collagen. “For about a month now I’ve been adding two scoops of the Collagen Peptides in my coffee every morning and I have seen a drastic change in my hair, nails and skin,” she said.

4. Yoga

Lola also does yoga. “On active recovery days, doing yoga is my go-to because it helps to release the lactic acid from my legs and the next morning I am not as sore,” she told Vital Proteins. There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood,” they said. “People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”

5. Running

In one of her latest Instagram Stories, Lola runs on the treadmill. 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.

6. Martial Arts

Lola fights for her body. “I think for women, one of the biggest things martial arts teaches you, in general, is confidence. You know, with confidence, you can do things. I’ve always been the only girl in my class, all full of men— for example, boxing— but I have the confidence to do that. For a woman who want to get started, I’d say start with boxing because I feel like boxing is a huge stress relief for a lot of women,” she explained to Muscle & Fitness.
