Maya Jama is a radio and TV presenter. She is best known for hosting Love Island and Radio Oneâs Greatest Hits. Last month, Jama took a trip to Dubai, and shared some highlights on Instagram. In it, she is seen going for a dip in a pool, eating at restaurants, going to the beach, and spending time with friends. She captioned the post, âItâs whatever, feeling good, living better.â
She Does Pilates
Jama loves to do Pilates to keep herself in shape. âEveryone I know is riding the Pilates wave, so I decided to start and Iâm absolutely loving it," she told Women's Health. "I do one-to-one sessions with Marsha Lindsay at Nobu London and itâs great because it's a lighter workout but you're using every single muscle. You can also do it at midday, and it doesnât leave you drenched with sweat. Itâs the only form of exercise that I donât have to talk myself into doing, and that's a big thing for me!"
She Works Out In The Morning

Jama has a busy schedule. For this reason, she likes to get up early to exercise. "When Iâm away filming, I try to wake up early so I can fit in a workout before arriving on set. It helps get me in the zone," she told Women's Health. "I previously did a South African road trip with [personal trainer] Alice Liveing for work and she taught me that quality over quantity is key. Iâm really busy at the moment so itâs easy to just say, 'I donât have the time to work out', and quit. Alice showed me that itâs not how long you train for, but how you train that counts."
She Has A Workout Plan
Jama shared her workout plan in an interview with Womenâs Health. âBefore my trip to Australia for Iâm A Celeb, I started a vigorous summer workout plan, which consisted of three sets of burpees, jumping squats and planks (non-stop for 20 seconds then 40 seconds rest), followed by seated shoulder presses (three sets of ten reps), squats (three sets of ten reps), crunches (three rounds of 20 seconds non-stop plus a 40 second rest) and press-ups (three sets of ten reps).â
She Eats Healthy
Jama makes sure to eat healthy. She is seen enjoying fish and pasta in her Instagram post. Jama talked about her diet to The Telegraph. "Iâm rubbish at cooking, so I swerve the kitchen unless my brother is staying or Iâm having a dinner party. Lunch is always a pasta pot with a Greek salad, simple stuff. I eat a lot of carbs and enjoy meat or fish with potatoes and salad.â
She Swims
Jama likes to swim to keep herself in shape. She is seen enjoying time in the pool in her Instagram post. The Mayo Clinic states that swimming has a lot of health benefits. âSwimming is often touted as a great workout for all ages, offering benefits not only for the body, but also for the mind. As a form of exercise, swimming keeps your heart rate up and builds muscle strength. It also can be a great form of stress relief.â
