Binky gets her exercise over with first thing in the morning. “I get up at 7am and I make India’s breakfast and then take her to nursery. After that, I squeeze in an hour or 40-minute workout in my gym or with my personal trainer, Tyrone,” she tells Health & Wellbeing. “It starts the day for me perfectly. It gives me those happy endorphins and means I’ve got more energy; I feel more positive.”

Binky loves intense strength and weight training sessions. “I do high intensity bodyweight workouts nearly every day with Tyrone,” she tells Health & Wellbeing. “We mix it up with strength and high intensity because I like getting a sweat on. Tyrone does yoga and Pilates too, but I’m more of a ‘go for it’ girl.”
3. She Eats Protein and Veggies

Binky doesn’t eat a lot of carbs. “I don’t really have breakfast, instead I have an early lunch. Usually that’s salmon or meat with loads of veggies,” she tells Health & Wellbeing. “I eat chicken and fish and try not to have too much red meat. For dinner, I usually have a salad-based protein meal. Max, my partner, and I love our spice and we do quite big portions.

Walking is also a “massively,” important part of her routine. “When Max and I haven’t got anything on at the weekend we do a long a three-hour walk,” she tells Health & Wellbeing. “It’s so good for your health and your mental wellbeing. Getting out there; getting some fresh air – I love it!
5. She Takes Baths
Baths are part of Binky’s self-care routine. “Good morning,” she captioned an early AM soak in the tub. How can baths do your body and mind good? They have been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.
6. She Does Pilates
Binky also does pilates. “It’s all about the last minute WEDMIN atm!! All very exciting ( and a little stressful ) so I’ve decided to hang out here for a bit this morning!” she captioned an Instagram photo of herself on a reformer. “The nicest stretch EVER!”
7. Fitness Makes Her Happy
Exercise isn’t a chore for Binky. “For me, [fitness] is a routine, it keeps me happy, it keeps me strong and I've built it into my lifestyle. It's not my job, it just keeps me happy. My child is my priority and I've got to work, I've got a lot of balls in the air I'm juggling and that is just something to keep all those balls in the air,” she tells Women’s Health.
