Marie shared one of her dinner recipes in the caption of this Instagram video. “Super Easy Din Din 🍽️Throw all the veggies in your pan first , after they are cooked, throw in your meat , cook until your meant is fully cooked and then enjoy 😋😋INGREDIENTS: Tomatoes. Onions. Mushrooms. Olives. Ground Bison.”

5. She Does Cardio

Former WWE star Natalie Eva Marie may not be competing in the ring anymore but she’s still a champion when it comes to her workouts. Marie, 39, shared a video of herself wearing black leggings and blue shirt, going for a 4-mile run with her dog. “Me and the beast got some miles in this morning 🏃🏻‍♀️🐺 and finished with a hill sprint 🥵. Sprint uphill with a Belgian Malinois and that will humble u reallll quick 😭🚀. Health is wealth!! Who got their sweat on today?!” she captioned the post. Here’s what Marie does to stay—literally!—fighting fit.

1. Meditation and Cardio

Marie gets up between 4.30-5.30 a.m. to start her day in peace and quiet. She starts the day by taking her dogs out, making coffee, meditation, and prayer. Then it’s time to work out. “I will always do some sort of cardio, whether that’s walking, boxing, jumping rope, or going on a run,” she told Ryderwear. “Health and fitness is super important to me, not only from being an athlete my entire life, but I also truly believe health is wealth. If I'm not healthy then I can’t do all the things I love. After my cardio session I will shower and get ready for the day.”

2. HIIT and Weight Training

Marie always does some strength exercises as part of her workout routine. “When I train I always do a form of weightlifting and then HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training),” she told Ryderwear. “On my subscription site, you get my workout of the day and always see a combination of both. We are all super busy with life and everything else we have going on which is why I really love HIIT training because you’re able to get amazing results in the least amount of time, making workouts super efficient.”

3. Changing Up Workouts

Marie says she changed her workouts after leaving the pro wrestling world. “In WWE, I focused more on Olympic lifting,” she told GQ. “I had to make sure that I was physically able to lift another human being at all times. Now, I’m going for a different, leaner look. High-intensity interval training and Tabata workouts are really good for me, because they prevent me from getting bored, and don't require me to be in the gym for two hours. I can get in, do what I need to do, and get out.”

4. Egg Sandwich For Fast Breaking

Marie practices intermittent fasting and usually breaks her fast with a homemade breakfast sandwich. “Right now I’m intermittent fasting which means I fast for 16 hours and then eat during my eight hour window, so I usually don’t have my first meal till 1.00 p.m.,” she told Ryderwear. “I had a 15 minute break so my first meal of the day is an egg sandwich. It’s a pretty simple meal, with two pieces of sourdough toast and two whole eggs, with an additional two egg whites.”

5. Cheat Day Champion

Marie is Mexican-Italian, and never turns down her mother’s home-cooked food. “I should just honestly film my cheat day because people would be impressed by how much food I can put down,” she told GQ. “When my husband and I first started dating, I had just started my WWE tryouts—I think I was in my third week. I went over to his place and he made banana pancakes. I really liked them, so he asked ‘Do you want another one?’ That kept going, and I swear I put down about 20 of them. I was training at the time, but also, they were that good. I do not play around when it comes to cheat days.”

WWE Star Natalya Neidhart gives the same energy to training as she does when fighting in the ring—no wonder she’s such a force to be reckoned with. Neidhart, 41, shared an intense picture of herself wearing black shorts and a sports bra, holding on to ropes. “My home away from home. @thedungeon2.0,” she captioned the post. Neidhart has developed a fantastic training and diet routine over the years—here’s how she does it.

1. No Crazy Workouts

Neidhart’s workouts are balanced and doable. “I don’t do crazy amounts of cardio. I don’t lift extremely heavy weights. I don’t beat myself up if I have a cheat meal,” she told Bar Bend. “If I can only get to the gym three days a week, that’s fine. If I get to the gym six days a week, that’s even better. I used to beat myself up if I had a cheat meal. The next day I’d be doing crazy amounts of cardio trying to burn off what I ate the night before. Now, I feel like I’ve taken all that pressure off myself.”

2. Clean and Jerk

Neidhart focuses on Olympic lifting at the gym, with her favorite move being the clean and jerk. “You’re lifting weight off the ground and you’re throwing it up, so you’re giving your body a whole-body workout,” she told PEOPLE. “And it definitely imitates us throwing people down in the ring!”

3. Training For the Fight

Neidhart’s preparation for competitions is understandably intense. “The days leading up to Wrestlemania we really watch what we eat, and I hit the gym no matter what,” she told PEOPLE. “When you’re walking out in front of 70,000 people you want to look your absolute best, because it’s not just those people that are watching you live, it’s 170-plus countries around the globe that are tuning in.”

4. Food Journal

Neidhart keeps track of her food for accountability. “When I kept the food journal in my iCloud notes, it really made me more accountable,” she told Bar Bend. “Then I would try to cut off my eating past 8 p.m. It really helped me lose weight and keep it off. I don’t need to have anything big and heavy past 8 p.m., and then when I’m on the road and wrestling, I try to keep that same thing in mind. If I need something after a match I’ll have a protein shake, or some cottage cheese, or a Greek yogurt.”

5. Supplement Queen

Neidhart is a big fan of taking supplements for health and beauty. “I’m always looking for really good supplements for my hair, for my skin, for my nails, and for my brain,” she told Bar Bend. “I love fueling my body with the best of the best. I’ve only had one surgery in 16 years. I’ve been wrestling for 16 uninterrupted years in the company, and I feel like all these vitamins and supplements help me so much. They keep bones and ligaments strong.”

Francielle Mattos, a successful bodybuilder, frequently shares her favorite workout routines on Instagram, inspiring her followers with her dedication and hard work. In a recent set of gym photos and videos, Mattos is seen posing in workout gear, performing sit-ups, hip thrusts, and using the leg extension machine. Her caption, "This is wellness," reflects her commitment to maintaining a balanced and strong body. Here’s a deeper look into how Mattos stays in peak shape.

1. She Works With A Trainer

Mattos works with a trainer to help herself stay fit. She talked about her trainer in the caption of this Instagram post. “Closing the week with training 🔥 ♥️ 💪🏼This week has yielded … At the commands of my trainer @carlosaugustogaron that today I possessed 😂😂😂Must be @growthsupplements HAZE's pre workout, I'm sure he's taking it…”

2. She Does Leg Extensions

Mattos is seen doing hamstring curls in her recent post, and the previous blurb’s post. Asphalt Green states that this exercise has a lot of benefits. “These machines provide isolation exercises for your legs. This type of exercise works only one muscle or group of muscles, which means you can build up that part of your body quickly. If you want your thigh muscles to really stand out in those shorts you just bought, the leg extension machine is for you! Leg extensions using this exercise machine work your thighs. In fact, that’s basically the only thing that they work. That’s great if you want to build strength and mass quickly.”

3. She Strength Trains

Being a bodybuilder, Mattos has to do a lot of strength training. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself using weights, including the two previous posts. The Mayo Clinic reports that strength training is extremely beneficial. “Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

4. She Works Hard

Mattos makes sure to work hard when she hits the gym. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “There is only one person who can limit his own growth. By yourself. You are the only person who can revolutionize your own life. You're the only person who can hurt yourself. It is within your heart that you will find the energy required to transform your life. Atleta @growthsupplements. What was that training 😅 😂 @carlosaugustogaron I had a bad time from start to finish, thanks friend 🤜🏻🤛🏻 Garon will leave the full workout in the comments ☝🏻”

5. She Does Hip Thrusts

Mattos is seen doing hip thrusts in her recent Instagram post, and the previous blurb’s Instagram video. Gymless states that the exercise is very beneficial. “Hip thrusts are plastered on nearly every fitness influencer’s page nowadays. Fortunately, they are a dynamic and effective exercise that has soared in popularity among fitness enthusiasts and athletes…It’s a great compound movement that targets the gluteal muscles (‘glutes’), and it’s crucial for improving lower body strength, power, and juicy lower-body aesthetics.”

Andrea Shaw is tackling leg day – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the bodybuilder shows off her amazing figure and impressive strength during an intense workout session at the gym. “Another leg day in the books. Having specific glute and hamstring focused days is something new for me as of this past prep but I’m enjoying it,” she captioned the Instagram clip. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. Her “Life Is Bodybuilding”

Andrea devotes herself to staying in shape. “There is a lot that goes into it,” she told BarBend. “My life is bodybuilding — almost exclusively for three months out of the year. I have to give it my best.”

2. She Trains Every Day

“I train every single day,” she said. “The goal is to work out seven days a week and to train each body part twice a week. The average person training is hitting a body part once a week. So, after four weeks, they’ve only trained that body part four times. If I train everything twice a week, I’ve hit that body part eight times in that same four weeks.”

3. Back Day Workout

On back day she focuses on her lower back, lats, and traps, while indirectly working her biceps. She does 10 exercises performing sets at a fast pace.

• Barbell Shrug: 4 x 8-12
• Barbell Upright Row: 4 x 8-12

• Narrow-Grip Pull-up: 2 x 6
• Bent-Over Straight Arm Pulldown: 4 x 12
• Wide-Grip Pulldown: 4 x 12
• Face Pull: 4 x 12

4. Chest and Glute Day Workout

Shaw does two chest-specific moves on these days, including the side-by-side chest press. She also does glute bridges into the workout with dumbbells and five sets of farmer’s carry.

• Flat Dumbbell Bench Press: 6 x 8-12
• Side-by-Side Chest Press: 6 x 8-12
• Glute Bridge: 5 x 8-12
• Farmer’s Carry with Dumbbells: 5 sets

5. Leg Day Workout

On leg day Andrea starts with warmups and then moves onto doing 25 total sets of a chosen exercise.For example, she might go on the leg curl machine, select a weight, and perform a single rep each, rest a minute, then do two reps with the same weight, followed by three, and on and on until 25 reps. She ends up doing 325 reps. “When I finish that, my legs are humming,” she joked.
