1. She Works Hard

Matta makes sure to work hard. She talked about the importance of doing so in this Instagram post’s caption. “There’s a time for everything in life.A time to rest,to just listen to your inner voice ,and a time to stand up and fight. Sometimes you lose the way or probably you just don’t see where you’re moving to … It’s time for me to move forward…Let’s walk the path of heroes,then!”

2. She Works Her Quads

Matta doesn’t skip leg day. Specifically, she doesn’t skip quad day. Matta shared this video on Instagram of herself doing a quad exercise. She captioned the post, “My favorite quads warm up !!🤣😎(WARNING:Just for very healthy knees!😉).” According to The Cleveland Clinic, having strong quads are important. “Your quad muscles, or quadriceps femoris, are a group of muscles at the front of your thigh. Together, they contain more mass than any other muscle group in your body. You use your quads to perform a variety of movements, including kicking, running, jumping and walking.”

3. She Increases Resistance

Matta makes sure to push herself when she’s working out. One thing she likes to do is increase the amount of resistance on an exercise. Matta shared this video of herself doing that on Instagram. She captioned it, “Experimenting with part 2. Thanks to my favorite pupil @asiacallegari9 for the constant encouragement .. We keep growing, day by day, together.... ❤️😎Two versions of the same exercise, with only resistance and with higher intensity resistance and weighted ankle in the second part of the video… Give it a try and let me know! 😉 and of course.. WATCH OUT for execution 😎”

4. She Does Leg Extensions

One lower body workout that Matta enjoys doing is leg extensions. In this video she posted on Instagram, Matta is seen using the leg extension machine. She captioned the post, “Back on track …Hard training first!😎 Thanks to my amazing friend @robysidotiphotographer.” Asphalt Green states that the exercise is very beneficial. “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!”

5. She Strength Trains

Being a bodybuilder, Matta does a lot of strength training to maintain her figure. She is seen using weights in this Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic states that strength training has a lot of benefits. “By stressing your bones, strength training can increase bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories. Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities.”
