Bodybuilder Tiana Flex in Two-Piece Workout Gear Says "Let's Go!"
Tiana Flex is a powerhouse in the bodybuilding world, known for her impressive performances in IFBB competitions. Recently, she gave her Instagram followers a glimpse of her daily grind at the gym, where she wore sleek black workout clothes and soaked in the positive vibes. "Love the sun in our gym, @flexfitnessgympta, this time of the day. Positive energy," she captioned the post. Tiana's approach to fitness is all about pushing limits and staying disciplined, with a focus on strength training, leg day, and back workouts. Whether it's Romanian deadlifts or showing love to her furry friends, Flex is dedicated to maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle, both mentally and physically.
She Works Her Legs
Flex doesn't skip leg day. She shared her approach to her lower body workouts in the caption of this Instagram post. "So Mondays are my #quadday or my compound workout day. Leg day 1. When I train legs I like going as heavy as I can go controlled for about 15 reps. I like more volume on leg days rather than heavy low reps work. So legs go. It's Monday. A new week. No excuses."
She Works Her Back
Another body part that Flex makes sure to train is her back. She shares a lot of back workouts on her Instagram page. In this video, Flex is seen lifting a weight while leaning over a bench. She captioned the video, "#backday One of my favorites." Flex also posted this photo of herself showing off her incredible back muscles in the mirror. She captioned that post, "Not #backday, but who cares. Whatever you are training today, give it your all."
She Does RDLs
Flex likes to do RDLs to stay in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing them. Flex captioned the post, "One of my favourites for hammies and glutes." Doing RDLs can be very beneficial. ACE Fitness states, "The Romanian deadlift (RDL) is a traditional barbell lift used to develop the strength of the posterior chain muscles, including the erector spinae, gluteus maximus, hamstrings and adductors. When done correctly, the RDL is an effective exercise that helps strengthen both the core and the lower body with one move. Unlike the traditional barbell deadlift and other quad-dominant exercises such as leg presses, which place significant loads on the anterior portion of the knees, the RDL focuses most of the physical work on the muscles responsible for extending the hip and the knee from the posterior."
She Strength Trains
As you can see from her Instagram post, Flex does a lot of strength training exercises to keep herself in shape. ACE Fitness states that using weights has a lot of benefits. "Using heavy weights increases intramuscular coordination, the number of type II motor units and the amount of muscle fibers engaged within a specific muscle. Have you ever felt your muscles shaking while lifting heavy weights? This is because you are recruiting and activating the larger type II muscle fibers, which are only stimulated to work when a muscle is challenged with heavy resistance or working to fatigue."
She Has Pets
Flex is an animal lover, and owns a dog and a cat. She shared this video of the two of them cuddling on Instagram. The Mental Health Foundation states that having animals has a lot of benefits. "Caring for a pet can help our mental health in many ways, including: Increasing your physical activity. Dog owners are likely to take their pets for a walk or run every day. This can be a fun way to fit exercise into your routine. Providing companionship. Pets can give you a sense of security and someone to share the day with. Caring for them can help you feel wanted and needed."
