Despite her busy schedule, Mahomes makes time for fitness and recently shared Instagram stories of herself lifting weights. She emphasized the importance of staying active during pregnancy and her lifelong passion for strength training, a habit she’s maintained since her days as a college and professional soccer player. From protein shakes to planning healthy meals while traveling, Mahomes is committed to wellness, both inside and out.

In her Instagram stories, Mahomes is seen lifting weights. She also talked about this in an interview with Eating Well. “If you know me or follow me on Instagram, you know that staying active and being in the gym has been a huge part of my life. I played soccer in college and professionally, but found that as my career was coming to an end, being in the gym was something that I remained super passionate about. I enjoy strength training and lifting weights mostly, but also walks with the kids and the dogs.”

2. She Works Hard

Mahomes makes sure to work hard when it comes to fitness. She talked about this on her fitness website. “’Training like Britt’ means many things—working hard, staying dedicated, not making excuses, and most of all, no BS! These programs are designed to tone, grow muscle, and get STRONG. Don’t be afraid to lift heavy and push yourself!”

3. She Loves Protein Shakes

Mahomes shared some of her favorite foods in her EatingWell interview. She says that she likes to drink protein shakes. “I love all of OWYN's shakes, but the Cold Brew Protein Shake and Double Shot Protein Coffee Shake flavors are my favorite and keep me going through busy days! Having a protein shake that’s free of the allergens that my kids have to avoid is important to me because I like to supplement my diet with extra protein and it gives me such peace of mind knowing that I can enjoy the shakes around them without having to worry.”

4. She Brings Healthy Food With Her

Mahomes shared her secrets to eating healthy while traveling with EatingWell. “I’ve learned that the best way to avoid any issues while traveling is to be prepared and plan ahead. We take the initiative to bring all of our own snacks, which can take a little more effort. We travel with a small cooler to make it easy and keep things fresh! It’s stocked with protein shakes for me for an easy protein boost on the go, plus whole-food snacks for the kids like fruits, veggies, pouches, etc.”

5. She Uses A Facial Mist

Mahomes makes sure to take care of her skin. She revealed on her Instagram story that one product she uses is a facial mist. ”I don’t ever get my face spray tanned anymore cause I get nervous about my perioral dermatitis breaking out. @Isabelalysa knows what she’s doing!!! This product is amazing! Literally mist it on my face every few days and gives my face a nice glowy tan. AND doesn’t irritate my skin.”
