Lauren Fisher is sharing a new equipment-free workout. In a new social media post the CrossFit athlete shows off her sensational body in a two-piece exercise set while demonstrating her moves. “Save this if you need a no equipment workout this holiday season,” she writes in the caption of the post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Personalize Nutrition
One of her most asked questions is what she eats in a day! “Nutrition is something that I firmly believe should be super personalized and dependent on your lifestyle and amount of exercise you are getting on a daily basis. But I wanted to share with you what I have been doing for my nutrition and share a bit about how I have been eating lately! As an athlete competing at the highest level, every little edge I can get will carry over to my performance when it matters. Nutrition is one of those that is high on my priority list. If you’re ignoring your nutrition and constantly putting it under stress and fatigue, your performance will suffer. I’ve seen it first hand where all of sudden I’m not eating enough calories to fuel my training and an injury breaks out. You owe it to your body and yourself to prioritize controllable things like this. You might notice you sleep better, you have less inflammation, you’ll feel better and just all around be a better person,” she writes on her blog.
Eating Real Food
Lauren is a big advocate of eating real food. “Sounds simple but in this era real food actually ain't that simple and easy to come by. Or rather I should say processed food is too easy to come by and a lot of people end up eating what I call "fake food". Food that's been made up and processed with a bunch of bad ingredients. So my advice is to find food that has not been modified (lack of a better word). Examples are fresh fruit and veggies, fresh produce (without added ingredients) and generally speaking just real things. If it came straight from the ground or an animal you're good to go. If it has a ton of words that's hard to pronounce on the label it's a no-no,” she writes.
Meal Prep
ShutterstockShe also recommends meal prepping. “Find one or two days in the week where you can meal prep in bulk. This means you're cooking food that will last 2-4 days ahead of time so you don't have to worry about cooking every day. It's a timesaver and also makes it a lot easier to stay on track,” she writes.
Snorkeling
While on vacation you can find Lauren with a mask and fins swimming with the fish. “Nusa Penida Boat Day🚤 snorkeling with manta rays & the turtles,” she captioned a post. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.
Here's Her Workout
Lauren recommends doing as many rounds as possible in 12 minutes. “I got 9 rounds + 19 reps,” she writes.
1 burpee*
10 air squats
10 push ups
10 butterfly sit ups
*Each round, add 1 burpee
