ESPN Host Victoria Arlen in Two-Piece Workout Gear Says "The World is Brighter"

Victoria Arlen is celebrating the end of a perfect weekend – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the ESPN host shows off her amazing body exercise clothes while expressing her gratitude. "The world is a bit brighter because of weekends like this," she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits. 

Victoria starts the day off at 4:45 am, doing a 30-minute meditation. "I'm a morning person. When I first wake up, I spend some time trying to stay in the moment—to be present and grateful," she told Women's Health. "When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress," says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:

• Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
• Building skills to manage your stress
• Increasing self-awareness
• Focusing on the present
• Reducing negative emotions
• Increasing imagination and creativity
• Increasing patience and tolerance
• Lowering resting heart rate
• Lowering resting blood pressure
• Improving sleep quality

Next up, she gets her zen on. "I do a little yoga, too, and then use my Theragun to help with sore muscles to get my legs up and working," she told the publication. There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. "Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood," they said. "People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating."

At 5:15 a.m she heads to Soul Cycle. "I usually work out two to three hours a day, often starting at the SoulCycle right near my new place in West Hollywood," she said. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis. 

"I also love Pure Barre and work out with a trainer three to five times a week. Constantly switching it up and challenging my body is key. Every day, I have to keep reminding my legs that they work," she added. "Barre helps strengthen and tone your muscles without increasing bulk, and it improves your posture. It also increases cardiovascular endurance and metabolism, which helps to quickly burn calories. Regular barre workouts can increase your bone density, which can help prevent conditions like osteoporosis," explains Barre studio Physique 57. 

Victoria fuels up with protein in the morning. "I love breakfast. My go to is one-quarter cup of oatmeal, three egg whites, a handful of blueberries, and a scoop of almond butter. It's a perfect combo of everything I need. I'll pair it with coconut coffee concentrate from Trader Joe's and almond milk plus stevia," she says. 

In her recent post, Victoria golfs at the Double Eagle Club in Ohio. A comprehensive review published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that golf's health benefits are extensive, including mind, body, and even lifespan. Benefits include improved longevity, decreased risk of developing heart disease or suffering a stroke, good mental health, and improved strength and balance.
