Fitness Influencer Brittany Perille in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Abs Workout"

Brittany Perille is getting some exercise in her kitchen. In a new social media post the fitness influencer shows off her amazing body in a two-piece workout set while doing an abs workout. “Having goals that do not align with your values & beliefs is a huge part of why you’re failing,” she writes. How does she approach health and wellness? Here are her top diet and workout tips.

1. Work Out Twice a Day

Brittany often works out twice in a day. “I stick to this twice-a-day gym schedule six days a week, but work different muscle groups every day. Sometimes I go to the gym on Sundays too, but just to stretch. After eight weeks on this routine, which takes a major toll on the body and mind, I take a week off from heavy lifting to let my body recharge,” she told Cosmopolitan.

2. Train Your Glutes

Brittany is all about building her booty. “I train my glutes up to three times a week for up to an hour and fifteen minutes with about 10 different glutes exercises that isolate the muscles by working them from various angles,” she says. “My favorite butt exercise is most definitely the most effective one: the barbell hip thrust.” Her weight is pretty impressive. “I've gotten up to thrusting 315 pounds.”

3. Do Deadlifts

“I also do deadlifts, keeping the weight relatively low because I don't want to build bulky muscle in my midsection, and stiff-legged deadlifts, which deliver amazing results to the hamstrings without requiring heavy loads,” says Brittany.

4. Second Workout: Low Impact

For her second workout of the day, Brittany opts for something lower impact. “After lifting in the morning, I go back to the gym in the afternoon or evening to do 30 to 45 minutes of cardio, plus stretching, yoga, and foam rolling because it alleviates soreness and aids in muscle recovery,” she says.

5. Eat Small Meals Every 2 to 3 Hours

“Because I lift such heavy weights, my body is constantly burning calories and I need to eat every two to three hours,” Brittany reveals. “I eat a Quest bar and take a multivitamin before I go to the gym in the morning. After my morning workout, I drink a Legion whey protein shake with a banana. For lunch, I eat chicken with brown rice and bok choy. Before I go back to the gym, I'll have some rice cakes with a little bit of peanut butter. After cardio, I drink a shake made with amino acids. For dinner, I'll have more chicken, with sweet potatos and bok choy. Then I'll eat another protein bar or drink a Legion whey protein shake. I also eat a slow-digesting protein — usually Greek yogurt — right before bed (and sometimes in bed) to stop my body from going into starvation mode while I sleep so my body doesn't start breaking down my muscles to fuel basic functions.”

6. Eat Consistently

Overall Brittany sticks to a “very repetitive” diet. “I follow a Legion Athletics meal plan that's customized to make sure I eat the right amount of fat, protein, carbs for my body type.”
