1. She keeps moving

She continued to move and feel good throughout her pregnancy. “Feel so so sooo lucky to have been able to continue to move throughout my pregnancy and fill my body with endorphins, energy, strength and power. Exercise makes me feel so happy and makes me feel like me, I’ve never been more grateful for my body being able to move + grow my little baby too,” she said on Instagram. “Don’t get me wrong, training throughout pregnancy is 10000% not for everyone - it’ll depend on your symptoms, if you’re high risk and what you did prior to being pregnant so I in no way want this to make any mamas feel pressured but..If you can and you WANT to, keep going and keep moving that bod mama. Whether it’s weightlifting, pilates, yoga, walks! Movement will help you feel happier, healthier, lighter + actually helps with the aches and pains even if it feels like there’s no way it could. It really really will 💕 the mental strength you’ll gain from pushing through the harder days will be so beneficial too.”

2. She stays motivated

She remains motivated and active, keeping up with her routine and fitness goals. “Healthy happy strong women, let’s say it louder!!! Tag someone who needs to hear this today. Can’t wait to tell my baby girl this forever,” she said on Instagram. According to Health Direct, “most people struggle with motivation, but it is even more challenging if you have mental health issues such as depression or anxiety. Here are some tips: set yourself one specific, achievable goal. Think about how to include that goal in your life, what you need to do to make it happen. Then put a timeframe on it (such as one week or one month). Break your goal into small, easy tasks and set regular reminders to complete each step. Use your family and friends as support – tell them about your goals and encourage them to help keep you motivated.”

3. She factors in quick and effective workouts

She fits in quick, effective workouts. She posted “30 minute glutes ✨Your weekly reminder that you don’t need to spend hours in the gym, a 20-30 minute blast is SO beneficial 🤌🏼For my busy gals on the go this booty session is perrrrrrfect. I’m currently writing + testing sessions just like this for a new summer programme where all the workouts are going to be super compact but still effective for when you have less time, are on holiday this summer or just want something quick but killer for the muscles,” on Instagram to inspire those with minimal time to still factor in a workout.

4. She wants to be an inspiration

She wants to inspire her family to be active and healthy as they grow. “One thing I’m so passionate about now I’m a mum is to ensure Winnie grows up in an environment where she can see and feel how positive being active can be. She’s so much more likely to carry that feeling towards movement into her adult life then. It’s really hard getting into fitness as an adult if you don’t have any kind of foundation, I think it’s a huge reason the fitness industry was extremely male dominant for years. So many women grew up believing fitness was for boys, PE was for boys, we would get bulky and ‘manly’ if we did it,” she said on Instagram.

5. She’s positive

She stays positive with a healthy, happy mindset. “A mid week feel good reminder for you 🍓✨❤️‍🩹🌸 life’s way way too short to live seeing the glass half empty!! Look for the best in the people you meet, not the worst. Be silly like it’s 2k12 again. Tell the people you love that you love them as much as you can, it’s not weird!! Enjoy each day, the exciting ones AND the mundane ones - (cos there’s usually lots of them too.) Sit in the slower moments and be present. Look up and notice the little things and joys in life. Send this to a bestie who needs a lil positive pick me up today, cos they deserve it,” she said on Instagram.

Megan Grubb is a weightlifter and a fitness influencer. She even has her own app. Grubb shared her recent workout on Instagram. She captioned the post, “Today’s session was a workout from my new Summer Bootcamp I’ve just dropped in my app @beyondapp. A 30 minute high intensity lifting burst. As you can see I did this with homemade weights (a bag full of books for a barbell and water bottles for dumbbells) but you can do this at the gym too with the weights!! That’s the beauty of the bootcamp, you really can do it anywhere and adding in weights or homemade alternatives like this really will intensify your workout that little bit more.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Megan Grubb stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. She Appreciates All Types Of Workouts

In her post’s caption, Grubb revealed that she has learned to appreciate any type of workout, and that it doesn’t matter how long it is. “Now I’ve realised how for years if it wasn’t my typical full on leg day or upper day, it was only half a workout in my head. Which is sooo not true!! And it feels so nice to appreciate different forms of movement so much more now. Whether it’s a run, a lifting session at the gym, a cycle on the peloton or a home style workout they ALL count as a full on workout.”

2. She Enjoys Working Out

Grubb says that she enjoys working out, and that helps her stay consistent. She revealed in this post that she worked out while she was pregnant. “Feel so so sooo lucky to have been able to continue to move throughout my pregnancy and fill my body with endorphins, energy, strength and power. Exercise makes me feel so happy and makes me feel like me, I’ve never been more grateful for my body being able to move + grow my little baby too 🤍Don’t get me wrong, training throughout pregnancy is 10000% not for everyone - it’ll depend on your symptoms, if you’re high risk and what you did prior to being pregnant so I in no way want this to make any mamas feel pressured but.. If you can and you WANT to, keep going and keep moving that bod mama.”

3. She Strength Trains

Grubb likes to lift weights. She is seen doing so in the previous Instagram post. ACE Fitness states that lifting weights has a lot of benefits. “Lifting heavy weights elevates levels of anabolic hormones—specifically testosterone, growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1)—which are used to repair muscle fibers damaged during exercise. This helps the muscle fibers to become thicker and capable of generating higher levels of force.”

4. She Runs

Grubb revealed in this Instagram post that she has started running to stay fit. She captioned it, “3 months ago i decided to start my running journey. I wanted to feel the buzz, the runners high and see if I could figure out integrating it into weightlifting. Weightlifting makes me feel confident and powerful. But running brings in a different kind of a high, a period of time to get fully into a playlist and feel a new rush - you can do it anywhere, at any time, there’s no limit; it sparked a new kind of joy in me and has made me feel my best mentally but also physically I’ve seen the most progress in SO long.”

5. She Meal Preps

Grubb makes sure to eat healthy. One of her secrets is meal prepping. She shares a lot of her favorite meals on Instagram. In this post, Grubb made some protein-heavy foods. She captioned the post, “What I meal prepped this week 💞🎀✨ 🤍 halloumi + sweet chilli jam flatbread. 🤍 mexican prawn bowl with black bean salsa. 🤍 berry cheesecake overnight oats All from @thegoodbite high protein meal prep cook book! Soooo handy having yummy meals ready to grab in the fridge.”
