Fitness Influencer Noel Arevalo in Two-Piece Workout Gear Says "Dial in Your Nutrition"

Noel Arevalo is showing off her chiseled body – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the fitness influencer poses for her followers in a sports bra and leggings, while revealing what changes she made to achieve her body. “Here’s what happens when you DIAL in your NUTRITION,” she wrote in the post, explaining that two years into her fitness journey she struggled to see any progress even though she was “eating clean” and being good about her diet. “I started feeling the lack of motivation setting in because the lack of results which lead me to not being consistent in the gym, which turned into a vicious cycle. It all started to come crashing in on me and overwhelming me - WHAT SHOULD I BE EAT? HOW MUCH SHOULD I BE EATING? AM I DOING ENOUGH CARDIO? I finally got sick and tired of feeling sick and tired of not knowing what to do and it was determined to figure out how to get the results I knew I deserved. I was determined to figure out the right strategy to getting sustainable results. And trust me I tell I’m you it was not a pretty path to figure it out but I FINALLY discovered the piece to the puzzle that I was missing. It was my damn NUTRITION and the whole time, nutrition is the foundation to achieving any RESULTS. Obtaining the ‘toned look by building muscle, getting stronger in the gym, feeling more energized and especially when it comes to fat loss.” How does she approach diet and fitness? Here are her top tips for staying in shape.

1. No Food Restrictions

Noel allows herself to eat what she wants in moderation. “NO food restrictions over here,” she writes in a post. ENJOYING the food you love AND getting amazing results is 1000% possible. I can’t believe I used to think it was a FACT that I couldn’t have pizza, sushi or any of the foods I love in order to get results, thanks to all the BS info on the internet.” She explains that when she restricted herself she was “miserable” and ended up binging on the weekends. “That’s when I knew something HAD to change. I had ZERO balance and it resulted in me being stuck in a cycle of binge eating,” she confessed. She then mastered the art of balance.

2. Snowboarding

Noel enjoys snowboarding. “Most favorite time of year 🥹❤️‍🔥,” she captioned a post of herself on the slopes. According to the University of Rochester, snowboarding, like skiing, is a great cardiovascular workout. “Because they are also weight-bearing exercises, they strengthen your bones as they tone your muscles,” they say. “Cardiovascular or aerobic exercises also work to reduce your risk for chronic diseases, and lower blood pressure. They also help you maintain a healthy body weight. Through regular aerobic exercise like skiing and snowboarding, you lower your risk of developing conditions like diabetes and heart disease, having a stroke, and perhaps even getting cancer.”

3. Golf

Noel also enjoys golfing. “Golf the truest love and hate relationship that exists 😂⛳️ WHERE should I play next?” she captioned a post. 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.

4. Hiking

Hiking is another outdoor activity Noel enjoys. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

• Building stronger muscles and bones
• Improving your sense of balance
• Improving your heart health
• Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems

5. Structure

Noel maintains that “strategy and structure” are part of her approach. “You need the correct strategy and structure within your nutrition, training, and cardio regimen to support YOU and your goals. THIS is what you need to break through that plateau, and there’s no other way around it,” she says in a post.
