Hailey Rae Ostrom is out on the range in her workout gear. In a new social media post the golf influencer flaunts her amazing figure in a two-piece exercise set while playing a game. “Still chasing that eagle #golf #eaglewatch,” she captioned the Instagram clip. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
1. Interval Cardio
In a video on her YouTube channel Hailey reveals that one of her go-to workouts is an interval cardio circuit. “I'm going to do my 20 minute interval, three miles per hour, four miles per hour, alternating for 40 seconds, 40 seconds, 15 times through on 15% incline, which equals 20 minutes,” she says. Walking on an incline burns more calories than walking fast or even running on a flat surface, which is why many experts suggest upping your incline. A 2013 study even found that walkin on a 2 to 7 percent incline increased heart rate by almost 10 percent when compared with running on a flat surface.
2. Protein

Hailey understands the importance of protein. “Postworkout, you have to get your protein,” she says. One of her go-tos? Hard boiled eggs. She also admits that she eats turkey meatballs “every single night” with broccoli or sweet potatoes. She makes them with gluten-free panko, the “leanest” turkey she can find, one egg, and “a little bit of cheese. “You make them into one and a half to two inch little balls. You bake at 400 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.”
3. Water with Apple Cider Vinegar, Lemon, and Honey

She also drinks “water with apple cider vinegar and lemon and honey,” she says. “I have my water bottle, it's one liter bottle.” She fills it with water and adds a “lemon and a half,” one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, and two tablespoons of honey “and then you're gonna shake it up and you drink one of one liter of this a day.”
4. Cycling
Hailey enjoys cycling on her NordicTrack s27i bike. “Strong thighs means long drives, right!?” she says about her “new favorite workout.” 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.
5. Golf
Hailey’s main form of fitness is golfing. 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.
