Golfer Maria Fassi in Two-Piece Workout Gear is "Ready to Go to Boston"
Maria Fassi is showing off her swing – in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the golfer flaunts her amazing legs in a golfing outfit while on the course. "Ready to go in Boston, let's go have a great one!!" she captioned the Instagram video. "🔥🔥🔥 amazing," one of her followers commented. "Ufff those legs 🔥🔥🔥😍," added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
6 Workouts Per Week
During the offseason, Maria works out six days a week, with two days of active recovery. Those days usually involve low intensity workouts like walking or swimming, she told PGA.
Heavy, Lower Body Workouts
"One day of the week, I do moderate to heavy lower body workouts in the gym," Fassi told PGA. "The key is to do a lot of reps with not a lot of weight. The goal is to be explosive — to be fast." She does lunges, squats and deadlifts, which help with her swing. "It is good to train my body to move fast and explosively because those are the exercises that get me more distance, and who doesn't want more distance?" she adds.
Upper Body
"Another day is all about the upper body. This is where I do any sort of workout that trains for fast twitches of the arm and shoulder muscles," she told the publication.
Less Reps with More Weight
Other days of the week she focuses on doing slower, more controlled movements to train the whole body. "Less reps with more weight help keep my full body engaged during the workout," she told PGA. Which day of the week is the most important in the gym? She says, "every exercise compliments one another so there is no one day or exercise which stands out. They're all important, but the average golfer can see a lot of improvement in their game with mobility exercises."
Yoga and Pilates
She also does mobility workouts including yoga and pilates. "Yoga and pilates are nice because they're more than mobility to me," she adds. "They train my mind because they're relaxing, which helps with my mental game."
