Heidi Vuorela is a fitness superstar and influencer who has gained a massive following on Instagram thanks to her dedication to fitness and her impressive figure. Known for her consistent workout routine and motivational posts, she regularly shares videos of herself training at the gym, showing off her progress and inspiring her followers. Whether she’s lifting weights or focusing on her core, Heidi keeps her audience engaged with honest reflections about her fitness journey. In a recent Instagram video, Vuorela posed in front of a mirror, flaunting her toned physique in a black top and brown pants. She captioned the post, “It’s Friday,” giving her followers a glimpse into her workout routine and the confidence she’s earned through her hard work and discipline.

1. She Rests

Vuorela works out regularly. However, she makes sure to prioritize her rest days. She talked about this in the caption of an Instagram post. “Finally, it was training today after 3 days of involuntary rest,” Vuorela wrote. “Had to take the kids with me to get it together, but it went great. Stayed for 2 hours at the gym and they did not whine once that they wanted to go home. They thrive almost as well as I do there.”

2. She Does Leg Workouts

Vuorela makes sure to workout her entire body. Which includes her upper body. She likes to reveal what day she did in the captions of her gym videos. Vuorela captioned this video, “Today it was a workout. Back and triceps 👌 How can you think that this is just as fun every time! 😃 Never get tired of going to the gym 🥰

3. She Works Her Legs

Vuorela doesn’t skip leg day. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself revealing that she did a lower body workout that day in their captions. Vuorela captioned this post, “First session in 2 weeks! Trained a late evening workout from 21-23 and it turned into one hell of a leg workout. Usually do not work out for as long as 2 hours but tonight after such a long rest I just wanted to feed on and never stop 😄 Now we are back to these routines.”

4. She’s Motivated

Vuorela makes sure to stay motivated to workout. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “Became a leg pass to end this week as usual. Didn't really want to work out at 17:30, when you are used to working out in the mornings. Thought it would be completely full in the gym on a Friday night. But it was almost deserted. So nice that I still went to the gym because I tagged along and it was a good workout anyway even though you were unmotivated at first.”

5. She Goes Outside

Vuorela likes to go outside. She shared this post on Instagram of herself in a field. According to UC Davis, going outside is very beneficial. “Studies also show that being in nature has a positive effect on our bodies by reducing cortisol levels, muscle tension, and demands on our cardiovascular systems (lowers heart rate and blood pressure). Being out in nature often may lead to lower rates of heart disease. The great outdoors can also help you increase your vitamin D level, which is important for your bones, blood cells, and immune system.”

Lindsey Vonn is getting her sweat on – and flaunting her fit figure. In a new social media post the skier shows off her amazing body in a two-piece workout look while executing a workout at the gym. “Back on my @redbull grind and man, it feels good! Getting as strong as I can… think I might have a plan for the knee, but first I need to get,” she captioned the Instagram Reel. What exercises are helping her get strong and what other health habits does she practice? Here is everything you need to know.

1. Here Is Her Latest Workout

According to Kendra Gamble, HIT Fitness Training, Huntingdon Valley, PA, NPTI Certified Personal Trainer and Nutritional Consultant, Lindsey’s workout includes:

• Single leg hip thrust
• Standing abduction machine (can be done with a band)
• Lying hamstring curl
• Inverted row
• *Back extension
• *Side plank hip adduction
• TRX push up

2. She’s Training to Be “Lean and Fit” with Weight Training

Lindsey admits she has gotten "a lot leaner" after retiring from skiing. "I used to do things that were so sport specific, so I had to be bigger," she told New York Post's Alexa magazine. "But everyone is like, 'Oh my God, you're in the best shape of your life.' It's like — yes and no. I'm not training for my sport anymore, I am training to be lean and fit,” she said. She has dramatically decreased her body fat with the help of trainer Gunnar Peterson. "Different training. Different diet. Crazy!" Her workouts are no joke, and she trains three to four times a week. "Whatever you like doing is what you should be doing," she told Women’s Health. Her workouts are a combo of strength and weight training, using a lot of weighted balls, battle ropes, lifts, squats.

3. She Also Does Two Cardio Workouts a Week

Lindsey supplements her weight and strength training with two cardio workouts a week, but you won’t find her running on the treadmill. "I have a doctor's note that says I should never run again in my life, and I'm okay with that," she says. Instead she cycles or surfs.

4. She Also Walks After Dinner

"I have to go outside and walk the glucose off with my dog," Lindsey says about her post-dinner strolls. According to science, you should too. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

5. Her Diet Is “Clean”

Lindsey no longer follows her “ski season” diet of “a lot of protein and carbs,” she told People. Phil Goglia revamped her diet when she retired, and it now involves a lot of water, eating clean food, and timing her meals. “I try not to eat too much in the morning before I work out,” she told Women’s Health. Post-workout Lindsey eats “egg white omelets with broccoli, chicken, and pepper, and stuff like that.” For lunch, she might have chicken or salmon with kale or cabbage. For dinner, her plate is filled with a mix of protein and veggies – like chicken salad with avocado or a zucchini pasta with bolognese meat sauce. Almonds, kiwis, and blueberries are go-to snacks. Overall she tries to eat a lot of plant-based foods. “Listen, the kitchen can be intimidating to anyone. But I’m here to tell you: You can do it. And with the new year, let’s do it better, together. I’ve got 14 places to help you start eating more plant-based foods,” she captioned a recent post, suggesting the Just Egg cookbook to her followers.

1. She Does A Variety Of Workouts

Jenneke shared some of her favorite workouts with Body & Soul. She says that she does a variety of different things. “It’s a lot of heavy weights there, plus full body exercises and quite a bit of plyometric [exercises]. I start with heavy weights, and then I’ll do some lighter functional circuit, towards the end. All up, that takes an hour and a half to two hours… and sometimes when I finish a session I just lie on the ground.”

2. She Eats A Healthy Breakfast

Jenneke also shared her diet secrets with Body & Soul. She shared her favorite breakfasts for training day. “It really depends on what my training day looks like, but if I’ve got training in the morning (which I often do at the moment) I’ll have cereal generally before I go out and train. Then, I actually love having a Milo after a hard session – it’s got good levels of protein and iron in it – and then I make myself a second breakfast, which could be muesli with yoghurt or bacon and eggs.”

3. She Dances

Jenneke likes to dance before a meet. "The dancing preparation is good," Jenneke said to The New Zealand Herald. "People see me doing a dance on the track and it's part of my enjoyment ... I love being there and I love racing and that's how I express that. If you watch me during my warm up I'm dancing the whole way through it. I've always got music playing and I'm just really getting into it, it's how I pump myself up for the race."

4. She Swims

Jenneke loves to swim to stay in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself snorkeling in the ocean. Jenneke captioned the post, “A little taste of my amazing holiday in the Whitsundays last week 🌴⛵️ @suncoastcharters @hamiltonisland #gopro 🎶 Born To Be Yours - Kygo & Imagine Dragons.”

She Trains Consistently

Jenneke shared her training secrets with Body & Soul. She says that consistency is important. “I do three track sessions a week, and they can be from 2-3 hours each, which can be full on. You do some warm up, a hurdle session, and then a sprint session after that.”

2. She Has Recovery Days

Herbert makes sure to prioritize her recovery days. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “Your reminder to don’t skip your recovery days 🙂‍↕️Up until a few years ago, you would NEVER catch me taking a day off. I thought that hammering my body would lead to faster progress—boy, was I wrong! 🫠 I was overtraining; my body was always achy and fatigued, my progress had stalled, and I felt less motivated to train because I never gave myself a day off. Now, I prioritize 1-2 recovery days each week, usually one on Sundays, where I do not touch weights and only focus on recovery and mobility work. This gives both my mind and body time to recover between sessions.🤍”

3. She Strength Trains

Herbert does a lot of strength training to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing strength training upper body workouts.
