Ivana Ivusic-Wilkin, a successful IFBB competitor, regularly shares glimpses of her fitness journey on Instagram. Recently, she posted a video from the gym, posing in new workout gear and expressing her goal to share more training content. Ivusic, known for her dedication to fitness, emphasizes the importance of setting personal goals, staying consistent, and doing workouts you genuinely enjoy. Her training routine includes weight training and lower body exercises, which she incorporates to stay strong and continually push her limits.
1. She Has Goals
Ivusic shared some of her wellness tips in an interview with Revive. She says that she sets goals for herself. “First thing is first, focus on your own goals! Be inspired by your own self and not some image you see online. Tell yourself there is no one you want to look more like than yourself and remember where you started! This is the most important part of sticking to your goals. We all start our fitness journey for many different personal reasons and those reasons will drive us to success if we continue to work hard every day. I encourage everyone to try different ways of healthy eating and exercising and then decide what works best for you. Do not allow other's poor choices to impact your own.”
2. She’s Consistent
Consistency is extremely important to Ivusic. She tells Revive, “Change doesn't happen overnight, it takes time and effort. We can't expect immediate results for habits we have had for countless years. If we do, we will soon be discouraged and discouragement can lead to deeper negative habits. Instead, let's focus on the process and the small changes.”
3. She Does Workouts She Likes
Ivusic tells Revive that she does exercises that she enjoys. “Start out with finding what the perfect type of exercise is for you. I highly recommend trying new things. Join a class, workout with a friend, workout alone, try group training, try cycling, etc. Most importantly do not allow yourself to think you have to work out just because you feel guilty for your daily food choices. This will set you up for failure and once we fail it can be much harder to keep going. Remember each goal takes time!”
4. She Weight Trains
Ivusic shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. She likes to weight train to stay fit. Ivusic shared this video of herself doing squats with weights. She captioned the post, “If it’s easy, make it hard. If it’s hard, make it easy.👌🏼Thanks for the hospitality @destinationdallastexas it sure felt great to be back! Always lots of excitement with the family @officialbetterbodies @officialgasp. Next stop Houston 🫡”
5. She Works Her Lower Body
Ivusic doesn’t skip leg day. In the previous Instagram post, she is seen doing squats. Ivusic also shared this video of herself doing lower body workouts like hip thrusts, single leg hip thrusts, and sumo squats. Ivusic captioned it, “Just trying to stay fit/maybe grow a little 😉 and share some training videos for y’all to follow!”
