Margita Zámolová is a personal trainer and IFBB champion. Last month, she did a training session with Andrea Breihof. Breihof shared their session on Instagram, captioning it, “I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to the wonderful Margita ❤️. Your training session was truly enjoyable; we pushed ourselves to muscle failure, and it was refreshing to incorporate supersets again after such a long time. Remember, never let go of your dreams, no matter how distant they may seem. Every step forward, no matter how small, brings you closer to your goals. Consistency and perseverance are key.”


She Lifts Weights

Zámolová likes to lift weights to keep herself in shape. She is seen doing so in this Instagram video. Lifting weights has a lot of benefits. ACE Fitness states, “Using heavy weights increases intramuscular coordination, the number of type II motor units and the amount of muscle fibers engaged within a specific muscle. Have you ever felt your muscles shaking while lifting heavy weights? This is because you are recruiting and activating the larger type II muscle fibers, which are only stimulated to work when a muscle is challenged with heavy resistance or working to fatigue.”

She Loves Cucumbers

Zámolová shared some of her favorite meals in this Instagram photo. In one of her bowls, she is seen eating cucumbers. The Cleveland Clinic states that cucumbers are very healthy. “Cucumbers belong to the gourd or Cucurbitaceae family, along with pumpkins, squash and melons. This low-calorie fruit (yes, a fruit — it has seeds and grows from a flowering plant!) is chock-full of water and other nutrients, including fiber, vitamins A, K and C, potassium and calcium. One serving equals about 100 grams, or one-third of a medium-size cucumber.”

She Loves Tomatoes

Zámolová is also seen eating tomatoes in the previous Instagram photo. The Cleveland Clinic states that tomatoes have a lot of benefits. “A fruit that’s often mistakenly called (and prepared like) a vegetable, tomatoes offer fiber, vitamin C, potassium, folate and more. And the bright red color of a ripe tomato isn’t just a feast for the eyes. The color comes from lycopene (giving tomatoes their red pigment) and beta-carotene (contributing the orangey glow), two antioxidants responsible for some of the health benefits of tomatoes.”

She Swims

Zámolová likes to swim to keep herself in shape. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself in the water. Zámolová shared this photo of herself in the pool in Boca Raton. She also included some photos of herself in the water in this Instagram post. Better Health states that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming is a good all-round activity because it: keeps your heart rate up but takes some of the impact stress off your body, builds endurance, muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness, helps you maintain a healthy weight, healthy heart and lungs, tones muscles and builds strength, provides an all-over body workout, as nearly all of your muscles are used during swimming.”

She Hikes

Zámolová likes to go hiking to keep herself in shape. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself hiking in Valley of Fire State Park. Zámolová captioned it, “We wish you good health, good luck and great people in places where you will feel good in 2023 too! :)” Harvard Health states that hiking has a lot of benefits. “Walking is great exercise, but sometimes you need a break from your usual neighborhood loop or the monotony of the basement treadmill. Head out for a hike instead. It's similar to walking but can give you a fitness boost along with a dose of novelty and adventure. And not only is hiking great exercise, it doesn't require much equipment.”
