Chloe Madeley is “returning to training after time away” – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the influencer flaunts her fit figure in a two-piece set while doing hip thrusts on a machine. “In all honesty I don’t usually do warm up sets (I actually prefer a pyramid up in load, down in reps approach to my sets), but I haven’t lifted in 5 days after days of partying and travel 🥳✈️. Both make the body slightly higher risk of injury, so it’s important to stretch (dynamically) and ease back into usual loads lifted when returning to lifting,” she captioned the Instagram video. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
1. Clean Eating
“I eat 100 percent clean foods, so all natural foods such as chicken, fish, fruit, veg, whole grains like oats, sweet potato, nuts etc.” she said. “I then split them so my daily intake is predominantly protein, secondary carbs, and lastly fats,” Chloe revealed in an Instagram post.
2. Portion Control
Choe pays attention to portion sizes. “They don’t need to be tiny, but they don’t need to be massive either. Alternatively, try tracking your calories on an app such as MyFitnessPal,” she told Mail Online.
3. Sleep

Chloe emphasizes the importance of getting beauty sleep. “There’s not one area of your life that won’t be improved if you don’t get a better quality of sleep,” she told Metro UK.
4. Three to Four Workouts a Week
Chloe stays consistent with her workouts. “From weightlifting to running to cycling to body combat to spin, however you choose to enjoy moving your body and getting sweaty, aim to make time for whatever that is three to four times a week,” she told Healthista.
5. Nutrition
Understanding nutrition is key, says Chloe. She stresses the importance of understanding what “a protein, a fat and a carbohydrate is and what they are used for,” she told Healthista. “These are your three macro nutrients and what your daily calorie intake should be made up of. Protein should be your dominant macro (even if you follow a plant-based diet), such as chicken, fish, red meat, chickpeas, tofu, eggs, lentils and tempeh,” she continued. She also suggests eating carbs before and after a workout. “Try to opt for healthy unrefined carbs such as brown rice, brown pasta, sweet potato, brown bread and pulses. Then the remainder of your diet should consist of healthy fats such as olive oil, avocado, omegas from fish such as salmon and cheese.
6. Strength Training
“I am lucky in the sense that fitness and a healthy living is my job as well as my passion and hobby. I don’t have to work hard to stay motivated as it’s something I want to do and I genuinely enjoy,” she told Healthista. The feeling of getting up, going to the gym, physically challenging and moving my body is what I love to do on a daily basis and personally, I prefer weightlifting,” she revealed.
