Influencer and fitness expert Lauren Fisher shares her fitness journey through intense workouts, meal prepping, and smart recovery techniques. In a recent Instagram post, Fisher donned a sleek two-piece workout set and demonstrated her go-to exercises, offering a glimpse into her dedication to staying fit. Beyond the gym, Fisher emphasizes the importance of giving her body time to recover, meal prepping to stay on track, and even indulging in cheat days to maintain balance. As a frequent traveler, she also ensures to squeeze in quick, effective workouts while on the road. From lifting heavy weights to allowing herself a break, Fisher’s approach is all about sustainability and enjoying the process of staying healthy.
1. She Pushes Herself
Known for her fitness retreats and intense workouts, Fisher showed followers a quick glimpse of a compilation of exercises she does to keep in shape. Wearing short grey shorts and a matching top, Fisher is seen lifting heavy weights, pull-ups, and battle ropes.
2. She Gives Herself Time to Recover
Working hard to achieve fitness and health goals also includes downtime to allow the body to recover, something Fisher recently reminded followers. “Over the years, I’ve realized that recovery is just as important as the workout,” she wrote. “And honestly, when it’s that time of the month, I feel it even more. My energy dips, and my body just feels like slowing down. Instead of pushing through, I’ve learned to listen to my body and give myself a break when I need it. Some days, it’s full rest, or like today, it’s light movement with a run followed by recovery using the @hyperice Venom 2 Back. The heat and vibration provide a lot of relief and help me feel better. It’s a reminder that recovery isn’t slacking off—it’s taking care of yourself so you can show up stronger later. So if you’re feeling off, especially during your period, it’s totally okay to take a step back. 🫶”
3. She Workouts While Traveling
Working out is one of the last things most people want to do while traveling, but Fisher tries to stay on track when she’s jetsetting, she shared in an Instagram post. “Sticking to a modified version of my typical morning routine while on vacation always makes me feel my best while traveling. “
1️⃣ Sunlight exposure (not shown in video, but Ras and I opened our hotel windows to get the morning light right away)
2️⃣ Morning workout & doing what I want right now (this included the GS20 program from Grown Strong. 💪 Comment WORKOUT and I’ll DM you what I did in under 20 minutes)
3️⃣ Don’t forget your greens people ✌️ this can be easy one to let slip… Thankful for the travel packets from @organifi Green Juice (LAURENFISHER saves 20%)
4️⃣ Breakfast of course. I ate after my workout today so was craving a Skyr yogurt bowl. An hour later I had a 2nd breakfast with my normal eggs. Anyone else do 2 breakfasts? 😂
4. She Meal Preps

Fisher meal preps to help ensure she eats a healthy diet. On her blog, she shared why it’s a game-changer for her. “Find one or two days in the week where you can meal prep in bulk. This means you're cooking food that will last 2-4 days ahead of time so you don't have to worry about cooking every day. It's a timesaver and also makes it a lot easier to stay on track.”
5. She Has Cheat Days

While Fisher sticks to a healthy diet and fitness routine, she also allows herself to have fun. On her blog, she stated,” DON’T LET PERFECT BE THE ENEMY OF PROGRESS. The world is not going to end if you have a cheat meal once or even twice a week. Heck, I promise enjoying yourself on your birthday or a holiday won’t kill your progress either. For me, I actually have one day a week where I don’t even worry about sticking to my plan and I go out to enjoy a nice dinner with my fiancé and go out for ice cream after. If I was 100% strict all the time, I would not be able to stick with this and it would do more damage than good. Going back to the balance I talked about earlier. So next time your friends invite you out, don't say no because you're nervous about your meal plan.”
