Stretching Exercises

Spencer starts her workouts with stretching—namely, Downward-Facing Dog. "It targets everywhere in the body which is known to get tight," says her trainer Lee Mullins. "So things like the shoulder, the upper back, the hips, the hamstrings. With one stretch, we target every area."

Hip Circles

Spencer uses resistance bands for a side bridge with hip circles (at least 30 seconds of repetitions). "It's a fantastic drill to target the glutes, and also the obliques and side abdominals which we refer to as something called 'the pillar'," Mullins says. "Which is something that needs to be strong. Especially when we're getting into some of the bigger moves in the workout."

Bird Dog With Row

Spencer does single-leg side planks, then an exercise called bird dog with row. "It's a fantastic exercise for working your posterior oblique sling, which is a line of muscles which are really important for things like posture and running technique," Mullins says.

Standing Leg Single Clam

Spencer also does lying tricep extensions and standing leg single clam. She uses the resistance band again for this move. "It's working the abdominals, it's working the glutes, and you're asking the legs to work as well," Mullins says. "Working with a resistance band and in circuits will help you get your heart rate up, which will increase fat burn and muscle building," says the Mayo Clinic.

Swimming

Spencer is a confident and accomplished underwater swimmer. "Swimming can improve mood in both men and women," says the CDC. "For people with fibromyalgia, swimming can decrease anxiety, and exercise therapy in warm water can decrease depression and improve mood."
