Looking incredible in her light pink workout gear, taking a confident mirror selfie like the MySpace days, Leryn Franco is an actress and model from Paraguay, also known for her days as an athlete. Not just any athlete, but an Olympic athlete in 2004, 2008 and 2012, competing in the javelin throw. How does a previous Olympic athlete, model, pageant contestant, and more stay in shape? Here are Franco’s tips!


1. She likes to swim

Swimming can be such a beneficial way to lose weight, without putting a lot of pressure on the joints. She spends plenty of time in the pool, a wonderful way to fit in some activity, as seen on Instagram. According to the Cleveland Clinic, “swimming isn’t just good exercise, it’s great exercise. That’s thanks to the water itself, which offers buoyancy and resistance that makes it easier on your whole body than other forms of exercise.”

2. She plays tennis

She really enjoys playing tennis and getting out on the court. Her Instagram post show’s her enjoying a game of tennis, with a caption that translates in english to “champions of the @club_centenario #MiamiOpen2023 category A of the #CopaDasani With my partner from another planet @decoudivan__ 💪🏾💪🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Tell them that the breaks were fundamental to adjust the strategy and correct mistakes, hydrate well to come back with much more energy! @poweradeparaguay Surprised with the maturity and solidity of my partner (20 years younger than me 🤒 😅 🙈 ) Watch the video and the definition of the last point! It was an honor to be in this final!!! Throughout the championship tough rivals but above all friends and loved ones off the courts. A beautiful party that could be held thanks to the efforts of many people! The board of directors and brands like Dasani who continue to support sport in Paraguay!”

3. She builds healthy habits

Building healthy habits overtime is so crucial when it comes to your overall health and well-being. In a video she posted on Instagram of her hitting it hard in the gym, she captioned it “you want to see results fast! You want to avoid injuries! You want to get out of your workouts by having trained hard and hard! Well then this video is for you!!! Remember that physical activity is just a part of the healthy habits you have to carry! You can!!! 💪🏾💪🏾”

4. She eats her veggies and keeps it healthy

She truly enjoys cooking and eating healthy foods. She took to Instagram to say, “cooking out with the family on Sundays is now a tradition! ♥️😍 Today these sushi came out 😅 🙈 that we all made together, they won't have THE LOOK 🙈 🙈 but I promise you they came out very very tasty 🤤 🤤 ♥️ Another thing that is also a tradition is to go to @delimarket_py DeliMarket, so we make sure to always find everything we need and the best brands 🔝👌🏾”

5. She appreciates life

Gratitude, positivity, confidence, and appreciation can go such a long way for your mental health. “Life IS beautiful, NOT easy. BEAUTIFUL! And in the end what matters is not how many years you lived, but the life you gave to those years! I hope today you manage to complete one more day of physical training, and you are adding quality of life to your dreams❤️ 🔥 ☑️ if you trained TODAY, or you will!!! 💪🏾✨” she said on Instagram.
