Vonn likes to work out in the mornings. This means that she eats a light meal before training, as she doesn’t want to be weight down, but still wants to have some energy. “I try not to eat too much in the morning before I work out,” she told Women’s Health. “I’m not working out crazy hard, but I notice I feel better; not as weighed down.”

Vonn and her trainer, Alex Hunt, have the skier’s fitness routine down to a science. Bunt says that he has calculated the perfect routine for her to do, which will give her the best results. “Our approach is extremely goal-oriented, goal-driven, data-driven and all based on science,” Bunt told Women’s Health. “Everything we do is purposeful, we have a plan for everything and every situation.

One of Vonn’s favorite pieces of gym equipment is resistance bands. She says that she takes them with her when she’s on vacation, that way she can still workout, no matter where she is. “Sometimes I’ll be in some remote place in Europe, where they don’t even have televisions let alone a gym, so it’s good to keep [the bands] with me all the time, just in case I get into a bind,” Vonn told Shape.

6. She Just Had Knee Surgery

Vonn deserves the spa time. She's just out of the hospital. “Surgery yesterday went well…. Been having a hard time with the pain in my knee. You may have noticed I haven’t been posting many workout videos lately… that’s why,” she posted this week. “Dr Hackett did a great job and removed a lot of bone spurs and scar tissue. Hopefully now I can straighten my leg fully! This is my last step before getting a knee replacement… hoping this will hold me over for a year or two until I get the big surgery. Ahhh the price we pay to do what we love. Still worth it though. Thanks to everyone for the well wishes. Means a lot. See you on the mat and the slopes soon! ❤️🙏🏻💪🏻.”

1. She Never Ate Meat Before A Race

When Vonn was competing, she had to be mindful of what she ate the night before. She revealed to Delish that she avoided meat the night before a race. “No steaks, no burgers. Your body is spending a lot of energy trying to digest it instead of using your energy to recover and rest and get ready for a race. I never ate meat the night before a race.” "If you don't like the idea of a whole day without meat, start with a couple of meatless dinners each week. Plan meals that feature your favorite entrees that are typically meatless, such as lasagna, soup or pasta salad. Or try substituting the following protein-rich foods for meat in your favorite recipes:

• Beans and legumes — great in casseroles and salads
• Vegetarian refried beans — a good substitute for meat in burritos and tacos
• Tofu — a perfect addition to stir-fry dishes," says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Believes In Balance

Now that Vonn is no longer a professional athlete, her diet has changed. She says that she still eats healthy, but allows herself more indulgences. “I treat myself whenever I feel like I need to,” she tells Women’s Health. “Since I’m not competing anymore, I feel like I can let loose a little bit.”

3. She Eats Light In The Morning

Vonn likes to workout in the morning. In order to do this, she says that she tries not to eat a heavy breakfast. “I try not to eat too much in the morning before I work out,” she told Women’s Health. “I’m not working out crazy hard, but I notice I feel better; not as weighed down.”

4. She Uses A Plan

Vonn works with nutritionist, Phil Goglia, to plan her diet. She says that having a structured diet helps her eat healthy on a regular basis. “If left to my own devices, I’d probably have mac and cheese and pasta and cereal,” Vonn told Women’s Health. “I need everything to be laid out for me, otherwise I divert quickly.”

5. She Loves Beyond Meat

While Vonn is not a vegan or on a plant-based diet, she still likes plant-based products. She tells Women’s Health that she will occasionally incorporate Beyond products into her diet. “Sometimes I’ll do some Beyond Meat patties or Beyond Meat Sausage, if I want to have something good that’s not from our meal plan.”

Lindsey Vonn is taking a much-needed break in her bathing suit. The former pro skier shows off her insanely fit figure in a bathing suit in one of her latest social media posts, shared from a much-needed getaway in the tropics. “Took a quit break last weekend,” she captioned the post. “Thankful for those amazing few days. Now it’s back on the road again for your regularly scheduled hustle.” How did she get into the best shape of her life post-retirement? Read on to see 6 of Lindsey Vonn’s top diet and fitness tips for staying in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. Revamp Your Approach to Fitness

How did Lindsey get "a lot leaner" after she retired from skiing?. "I used to do things that were so sport specific, so I had to be bigger," she told New York Post's Alexa magazine. "But everyone is like, 'Oh my God, you're in the best shape of your life.' It's like — yes and no. I'm not training for my sport anymore, I am training to be lean and fit." She is down to her lowest body fat percentage of her life, 15 percent—five percent less than her all-time low of 19 percent. "Different training. Different diet. Crazy!"

2. Eat Clean

Vonn’s “ski season” diet included “a lot of protein and carbs,” she told People. However, Phil Goglia revamped her diet on it now focuses on drinking a lot of water, eating clean food, and timing her meals. “I try not to eat too much in the morning before I work out,” she told Women’s Health. “I’m not working out crazy hard, but I notice I feel better; not as weighed down.” After exercising Lindsey eats “egg white omelets with broccoli, chicken, and pepper, and stuff like that.” For lunch, she chooses between chicken or salmon with kale or cabbage. Dinner is also a mix of protein and veggies – like chicken salad with avocado or a zucchini pasta with bolognese meat sauce. Her favorite snacks are almonds, kiwis, and blueberries.

3. Strength Train Hard

Vonn is serious about exercise and hard-core strength training. She trains with Gunnar Peterson and isn’t afraid of lifting heavy weights. Her workouts are a combo of strength and weight training, using a lot of weighted balls, battle ropes, lifts, squats. You can check out one of her workouts here. And, she never skips a workout.

4. Eat As Plant-Based As Possible

Lindsey does eat meat and animal products but she does slip in plant-based foods when she can. “Listen, the kitchen can be intimidating to anyone. But I’m here to tell you: You can do it. And with the new year, let’s do it better, together. I’ve got 14 places to help you start eating more plant-based foods,” she captioned a post, suggesting the Just Egg cookbook to her followers. “Now, if only every new year’s resolution came with a side of omelets.”

5. Find a Winter Sport You Love

Lindsey still spends a lot of time on the slopes. “Finally got to ski with my girl @chelseahandler! What an epic day of powder,” she captioned a recent post. Research has linked downhill skiing to a number of health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress and the occurrence of memory deficits declines.

6. Find an Active Vacation Hobby

As can be demonstrated by Lindsey’s latest social media posts, she doesn’t allow herself to be lazy on vacation. “Nerded out with all my new free diving gear (thx Mares🤿 🙏🏻) and got to play footsie with some very friendly stingrays,” she captioned it. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

"Whether it is a park in your neighborhood or exploring the vast landscapes of national forests and grasslands, there are benefits to be had when we step outside," says the Forest Service. “Wellness is wholistic in that it is comprised of physical and mental health as well as the health of our communities,” Michelle Kondo, a research social scientist with the USDA Forest Service's Northern Research Station, told them. “All of these benefits add up and reduce adverse impacts on our bodies, and have restorative characteristics. So get outdoors and enjoy nature’s gift of wellness.”

Hearing from her family stuck in Ukraine, was absolutely heartbreaking. Ukrainians are strong and United while facing this unreal war. If Ukraine stops fighting there will be no Ukraine. One of the tragic yet beautiful calls from her sibling who was trying to flee and stay with her family, was going to go back in and fight to stand strong against PUTIN. That’s the character and moral of Ukrainians. Women refusing to leave as their husbands prepare to fight back.They are beautiful and strong, this will be the biggest refugee situation this century. Please donate, and to @kseniya__stone we stand with you, we stand with Ukraine.”
