Mandy Rose in Bathing Suit is "Holding Onto That Summer Feeling"

WWE star Amanda Rose Saccomanno (aka Mandy Rose) is not just an athlete, she’s a performer. As a professional wrestler, Rose essentially trains for a living—and her incredibly toned physique is proof of her hard work. Rose posted a photo of herself on Instagram posing in a green bathing suit, with the caption “Holding onto that summer feeling… @harrylhgfx @kl_swimwear.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Rose stays 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. She Is Realistic About Her Diet

Like most professional athletes, Rose is careful about her diet, following a mostly high-protein regimen. But she refuses to obsess over it. “Overall, I try to be consistent,” she tells Muscle and Fitness. “But sometimes you just have to eat what’s available. I’m lucky to have good genes. And life’s all about balance… If I want to eat some cheese or a doughnut, I don’t worry about it. I’ve developed a lot of muscle mass over the years, so I make sure to consume enough protein. But I also love carbs.”

2. She Does HIIT Workouts

Here is Rose’s HIIT workout, as told to Muscle and Fitness:

Heavy Squat: 4 sets, 8-10 reps

Battle Ropes: 4 sets, 30-second reps

Burpee to Pullup: 4 sets, 10-12 reps

Boxing: 4 sets, 30-second reps

Med Ball Pushup: 4 sets, 12-15 reps

Rowing Machine: 4 sets, 30-second reps on/off

“Although aerobic exercise is a great tool in maintaining your heart health, as far as weight loss tactics go, that steady-state run isn’t the best calorie-burner,” says Julia Sullivan, CPT. “And while weight training is typically the most reliable weight loss tactic when it comes to fitness type (remember though, weight loss is achieved through a calorie deficit, which is most easily achieved through diet), if there is one form of cardio that blasts calories, it’s HIIT.”

3. Cardio Is Her therapy

“I usually work out five or six days per week, depending on my schedule, with each workout lasting about one and a half hours,” Rose says. “Right now, I do a little more cardio because I tend to eat more with the crazy schedule—I can’t diet as much as I used to. Cardio is a good way for me to warm up and acts almost as therapy for me.”

4. She Prioritizes Rest and Recovery

“Recovery is very important with how much we train,” Rose says. “Rest for me is No. 1, because I need my seven to eight hours of sleep every night. And whenever I can get body work done, like a massage or chiropractor session, I do it.”

“When starting a new fitness regime, we’re often told it’s important to take ‘rest days’ between workouts,” says Derek Ball, head of sport science, University of Aberdeen. “The reason many recommend rest days is to allow the body’s muscles to recover from any damage they’ve sustained during workouts, and to allow them to grow. And numerous scientific studies show that rest days do indeed play an important role in helping us maintain good health and fitness.”

5. She Really Does Love Doughnuts

Rose started Damandyz Donutz with fellow wrestler Sonya Deville (real name Daria Berenato). “Initially, Damandyz Donutz started off as a YouTube series where the two young entrepreneurs traveled the globe tasting and rating the best glazed donuts,” according to their website. “The pair recognizes that athletes, especially women are put under extreme pressure to look a certain way while eating a restrictive diet, and they combat these stereotypes to demonstrate that you can be in excellent shape while also enjoying the pleasures of life.”

Mandy Rose, the WWE wrestler and entrepreneur, has built a business around herself, and her fit figure is part of the business model. So it was no surprise when she shared an image of herself in a 44-degrees cold tub. “Cold tub rehab,” it was captioned—”so cold,” she said—and she followed it with a clip from a hot tub.

1. She Grew Up Playing Sports

“I grew up playing sports and dancing, so I loved staying super active. I wanted to get in better shape and get more involved in weight training. So the timing couldn’t be better when a friend of mine recommended that I should do a fitness competition. I fell in love with fitness and the way I was able to transform my body as well as live a healthier lifestyle. From there, I started to grow my following and sign a few different endorsement deals,” she told Entrepreneur.

2. She Works Out Bigtime

“I usually work out five or six days per week, depending on my schedule, with each workout lasting about one and a half hours,” Rose told Muscle & Fitness. “Right now, I do a little more cardio because I tend to eat more with the crazy schedule—I can’t diet as much as I used to,” she explains. “Cardio is a good way for me to warm up and acts almost as therapy for me.”

3. She Loves Lower Body Workouts

“My favorite body part to train is my lower body,” Rose says. “I get a great feeling after a good squat day or leg session. That rush of serotonin is part of why I continue to work out and live a healthy lifestyle,” she told M&F.

4. She Went Skiing

“First time skiing was a blast!” she posted recently. “Research shows that preconditioning before ski season will help improve your endurance, muscular strength and reaction times, and decrease your risk of injury. Injury risk rises dramatically with increased muscle fatigue, as our ability to maintain technique and form is compromised. So now is the time to get out those tennis shoes and whip yourself into shape,” says the Cleveland Clinic.

5. This is Why She’s So Successful

“A lot of it came from my youth, growing up with three older brothers, working three different jobs at the same time, having goals and working hard to achieve them, and most importantly learning to be independent. When I worked at my father’s deli in Carmel, New York when I was young, my experience waiting on customers and interacting with people all day taught me so many social skills and helped me open up. I was able to chat with different people from different backgrounds, and it shed a new light for me in the sense of being more personable and sociable, which is super relatable in everyday life,” she told Entrepreneur.

1. She Loves Oysters

Lawrence enjoys oysters, which are a great source of vitamin D, copper, selenium, iron, vitamin B12, and zinc. “Yes, oysters are very good for you,” says preventive cardiology dietitian Julia Zumpano, RD, LD. “In fact, you probably didn’t know that it’s hard to beat all the health benefits of oysters from a nutritional standpoint. Oysters can really pack a healthy punch. Think of oysters as little shells full of nutrients.”

2. She Stays True To Herself

Being on a reality show didn’t affect Lawrence’s sense of self. “For me it was easy because I just didn’t have to think about it,” she told COMPLEX. “I just said what I wanted to say, I did what I wanted to do. There wasn’t much thought into it because I was like, this is just who I am as a person. I look back and I’m like, OK, maybe I shouldn’t have done or said that, but then I’m like, well, I’m being authentic. So that’s me. And if people don’t like something that I did or said, then they might just not like me.”

3. She Loves Her “Beach Hair”

Lawrence isn’t a fan of the overly-groomed look, preferring messier “beach hair”. “A lot of people just tell me to brush my hair, which I don’t disagree with them,” she jokes. Lawrence’s hair might actually be healthier this way, experts say, "After only a day of not using irons or heat instruments to style the hair, it will be in the condition that our hair is which is dehydrated, fragile, dull, and lifeless," says Garnier celebrity hairstylist Millie Morales. "After a month, you will notice an incredible, stronger change in your hair. You would have recovered the hydration, the natural oils of your hair and would have strengthened the protective layer of the hair."

4. She Loves the Water

Lawrence has posted lots of snaps of herself frolicking in the ocean (in a bikini, of course!). “The color blue has been found by an overwhelming amount of people to be associated with feelings of calm and peace,” says clinical psychologist Richard Shuster, PsyD. “Staring at the ocean actually changes our brain waves’ frequency and puts us into a mild meditative state.”

5. She Loves to Dance

Lawrence enjoys dancing, based on her TikTok posts. “We know that movement is good for everyone,” says Emily Sandow, supervisor of dance physical therapy at NYU Langone’s Harkness Center for Dance Injuries. “A healthy lifestyle is integrating the mind, body and soul relationship, and dance has all of those characteristics. Everyone can do something, even if it’s just you just tapping your foot. Everyone can do something where they can move their body to music, and that’s really valuable.”

Rainford opened up about her career to Wonderland Magazine. She says that the pandemic made her want to go after new opportunities, like auditioning for Nova Jones. “I think with everything that happened, it made me realise that if I enjoy something I should just go ahead and do it,” she says. “I love music and I love making music and being an artist, but acting and drama have also been something that I really enjoyed, so when the opportunity came up to do some self tape auditions and auditions over Zoom, I jumped at the opportunity.”

2. She Doesn’t Rush Things

Rainford opened up about how her mindset has changed in her Wonderland Magazine interview. She says that she is taking things slow when it comes to her career, and is letting things happen on their own pace. “I think the biggest thing I’ve learnt is that everyone’s journey is different. Whether you’re just starting now, or been in it for a while, you shouldn’t rush things.”

3. She Focuses On Herself

Rainford isn’t comparing herself to others and is focusing on herself. “You should really work on yourself and your craft,” she tells Wonderland Magazine. “Just enjoy every moment because it’s so much fun when you get to do something you love. So just take it all in.”

4. She’s Not Trying To Be Perfect

Prior to appearing on Strictly, Rainford talked about her approach to the show in an interview with BBC One. She says that she didn’t want to put too much pressure on herself to be perfect and just enjoy herself on the show. “I can be a perfectionist. So trying not to stress too much about one specific thing, and worry about the overall product. I've heard from others that simplicity is key.”

5. She Goes To The Beach

Rainford loves to spend time by the water. She and her Strictly co-star, Fleur East, decided to take a beach vacation together to Barbados. Rainford shared this photo on Instagram of the two of them by the water. She captioned it, “From the ballroom to the beach.” MedIndia reports that going to the beach can have a positive impact on your mindset and wellbeing. “Listening to the waves crash against the shore calms brain activity, and the color blue offers a sense of relaxation, serenity, and peace, thereby releasing hormones such as dopamine and serotonin to reduce your stress levels. So, make sure to wash away your stress levels at the seaside.”
