She Loves Fish

When it comes to her diet, Morris revealed on Instagram that she's a fan of fish and seafood. Morris posted a series of photos from a night out at a sushi restaurant, including oysters and tuna. She captioned the photo series, "You are what you eat." "For many years, the American Heart Association has recommended that people eat fish rich in unsaturated fats at least twice a week. The unsaturated fats in fish are called omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids and other nutrients in fish may benefit heart health and reduce the risk of dying of heart disease," says the Mayo Clinic. "Some people are concerned about mercury or other contaminants in seafood. However, the benefits of eating fish as part of a healthy diet usually outweigh the possible risks of exposure to contaminants."

Morris spent her summer in Tennessee with her old friends from Texas, and one of her activities included spending time on the water. Morris shared a series of photos on Instagram in July, which include her swimming with friends, and spending time on a boat. "The good news is that the fresh air and open spaces provided by the outdoors encourage families to be active together. Research has shown that kids that come from an active home environment are more likely to be physically active when they get older. Active families are healthy families," says ACE Fitness.

She Plays Golf

According to this photo on Instagram, Morris and her husband like to go to the golf course. She captioned the photo, "Tutorial on how to get a great photo: don't let your husband take what you think is a great photo." "Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and rotated slightly outward, and with your knees slightly bent. Hold your spine relatively straight. Your trunk should be tilted forward, but most of that movement should come from your hips. Avoid hunching over the ball, which may lead to neck and back strain," says the Mayo Clinic.

She Plays Tennis

In addition to playing golf, Morris is also a fan of playing tennis. She shared this photo on Instagram of her at the court. "While tennis provides numerous health benefits—improved aerobic fitness and anaerobic endurance, muscular fitness (grip strength and endurance), flexibility, multiple skill parameters (balance, speed, agility and quickness), reactivity, and power—it also is psychologically demanding," says ACE Fitness.

In order to get in shape for her 2018 wedding to singer Ryan Hurd, Morris revealed that she started using a personal trainer, and that it really helped her wellness routine. "I'd always worked out really intermittently and done yoga and hot yoga but had never really used a trainer before, and I really wanted to get toned," she said to Women's Health. "I didn't necessarily want to lose weight, I wanted to feel strong, so I definitely do feel strong now, which is nice."

She also says that she eats most of her daily carbs in the morning.
