Colleen Wolfe is in learning mode – in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the NFL Network host poses with her coworker Jane Slater in a two-piece exercise set. “Back to school 👯,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
1. She Loves This Grapefruit Meal
Healthy eating is at Colleen’s core “I’ll meet you guys at the beach after I finish all my work!” she captioned a post. *But first makes this unnecessary reel to put off said work.” In it, she reveals “the only way to eat a grapefruit,” sharing her recipe. First you carve the grapefruit, then add granola, “lil honey drizzle dizzle, cinnamon” and cook it for 12 minutes at 410 degrees before adding “bananas/berries/whatever the hell you want.”
2. Ice Skating
Colleen is an ice skater. She showed off some pretty impressive moves at Rockefeller Center. “This tree should file a restraining order against me,” she joked in the caption. According to Harvard Medical School, ice skating will burn up to 200 calories per hour. It is also great for joint and muscle health and helps improve balance and coordination.
3. Surfing
Colleen is a surfer. She posted this photo of herself carrying her board into the water. According to the Australian government’s Better Health, surfing provides many health benefits including cardiovascular fitness from paddling, shoulder and back strength, which also strengthens from the paddling, and leg and core strength. “Once you’re standing up on the board, strong legs and a strong core will keep you up,” they say.
4. Coffee
Colleen is a serious coffee drinker. “Was so delirious after our 4am London show I posted three versions of this photo. 🙄 So here’s one shot bc I really love that new studio in LA. Plus the pink was poppin. And I’ve slept and had more coffee AND I’M ON MY WAY TO PHILLY BABY,” she captioned a post. According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.
5. Reading
Colleen is a reader, and shares photos of the books she is reading. One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years compared with people who weren't readers or who read periodicals.
