1. She Lifts Hand Weights

In this reel from her Instagram, Conde is seen lifting hand weights to work out. Using weights is a great way to stay in shape, but some of the heavier ones can be difficult to lift for some. Hand weights are a great way to do strength training exercises, without hurting yourself. “A set of dumbbells and a willingness to use them can work wonders,” Robert Freed, D.O., an orthopedic surgeon at Mayo Clinic Health System in Mankato, Minnesota, says in a Mayo Clinic post.

Conde is a singer and performer. Naturally, this means she has to do a lot of dancing. Conde has posted several videos on Instagram of herself learning choreography and performing. She’s also a fan of doing TikTok and Instagram reel dances with her friends. A ballet or barre class can be a great workout. “Improving endurance is the goal of most people who exercise regularly. Ballet will not only transform your body to have explosive power, you will also have much more stamina. After attending ballet classes for a few months, you may be pleasantly surprised how you can now jog up a flight of stairs without getting out of breath. Your increased endurance is one of the best physical benefits of ballet training,” says NAMHPAC.

3. She Goes To The Beach

Conde loves to go outside, specifically, she loves to spend time by the beach. Conde has posted several photos on Instagram of herself enjoying time by the beach and by the water. Going to the beach isn’t just a great way to spend time in the sun, it can also be a way to relax. The sound of waves crashing are very pleasant, and sounds like those have been linked to helping people sleep and unwind. According to a study in Applied Acoustics, “When at rest, sounds perceived as pleasant produced lower skin conductance levels compared to sounds perceived as unpleasant. Together these findings suggest that autonomic function during stress recovery and at rest can be influenced by subjective response to the acoustic environment.”

4. She Has A Personal Trainer

Conde, like many people, likes to work out with a personal trainer. She posted this reel with him while the two were at the gym. Using a personal trainer can have a lot of benefits for your health and working out. In addition to motivating you, having a personal trainer can help you target areas that you want targeting,a dn prevent you from getting hurt. Sports dietician and certified strength and conditioning specialist, Marie Spano, MS, RD, says, “Your personal trainer can work with your doctor or physical therapist to assess injuries and modify exercises to help get you back up and running.” According to a study done by Ace Fitness, personal trainers are also great at explaining exercises to their clients. “Fitness can be confusing. There is a lot of information to sort through. Eat this, not that. Cardio before or after strength training? Your trainer can help you find credible information and provide direction on your fitness journey. A trainer can help remove the guesswork so you can put all your energy toward accomplishing your goals.”
