She Does Pilates

As you can see from her Instagram story, Bevarly does a lot of Pilates to keep herself in shape. Kennedy Fitness states that it has a lot of benefits. “Pilates places a premium focus on flexibility, and for good reason. Increasing your flexibility and mobility can be a key to unlocking your body’s fitness potential by giving the range of motion you need to excel at all other forms of physical performance and training, from running and swimming to intensive weight training.”

She Swims

Bevarly spends a lot of time outside. One outdoor activity she enjoys doing is going swimming. Bevarly shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself at the beach. She shared this set of photos of herself wading, captioning it, “Endless summer.” Bevarly also shared this video of herself in the water, and captioned it, “Mentally back on this island.” She also shared this video of herself enjoying a pool day.

She Does Squats

Bevarly shared this video on Instagram of herself doing different lower body workouts. One thing she is seen doing in it is squats. Bevarly captioned the post, “Leg days are my favorite.” The Cleveland Clinic states that squats have a lot of health benefits. “Squats target and strengthen your thighs, hips and butt. Why does that matter? A strong lower body is important for athletes, yes, but not just for athletes. Your lower body fuels your ability to walk, run, jump … everything, really. It also generates power for upper-body movements and all kinds of other activities.”

She Does Glute Bridges

Bevarly is also seen doing glute bridges in the previous Instagram video. NASM states that doing these can lead to many benefits. “After hours of sitting at your desk, sitting behind the wheel, and sitting on the couch, the glutes can become underactive. Over time, our bodies adapt to long hours of sitting, resulting in unwanted back pain and tightness, along with some faulty movement patterns. One way to help reverse this issue (in addition to breaking up sitting time) is to incorporate glute bridging into your workout routine. The glute bridge is most often used as an exercise to activate the glutes and build core stability.”

She Strength Trains

Bevarly likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. In the previous Instagram video, she is seen using a dumbbell and weighted machine. ACE Fitness states that strength training can be very beneficial. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

She Golfs

Amanda is an avid golfer. In golf, even if you’ve mastered the swing, you’ll never be satisfied if your mental game is weak, and vice versa. Golf is sneaky demanding of both physical and mental strength,” she told Golf. A comprehensive review published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that golf's health benefits are extensive, including mind, body, and even lifespan. Benefits include improved longevity, decreased risk of developing heart disease or suffering a stroke, good mental health, and improved strength and balance.

She Takes Baths

Amanda enjoys hot water therapy in the form of baths. Why should you consider a soak? Baths have been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.

She Snowboards

In the winter, you can find Amanda snowboarding. “Jackson is a Hole vibe (I’m sorry I’m this way 😂),” she captioned an Instagram post from the slopes. According to the University of Rochester, snowboarding, like skiing, is a great cardiovascular workout. “Because they are also weight-bearing exercises, they strengthen your bones as they tone your muscles,” they say. “Cardiovascular or aerobic exercises also work to reduce your risk for chronic diseases, and lower blood pressure. They also help you maintain a healthy body weight. Through regular aerobic exercise like skiing and snowboarding, you lower your risk of developing conditions like diabetes and heart disease, having a stroke, and perhaps even getting cancer.”

She Lifts Weights

Amanda also strength trains. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

• Develop strong bones
• Manage your weight
• Enhance your quality of life
• Manage chronic conditions
• Sharpen your thinking skills

Yoga

Amanda is a yogi. “Through controlled breath and meditative movements, practicing yoga has taught me how to stay calm during difficult situations. About three years after I discovered the practice, I became certified in Baptiste-style training. It was an intense 200-hour journey that transformed my mind because it forced me to sort through my own issues before having the capacity to teach others. I now teach whenever I can, and I continue to practice yoga at least a few times a week—the length of each session ranges from 10 to 90 minutes, depending on how stressed I am that day,” she told Golf. “I’ve reaped more mental benefits from yoga as I’ve become physically stronger, and that’s why golf and yoga are far more similar than people realize.” During her recent travels she even did yoga at the SFO airport.

Pilates

In her recent video Amanda does Pilates. Why is pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic there are lots of benefits to the workout, as it “strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility resulting in improved overall health.” It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.
