Keep On Top of Your Health Issues
Sarah, who has battled major chronic kidney issues for many years and has been hospitalized many times, stays on top of her health conditions and keeps on fighting. She revealed to Seventeen that she suffers from kidney dysplasia, a condition in which kidneys don't develop properly in the womb and result in painful cysts. She underwent her first kidney transplant in April 2012, which failed and forced her to go on dialysis. Then, she underwent her second in 2017. She has also battled endometriosis and an abdominal hernia. "I was still in severe pain after the transplant, and that was due to the endo and the hernia," she told Self in 2018. By the end of that year, she had 16 surgeries behind her.
Do Strength Training Workouts
Sarah is all about hardcore workouts. She often trains at The Dogpound with Austin Pohlen. "Prep for a secret shoot next week! …but let's be real. The end goal is wedding body ready…." she said in a recent Instagram Story, revealing her workout routine. Hip raises on a medicine ball, reverse split squats with a barbell, kettlebell rows, and forward falls with resistance were all part of her routine. "These are SO much harder than they look."
She Rows
Sarah recently purchased a NordicTrack rowing machine, which is enabled with iFit interactive workouts. "So, I decided I needed to get… started, and I didn't really know how to do that so I went into my garage and I measured out space and I got a rowing machine," she revealed. "So, here it is. It is the NordicTrack rowing machine, which I just like to do this on," she said. "They have a bunch of different classes and I can pretend that I'm in Ireland y'all, not home!"
Work Out Consistently
If you want a body like Sarah's, work out almost every day. "I like to build muscle by strength training with my trainer," Sarah told Shape in 2017. "I do an hour-long full-body workout five to six days a week whenever I can. We focus on different body parts, and in between each one, I do one or two minutes of cardio. It's pretty intense."
Eat Healthy, But Cheat
"I'm the first one to pick up Taco Bell or a pizza. But as long as you account for it with exercise, you're fine. I believe in everything in moderation," she told Shape.
Try to Enjoy Exercise
If you enjoy working out, you are more likely to do it. "It's really fun for me. I get an endorphin rush and feel good about myself. Plus, my trainer is like my fit therapist! We talk about life, and before I know it, my sets are done," Sarah explains.
Spend Time in Nature
Sarah spends a lot of time in nature. She recently visited Big Sur, where she shared lots of photos of her outdoor adventures. Big Sur Birthday photo dump," she wrote. "@wellsadams surprised me with a weekend getaway filled with wine, deer, and, of course, tree hugging 🥰 Feeling full of gratitude, joy, and cheese," she captioned the series of snaps.
