1. It Starts with Self-Love

Storm maintains that staying in shape is an inside job. "To have an overall healthy body, for me, it's really [about] self-love and making sure that I take care of myself, whether that is moving my body or taking time off and resting my body," she tells Shape. "It's about putting good things into my body, but having that balance of giving myself a little leeway. It depends on each person, but when a person is healthy mentally and emotionally, then physically they'll probably be healthier as well." She adds: "Of course, there's the aesthetic part of it and you want to look a certain way," she adds. "But it doesn't matter what you look like on the outside if you're not happy on the inside."
2. Her Mom Is Her Workout Inspiration and Workout Buddy
Reid maintains that her mom Robyn Simpson is her fitspiration. "I started to take [fitness] more seriously two years ago because my mom is a very physical person, and I always saw her working out," she says. The two regularly exercise together. "Of course we're working out, but we're also goofing off or listening to music," she says about her sweat sessions with her. “She's my motivator, and I feel like she feels the same way about me. It's not something that needs to be taken so seriously where it starts to feel like a toll or a burden. You should feel free. We approach fitness and wellness in the macro level of how we feel emotionally."
3. She Does Cardio and Strength Training

Storm does strength training and cardio. "I love a good leg day," she says, adding that she challenges herself with cardio, doing 30-second treadmill sprints or laps around the basketball court. "I try to put my game face on and just move," she says.
4. She Runs
Storm loves to run. She was recently featured in a New Balance campaign in which they documented her “new running journey.” According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.
5. She Takes a Holistic Approach to Diets
Storm reveals to Shape that she takes a holistic approach to diet. "I try not to put too much pressure on myself or unrealistic expectations when it comes to eating a certain way," she says. Some days she will "eat six chocolate chip cookies" and others, fruit. "I'm a big fruit person, so there's always lots of pineapples and apples in my house," she says. "I'm [also] a big fiend for cherries and peaches. Those are my main fruits that my mom keeps stocked in the kitchen because I'm always down there trying to find a snack."
