Rachel Stuhlmann, known for her dynamic presence as a model and tennis influencer, brings her passion for wellness, sports, and fitness to every aspect of her life. In a recent Instagram post, she shared behind-the-scenes glimpses of creating her content, showcasing her dedication to the sport and the energy she brings to each shoot. "BTS filming of a tennis drill w the bestie😭💕🎾," she captioned the video, giving fans a sneak peek into her content creation process. Whether she's playing tennis, staying disciplined in her fitness routine, or sharing her wellness journey, Stuhlmann's approach is all about intentionality and joy. Here's a closer look at the habits that keep her active, healthy, and balanced.

Tennis is one of the ways that Stuhlmann stays in shape. Better Health states that tennis has a lot of health benefits. "Playing tennis has many health benefits including: increasing aerobic capacities, lowering resting heart rate and blood pressure, improving metabolic function, increasing bone density, lowering body fat, improving muscle tone, strength and flexibility, increasing reaction times."

Stuhlmann also plays pickleball to keep herself in shape. The Cleveland Clinic states that the sport has a lot of benefits. "Sports like pickleball stress your muscles and bones. Your body responds by making them stronger. Routine pickleball play can help you: Improve muscle strength. Prevent osteoporosis, a disease that weakens your bones and can lead to fractures."

Stuhlmann opened up about her wellness journey in an interview with Fitness Gurls. "My whole life has been tennis; however, there was a short time right after college when I shifted much of my focus from the tennis world to fitness training. I think I was just so excited to be finished with only being able to do tennis-specific workouts and for the first time in my life, I had the freedom to do whatever workouts I wanted to! I began weight training, working out extremely hard, and focusing on my nutrition. I went all in; I did two strategic workouts a day and followed a weighed-out meal plan given to me by a nutritionist who helped me reach my goals."

Stuhlmann talked about the discipline that she gained from tennis in her Fitness Gurls interview. "I loved being an athlete, and playing college tennis taught me many qualities—time management, work ethic, and resilience. Committing to my studies was not as easy for me as developing my tennis career. Fortunately, I was provided with great tutors and mentors at Mizzou that helped me stay on top of my studies. Sometimes outsourcing and working as a team with other people is a good way to succeed. I was super disciplined with my training and workout routines, and once I finished playing in college, I transferred that into my professional career. Now instead of preparing and training for big tennis matches, I focus on everything I have going on in my professional life and how I can best show up for all the various work I do within the sport."

Stuhlmann likes to plan out her workouts ahead of time. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. "I told you that this year I'm hitting these workouts hard, and with confidence!☺️🔥🧡💪With such a busy schedule, it's important for me to have efficient and effective workouts & meal plans. Through years of experience (and trial & error🙂), I have figured out what works for me to stay fit and healthy!💯😌"
