Tennis Star Eugenie Bouchard in Swimsuit Is “Magnifique”

Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard is asking fans for their input on her style choices—and that includes swimsuits, too. Bouchard, 29, shared pictures of herself posing in a variety of different outfits, with one snap showing her posing in a soft pink bikini and white shirt on top. “1 2 3 or 4,” she captioned the post. “Magnifique,” a fan commented, with others giving their opinions on which outfit they liked the best. How does the tennis champion stay in shape while living a balanced, happy life? Here are 5 ways Bouchard trains and stays competition-ready.

1. Hardcore Training

Bouchard spends four to six hours on the court every day. “I spend most of my time on the tennis court,” she says. “I wake up at 8 and eat eggs for the protein, fruits, and orange juice. Then I hit the tennis court for two hours working mainly on my technique. After lunch, I spend about another two hours on the tennis court before heading to the gym. As a tennis player, I have to work on my strength and cardio. I find the game of tennis has become more physical, and players are spending more time at the gym… When I do have some free time, I lie on the couch and relax, physically and mentally. It’s important to take time away from tennis. When I can, I head to Montreal to visit my family. I’m not there often because I train in Florida. I miss my siblings, but it’s the sacrifice I’ve made.”

2. All the Bananas

Bouchard says she eats 5 bananas a day, and claims other athletes also eat a lot of the fruit. “They’re full of nutrients and easy on the gut. Very few people have problems digesting bananas," says registered dietitian Elyse Homan, RD, LD. Bananas are high in potassium and vitamin C, as well as B6. “One banana will give you one-quarter to one-third of the vitamin B6 you need in a day,” Homan says.

3. Massages and Physiotherapy

Bouchard relies on massages and physiotherapy to relax after matches. “In the match, you have so much adrenaline going. It takes a couple of hours for your body to relax after that,” she says. “Night matches are especially tough, because it’s 11 p.m. or midnight and I need to try sleeping, but I just finished [playing]. A lot of times I can’t sleep until 2 or 3 a.m. I try to think about something else besides the match that just happened, because I’m usually still worked up about it. I watch TV or try to keep it really low key.”

4. Building Muscle

Bouchard’s focus in her training is to put on muscle, as she believes it will give her the edge over the competition. The athlete has posted video on her social media of herself hitting the gym and combining strength and resistance training to get stronger and fitter. “I want to get stronger. I want to get bigger. I want to put on muscle,” she previously said. “I feel like in the past year I haven’t been strong enough on the court.”

5. Social Media vs Real Life

Bouchard says her social media doesn’t always reflect the amount of time she spends training. “People can say I’m not spending enough time training and things like that,” she says. “I’m like, ‘OK, do you work 24 hours a day?’ I train six hours a day and then I go to the movies, but what I will post will be about the movies because—to me—that’s the most interesting part of my day since I play tennis and work out every single day of my life! I don’t need to try to prove to you that I’m working out. I know what I’m doing every single day, and I don’t need people’s acceptance of what I do. I’ll post whatever I want, and I don’t care what people say.”

Belinda Bencic shared some of her wellness secrets with Women Fitness. “I don’t have a key diet that I follow,” she admits. “But of course I’m watching what I eat. I need to stay fit, of course, and healthy and of course, watch my weight all the time. So I’m just trying to eat healthy and just see what works best for me. I have like a routine before the match. I eat rice with olive oil and salt. I think it’s the best for me.”

In 2015, Coco Vandeweghe opened up about her tennis career to Wimbledon.com. “I think it's more just finding comfortability with just who I am. I think early on, especially when I was starting full time on the tour, I was more concerned with, you know, watching how my peers were doing and seeing how well that they were doing and how I wasn't doing as well. That was kind of definitely getting to me a little bit where I was getting very frustrated at that, because I felt like, you know, I can beat these girls that are my peers and I beat them on practice, even in matches sometimes.”

3. Naomi Osaka

Naomi Osaka shared her favorite foods in an interview with PureWow.com. “Typically, when I wake up in the morning, the first thing I do is drink a smoothie that my trainer Yutaka [Nakamura] makes me. It has kale, spinach, Coconut BODYARMOR LYTE…I feel like it has kiwi in it. It’s a guessing game for me but that’s the first thing I drink and then normally I have rye bread with smoked salmon and avocado.”

In order to play tennis, Rafaal Nadal has to prioritize his recovery. He told GQ in 2012 that he works with physio Rafael Maymo to help him prevent injuries.

Serena Williams’ trainer, Patrick Mouratoglou, tells Shape Magazine that he has her do workouts that will help her on the court. "I'll have her do technical runs side to side, and randomly determine where she's going to run… We can make an exercise where she has to run right, right, left, right, left, left, right, left. Something like that, but she'll go when I signal and they're not in the same time intervals so she doesn't know when it's going to happen."

8. Maria Sharapova

Maria Sharapova shared some of her fitness secrets with Harper’s Bazaar. “I train five or six times a week for six hours a day with my trainer, Yutaka Nakamura, or one of my coaches.

And when you're coming back, you never know what to expect.”

10. Simona Halep

11. Ashleigh Barty

My perspective on life has changed a lot and I am doing everything to give myself a second chance to be back on the court. I thank you for staying with me through this.”

13. Dominic Thiem

Dominic Thiem makes sure to workout on a regular basis. He shared his favorite exercises in an interview with Men’s Journal. “I try to do something every day. When there are no tournaments, I do a pretty tough program—even twice a day. When I'm in the tournament, I reduce it a little bit, but still, I try to do something every day. My routine is very intense, but it’s normal exercises that many people probably do, too: a lot of strength work, speed work, and a little bit of endurance with lots of core work. I like crunches and Supermans. I really love to do core exercises because they don’t only make you fit, they also make you look good.”

14. Ons Jabeur

In an interview with Muscle and Fitness, Ons Jabeur opened up about how she gets ready for tennis season. “At the end of the year, usually around November or December, I do 10 days of just fitness. It’s a lot of running and cardio to get my body ready for what’s coming next. After those 10 days, usually the loads of fitness training are more than tennis [training]. I try to concentrate more on strength. When we’re going toward the tournaments in January, I train more on tennis and the fitness aspect becomes more specific to what I need on the court, such as my specific movements.”

15. Stan Wawrinka

Stan Wawrinka opened up about his diet in an interview with GQ. He says that because of his schedule, he can’t really have a set diet. “Sometimes we have a match at 11 in the morning, sometimes at 9 p.m. We need to always be adapting, we don’t have a match at the same time every week so it’s important to be open with everything.”

16. Johanna Konta

Johanna Konta likes to workout at home sometimes. She shared her tips for doing so in an interview with Grazia Daily. “You don't need access to a lot of equipment at home to get a great workout done,” Konta says. “Use your own body weight with classic exercises such as press-ups, sit-ups and planks, or get creative using tinned foods or bottles of water to add some weight. It's amazing how heavy a backpack can get if you fill it.''

17. Caroline Wozniacki

Caroline Wozniacki revealed how she stays fit in an interview with GQ. “For me, it was always more cardio, and then a little bit of lifting. But now that I’m older, I’d say it’s 50-50. That’s to make sure that my body stays strong and I can prevent injuries. I’m a big runner, but my body can’t take as much of the pounding, so I’ve had to cut down on that a little bit. Now I use the elliptical, the bike, the StairMaster—all sorts of things to get my heart rate up and save my body.”

18. Victoria Azarenka

In a 2015 interview with ESPN, Victoria Azarenka shared her favorite morning smoothie recipe. “A smoothie with raspberry, banana, mint, almond milk and almond butter.
