She lifts weights

During her workout routine, lifting weights and feeling strong is an extremely important part of the process. "The gym makes me happy in a different way 🦸🏼‍♀️🦸🏼‍♀️🦸🏼‍♀️," she said on a video of her deadlifting on Instagram. "You don't need to spend hours a day lifting weights to benefit from strength training. You can see significant improvement in your strength with just two or three 20- or 30-minute strength training sessions a week," according to the Mayo Clinic.

She rests

She takes days off to rest from intense workouts when her body needs a brief break. "Rest days in the garden where I just lay on the grass, watch birds and embrace the messy hair, ugh LOVE it #goodmorning 🦋🪲🌿🌾," she said on Instagram. "Just like your body needs sleep every night to recover from the day, it also needs occasional rest days to recover from workouts. Taking some downtime between exercise sessions is essential for building strength and preventing injury. Experts recommend taking at least one day off from your daily workout routine each week. Taking a rest day after a particularly long or intense workout can be especially helpful," according to UCLA Health.

She cools down

Preparing your body during warm-ups and cool downs before and after workouts can be an important part of the journey. "Cooling down after the 49 run 🥵," she said on Instagram. "Cooling down after a workout is as important as warming up. After physical activity, your heart is still beating faster than normal, your body temperature is higher and your blood vessels are widened. This means if you stop too fast, you could feel sick or pass out. A cool-down after physical activity allows a gradual decrease at the end of the episode," according to heart.org.

She deadlifts

She incorporates deadlifting into her workouts, weightlifting to build strength. "OMGGGGGG sharing this moment with you guys because I'm soooooooo proud!!!!!!! 110 kg!!!! 🤝🏼❤️‍🔥 And don't try to play coach and tell me stuff about technique," she said on Instagram on a video of her hitting 110 kg.
