And, change your attitude! “Lastly, don’t look at exercise and diet as something to dread,” says Jenkins. “Healthy living and moving your body are a way of life and don’t happen overnight. Most importantly, don’t forget a positive attitude. It will set you up for long-term success.”

Hydration

Hydration is also key. “It would be best if you started well-hydrated before you even get moving. Signs like dark urine color will tell you that you need to up your fluid intake before hitting the gym. During a workout, we activate our sweat glands to help cool down the body, which depletes our internal water levels. Dehydration occurs when fluid losses exceed fluid consumed through both foods and drinks. It can impact everything from athletic performance and muscle recovery to mood, alertness, concentration and short-term memory,” she told Abbott.

Diet

If you want to get in shape, you will have to modify your diet as well. “Whether you’re looking to burn fat or strengthen your muscles, you must pay attention to your meal plan just as much as your workout plan,” Jenkins told Abbott. “In general, most people don’t understand how many calories they eat in a day or how many calories they should be eating. If you are trying to burn body fat or slim down, you need to have a calorie negative at the end of the day.” The first step is understanding “what you are eating and how many calories are in your chosen foods,” she claims. “There are 3,500 calories in one pound of fat. If you have a calorie negative of -500 a day, you can achieve a calorie negative of -3500 in a week (7 days) to help you burn off 1 pound of fat. It takes time to learn about the food you put in your body, but it’s necessary, and that knowledge you gain will remain with you for a lifetime. Also, take time to meal prep. Spending an hour at the beginning of your week planning meals will save time and calories.”

She Does Pilates

Pilates is the main thing that keeps Abdin in shape. According to Better Health, it has a lot of health benefits. “The health benefits of Pilates include: improved flexibility, increased muscle strength and tone, particularly of your abdominal muscles, lower back, hips and buttocks (the ‘core muscles’ of your body), balanced muscular strength on both sides of your body, enhanced muscular control of your back and limbs, improved stabilisation of your spine, improved posture.”

She Works Her Abs

In her Instagram post, Abdin is seen doing a lot of core workouts. According to Harvard Health, having strong core muscles is extremely important. “Whether you're hitting a tennis ball or mopping the floor, the necessary motions either originate in your core, or move through it. No matter where motion starts, it ripples upward and downward to adjoining links of the chain. Thus, weak or inflexible core muscles can impair how well your arms and legs function. And that saps power from many of the moves you make. Properly building up your core cranks up the power. A strong core also enhances balance and stability. Thus, it can help prevent falls and injuries during sports or other activities. In fact, a strong, flexible core underpins almost everything you do.”

She Uses an Exercise Ball

Abdin likes to use an exercise ball to workout. She shared this post on Instagram of herself doing lower body exercises with one. In it, Abdin is seen doing things like calf raises, toe taps, and hip lifts with the ball. She captioned the post, “Glutes, hamstrings, thighs, and calves! 🦵🦵 🤍 Your stability ball should be firm and bouncy, neither under nor overinflated. It should give slightly when you sit on it. 🤍 Go slowly and controlled, that is more effective than rushing through the movements. 🤍 Do each move 10-5 reps. 🤍 1-2 rounds if you're pairing this with yesterday's core routine. 3-4 rounds if this is your full workout today.”

She Uses Weights

Abdin also likes to use weights to workout. She shared some of her favorite dumbbell exercises in this Instagram post. Abdin is seen doing things like reach-over crunches and straight-leg situps with them. She captioned the post, “Spicy moves for core, obliques, and back muscles. If you don't have a dumbbell, improvise with a soup can or water bottle. Do each move 10-15 reps. Go 2-4 rounds.”

She Uses Resistance Bands

Abdin shared this post on Instagram of herself using a resistance band to workout. She is seen doing exercises like hamstring curls, straight leg pulses, and squat walks. Abdin captioned the post, “Seven moves. Use the thickest resistance band you can, while still maintaining good form. You can always switch to a lighter band on your second or third round if the stronger band exhausts your muscles after the first round. 🤍 Do each move 10-15 reps on each side. 🤍 Stretch at least one minute. 🤍 Repeat for 3-5 rounds.”
