• Pump Extreme (Pre-workout)

HIIT and Cardio for Weight Loss

When trying to cut down Ana uses a “combination of both” HIIT and cardio. “Some days I will do LIIS cardio (Low Intensity Steady State) and others I’ll do HIIT sprints (High Intensity Interval Training). But I prefer HIIT sprints because I find them more challenging and fun!” she says.

Circuit Training

Ana is a fan of circuit training. “I love to work in circuits (supersets, tri-sets and giant sets) when I lift because it keeps my heart rate up through the workout and it’s great when you’re pressed for time. I also love to do drop-sets on any muscle group I need to emphasize,” she told Simply Shredded.

Her Three Favorite Exercises

Ana revealed her three favorite exercises to Simply Shredded.

1. Stiff Leg Deadlifts: “They are great for tightening the back of my leg and works great on the glute/hamstring tie in. I also love the burn I get from it every time,” she says.
2. Arnold Press: “It has helped me gain some decent size on my deltoids. Truly a great compound exercise,” she adds.
3. Lunges: “This exercise can be performed anywhere and has also been a huge help in getting my quads and hamstrings in shape,” she explains.

Here's What She Eats in a Day

Kerly shared a sample day of eating, starting with breakfast: 3 egg whites and 1 whole egg

30g of oats or 1/2 potatoes. Next up, a snack, a protein shake and 2 small Colombian potatoes. Then, for lunch she has 140g chicken with 100g rice and a green salad. For a snack she has 90g shrimp and zucchini vegetable pasta. And finally, for dinner she has 110g of fish with 1 egg and green salad.

Intermittent Fasting

In order to “lose weight, burn fat and get super fit” Kerly intermittent fasts, which she calls her eating method. Intermittent fasting works by “prolonging the period when your body has burned through the calories consumed during your last meal and begins burning fat,” explains Johns Hopkins Medicine.

Low Carb Diet

Kerly is on a low carb diet, she told El Estimulo, revealing she only eats “light” sandwiches. “I try not to eat a lot of bread because it makes my belly bigger, but when I can, I use whole wheat bread. I try to combine it with protein, which is very important to maintain muscle. I like to put some dressings that give flavor to the sandwich so that the diet is pleasant and I don't get bored,” she says. “Olives, avocado, olive oil, alfalfa, whole wheat toast, a grilled chicken breast and a little mustard, because it's the only dressing that doesn't have calories. No mayonnaise, no tomato sauce.”

She Counts Calories

“My diet only allows me a low-calorie sandwich, between 150 and 180 calories, which could be eaten mid-morning - I eat 6 times a day - because you can't eat carbohydrates at night. I try to find the right flavors, since I live on a diet. I put a little bit of what I have at home, avocado, which even though it has fat, it's the good kind, tomato too, so to speak, you can't overdo it either, and olive oil, which is a good fat for the body, skin, hair and nails,” she added.

No Mayo

One ingredient that she would never put in a sandwich? “Mayonnaise because I think that first of all it's greasy for the skin, it gives you acne and secondly it goes to your belly, your rolls. I don't like mayonnaise at all,” she said.

She Works Her Legs

Teixeira doesn’t skip leg day. She shared some of her favorite exercises in this Instagram video. Teixeira is seen doing things like squats and glute bridges. She captioned it, “Building them glutes 1 day at a time 💪🏼 #gluteworkout Save it and use it for your next Glute workout this way you don’t need to overthinking on what to do when you get to the gym 👊🏼🔥”

She Engages Her Muscles

Teixeira makes sure that her muscles are engaged when she works out. She shared her tips for doing this in lunges in the caption of this Instagram post. “The way you perform your lunges can change the muscles it activates. 🤓When you step forward you will activate more your quadriceps muscles than the glutes. But if you step backwards you will activate more your glutes than your quads. And if you keep your chest up you will feel more in your quads while if you keep your chest forward you will feel more in your glutes. I always perform it stepping backwards and with my chest forward to activate more the glutes than the quads because you know, us Bikini girls are all about the 🍑.”

She Strength Trains

Teixeira is seen pushing a weighted cart in this Instagram video. Strength training exercises like these have a lot of health benefits. ACE Fitness states, “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

She Works Out With Others

In the previous Instagram video, Teixeira is seen working out with one of her friends. Better Health states that this can have a lot of health benefits. “Exercising with a friend or loved one can make it more fun, and increase your chances of sticking to your exercise plan. Exercising with a friend is a great way to keep you motivated. It’s also a great way to meet new people. It can even save you money.”

She Uses A Waist Trainer

Teixeira revealed in the caption of this Instagram post that she uses a weight trainer to help with her muscles. “Wearing the @slimtum waist trainer original and also the Slimtum Pro has helped me a lot to slim down my waist line comparing to my last prep. 🥳I wear the Original size 4 for upper body workouts and outside the gym I wear size 3 for about 2 more hours a day, I prefer to wear it when I’m standing doing something in the house or walking around running errands like grocery shopping.🛒For my lower body workouts I like to wear the Slimtum Pro size 2. It gives the best protection to my lower back, midsection and keeps my waist small when I’m lifting heavier weights.”
