Sanne Vloet In Workout Gear Shares Travel-Friendly Ab Routine
Dutch model Sanne Vloet is showing fans how to do an intense 10-minute ab workout with no equipment needed aside from a yoga mat. Vloet, 29, shared a video of herself wearing brown Alo Yoga shorts and a matching sports bra, going through the ab routine and explaining it. "Workouts you can do anywhere and anytime. While traveling I like to move my body, not because I have to but because it feels good. Roll out that mat or towel and listen to your body 💪🏼. Find this 10 min intense ab workout or other travel friendly workouts on the new girlies on the go playlist on @soulsyncbody," she captioned the post. Here's how the model stays fit, strong, and healthy, inside and out.
Gentle Mornings
Vloet is an early bird, and uses the mornings to ease into her day gently. "I usually wake up around 6:30 a.m. and will do my morning routine, including tongue scraping, brushing my teeth, and a quick skincare routine," she told Camille Styles. "After making a cup of tea, I take five minutes to journal my thoughts. Following this, I will do a 10-minute priming meditation/gratitude practice by Tony Robbins, which shifts my body and mind into a positive mindset."
Pilates and Cold Showers
Vloet likes to work out before she has breakfast. "Taking this phone-free, quiet time in the morning is crucial for me," she told Camille Styles. "Then, I incorporate a workout to move my body before the workday, whether it's a Pilates session, a stretch with a foam roller, or a strength workout. After a cold shower, I make breakfast around 8:30/9 a.m., and my day begins!"
Protein For Breakfast
Vloet loves a protein-packed breakfast to start the day. "I love a savory breakfast with protein. It helps me stay full and energized and balances my blood sugar levels," she told Camille Styles. "As it's winter, I've been enjoying adding squash to my diet. A typical winter plate includes eggs, cottage cheese, avocado, and squash. I share many healthy breakfast ideas on my app, Soul Sync Body."
Meditation and Mindfulness
She focused on breathing exercises during the pandemic lockdowns. "Even during this time, I am still trying to plan my on-days and off-days," she told Rose & Ivy. "I want to get into meditation. Something nice that me, my boyfriend and a friend who is staying with us have been doing is every night before dinner, we hold hands and take three big deep breaths—that breathing is something I want to work on. Sometimes after a full day, I realized I literally forgot to breathe."
Stretching Every Day
Vloet is careful not to put undue stress on her body. "I think listening to your body and what you need is important," she told Rose & Ivy. "For me, I have noticed that my routine is important. I am very much a morning person so going to bed early has helped and then getting up early. I think the first 30 minutes are really important—no phone—just waking up and stretching. Stretching has really helped change my body and my mind over the last few months. I would work out but even doing that gives a sort of stress to your body that we don't notice. I would do an hour stretch and notice that it calms down my mind so much without stressing out my body."
