Soccer is Alisha's main form of fitness."I started my day bright and early with a rigorous training session on the field. We focused on drills to improve our passing accuracy and speed. It's always great to start the day off with some physical activity to get the blood pumping," she wrote in a blog for Chatfai. What makes the sport a great workout? "It is a game of continuous running and with very little stopping," Mercedes Carnethon, MD, told the American Heart Assocation. "It also has anaerobic elements – that high intensity where you're sprinting and then resting – you're constantly moving." Sports researcher Peter Krustrup, who has spent more than 15 years studying the health benefits of soccer, added that recreational-level play and soccer-related exercise drills can help reduce cholesterol and blood pressure. Soccer also can help shift body composition by decreasing fat and increasing lean muscle.

Strength training also keeps her body ready to play "After the morning training session, I hit the gym for a strength workout. Building muscle is crucial for staying strong on the field and preventing injuries. Squats, deadlifts, and lunges are some of my go-to exercises to keep myself in top shape," she writes. The Mayo Clinic agrees that strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

• Develop strong bones
• Manage your weight
• Enhance your quality of life
• Manage chronic conditions
• Sharpen your thinking skills

Alisha makes sure to balance her nutrients. "During lunchtime, I refueled with a nutritious meal packed with protein and carbohydrates. As an athlete, it's important to fuel your body properly to have enough energy for training sessions and games," she says.

Alisha stretches after strenuous exercise. "After each game, recovery is key to prevent soreness and fatigue. Stretching exercises help loosen up tight muscles while ice baths reduce inflammation post-game." "Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints," says Harvard Health. "Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage."

In her recent series of photos, Alisha takes a bike ride. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis.
