Sophia Pierson in Two-Piece Workout Gear Says "Wanna Play?"

Sophia Pierson is best known for starring on the reality series, WAGS. She is also an influencer and YouTuber. Pierson shares a lot of gorgeous photos on her social media accounts. In April, she shared some photos on Instagram of a shoot she did on a tennis court. She captioned the post, "Wanna play?" How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Sophia Pierson stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

Pierson shared her secrets to happiness in this YouTube video. She says that she has learned to role with the punches of life. "I think in life it's good to kind of have a little bit of a plan and a mission, but there's also beauty to going with the flow and rolling with the punches," she said. "You might have an idea of how something goes, but then you get a divorce or then you enter this field of work, and it's not for you, or you realize, 'oh, I want it to be a nurse, but I can't handle blood at all', or something like that. You know what I mean? So things unexpectedly change, and we have to learn to be able to adjust accordingly. So practicing detachment is a super, super important life skill and honestly just a really handy tool to have in order to be truly, genuinely happy. I have found so much joy in just being like, alright, universe, it's in your hands."

Pierson talked about the secrets for finding happiness in this YouTube video. She says that she made sure to stay committed to her goals. "One thing that I didn't realize is it felt like all the videos that I would watch, it would be such a big life change where overnight I'd have to start going to the gym, meditating, doing all these positive things just like that, and that's so not the case. What I wish I knew back then is the power of consistency and small steps. Also, the other thing too is I was always looking for that quick fix. I used to be a really big stoner, a really, really big stoner. A lot of people, when they're unhappy, obviously turn to some type of outlet like that so they can get their quick fix, but unfortunately, the reality of life is nothing great comes overnight."

Pierson doesn't skip leg day. She shared this video on Facebook of herself doing lower body exercises. In it, Pierson is seen doing things like donkey kicks with a resistance band, and side single leg circles. Piedmont reports that doing lower body workouts has a lot of benefits. "Having strong glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings and calf muscles gives your body a strong foundation and can: Tone your lower body muscles. Boost your metabolism as you increase muscle mass. Give you a higher calorie burn as you train larger muscle groups. Improve your balance. Strengthen your bones. Reduce joint pain."

Pierson loves to ride horses to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself and her family going riding on the beach. The American Heart Association states that riding horses has a lot of benefits. "Riding a horse for 45 minutes at a walk, trot and canter can burn up to 200 calories," said Dr. Dennis Sigler, a Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service horse specialist and professor in the department of animal science at Texas A&M University in College Station. "If you do something a bit more strenuous such as cutting or reining, that can come out to nearly seven calories per minute for the entire length of the riding period."

Pierson also talked about the importance of acceptance in her YouTube video. "I guess with life you finally learn to accept, but that's always the first step is learning acceptance. It is what it is. And also kind of a prequel to that is not putting things on such a pedestal, and not thinking that it's the end all be all. So it's very good in life to again have desires and dreams, but not obsessively thinking about it and thinking about the future. In order to truly be happy in life, we have to be present in the moment. So if we're constantly thinking about that thing that is in the future, you're not being present. You're not living your best life. So we've understood acceptance."
