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.

1. She’s Rolling With The Punches

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.”

2. She’s Committed

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.”

3. She Works Her Lower Body

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.”

4. She Rides Horses

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.”

5. She’s Learnt Acceptance

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.”

Nia Jax is a superstar wrestler for the WWE. She recently shared a new reel on Instagram. In it, Jax modeled some new clothes. She wore workout gear and a black tank top and pants. She captioned the reel, “It’s a vibe @FashionNovaCurve. Vital Goddess Active Long Sleeve Infinity. Monte Blanc Sweatsuit. No Jealousy Pant Set.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Nia Jax stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. She Works Out With Others

Jax likes to train with other people. And sometimes they are her fellow wrestlers. She talked about this to Bill Apter. "I am training. I'll train over at D-Von Dudley's ring. He's great and then I go over to Nattie and TJ's [Natalya & TJ Wilson], so they run me through some drills and stuff like that and I have matches. I'll get in the ring every now and then with some of my friends like Charlotte [Flair] and her husband, Manny [Andrade El Idolo).”

2. She Does Pilates

In her Bill Apter interview, Jax shared one of her go-to workouts. “I've kind of started being obsessed with Pilates." The Cleveland Clinic states that Pilates has a lot of benefits. “Pilates is a form of strength training, but it doesn’t look like some of the other strength training exercises you might be familiar with. Pilates focuses more on improving muscle tone than building muscles, but the result is similar: greater stability and endurance. Pilates isn’t going to bulk you up — if anything, it’s designed to cultivate a longer, leaner look. Still, it can lay a strong physical foundation for muscle-building activities — and may even reduce your likelihood of injury.

3. She Plays Pickleball

Jax is a big fan of playing pickleball to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself playing pickleball with some friends. She captioned the video, “Pickleball stereotypes #iykyk #pickleballislife #pickleball Having too much fun with @anghaskins @sonja_naomi.”

4. She Wants To Inspire Others

Jax wants to be a positive role model. She tells Refinery29 that this is why she started accepting herself. “Maybe a young girl seeing me and not feeling comfortable in her group can feel like, ‘Oh my gosh, look, she went out there and she’s different and I look like her and she’s kicking ass and she’s taking names. Maybe one day I can do that and I should just embrace who I am.’”

5. She’s Positive

Jax is all about self-love. She shared how she adopted this attitude with Metro. “Loving yourself and being happy and positive, that’s where true beauty comes from,” Jax explained. “I get styled and have pounds of make-up put on which is cool and all, but if I walk out with a bad attitude and have crappy negative ways, then nobody would think twice about me. I definitely feel that if somebody is struggling with themselves and how they look, they need to really channel the positivity within.”

Florence Pugh, the acclaimed actress known for her dynamic roles, shares behind-the-scenes glimpses from her upcoming film with Andrew Garfield, "We Live In Time." On Instagram, Pugh highlights moments from the set, giving fans a sneak peek into the making of the movie. Known for her candid approach to Hollywood's stringent beauty standards, Pugh has openly criticized the industry's obsession with dieting and body image, emphasizing a healthier, self-accepting lifestyle. Whether preparing for a physically demanding role or choosing her fashion statements, Pugh embraces her authenticity, advocating for body positivity and personal freedom in both her professional and personal life.

1. She Doesn’t Diet For Roles

Pugh doesn’t believe in dieting for her movie roles. She talked about this in an interview with Vogue. “From the moment you start growing thighs and bums and boobs and all of it, everything starts changing, and your relationship with food starts changing. It was expected that you would be on whatever diet that you needed to be on, and for me, that was just shocking because I'd never done that before. I think I definitely put my foot down in that aspect. I love food."

2. She Calls Out Society’s Standards

In an Instagram post, Pugh called out the body standards society has for women. "What’s been interesting to watch and witness is just how easy it is for men to totally destroy a woman’s body, publicly, proudly, for everyone to see. It isn’t the first time and certainly won’t be the last time a woman will hear what’s wrong with her body by a crowd of strangers. Thankfully, I’ve come to terms with the intricacies of my body that make me, me."

3. She Worked With A Trainer

To film Fighting With My Family, Pugh told Culture Trip that she worked with a trainer to get in shape. “As soon as we got the roles, [director] Stephen [Merchant] mentioned he wanted us to do as much wrestling as we could. We would have stunt doubles, but he wanted to get us in the ring so we needed to get really strong. We were assigned CrossFit trainers, and it was a month of intense squatting and eating as many protein bars as possible. And wrestling 24/7. My trainer had a gym in Oxfordshire, which is where I was based at the time. I still train with my guy because I actually got ready with him for The Little Drummer Girl. It’s brought a lot of skills to the surface.”

4. She Wears What She Wants

Pugh doesn’t want to let people tell her what to do. And that extends to her clothing choices. "If I'm happy in it, then I'm gonna wear it," Pugh told Vogue. "Of course, I don't want to offend people, but I think my point is: How can my nipples offend you that much? Yes, I can put makeup on and look good for a premiere. But at the end of the day, I still have hair on the top of my lip and I still smell after a workout and I still get spots when I’m stressed."

5. She Skis

According to this Instagram post, Pugh loves to ski to stay in shape. Skiing is a great workout. The University of Rochester states, “Skiing and snowboarding are thrilling activities and great workouts. Both sports are excellent cardiovascular exercises that strengthen the heart. They are also weight-bearing exercises. So they strengthen your bones as they tone your muscles.”
