Stephanie Rice is a professional swimmer. She won three gold medals in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. Rice has appeared on The Apprentice: Australia and SAS Australia: Who Dares Wins. She recently got married, and is currently on her honeymoon in the Maldives. Rice shared a set of photos on Instagram of herself in the pool. She captioned them, “A week in heaven 🏝️The last 3 months were so busy and intense, planning our wedding, finishing my masters degree, selling all of Mark’s furniture and booking our honeymoon…so to finally stop, relax and have no decisions to make is absolute bliss 🙌🏽”
She Swims
Swimming is obviously the main way that Rice keeps herself in shape. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself training in the pool. Rice shared this video of herself diving in, captioning it, “Procrastinating studying for my accounting exam … so here’s a reel I decided to make instead 😂🫠” Rice also shared this diving photo on her page, captioning it, “These days I only get in the pool to film content for YouTube or if I’m sipping a spicy marg somewhere luxurious 🤣🍹”
She Lifts Weights
Rice likes to lift weights to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself lifting weights. Rice captioned it, “After I came back from SAS and my shoulder was slightly better, I decided I wanted to fully commit to a weights program and see if I could transform my body. I’ve always done weights but more functional weights with lots of HIIT and long hikes. So I asked @m.acefitness to create a program for me and help train me a few times a week. At first I couldn’t even put the plates on the barbell because my shoulder was so weak after dislocating it 🤦🏽♀️ but now that it’s almost 100% better I’m really enjoying weights training and I’m learning a lot. I also think it’s amazing how your body responds to different types of training…you really can shape your body however you want to by doing different styles of training and I think that’s so cool.”
She Works Out On A Regular Basis
Rice makes sure to workout on a regular basis. She talked about it in the caption of this Instagram post. “Even though the past few weeks have been mega busy, my workouts stay consistent. They not only make me feel confident and empowered in my physical body, but the mental/emotional benefits are always worth the 1hr sacrifice. My mind is so much more focused after a workout, so I made sure to get one in before my final uni exams and assignment writing sessions. I know when things get busy it’s easy to sacrifice things like sleep, healthy setting and exercise…but for me, those things actually make me thrive, so I keep them a priority as best as I can!!”
She Has A Strong Mind
For Rice, mental health is just as important as physical health. She tells Coach Nine that her mental health helps with her wellness routine. “A lot of people tend to put a lot of pressure on themselves to do big radical changes. I'm all for that, as long as you've created the right mental foundation for it. A lot of people compare themselves to others — I would want to ensure that my friends are making the shift for a more positive and empowering reason.”
She Eats A Veagn DIet
ShutterstockRice shared her diet in her Coach Nine interview. “I follow a predominantly vegan diet,” Rice revealed. “I don't enjoy following any strict eating routines, but I always am conscious to eat as much fresh fruits and vegetables if possible. If I am travelling and I don't have access to fresh produce, I try to supplement that with powders. In terms of a ‘cheat’ meal, I love any forms of chocolate, but I tend to lean towards healthy raw desserts.”
