Mathilde Tantot is disconnecting and getting out in nature – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post, the swimwear model shows off her amazing body in an exercise set as she spends time decompressing. “This week for the first time I disconnected from everything. Me, the mountain and my camera. Here are some pictures,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Hydration
Mathilde understands the importance of hydration. In this photo, she is drinking from a water fountain. “Thirsty day,” she captioned the image. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
Baths
After a long day, Mathilde relaxes by taking a hot bath. Here, she is soaking in the tub. How can baths do good for your body and mind? They have been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.
Horseback Riding
Mathilde is an equestrian and regularly shares photos of herself with horses. Here she is, horseback riding in Scottsdale. “Giddy up 🤠,” she captioned the snaps. According to the American Heart Association, riding horses is excellent for your health. It boosts cardiovascular health, builds core strength, burns calories, and lowers blood pressure. It is also great for your mental health as it helps relax you.
Snorkeling
Mathilde recently went snorkeling on Mauritius Island. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.
Hiking
In her recent post, Mathilde takes a hike on her disconnected trip. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:
- Building stronger muscles and bones
- Improving your sense of balance
- Improving your heart health
- Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems
