Nikkita Lyons and Tiffany Stratton are steaming up the internet – in their swimsuits. In a new social media post shared by Lyons, the WWE wrestlers flaunt their incredibly fit figures in skimpy bathing suits. “Paint the town blonde,” Lyons captioned the Instagram snap. How does the athlete keep her curves in check? Here are some of her top health habits for staying in shape.
1. Boxing
Nikkita spends plenty of time training for the ring with boxing and kickboxing. She shared this video of herself sparring on the beach. She captioned it, "Born to be authentic. You hold the pen, so write YOUR story how YOU want." She also posted this video of herself using different bags at the gym. She captioned it, "Why hit 1 when you can hit 5."
2. Hydration
Nikkita prioritizes hydration. “Before I eat 😡 …. After I eat 😇 lol,” she captioned this photo. 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.
3. Self-Confidence
Nikkita revealed on Out of Character With Ryan Satin that she shuts out the haters. "I might get hate comments, and I might get people that are saying, 'She's only popping because of this and that.' But in reality, I know that the hard work and grinding that has transpired throughout my life is paying off." She also embraces her buff body. "It's thunder thigh day. Thigh gap? It's thigh CLAP B***H," she captioned this video of her workout.
4. Dancing
Nikkita enjoys dancing her way to a fit figure. Dancing is a great workout for many reasons. Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.
5. Lifting Weights
Nikkita also weight trains. In this video she shares an example of her workout, doing deadlifts with a barbell, kettlebell squats, and lateral pulls with a weight. She captioned it, "New beginnings. Me vs me." Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and 2 days of muscle-strengthening activity, according to the current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.
