In an Instagram post she reveals that 5-6 workouts per week are a must. “Some people might think my progress is due to my genetics,” she wrote, “but I can tell you it's got a LOT to do with hard work and consistency,” she continued. Sometimes she even works out at midnight.

Do High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)

Skye advocates HIIT workouts. “You can’t spot reduce,” she told People. “Work your whole body doing high-intensity interval training workouts and weights. A lot of women neglect [weight training] because they have this fear that weights will make them bulky, but it’s actually really good for getting that toned look. Plus it burns fat,” she added. “You’ve got fat that sits on top of the muscle, so if you work the muscle and get it nice and toned, once you remove the fat you’re left with long, lean, toned muscles.” There is lots of research backing up the benefits of HIIT workouts, including body fat reduction, improved cardiovascular function, and mental health. It is also time effective.

Amp Up Your Protein Intake

Emily encourages eating protein to burn fat. Each of her meals is very protein-centric. For breakfast she has an egg, spinach and halloumi wrap, followed by a tuna, kale, sweet potato and avocado salad at lunch. “I usually aim to include protein at breakfast, like eggs and dairy, which also have a range of important minerals,” she told NW Magazine. “A savory breakfast means I can throw in some vegetables, plus wholegrain carbs for slow-release energy.” She also loves fish. “I try to include fish a few times a week for lean protein and important omega-3 fats. I add some pumpkin and sesame seeds for extra mineral, protein and healthy fats,” she added.

Try “Intuitive Eating”

It’s all about balance, says Sky. "I like intuitive eating and to allow myself one or two treat meals a week. It does depend on what's happening though. If I have a photoshoot or something coming up, I'm a bit more strict with myself because I know I have a goal to achieve, but generally, I allow a couple of treats. My favorite 'treat' foods are chips and chocolate,” she told Women's Best.

She Eats Overnight Oats

Alex recently shared her recipe for peanut butter and jelly overnight oats.

Ingredients:

• 1 scoop @youcanbeam vanilla soft serve protein powder
• 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon PB
• 1 tablespoon your choice of jelly
• Topping: chopped strawberries

Directions:

• Add milk, chia seeds, honey and stir to combine

• Store in fridge in an air right container overnight or at least 3 hours
• Add your toppings when you’re ready to eat 🍓

She Isn’t Afraid of “Putting on too Much Muscle”

Alex is not afraid of “putting on too much muscle” by lifting weights. “Workout however you want to, I stand by that!!! But to answer your question, no I’m not worried about putting on too much muscle, thank you! Plus, I wish putting on muscle was that easy,” she says in a post.

She Started Her Journey with “Cardio and Abs”

Alex recommends starting small before working your way up to heavy weights. “I feel my strongest when I’m lowering my barbell to the ground or holding 45lb plates in each hand 😅but I did start at the gym doing cardio and abs. Eventually made my way to lifting and never looked back!!” she captioned a post.

She Doesn’t Rush Through Her Workouts

Alex recommends taking your time when working out. “Take your workouts to the next level 😮‍💨 It’s easy to rush through a workout, but keep things controlled! Don’t let yourself go on autopilot when you’re lifting. Focus on that mind to muscle connection!” she wrote in a post, adding that you should not give up and instead, “push for that extra 1 or 2 reps,” and “do the exercises that are hard for you. It’s ok to fail, but how will you progress if you don’t keep trying!” she says.

Here Is Her Upper Body Workout

In her recent post, Alex shares an upper body workout. “We’re focusing on boulder shoulders, chest, and triceps! You can do this one at the gym or at home, let’s gooooo,” she writes in the caption.

FULL WORKOUT:

• 1a. Push Ups 4 sets | 10-12 reps *last set to failure*

💪🔥Body Booster: Don’t race through your workouts. Going slow and focusing on form can be just as effective – if not more – than going at a faster pace.

Krissy Cela is making a case for weightlifting – showing off her tiny waist. In a new social media post the fitness influencer and co-founder of EvolveYou draws attention to her chiseled midsection and reveals the workout responsible for it. “I understand fitness trends come and go… I get you’ve been told by many people on viral videos to stop lifting heavy because it’s not feminine and maybe you’ve even been told the gym isn’t a fashion show,” she writes. “Hate to break it to you but if you want longevity in your health lifting weights is important, sure it gives you muscles but it’s beneficial for your overall health! And not to mention what it does for your mind.” Her followers went wild. “Yes, preach it girl! Break those stereotypes. Because who says lifting can't be both empowering and fashionable, right? 🔥” commented fellow fitness influencer Alexia Clark. “You look so damn good🔥🔥🔥” added Victoria Loza. What is the exact workout responsible for Krissy’s amazing body and what other health habits keep her fit? Here is everything you need to know.

This Is Her Workout

Here is her strength training workout:

✅ bent over rows

✅ single arm rows

Early Riser

Krissy is an early riserI tend to wake up at around half five or six. The reason I wake up so early, it sounds ridiculous, but it helps me do everything I need to do for myself before I can give myself to everybody else. I have this concept where it's all fair and well doing things for the people we love, but if we're not taking some time out for ourselves, to check in or be productive, we'll constantly feel bottom of the list. So I wake up, half five or six o'clock,” she told Closer.

Coffee, Preworkout, Supplements

“The first thing I do is brush my teeth and get ready for the gym. Don't think twice, I just put my workout gear on,” Krissy says about her morning routine. “Then I'll drink my coffee or have my pre-workout.” She “loves” the pre-workout drink, “because I'm a caffeine addict,” she confesses. Probiotic pills help her digestion and hormones. “I have also started using collagen in my coffee now, it really helps me kickstart my day,” she adds.

Moving Her Body

“Firstly, moving my body is a big big thing. I have to always move my body,” Krissy revealed. “I'm either working out in my little home gym or I am going to the gym and I'll train for one hour, tops.”

Protein Shakes

“So for me, every single day I have protein shakes, it's just convenient. It's a great way for me to up my protein intake, but it's something I don't rely on. Food is key. Protein shakes are a step up from what you already have, so if you don't have a healthy diet or consistent training routine, then you can't expect it to do what it's supposed to do,” she adds to Closer.

Her Body Changes

Krissy recently shared side-by-sider of her “leaner” body in May 2023 and now, revealing she is “SO much happier now” even though she weighs more. “I’m learning more and more that when you might not be as consistent with your journey or when you’ve taken a break it does NOT mean you have ‘fallen off’ or that you need to ‘get back on track’ I used to think this way all the time and now I realise I’ve always been on track, it’s just my track is taking me on a new journey that’s all,” she continues in the post. “I still love moving, I love lifting, I love cooking meals and eating well. I may not have as viable abs or be as lean but I’m soooo much happier, have so much more longevity and honestly I just feel good. Not to mention what my body has been through to even stand strong today. So here is your reminder that during your journey your body will fluctuate, your routine will change and your body will look different so embrace it, keep moving, keep showing up and just take your time with it all! No rush it’s about doing this thing called fitness forever not a quick fix. Just enjoy life and I promise you visible abs does not always equal health and happiness.”
