Whitney Johns Shows Off Her Fit Body and Unveils Her at Home Workout
Whitney Johns is heating up social media in a recent workout video – in her swimsuit. In a video shared earlier this month, the model, fitness expert, and influencer shows off her incredibly fit figure in a skimpy bathing suit while demonstrating one of her home workouts. In the video she explains that the "versatile weight plate workout" can be done anywhere from a gym to in the comfort of your home. "Dive into our fitness & meal plans today and discover workouts for every space and pace. Let's make your fitness journey personal, practical, and powerful!" she writes, encouraging her fans to follow along and to sign up for her program. What are some of the main health habits that keep Whitney fit? The Body Network has the details.
A Clean-Calorie Surplus
Whitney doesn't starve herself. "I get a lot of people who want to build their glutes, but they also want to be on a diet," Johns told Muscle and Fitness. "You can't really build that muscle on a calorie deficit." So, she eats more. "As long as you are doing a clean-calorie surplus, you have to remember you are 'doing it for the glutes!"

Macro Tracking
"I really encourage my clients to track their macros," Whitney told Muscle and Fitness. "Even if that's just a couple of times per week because meal serving sizes are so deceiving. I hate tracking macros too, but if you can make yourself do it, you will find out if your protein intake is on point, or if your calorific intake is on track, and then you will know you are getting somewhere."
Focusing on the Feel Good
"My love of fitness started when I was 16 years old. I grew up suffering from severe migraines, chronic pain, mental health, and gut health issues. I got fed up feeling poorly all the time, so I took matters into my own hands and started searching for solutions," Whitney told Fitness Gurls. "I spent years researching and self-testing. It became clear that to heal my body, I had to make nutrition and lifestyle choices that were going to improve my internal health, not just my outer physique."
80/20 Rule
Whitney eats more paleo style because that's how she feels good. She also abides by the 80/20 rule, filling her plate with veggies, lean protein, and healthy fats. On occasion, she will cheat. "If you can do just one cheat meal instead of a cheat day or week, you will fulfill those cravings without derailing your whole diet," she told Dumb Blonde.

Limited Dairy
"When it comes to my diet that works best for my body: I try to stay dairy free, higher fat and lower carbs… but sometimes that Ice Cream craving is just the most," she said via Greatestphysiques.
