Ally Love is an instructor for Peloton. She also shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. In a recent post, she is seen doing plank exercises and exercises with weights. Love captioned the post, “Nobody owns strength, but YOU own strong. 💪🏽 A lot of people ask me tips on staying fit while traveling. Well… we @onepeloton heard you and that’s why we created the Strength + Peloton App. Workouts made easy on the go. 🏋🏽♀️🙌🏽 S/o to @radichell … you crushed this one! 😉 How do you stay fit while traveling?!”
She Loves Salads

Love shared some of her diet secrets with PureWow. She says that she loves salads. “For lunch, anywhere between 11:45 a.m. and 12:45 a.m., I normally have a Sakara Life salad—something that's made up of all whole foods with little to no nightshades. I actually created a salad with Sweetgreen. It’s made up of crispy rice, avocado, tofu, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and lime over romaine lettuce with a vinaigrette dressing.”
She Loves Plant Based Food
Love tells Shape that she eats a lot of plant-based food. "Implementing plant-based, dairy-free options is something that's an opportunity for people," she says. "You don't have to just be vegan to only eat vegan. You don't have to have these titles to consume these products. Just put yourself in a position to try it without judgment."
She Believes in Moderation
Love tells PureWow that she is a believer in moderation when it comes to her diet. “Saturday’s are my rest days, so on the weekends I’ll make lemon blueberry pancakes for breakfast and have a doughnut in the evening. It’s not my cheat day, I don’t call it a cheat day. Eating is so personal, and if we're doing it mindfully then that's all that matters. Variety is essential to our bodies and our overall health. We should be proud of what we eat.”
She Does Squats
Love shared this workout video on Instagram. One exercise she is seen doing in it is squats. Love captioned the post, “✨Training ✨ It’s hard (for us all) to start but it’s even harder to finish. I encourage you to tap into your discipline today and finish. Because it’s when your willpower meets a greater challenge that you have to rely on your discipline to move forward. *Note, love this video bc I can see some form corrections I.e my left knee goes in at the base of my squat. It’s progress not perfection… move forward!”
She Does A Variety Of Workouts
Love shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Shape. "I diversify my training routine," she shares. "I know that I love running, but I like to diversify in terms of what I'm offering my body because, when you get stuck in only one thing, your body can only do that one thing and then it plateaus."

Britany Anderson is a professional hurdler from Jamaica. She competed in the 2020 Olympics. Anderson has also won a silver medal in the 100 meter at the 2022 World Championships. Last month, Anderson shared a photo on Instagram of herself at the track. She captioned the post, “End of an amazing week! I’m feeling really positive and excited for the upcoming season. Also really grateful to start this new season healthy and in good shape… 💜💜🦄💓🌸💓💖💕💓🦄💜🦄💜🦄”

Anderson shared some of her favorite workouts in this Instagram video. In it, she is seen using weights. According to ACE Fitness, using weights has a lot of health benefits. “Using heavy weights increases intramuscular coordination, the number of type II motor units and the amount of muscle fibers engaged within a specific muscle. Have you ever felt your muscles shaking while lifting heavy weights? This is because you are recruiting and activating the larger type II muscle fibers, which are only stimulated to work when a muscle is challenged with heavy resistance or working to fatigue.”

Anderson is seen doing jump squats and squats with a barbell in the previous Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that squats have a lot of health benefits. “Engaging large muscle groups helps burn calories both during and after exercise. One study found that squats burn about 35 calories per minute, aiding in weight management and fat loss.”

Anderson is also seen doing lunges in the previous Instagram video. Lunges are very beneficial. The Mayo Clinic states, “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

Anderson shared this video of herself working out on Instagram. One thing she is seen doing in it is RDLs. ACE Fitness states that RDLs have a lot of health benefits. “The most important benefit of the RDL is that it teaches the proper movement and biomechanics of standing hip flexion and extension. This is the foundational movement for squatting, whether the movement is performed with a weight in the gym or while bending over to pick an object up from the floor.”

Anderson is seen using the leg extension machine in the previous Instagram video. Asphalt Green states that doing this has a lot of benefits. “Leg extensions using this exercise machine work your thighs. In fact, that’s basically the only thing that they work. That’s great if you want to build strength and mass quickly.”
Professional CrossFit athlete Dani Speegle constantly challenges the limits of physical fitness, and she uses her substantial Instagram following to share glimpses of her rigorous regimen. Known for her intense competition routines and favorite workout sessions, Speegle recently captured attention with a striking set of photos at a competition, boldly captioning it, “Commit to the bit.”

One thing Speegle does to keep herself in shape is lift weights. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself lifting weights. Speegle included a photo of herself lifting a barbell from a competition in this post. ACE Fitness states that lifting weights has a lot of benefits. “Lifting heavy weights elevates levels of anabolic hormones—specifically testosterone, growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1)—which are used to repair muscle fibers damaged during exercise. This helps the muscle fibers to become thicker and capable of generating higher levels of force.”

Speegle shared this reel on Instagram of herself doing different exercises at a competition. One thing she is seen doing is jumping rope. Piedmont states that doing this can improve your coordination. “Jump rope exercises improve your foot coordination and help you focus on your feet. It also strengthens the muscles surrounding your foot and ankle joints, and it can help decrease foot and ankle injuries.”
Speegle is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram reel. According to ACE Fitness, lunges have a lot of health benefits. “Lunges work the biggest muscles in your lower body — mainly the quadriceps, gluteus maximus, and the adductor magnus (the muscle in your inner thigh). Other muscles that come into play are the hamstrings, gluteus medius, calves, and core stabilizers, says Susane Pata, content strategist for the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and NASM-certified personal trainer based in Miami.”
Speegle is also seen doing core workouts in the previous Instagram reel. Core workouts are very important. According to The Mayo Clinic, “Your core is the central part of your body. It includes your pelvis, lower back, hips and stomach. The stomach muscles sometimes are called abs. Core exercises train the muscles in your core to work in harmony. This leads to better balance and steadiness, also called stability. Stability is important whether you're on the playing field or doing regular activities. In fact, most sports and other physical activities depend on stable core muscles.”

Speegle likes to hike to keep herself in shape. She shared these photos on Instagram of herself hiking in Sicily. Speegle captioned the post, “Just a constant battle to try and not say ‘I like that boulder…..that’s a nice boulder…’ whenever I look out at a view 🫏” Harvard Health states that hiking has a lot of benefits. “A number of small studies hint that spending time in green space — nature preserves, woodlands, and even urban parks — may ease people's stress levels. Giving the growing consensus that stress contributes to high blood pressure and heart disease risk, anything you can do to mitigate stress is likely helpful.”
Katie Crewe is educating her followers about the importance of not skipping your workouts – in her exercise gear. In a new social media post the fitness model gets in a sweat session while discussing why should always work out, even if you don’t have a ton of time. “Have you ever skipped a workout because you wanted to get the full workout in but didn’t have enough time?” she asks, begging her followers not to “skip your workout even if you only have 10-15 min. This was one of the hardest lessons for me to learn. Just go and do something to maintain the habit/behaviour. It doesn’t have to be perfect,” she says. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Katie’s main form of fitness is strength training. “Lift weights to be stronger and more powerful, to feel more confident, and to make your everyday life easier. Lift weights so elderly you thanks you for the strong bones and increased capabilities. It’s a tough but extremely empowering mindset shift that I’m so grateful I made,” Katie wrote in a post. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

Katie stresses the importance of warming up. “Last time I posted about warm-ups, a surprising number of people said that they do a dynamic warm-up but no warm-up sets (maybe it was only surprising to me). Let me know below what your warm-ups usually look like (please, for research :p),” she says. “If you’re short on time I’d still recommend doing some warm-up sets. I cut down on some of my dynamic warm-up but not much on my warm-up sets because I really need these to acclimate to the weight and feel prepared."
She also does HIIT workouts. “Because you’re using near maximal exertion in HIIT intervals, it’s important to take long enough rests that you’re recovered enough for your next set. HIIT is very taxing and requires recovery so it’s best not to try and do it too often, especially if you’re trying to recover from lifting. Younger Katie used to do a lot of HIIT on her off days and wonder why she was always run into the ground 🙃. Hill sprints are an outside way to do HIIT I enjoy but if I’m using the treadmill I typically do: 20-30 sec ON, 1-2 min OFF, 12 mph, 1-3 incline,” she writes.

In another post she discusses LISS workouts. “If you can, I’d suggest you go outside for a walk…I type as I look outside at a ton of wet snow coming down ❄️. If I can’t get outside, I like to incline walk while writing emails, listening to a podcast, doing the quordle, etc. Speed 3.5 mph on a 10-12 inline is my go-to. I try to get it done in the morning because otherwise, it doesn’t happen,” she writes.

In her most recent post Katie suggests “agonist antagonist paired sets” when you are short on time. “You can cut your rest time down by half or more without compromising strength/the quality of your sets,” she writes. “I use this strategy in most workouts, especially for my accessory work. If you’re training for strength, I’d suggest utilizing your full rest period for your big compound lifts as your fatigue is greater and you need to be more recovered for your next set.”
Olivia Ponton is sharing about her love of books – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the influencer flaunts her amazing figure in a two-piece exercise set while she discusses one of her hobbies. “If i’m not reading, i’m dreaming of reading,” 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.
Olivia maintains that her “bomb by all means” workout routine is essential for her body and mind. “For me, working out is not only good for my body, but also good for my brain,” she told Sports Illustrated. “For me, working out is an hour of time for myself and an opportunity to step away from my phone,” she adds. “A hard workout provides me an escape for one hour during my day, where I can let my mind be free of social media.”

Olivia strength trains at the celebrity gym Dogpound, “a very safe space where I always feel at home. I absolutely love it there; the team of trainers are so nice, but when training they definitely kick my bum!” she told Sports Illustrated. “When I work out in the gym, I like to focus mainly on abs, arms and back. I have been training those muscles the most because I personally love seeing women that have good upper body strength. Kirk, my trainer, has me do variations of curl-ups and sit-ups for around 30 minutes. Then the other 30 we have a mixture of weights and machines for the arms, back and legs.”

Olivia prioritizes protein. “I drink protein drinks 2-3 times a week after my workouts. I personally believe they help a lot with getting my muscles toned,” she told Sports Illustrated. Research has found that consuming more protein than the recommended dietary allowance not only reduces body weight (BW), but also enhances body composition by decreasing fat mass while preserving fat-free mass (FFM) in both low-calorie and standard-calorie diets.
Olivia eats “a lot of fruit throughout the week,” she says. “Fruit has so many good sugars and hydration components in them. Acai bowls are a super smart way to get in tons of fruit at once. In Açaí bowls you can add peanut butter and all types of nuts/seeds to make it even more beneficial.”

In her latest post, Olivia reveals that one of her favorite ways to indulge in self-care is. One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years compared with people who weren't readers or who read periodicals.
