Issa Vegas is thanking her followers in her workout gear. In a new social media post the stunning fitness influencer shows off her covetable curves in a two-piece exercise set, sharing gratitude as the one-year anniversary of her protein powder approaches. “Thank you everyone,” she writes in the caption of the Instagram post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Issa shared all of her top diet and fitness secrets with Entrena! Her first recommendation? Targeted exercises. “To tone and increase volume in your glutes, you cannot miss squats, lunges, and deadlifts. I love to include variations like sumo squats or lateral lunges to work different areas of the glutes and legs. And don’t forget hip thrusts! They are my favorites for deep glute work,” she says.
She also recommends smart cardio. “While cardio is great for overall health, to focus on toning, I prefer low-intensity cardio like long walks or using the elliptical. This helps burn fat without sacrificing the muscle mass we’re working on building,” she writes.
When it comes to diet, focus on nourishing food, recommends Issa. “A protein-rich diet is key to help rebuild and tone muscles after a workout. I make sure to include protein sources like chicken, fish, eggs, and of course my beloved whey protein. And let’s not forget about healthy carbs and fats; our bodies need them for energy and recovery!” she says.
Next up, she encourages hydration and less salt. “Drinking enough water and maintaining a low-sodium diet helps reduce fluid retention, which can influence the appearance of cellulite. So let’s keep those water bottles full!” she says.
Stretching and massage is also key. “After my workout, I spend time stretching and sometimes use a foam roller. Not only does this help with muscle recovery, but it can also improve circulation and reduce the appearance of cellulite,” she writes.
And finally, consistency is key. “Consistency in your workout and nutrition routine is crucial. It’s not about one-week changes, it’s about a lifestyle,” she writes.
