Brooke Hogan is indulging in me time – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the Pilates guru shows off her washboard abs in a two-piece exercise set while taking time for herself. “Making time to do something for myself during Billy’s nap times has been a game changer for my overall mood and wellbeing,” she writes in the Instagram post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Brooke’s favorite workout is “anything that makes me sweat! When I’ve completed an intense workout session and I leave the gym puffing and sweating – I feel like I’ve got somewhere,” she told Buro.

Brooke opened up about everything she eats to Husskie. “For breakfast either toast, eggs and avo or coconut yoghurt, muesli and berries or a smoothie. Lunch is either tuna on a cracker, some protein and salad, or a yummy roll. Dinner I like to mix it up – we love salmon and veggies but I cook lots of different things: pho, curry, stir frys, healthy schnitzels etc.” she said. Her cheat food? “One hundred percent, without a doubt chocolate,” she told Buro. “I am a chocolate lover and always have been. I could eat it for breakfast haha! (but seriously). In my opinion everything in moderation is fine and I never deprive myself of things that I love. If I feel like chocolate, I’ll have some, just in moderation of course!”
Brooke particularly enjoys HIIT workouts. “I love F45 so if I have a big shoot I might throw in an extra class if I can! 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.

Brooke recommends mixing up your workouts. “Don’t do the same thing every day. Find something you actually enjoy doing. If you hate running and you set your alarm for 5am to go for a 5k run, you’ll most likely snooze and not want to get up. Do things that you enjoy and will make you excited to get up and get moving. For me I love F45, when my alarm goes off in the morning I look forward to getting up and going to class!” she told Buro.

Brooke exercises almost every day. “I work out four to five days a week for about 30 to 50 minutes,” she told Women’s Health. “When I travel, I’ll maybe do a 10-minute workout in my hotel room to get my body moving; or a two-minute plank, a couple of push-ups and even just stretches. I try to take a skipping rope and also booty bands in my suitcase, which are super light and easy to transport,” she added.
“I really love pilates; it’s sort of like meditation for me – my time to refresh my mind, re-energise, switch off and put my focus on being in the moment,” she added to Women’s Health. Why is pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic there are lots of benefits to the workout, as it “strengthens the body’s inner core while increasing its flexibility resulting in improved overall health.” It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.
