Sommer Ray is a lot of things. She is a bodybuilder. She’s a fitness model and influencer. She’s a skincare maven, with her line IMARAÏS. And she’s recently started her DJ career. Ray recently shared a new photo on her Instagram story. In it, she wore a green shirt and brown shorts. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Sommer Ray stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.
Ray tells Heatworld that she always makes time for herself. “Sundays are all about relaxation,” she says. “I love to take a hot bath, moisturise, curl up in my robe, and de-stress after a busy week. And of course, hang out with my pets. I’m a huge animal fanatic and grew up on a ranch in Colorado surrounded by them, so spending as much time as possible with them is really important to me. It’s my favourite pastime.”
Ray tells Heatworld that she keeps her skincare simple, and that she kept this in mind when developing her line. “I developed IMARAÏS with my own personal experiences in mind but also taking into account that everyone’s skin is unique. I always have my friends try out my IMARAÏS gummies, and they get hooked quickly as they just taste so good! I feel that most people don’t need a 12-step skincare routine, we need long-lasting solutions that start from within and effective ingredients. That’s exactly what IMARAÏS stands for.”
Ray makes sure that she’s staying hydrated. She tells Heatworld that this is one of her biggest wellness secrets. “Making sure I drink enough water, although I am always careful in making sure I don’t waste it. Water wastage is a huge issue that people don’t necessarily think about, but it’s really important to me.”
Ray likes to start her day off on the right foot. She shared her morning routine with Heatworld. “To me, the key to mornings is getting active as early as possible. Get your heart rate up by doing a workout or going for a run. I always eat a healthy breakfast too, as it sets me up for the busy day ahead. Also, do something to make yourself feel confident. Put on a cute outfit, smile at yourself in the mirror, and just be happy to be you!”
Ray shared some of her fitness secrets in an interview with Cosmopolitan. She says that she does a variety of things to keep herself in shape. “If my glutes are sore, I tell myself, ‘I probably shouldn’t work them today,’ ” she says. “I just listen to my body. There’s not a certain exercise or specific workout that’s beneficial. I switch it up every day and try to make it fun, because as soon as it feels like a job, you don’t want to do it.”
