Amanda Fischer is jumping rope – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the United Grid League star shows off her amazing body and superior strength during a workout session, wearing a two-piece exercise outfit. “All gas no breaks on this one,” commented one of her followers. “Making easy work of that rope!” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Amanda went over a day in her life to Blacklisted HQ. “This morning we are at the track. So we do track sessions every single Friday morning,” she says. “I have 400 meter repeats, but I have different intervals. So every 100 meters I’m changing the pace. So 100 easy, 100 moderate, 100 at my 5K and 100 at my 3k with a two minute rest between sets, we have three of those and then we have three sets of a 200 meter easy run into a 400 meter 5K pace. And then finally 400 meter easy with an 800 meter at my 10K pace with a nice little 400 meter walk between two sets of that. So lots of running. Not my favorite thing, but we’re here getting better.”
Then, she heads to the gym for session number two “where we have some lifting,” she says. “Today’s just a lot about volume. So I typically have like one volume day a week and this is that.” After her strength training she will work out for 30 minutes doing hip thrusters, wall facing handstand pushups, shuttle runs, gymnastics, and more running. “My calves are very sore, so we’ll see how all this goes,” she says.
One day she will have an “aerobic capacity” day and other days “higher intensity days, so kind of shorter workouts but getting kind of that intensity in,” she says. “I would say Mondays and Tuesdays are more about intensity and then Fridays are about volume. And then Saturdays when we are with our entire crew, that kind of brings the intensity again and a little bit more of like the competition style stuff.”
“Typically I eat the same from day to day, but my nutrition coach does have high volume days. So my high volume days are about two to 250 calories more and we typically try to get those in carbs,” she says. “I’ll eat a little bit more, more carbs on days like this. I also just started a cut yesterday, so we’re dealing with that, but only day two, so not feeling it quite yet.”
In her recent post she jump ropes. “Not only can the repetitive movement of skipping rope elevate your heart rate, work muscles in the arms and legs and burn calories, it may even provide a quick jolt of joy,” says Nike.
