Angel Reese is heating up social media in her swimsuit. In a recent post the NCAA women’s basketball star, who recently revealed that she is entering the WNBA draft, flaunts her incredibly fit figure. “I’m the CATCH,” she captioned the series of snaps, showing off her amazing body in a Fashion Nova bathing suit. How does the athlete, aka “Bayou Barbie,” approach health and wellness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
“I had high hopes, and I manifested a lot of great things,” Angel recently told Women’s Health, noting that her canvases aren’t big enough for her 2024 goals. “I need to find something bigger,” she says. At the start of the year she mounts a vision board on her wall, aiming to accomplish everything.
“My mental health is the most important thing.…I’m going to make sure I’m okay before anything,” Angel said in a press conference. “I want people to realize that I’m not just an athlete, I’m a human. I go through things. We all go through things.”
Angel starts her day early, meditating first thing when she wakes up at 4 a.m. Her routine is sitting on a carpet in the living room, taking deep breaths, and chanting: “Let’s get through today.”
According to The Athletic, Reese is so devoted to performing that she does two-a-day workouts. When she returned to Baton Rouge after summer break she sent a text to her assistant coaches and teammates: “7 a.m. Be there.”
Even though she has another year of college eligibility, Angel recently revealed she would be entering the WNBA draft. “I want to start at the bottom again,” she says. “I want to be a rookie again and build myself back up; I want to be knocked down and learn and grow at the next level,” she told Vogue. “I’ll be working with grown women,” she says. “I’ll be working with women that have kids, women that have a family to feed. I’m going to have to work my butt off every single day and grind. And who wouldn’t want that? I don’t want anything in my life to be easy.”
