Sofia Ansari is heating up social media in her workout gear. In a new Instagram post, the YouTuber flaunts her fit figure post-workout session, wowwing her followers. “Fire 🔥🔥🔥” one of them commented. “So Sexy ❤️🔥” added another. How does the star approach health and wellness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Sofia walks on the treadmill. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.
Sofia loves cycling. In another Instagram Story she spins on a bike. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis.
Sofia does weight and strength training. When she works out alone she uses a lot of machines to lift weights, focusing on lighter weights and higher reps. She might also use a barbell. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:
- Develop strong bones
- Manage your weight
- Enhance your quality of life
- Manage chronic conditions
- Sharpen your thinking skills
Sofia also uses a jump rope. Skipping is a great anytime, anywhere form of fitness.
Sofia runs on the treadmill too. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.
Sofia maintains a healthy diet. Some of her go-to meals include avocado toast with three boiled eggs, broccoli salads, or bowls instead of subs from Subway with added protein.
