Rodriguez loves incorporating treadmill workouts into her exercise routine. "For many runners, the quickest way to reap substantial benefits is to change their running cadence," says Jack McNamara, M.S.c., C.S.C.S., NASM-CPT, and a clinical exercise physiologist who specializes in coaching running techniques. "That translates to less impact on the lower back, knees, and hips and a reduced risk of injury."

Rodriguez enjoys low carb snacks like ham and celery after a workout. "Although celery has a high water content, it contains numerous vitamins and minerals, including potassium and calcium, which are important for heart health," says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. "It also contains folate and vitamin K, both of which are required for the formation of red blood cells and effective blood clotting. Celery is also a good source of protective plant compounds called flavonoids, which have anti-inflammatory and protective effects on the cardiovascular system. Diets high in fibrous foods like celery are associated with a lower risk of heart disease."

"You don't have to feel like it, you just have to go for it. You got this," Rodriguez captioned a video of herself lifting heavy weights. "Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities," says the Mayo Clinic. "Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age."

Rodriguez enjoys high-intensity boxing workouts with a sparring partner. "Boxing requires the full body to move," says trainer Anthony Char. "From staying on your toes to engaging the core muscles or throwing a jab or a cross, there's a lot to think about, which makes it great for training both the mind and body. It's also a great calorie burner and can often burn more calories than cardio workouts such as running (opens in new tab). It's a fun alternative to traditional cardio workouts like HIIT or swimming."

Rodriguez frequently does squats and planks in her workouts. "Squats are beneficial for everyone," says certified personal trainer Chris Gagliardi. "From elite athletes to older adults and women during the postpartum period. Including squats as part of your exercise routine will help to ensure that you have the required muscular strength and endurance to continue to do the things you enjoy in life. Squatting is considered a bend-and-lift movement which is one of the five primary movement patterns that we use throughout daily life. Consider that every time you stand from a sitting position, or squat down to pick an object up off the floor, you are doing a squat. Squats are something we do often, and it is important to have the appropriate muscular fitness and power to perform squats throughout your activities of daily living."
