‘Badass’: Ivanka Trump’s insane five-exercise workout routine revealed
The former first daughter’s personal trainer has shed light on how the 42-year-old stays fit, describing her as a “badass” at the gym.
Ivanka Trump’s “luxury personal trainer” has shed light on how the former first daughter stays fit.
Sandy Brockman, a Texas-based trainer, recently shared that the 42-year-old lifts weights four days a week, occasionally adding one day of yoga, Page Six reports.
“Ivanka is wonderful because she is just being herself and learning how to strength train, which is so badass,” Ms Brockman, 52, told The Daily Mail.
During their workout sessions, Ms Trump typically sticks to the same five exercises, altering the amount of weight depending on her goals at the time.
“The movements are always the same. They’re dead lifts, back squats, hinges, presses and pull-ups,” Ms Brockman said.
Although the trainer noted that everyone’s strength levels are different, she said people should aim to lift their body weight.
“My minimum strength goals I strive for with my clients include: five strict push-ups, two strict pull-ups, one body weight barbell back squat, one body weight barbell dead lift and one 45-pound (20.4kg) barbell overhead press,” she said.
While most women gravitate toward doing just cardio, Ms Brockman encouraged them to give the weight room a shot.
“Women need strength training so bad, and it feels good for women to do endurance,” she said.
“It feels good for us to run. But sitting down and doing hard strength will actually help women become stronger.”
Ms Trump’s strength training sessions typically last an hour, but Ms Brockman said her famous client’s choices outside the gym are just as important when it comes to building muscle and staying lean.
“I don’t want women starving,” she explained.
“I want them to keep that constant flow of protein going through their bodies.”
The personal trainer said she instructs her A-list clientele to have “20 grams of protein every two to three hours”.
The eldest daughter of Donald Trump gave her followers a glimpse at her workout routine last month.
Ms Trump, clad in an all-Gray workout set, showed off her impeccable squat form as she carried 15 pounds (6.8kg) on each side.
“Beautiful Back Squats Today,” Ms Brockman wrote over the video, which Ms Trump reposted, adding, “Heck yes! Let’s go!”.
