Lauryn Davey is on the track in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the heptathlete flaunts her amazingly fit figure in a tiny shorts and a crop top during an exercise session. "My last Varsity dub for the Green and White Army," she captioned the post. "Oh wow! 🔥🔥" commented one of her followers. "Lovely 🙌🔥😍" added another. How does the athlete approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits. 

Lauryn is a heptathlete, which means she competes in seven different sports. One of the basic ways Lauryn trains is by running – a lot. Running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss, according to Mayo Clinic. "For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories," they say. 

Lauryn recovers from training by soaking in the hot tub. "Off SZN," she captioned a photo of herself taking a bath. How can baths do your body and mind good? They have been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.

Strength training is another important part of Lauryn's regiment. 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:

Lauryn also cycles, a low-impact aerobic exercise that is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance according to Cleveland Clinic. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis. 

Lauryn enjoys paddle boarding when she's not training. "It's not as easy as it looks," she captioned a post. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio. The water sport can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140 pound male and 436 for a female the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

Lauryn also swims as part of her training. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses, per the CDC. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.
