Kristin Johns in Workout Gear is “Off to the Gym”
Kristin Johns is headed to the gym in her workout gear. In a new social media post the influencer shows off her incredible figure in a yellow workout top and green leggings prior to an exercise session. “Off to the gym,” she captioned the Instagram Stories image. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
In a YouTube video about her diet and fitness habits, Kristin reveals what she eats in a day. For breakfast she starts with a Cliff Bar. “It’s kind of a sad breakfast,” she jokes. “It’s not like a full meal, but it’s good for when you’re in a rush. For lunch she opts for something “a little more hearty,” a sweet potato bowl with peanut butter, honey, some ground cinnamon, some plain Greek yogurt, some coconut flakes, chia seeds ,and also some granola. For dinner she has grilled shrimp, veggies and rice.
Kristin prioritizes hydration. She drinks multiple glasses of “lemon water” daily, she says. She adds that she tracks her water intake on an app, “which I love ’cause I’m so bad at drinking the right amount of water a day.” According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
“Another thing that I have kind of discovered about myself and about working out and fitness and health is how important physical activity is not only for my physical health, I also think it’s equally as important for my mental health because I remember when I moved to LA, the first month, I didn’t really work out at all, or I was just doing something maybe like once every two weeks, just like a random workout,” she said in the same video. “And I was feeling so tired and sad and I was just feeling so blah, you know what I’m saying? And, once I started getting on a consistent workout routine, I just felt so much more energetic, so much happier, so much more driven to get things done. And I just think that that is the most important thing to remember about fitness is that yeah, it’s great to look good and strong and feel healthy, but also just getting out and being active just boosts your mental health so much.”
Kristin enjoys sweating al fresco. “My first favorite exercise is hiking. LA has amazing hiking trails and it’s a great workout. It really gets your heart rate up,” Kristin says.
