Fitness Model Yanyah Milutinovic in Two-Piece Workout Gear is “Pushing Through”
Yanyah Milutinovic is a successful fitness model who, in a recent Instagram post’s caption, revealed that she has been diagnosed with something worrisome, but is still pushing herself to exercise. “I’ll share more about this in a future post, but I want to say that it was tough to process at first. I was scared this diagnosis might signal the end of my fitness journey. However, I reminded myself that I’ve lived with this condition for seven years; I just received a name for it now. I’ve achieved incredible things despite it, and I’m determined to continue doing so. I refuse to let this define me just because we have a label for it. It’s still a challenge to manage, but I’m committed to pushing through 🤍”
Milutinovic makes sure to be consistent with her exercise. She talked about this in the caption of her recent post. For those of you following my journey on my stories, you know it’s been a challenging few weeks. I’ve been showing up to the gym twice a day, pushing through early morning fasted cardio sessions from 5-6 AM while navigating what we initially thought was an injury, but turned out to be a diagnosis of a disease.”
Milutinovic is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram post. According to ACE Fitness, this can have a lot of health benefits. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”
Milutinovic does a lot of hamstring exercises. She shared her favorites in this Instagram video, captioning it, “Hamstrings — because who wants a cake served on a wobbly table? These are MY TOP 3 Hamstring exercises to build a solid foundation for a well-supported cake: 1️⃣ Seated hamstring curl. 2️⃣ Stiff leg RDL. 3️⃣ Laying hamstring curl. I truly hope this provides you with some guidance for your training journeys! 🤍If you know a friend who could benefit from this too, feel free to send it their way.”
Milutinovic talked about the importance of making workouts count in the caption of this Instagram post. “As I am writing this, I am literally in pain sitting down; my gluteus soreness is next level due to this exact workout yesterday 🥲 It wasn’t an insanely heavy lifting session, but it definitely was one for the books 📚I picked a weight that challenged me and allowed me to focus on the muscles I was working throughout the whole motion 🧠💪🏻🔌No rushed reps, and no wasted sets 🙅🏼♀️This is something I often like to remind my clients; it’s not about counting the reps but making the reps count. 💭 I made the weight feel heavier than what it was by slowing down the execution and contracting the muscles the whole way 🐌”
Milutinovic likes to take supplements to help with her health. She shared her secrets in the caption of this Instagram post. “Remember, supplements aren’t a magic trick, but they can work their magic 🪄🎩🐇 when combined with your dedication and effort 🤍💪🏻 As a busy mom, here are my top three supplements: – A quality pre-workout or fat burner for an energy boost – Creatine for added strength when I need that extra push after caring for my little rookie humans – Protein powder to help me reach my protein macros when I don’t have the opportunity to eat a full meal or haven’t had the chance to meal prep, but need something quick. What supplements do you take, and/or are planning to take? 🤍”
