Fitness Influencer Natalie Jill in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares “Walking Attire”

Natalie Jill is going for a walk in her exercise clothes. In a new social media post the fitness influencer flaunts her amazing figure in a two-piece workout set. “My husband makes fun of my walking attire ( a.k.a. my wrinkle preventing wide brim hat 👒🤣) But gotta do what I gotta do in the hot desert sun!” she captioned the post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits. 

In the post she reveals that she prefers outdoor exercise. “It’s no secret that leaving the San Diego perfect beach climate I lived in for 20 years for the desert has been a (bit) challenging for me. I personally believe that the environment we live in is so important to our health. And we are all so different. Some of you thrive on mountains, or the woods, or big cities or cold etc.. I thrive near water. And for me , moving my body in a great climate is where I heal and thrive and pull my creativity,” she says. “I’ve noticed that because I don’t have the same go to ability to exercise in nature anytime during the day when I crave it (way too hot and dry and the air quality is not amazing ) that I have GOT to find a way to move my body and feel motivated and breath good quality air.”

Natalie enjoys biking. She is currently on the hunt for “an amazing exercise BIKE that I can put near a window (hey so I can see nature while moving my body),” she writes in the post. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis. 

Jill discussed her diet with Prevention, explaining that she makes sure that all of her meals “contained lean protein, complex carbs, and healthy fats,” she said. “I ate a lot of salads with grilled chicken or fish, and I added olive oil or avocado for fat.” One of Jill’s rules? She could only eat food with ingredients she could pronounce. She also ate more nutritious foods first, so she would fill up and “have less room for the ‘bad.'”

Natalie does strength and weight training, using body weight for resistance. Her workouts included lots of strength-training exercises, including pull-ups, squats, planks, and triceps dips. “I didn’t spend hours working out,” she says, adding, “If you are exercising daily, you really don’t need more than 15 to 20 minutes.”

During a recent trip to Italy with her husband, Natalie went hiking and shared a photo on Instagram. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

• Building stronger muscles and bones
• Improving your sense of balance
• Improving your heart health
• Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems
