Lauren Sanchez's arm toning exercises While her entire body is fit and toned, Sanchez has spectacular-looking arms that have no inch of flabby skin, which might be considered an accompanying ageing sign for people her age.

She shared a video once on Instagram, where she shared all the exercises included in her twenty-minute workout with her trainer. 'I only had 20 minutes to work out before taking kids to school.

The workout included Nordic hamstring curls, step-up knee drives, thrusters, and bench step-overs. Her arm workouts specifically include dumbbell press, barbell bench press, dips on parallette bars, and cable pull-downs, in repetitive sets arranged by her trainer.

Jeff Bezos' fiancée Lauren Sanchez swears by Pilates, hiking, and a high protein diet to stay healthy
Lauren Sanchez — all set to tie the knot with Amazon executive chairman Jeff Bezos this week — defies age and how. The American journalist is deeply committed to staying physically fit and active, besides juggling shoots, taking care of her kids, and running philanthropic initiatives. Supported by her trainer Wes Okerson, who also trains Jeff Bezos, Sanchez's go-to workouts include a mix of strength training and Pilates. In a recent Instagram post, she shared details of her 'upper body pressing day' workout. A post shared by Lauren Sanchez (@laurenwsanchez) 'Workout: Upper body pressing day Incline Dumbbell Press: 3 sets x 12 reps Barbell bench Press: 3 sets x 12 reps Dips on Parallette Bars (band assisted) x 12 reps Push ups (not shown) X 15. 45 min Zone 1-2 hike,' she wrote. Sanchez also loves hiking in the wild, and often shares glimpses of her trails and travels on social media. 'Hiking is one of the best ways to get exercise. No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between,' she one wrote on social media. A post shared by Lauren Sanchez (@laurenwsanchez) In an interview with Self magazine, she had also revealed the importance of Pilates in her fitness routine. 'Pilates changed my body. I used to run marathons and I was never as fit and toned as I am now. I do it at a studio run by Saul Choza and I'm indebted to him forever because my a** has lifted. We do a mix of mat and reformer,' said the journalist. Taking a cue, let's learn about the benefits Physiotherapist Mayank Yadav said mat Pilates exercises are done manually, while reformer exercises are done with the help of machines and external equipment. 'For those with injuries or movement limitations, starting with reformer or other spring-assisted apparatus can provide the support needed to build strength and stability. As you progress and feel more stable, incorporating mat work into your routine can help develop a deeper understanding of the body and progress in the practice,' he explained. Pilates focuses heavily on core muscles, which is essential for stability and balance. 'A strong core reduces risk of injury and enhances performance in other exercises like weightlifting, strength training or running. Since it also focuses on proper alignment and posture, it can help correct imbalances and change how certain parts of the body look,' he added. Sanchez also believes in starting her days with a high protein kick. She has egg whites, sliced avocado, and coffee before taking a shower and heading straight to her errand of the day. On red carpets, she likes to keep her bottle of Fiji water and coffee close. Her pre-game routine includes brushing her teeth and carrying lots of mints, throwing light on the importance of oral health.
