Amanda Saccomanno, aka Mandy Rose, in Two-Piece Workout Gear Does Hip Thrusts (2024)

Amanda Saccomanno is getting a glute workout in—in her exercise clothes. In a new social media post the former WWE fighter flaunts her incredible figure in a two-piece workout ensemble during an intense sweat session. "We were pushing some weight today! 😅💪🏻🍑," she captioned the post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Mandy revealed that once she started bodybuilding and strength training with a professional, it was a game-changer. "I always worked out, but I wasn't super strict with my diet. I hired a trainer and approached it like a hobby, but once I saw the progress and how my body was changing, I loved it," she told Muscle and Fitness.

Mandy eats clean, following a high-protein, low-carb diet with a few fast food meals sprinkled in. "Overall, I try to be consistent," she told Muscle & Fitness, "but sometimes you just have to eat what's available." Doughnuts are one of her cheat meals.. "I'm lucky to have good genes," she says. "And life's all about balance."

Mandy is such an advocate of fitness apps that she started her own, Fit with Mandy. "It's a 12-week at-home program designed for both men and women of all ages and skill levels. You can go at your own pace and do this program anywhere—it includes a lot of HIIT exercises, and it requires little to no equipment. I designed the program because I'm always on the road traveling, and sometimes can't get to a gym with my busy schedule. But with this app, there are no excuses—anyone can make time. It's available for download now in the App Store, so check it out," she told Star magazine.

Mandy tries to workout daily. "I train five to six days a week, usually for an hour and a half at the gym. However, being on the road as much as I am now, sometimes I have to train in hotel gyms or even my hotel room. I've learned to make it work no matter where i am. That's one reason why I created the Fit With Mandy app," she told Star.

Mandy has found the combination of HIIT and cardio to be effective. "I warm up first and do some cardio, whether it's on the bike, treadmill or Stairmaster—just something to warm my muscles and get my heart rate going. A lot of my workouts consist of HIIT (high intensity interval training), which is my favorite form of cardio. After my warm-up, I spend 15 minutes stretching and working on mobility—for athletes, it's important to stretch and do mobility exercises to help prevent injuries. After that, I start my workout. Whether it's upper- or lower-body day, I do four sets of each exercise, with high reps," she said. There is lots of research backing up the benefits of HIIT workouts, including body fat reduction, improved cardiovascular function, and mental health. It is also time effective.

2️⃣ RDLs (keep bar close & flat back)

3️⃣ HEAVY hip thrusts
