Jessie James Decker in Two-Piece Workout Gear Does F45: "Let's Gooooo!"

Jessie James Decker is getting her sweat on – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the country singer shows off her amazing body during an F45 workout. She shared the clip via her Instagram Stories. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits. 

Jessie loves playing pickleball. "Pick-le your player," she captioned a post from the court.  According to the Cleveland Clinic, the racquet sport helps improve heart health, enhances muscle and bone strength, increases balance and coordination, boosts brain health, and lengthens lifespan. 

Jessie used the South Beach diet to slim down after having a baby in 2019. "I didn't start working out until three months post because I had C-sections and you can't work out for a really long time. So I started working out a little bit. I didn't really diet yet at three months because I was still making lots of milk and I wasn't ready for that. Started working out though," she told Us Weekly. At four and a half months she started the South Beach Diet again. She started on phase two of the diet, "because I needed to have enough calories to produce milk," she said. "I just did that consistently. I really did. I followed it like crazy," she continued. "I did it from top to bottom. I did this diet 100 percent, literally a 100 percent, and it's the fastest I've ever lost weight. It just kind of melted off."

Jessie revealed specifics about her diet to Us Weekly in another interview. For breakfast she has a sausage English muffin sandwich. She also has a South Beach Diet lunch. "For dinners, I don't do the South Beach Diet meals. And that's the thing about South Beach, they don't want you to always rely on the meals. They want you to learn how to make these things yourself. Or when you're out at dinner, it's the South Beach way. So it's not necessarily, you have to only eat these meals that deliver to your house. It's like I'm learning the proportions and I'm learning what I can and cannot eat. So I might have South Beach breakfast and lunch, but for dinner I'm going to make something for my family that we all could eat. So it could be brown rice and chicken and veggies, or I'll make gumbo, which is actually very lean. Believe it or not. There's only 160 calories in a cup of gumbo."

As for exercise, "I really love high intensity, really quick, and I like heavy weights," Jessie says 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. 

Jessie enjoys F45 workouts, a form of strength training. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

  • Develop strong bones
  • Manage your weight
  • Enhance your quality of life
  • Manage chronic conditions
