Argentine model and entrepreneur Antonela Roccuzzo has gathered an immense fan following with her regular fitness posts and lifestyle updates. While many know her as Lionel Messi’s wife, Roccuzzo has made a name for herself with her passion for fitness and as an inspiration to many.

She recently opened up about her top 3 go-to exercises to build strong legs and glutes.

“Everybody should do weights for at least one hour a day, because it's very important for the future,” she shared via Women's Health on June 28.

She tries to fit in workouts daily into her busy schedule. Typically, she splits between a strength training routine and dance-style aerobic workouts. However, her basic leg and glute exercises remain simple: Romanian deadlifts, squats, and hip thrusts.

Although she uses a hip thrust machine and a Smith machine for the exercises, they can be done using standard barbells or weight plates as well. And as per the Women's Health article, she typically does 4 sets of each exercise with 12 reps.

Besides strength training and working out regularly, Roccuzzo also follows a clean diet that facilitates her healthy lifestyle.

A glimpse into Roccuzzo’s healthy lifestyle

Being the new celebrity face of Anastasia Beverly Hills takes more than simply working out regularly. In order to have a healthy glow and feel youthful, having a clean diet is a must.

During an interview with Elle back in January 2025, Roccuzzo revealed how she completely avoids alcoholic beverages and smoking.

“My husband has to always be on a diet because of what he does. We have to eat healthy. We don’t drink alcohol, and we don’t smoke. We try to have everything organic. It all comes together, with the exercise, the nutrition, and the mental health—it’s a way of living,” she said.

A combination of healthy eating, smart workouts, and self-care is the secret to Antonela Roccuzzo’s youth, beauty, and fitness.
