From gracing the pages og Sports Illustrated as “Lovely Lady of the Day” in December 2012 to executing the Sliced Red in her NXT and WWE matches, Natalie Eva Marie's fitness is something fans have been in awe of.

But behind that is a discipline that often goes unnoticed but reaps great results. In a YouTube video, Marie had deep dived into a HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training) session using dumbbells only. Let's us too-

SECTION 1-

The Workout starts with every minute on the minute for the first 10 minutes. It has two exercises -

Single-Arm Dumbbell Swings

• 12 Reps
• Alternate arms every minute
• Emphasis on hip drive, core engagement,

Dumbbell Air Squats

• 12 Reps
• Dumbbells can be on the shoulders (preferred) or held down at the sides
• Focus on tight core, engaged glutes, and controlled movement.

"When you're doing your dumbbell swings, I don't want you to hunch over your back. You want everything nice and tight, your b- your legs, your core. This is a full-body workout, so keep that in mind when you take your weight down, and you pop your hips up, you're fully in control, you're engaging literally everything," Marie advised.

After this workout, the former WWE superstar takes a short rest for 5 minutes before moving on to the next.

Section 2-

Just like the first one, section 2 also has two exercises.

Dumbbell Deadlifts (RDL style)

• 12 reps
• Slight bend in knees
• Dumbbells glide down to shin level
• Neutral spine, core tight, squeeze glutes

Push-Ups

• 12 reps
• "If you finish your 12 dumbbell deadlifts and then your 12 push-ups before the 60 seconds, then you have 10 seconds of rest, or if you're a rock star and you finish in 30 seconds or 45 seconds, then you have the rest of that minute," Natalie Eva Marie said.

Section 3-

The third section of the actress from Phoenix (2023) involved just a 400m walk, called Farmer's Carry. The former WWE star had her advice for it.

"All you're doing is grabbing weights, holding them by your side...your shoulders locked, working your grip as well.., You want your core engaged, you want your legs everything is nice and tight when you're doing any type of movement because that's going to prevent injury."
