So what is Susan’s typical workout routine? Here’s what she shared in an interview: “Three 20-minute sets, aiming for a heart rate of 140 to 160 beats per minute. I try to go further and faster each time.”
For her diet, she said she usually keeps an eye on her food intake. “I watch what I grab post-workout,” said Susan. “My metabolism is so revved, and I want to refuel properly. If it’s junk food, I feel like crap. So I’ll go for protein, like chicken, instead.”
