Eve’s Workouts:
Eve’s cardio remains the same whether she’s prepping for the stage or not, with 6 mornings of 35 minutes fasted cardio.
Eve only trains with weights twice a week and no longer than for 40 minutes (everyone’s bodies, hormones, and physical goals are different and this works best for her personally). She trains her shoulders once and her lower body with an emphasis on Glutes once. Abs vary, from no weight to weighted 1-3 times per week. Her training protocols are periodized but always cycles back to the workouts she’s shared with us here.

Eve says: “I know some people don’t like this one but it’s normally because they’re body position is wrong and they’re using their body weight and quads to assist them. If you put your weight back (so your knees never go further forward than your ankles and press down through your heel with your toe elevated you’re going to feel it). I find this also puts a lot less stress on my back and joints than most exercises.”
