Jenny Heath is showing off her baby bump at the gym. In a few new social media posts The Block star flaunts her amazing body in a two-piece workout ensemble while at the gym. She shared the photos via her Instagram Stories. How does the reality star maintain her amazing body? Here is everything you need to know about her health and lifestyle habits. 

Jenny starts her workouts by walking on the treadmill, which she does in the Instagram Story. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Jenny loves to swim. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, according to the CDC. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well. 

Jenny is a hiker. "What an adventure, from breaking fiddles in Dublin, meeting our long lost family in Belturbet and road tripping across to Galway, we have seen some sights, it's been absolutely grand," she captioned a post. 

In the winter you can find Jenny hitting the slopes. "How good," she captioned this post from Perisher snow resort. Research has linked downhill skiing to a number of health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress and the occurrence of memory deficits declines. 

Jenny also paddleboards. According to The American Council on Exercise (ACE) paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio. The water sport can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140 pound male and 436 for a female the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

As can be evidenced from her latest photos, Jenny lifts weights. 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:
