Exercise
Aside from her busy work and family life, Vogue always makes time to train and frequently shares her workouts with her followers to help them target specific areas.
Even while on holiday in St Barts, Vogue is still sticking to her regimented exercise routine as she jumped onto her Instagram Story to check in with her followers post run.
Catching her breath after the cardio she told fans: ‘The sweat from a run in this heat,’ before joking: ‘Spenny is off doing a half marathon or whatever he does.’
When at home the star trains five times a week using mainly a series of strength and resistance type exercises to help her achieve her toned physique using her own fitness app Flexy.
Flexy is described as the users ‘virtual training partner’ and provides users with targeted upper and lower body and core workouts, as well as nutritional guidance, a macro calculator and workouts for yoga, pilates and mobility.
And even on holiday she still makes sure to use the app, as she told her followers post run that she would later be doing a Flexy workout before relaxing for the day.
The majority of Vogue’s workout are rather simple, and can be done at home with just a yoga mat and some resistance bands.
She also incorporates one day of barbell training into her routine each week as she shared a clip practicing weighted back squats and glute raises with the barbell.

Spencer has undergone a huge fitness transformation after previously not prioritising a healthy lifestyle, especially during his time on Made In Chelsea.
Back in January the star shared a before and after photo, as he showcased his chiselled abs while at the gum, compared to another shirtless photo from several years ago when he was filming the E4 reality show.
In the caption, Spencer said that he had been ‘lazy’ back then and was suffering from ‘a serious drinking problem’ and was unfit.
Spencer explained he now exercises regularly to build up his fitness and stopped his dependency on the booze.
He wrote: ‘Health and fitness never used to matter to me… Now, they serve as the core pillars for my personal development, professional progress and positive mental state.’
Talking about his past self he said: ‘I was lazy, inconsiderate and had a weak work ethic. My ego was inflated because I was a prominent character in a popular show and I felt like that would open doors for me.’
Yet now he has a regular workout routine consisting of weightlifting and running. He wrote: ‘My mind is clear and my goals are limitless.’
While Spencer recently worried fans with his dramatic weight loss, the star is currently pushing his limits as he trains for a World Record attempt which he said involves a lot of running.

Not afraid to push his limits, last June Spencer finished in third place in The Jungle Ultra marathon after a strenuous five-day trek through the Amazon Rainforest.
The Jungle Ultra is a 230km self-sufficient marathon through the Amazon Rainforest in Peru and remains one of the toughest races in the world.
The reality star said: ‘This race can be brutally dark and lonely. This was without a doubt the hardest physical challenge I have ever undertaken, although I’m sure it won’t be the last.’
‘I gave everything I had to the Jungle Ultra and to be rewarded with a podium position is a real honour.’
And while Spencer is a fan of the huge challenges, Vogue prefers to target toning certain areas of her body, and has revealed how she always makes sure to specifically works on the side of her legs and top of her thighs, as that an area she is most insecure about.
Sharing her five minute booty burn with fans, Vogue admitted: ‘I just feels like everyone has an area, and my area is also those bits at the side [of her legs]’.
In the gruelling workout, she demonstrated that she completes a high intensity set of fire hydrants, clams and lying leg raises every single day as one of her favourite sequences.
Completing the workout she exclaimed: ‘Owww you really feel that burn. That’s it a five minute booty burn.’

Nutrition and Diet
While Vogue is consistent with her training, she insists that she doesn’t have a healthy lifestyle all the time.
Speaking in a Q&A over on her Instagram, one fan asked the podcaster: ‘You seem to be going a million miles an hour, how do you keep a healthy lifestyle?’
Vogue candidly replied: ‘I don’t want people to mix this up, I don’t have a healthy lifestyle all the time, I have a healthy lifestyle most of the time.
‘I am really consistent with training, I am consistent with taking my supplements, I am sometimes consistent with diet but I do like to go out and have a drink and spend the whole next day having a pity party and feeling sorry for myself and wishing I hadn’t.
‘But that’s just the way I am. I am not healthy all of the time, but I am healthy most of the time.’
Her usual breakfast is usually porridge, as Vogue confessed she loves it all year round, but particularly in the winter.
Last October the star shared how she makes her bowl of hearty oats as she took to Instagram with a clip for her followers as she wrote: ‘BIG into porridge at the moment, made with lovely Irish dairy milk!’
‘It’s a go to, especially in the colder winter months. And the Irish dairy definitely packs a punch with 8 nutrients, to be precise! 200ml of milk = 31% of your daily calcium recommended intake, which is so important for strong teeth and bones, for us and for the little ones too.’
Vogue always tops her porridge with honey, and then will mix up her toppings depending on her mood, adding banana, almonds, raspberries and desiccated coconut for flavouring.
When she is on the go or in a rush in the morning, the star will make a breakfast protein smoothie to ensure she never skips the first meal of the day.

She incorporates full fat milk, vanilla protein powder, berries and ice together for an easy breakfast on the go, as she told fans: ‘Blend all the ingredients together, and you’ve got yourself a delicious and energizing smoothie to take on the day, quick, easy, and packed with nutrients!’
Over on her Flexy app the star has also shared some of her go-to meals including her raw broccoli salad, the perfect guacamole and her salmon and mango salsa.
Vogue also takes supplements from health brand Heights as she told fans she makes sure to stay consistent with them.
She takes Vitals+ which contains 20 essential vitamins and minerals and also takes Biotic+ which is there probiotic supplements and ensures she maintains a balanced gut health.
Meanwhile Spencer recently admitted he had begun incorporating fasting into his health routine after taking part in the BBC‘s spiritual hiking show Pilgrimage.
Pilgrimage sees a group of celebrities, all with different beliefs, faiths, and backgrounds, don their hiking boots to set off on a medieval route.
Discussing his highlight after taking part on the show, Spencer confessed he learnt all about fasting through Sonali Shah during the pair’s time on the show and admitted: ‘that has changed the way I eat since filming’.
He explained: ‘I began to learn a lot about fasting and that led me to read books about fasting and breathing and that got me on to Wim Hof and James Nestor and I’ve suddenly found myself reading books about spirituality.
‘I really feel like I broadened my mind an awful lot on that pilgrimage, and I still fast. I have been fasting ever since the last week of the pilgrimage on a daily basis. So, I’ve taken that with me.’

Alcohol
Spencer has been incredibly open about his toxic relationship with alcohol and one of the main factors contributing to his health transformation was his decision to ditch the booze (most of the time).
The star recently admitted he ‘could have died’ at the height of his drinking when he would consume up to 10 pints of beer a day, and has credited his wife Vogue with helping him to ‘break the habit’.
Speaking to Vogue on the Taboo Talk podcast, he said: ‘It’s not like I just fancied giving up drinking.
‘I could have lost you, I could have lost work, I could have died – not to be overly dramatic about it, but that’s the way it was heading.’
The star admitted he would sometimes go to bed intoxicated, and believes his journey to stop excessive drinking would’ve been ‘more difficult’ if he didn’t have Vogue.
He said: ‘One night, when I was alone, I had a bottle of whiskey and struggled to get myself to bed. I was hammered drunk. I remember waking up the next day and thought “I don’t need this in my life”.
‘If I wasn’t married to someone who didn’t have a great relationship with alcohol, as in you don’t really like it, then my journey would have been more difficult.’
Spencer still drinks occasionally, but admitted he is sober ‘most of the time now’.
He said: ‘I feel very fortunate to have found that level of balance. Before, having one glass would have turned into ten and then I’d be out all night.
‘I’m sober most of the time now. I’ve gone from problem-drinking on a daily basis to having a drink if I feel like it very irregularly.
‘I no longer see it as a problem. I have great balance in my life.’

Ice Baths
Spencer is a huge advocate for ice baths and has said it has been a ‘massive contributor to my recent health progress.’
Stepping into the bath at 0.2 degrees, the reality star broke the frozen ice on top of the water before diving in for two minutes.
‘It is an absolutely epic way of starting the day,’ preached Spencer as he continued: ‘This will get you going.’
Climbing out he continued to gush over the euphoric feeling as he gushed: ‘The head thumping, blood piling all over my brain feels remarkable. That and a couple of espressos should do it.’
Explaining why they are so important for his regime, he wrote in the caption: ‘I love the cold and do this every single day!!
‘Never been fitter or healthier than I am right now and deliberate cold exposure has been a massive part of the progress.
‘It’s honestly insane the difference it can make to your physicality and state of mind.’
And Spencer has been able to persuade his wife to join the ice bath hype too after the she braced herself for an icy dip in Scotland over the festive break.
Challenging herself to plunge in the freezing loch, Vogue stripped down to a skimpy black bikini as she displayed her washboard abs.
‘My ice diaries,’ she captioned the post. ‘I despise cold water and do not like being cold, I even think the sea in Spain in the summer is cold.’
‘Saying that I’ve been getting into this with @spencermatthews who sits in there like a duck happy as Larry. Some days I was AWFUL, today I managed a minute. It definitely makes you feel so good!’
