Movement has always been a part of Gabby Logan<\/a>\u2019s life. As well as being one of the UK\u2019s most recognisable sports presenters, she competed as a rhythmic gymnast in her teenage years and has spoken openly about how important exercise is to both her mental and physical health. <\/p>\n

What has changed is Gabby\u2019s approach to exercise \u2013 and the goals that fuel her. Now in her 50s, she’s focused on living well as she ages, and her workout split reflects her longevity-focused approach. <\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019ll be thrilled if I can get well into my nineties, but I want to get there feeling good and still being active with my kids and possibly grandchildren,\u2019 she says in the latest issue of <\/a>Women’s Health<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Gabby Logan’s favourite workouts
<\/p>\n

As well as making sure she\u2019s eating well, getting good sleep and looking after her mental wellbeing, Gabby\u2019s approach centres around four key forms of movement that help her support her full-body strength and fitness: weight training<\/a>, Pilates<\/a>, cardio (like running<\/a>) and daily walking<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\u2018I do three weights sessions a week to strengthen my bones, a few Pilates sessions and something more cardio-based,\u2019 she explains. \u2018I\u2019m not a natural runner, but I\u2019ve never felt worse after a run. It\u2019s an accessible mental health tool.\u2019 <\/p>\n

And when it comes to the final piece of the puzzle \u2013 her daily walks \u2013 Gabby likes to stay consistent by tracking her step count. <\/p>\n

\u2018I try to average around 12,000 steps daily,\u2019 she says. \u2018If I have a work day where I\u2019m travelling in a car, then sitting in an office and watching football, I find my energy slumps<\/a>, so rather than having another coffee I\u2019ll get up and walk the corridors or around the Piazza in Media City, Salford. I hate doing fewer than 5,000 steps a day.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Gabby also turns to exercise in nature to support her mental health. <\/p>\n

‘If I feel really down and want an instant boost, I will find a forest and run while bathing in the nature,’ she adds. ‘I also think a cold shower can be quite powerful for your nervous system. While I find being in a cryotherapy chamber exhilarating, I do like things that are more accessible for people. You don\u2019t have to spend the money.’<\/p>\n
