Frida Redknapp<\/a> has shared another look at the training routine that helps her stay strong, energised and consistent as she gets older.<\/p>\n

In a recent Instagram post<\/a>, the mum of five explained that, while she has trained for most of her life, her relationship with exercise has changed over time.<\/p>\n

‘As I get older, it means something different to me,’ she wrote. ‘It’s less about how I look and much more about how I feel. Strong, energised, focused and ready for whatever the day throws at me.’<\/p>\n

Frida added that her routine includes everything from weights<\/a> and Lagree<\/a> to boxing<\/a>, cardio<\/a> and yoga<\/a>, but said consistency matters more than perfection.<\/p>\n

‘You don’t need to be perfect or motivated every single day. You just need to keep showing up,’ she wrote.<\/p>\n

In the gym, Frida demonstrated a series of full-body strength<\/a> moves, combining back, glute, hamstring, shoulder and single-leg work. While she didn’t share sets or reps, the exercises offer a useful snapshot of how she builds strength across her whole body.<\/p>\n

Frida Redknapp’s 4 full-body strength exercises1. Kettlebell alternating bent-over rowStand with your feet hip-width apart, holding a kettlebell in each hand.Hinge forwards at the hips, keeping a soft bend in your knees and your back flat.Let the kettlebells hang beneath your shoulders, with your core braced.Row one kettlebell towards your hip, squeezing your shoulder blade back at the top.Lower with control, then repeat on the other side.Keep alternating sides, avoiding twisting through your torso.2. Kettlebell B-stance RDLStand with a kettlebell in each hand.Step one foot slightly back so your toes are lightly touching the floor, using your front leg as the working side.Keep a soft bend in your front knee and hinge at the hips, lowering the kettlebells down the front of your leg.Keep your back flat, chest proud and hips square.Pause when you feel a stretch through your hamstring, then drive through your front foot to return to standing.Complete the movement on both sides.3. Dumbbell front-foot elevated split squatStand in a split stance with your front foot elevated on a small platform or weight plate.Hold a dumbbell in each hand by your sides.Keeping your torso upright, bend both knees to lower into a split squat.Let your front knee travel forwards as your back knee drops towards the floor.Drive through your front foot to return to the starting position.Repeat on both sides.4. Dumbbell reverse flyStand with your feet hip-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand.Hinge forwards at the hips, keeping your back flat and your core engaged.Let the dumbbells hang beneath your shoulders, with a slight bend in your elbows.Raise the dumbbells out to the sides until they reach shoulder height.Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the top, then lower with control.<\/p>\n

Together, the exercises target the posterior chain \u2013 including the glutes, hamstrings and back \u2013 while also challenging balance, core control and shoulder stability.<\/p>\n

As Frida put it: ‘Look after your body, challenge yourself, and most importantly, believe in yourself. You’re capable of more than you think.’<\/p>\n
