Leticia Martinez<\/a> is a 2025 Swim Search finalist<\/a> and fitness instructor who helps her app<\/a> subscribers feel strong and empowered through workout and nutrition guidance. The 27-year-old New Jersey native loves strength training and Pilates, and it comes as no surprise that her favorite form of self-care incorporates some movement, too. <\/p>\n

\u200a\u201cI\u2019ve been really, really loving walks,\u201d Martinez tells SI Swimsuit of her favorite well-being practice. \u201cI\u2019ve been going for like an hour, hour-and-a-half walk and I feel like it allows you to put on a podcast and sit with your thoughts and be one with yourself, so I\u2019ve been really leaning into that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Martinez typically tunes in to The Mel Robbins podcast on her strolls, saying the author and motivational speaker is a \u201creally, really awesome\u201d resource for learning about personal development and self-improvement. Whether you also enjoy a hot girl walk or tend to gravitate toward gentle yoga, Martinez encourages others to try to find a form of movement they find enjoyable in order to benefit both their physical and mental health. <\/p>\n

\u201cIf you enjoy doing things outside of strength training, if you like walking, if you like biking, [that is] still considered a form of movement,\u201d Martinez says<\/a>. \u201cAnd I feel like that really does add up to the big picture. At the end of the day, no movement is bad movement.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to going for long walks, the fitness model enjoys journaling and says that trying new things is a fun way in which she prioritizes her mental well-being. For example, Martinez recently tried pottery for the first time.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u200aThat was a really great thing to just sit with myself and my mind and try something new,\u201d she says of getting outside of her comfort zone with a new hobby. \u201cI\u2019ve been doing a lot of things like that lately.\u201d<\/p>\n
