For how young Jennifer currently is, she has a great amount of experience in competition, and she has some great placings in her years of competing, including two Olympia titles. So, how does she train to stay in shape?
Training Regimens
Building a physique worthy of an IFBB Pro status was no easy feat, but to maintain it and continue to improve, that is incredible for someone to do. When it comes to Jennifer, she loves every step of the journey, even the training sessions which can certainly be grueling.
When she is weight training in the gym, Jennifer likes to start easy, warming up her muscles for heavier exercises ahead. Once she’s fully ready, Jennifer will load up on plates and do compound exercises such as squats, deadlifts, and overhead presses. All of these help to really build the foundation, in terms of strength and muscle. Once she is later in the workout, Jennifer focuses more on isolation exercises to really hone in on the sculpting part of the process.
Jennifer heavily focuses on the mind-muscle contraction during her workouts. This is something she focuses on even more so than the weights. She’s found that her legs and glutes especially respond best to this type of training.
Jennifer loves to combine a variety of movements for maximum results from her workouts. For example, during her glute and leg workouts, she will include machines, cable kickbacks for glutes, and smith machine hip thrusts.
If she has time, Jennifer will finish out her workouts with some stretching. This helps remove the lactic acid from her muscles, along with improving blood flow and protecting from injuries that may binder her performance and results.
Nutrition
While training is certainly important, diet and nutrition are just as, if not more important. The recovery part of your regimen is where you truly grow. Filling your body with the correct foods and supplements make that recovery process far more than you may think, and Jennifer knows this.
While she keeps her nutrition very clean throughout the year, Jennifer will reward herself with a cheat meal from time to time for her hard work. This typically happens in the ‘off-season’, where she has some leeway in terms of calories, rather than a prep when she is trying to cut weight and get ready for a competition.
Once she starts preparing for a contest, the diet changes and becomes far more restrictive. Jennifer takes out all junk food and reduces her calories to below maintenance. This way, she gradually loses fat, rather than dropping it too fast, and she can also maintain the muscle mass that she had worked so hard to obtain.
Jennifer says that contest prep can be mentally draining, however, she’s well aware of what it takes to become a champion.
Jennifer Dorie Wrap Up
For Jennifer Dorie, training hard is something that fulfills her as it keeps her strong, healthy, and honestly happy, even when it is coming down to show time and she is going through the grueling process of a prep. Earning titles and winning trophies is something that motivates Jennifer to go to new levels in fitness, and continue to improve year after year.
Jennifer has a mentality that is all about winning or learning. There is no defeat in Jennifer’s books, and as you can see, regardless of her placings in her competitions she continues to come back each year with a strong mindset and new goals. She does not perceive a loss as a ‘failure’. Regardless of where she places in a show, it is just a lesson learned for her and she will come back better and stronger.
This can be taken as a metaphor for life honestly. Do not let something you do not succeed at bring you down or hold you back, look at it as a learning opportunity and a reason to come back better.
After her 2023 victory, do you think that Jennifer Dorie will be taking home the crown again next year?
