Nelly Korda in Two-Piece Workout Gear is “Beautiful”

Nelly Korda, a professional golfer with an illustrious career, has won 14 WPGA Tour titles and a gold medal at the 2020 Olympics. Known for her skill and determination on the course, Korda also made waves as a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model. A few weeks ago, she shared highlights of her November on Instagram, featuring moments with friends, her dog, and coffee breaks.

Ahead of the Le Golf National, Korda talked about why she took a break in a press conference. “My parents have always said, it’s very important to put your head down, grind, go to the gym but it’s also important to recharge your battery because sometimes with all the obligations that you maybe have off the golf course, and then all the emotions that you feel on the golf course that you go through, all the adrenaline, it tears at you a little bit. So it’s good to kind of step away and to recharge your batteries and to come back a little bit more fresh.”

Korda shared this video on Instagram of herself doing different exercises. One thing she is seen doing is lunges. The Mayo Clinic states that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

Korda is also seen doing squats with a barbell and resistance band in the previous Instagram video. Squats have a lot of benefits. Allina Health says, “The squat is one of the all-around best exercises to do for your lower body. It strengthens and tones muscles in your thighs, butt and calves and improves posture, balance, flexibility and inner core strength. Squatting also improves bone mineral density to keep your bones strong. Include squats in your exercise routine two to three days a week to reap the benefits from this dynamite move. Rest at least one day to allow muscle recovery.”
