Introduction
Khloe Kardashian has been announced as the new brand ambassador for Hydrow, a company that makes rowing machines with screens. To promote the new deal, Khloe recently talked with People about her fitness journey and mental health importance to her.
Khloe Kardashian’s Fitness Aspirations
Khloe Kardashian has been a gym rat for years, and now she is focused on becoming muscular, not just skinny.
She says, “I like muscle. I know some girls, they just want to be slender, but I like to be muscular. [I like to] strengthen my body. I don’t just want to be skinny, I want to be really strong.”
For Khloe, working out is not just about the physical benefits but also about the mental health benefits. She describes fitness as a “journey” for her “mind, body and soul.”
She says, “Fitness just plays hand in hand with mental health, and when I just sit in the gym, I feel so accomplished. What you give to the gym, you get out of it.”
Khloe’s Workout Routine
Although Khloe admits that she has to give herself a pep talk to get active sometimes, she never regrets going to the gym.
“I mean, I might be lagging and finding any excuse in the book to not go at times, but once I’m done, that sense of accomplishment [sets in], like, ‘Okay, I feel good,’ and I’m on the right track that day.”
Khloe has recently started working out on Hydrow rowing machines and says that they allow her to have fun while breaking a sweat.
“I absolutely love that you’re able to have the monitor in front of you, and you get to have the experience that you’re on the water. And I just love the diversity of it all in all the different classes and different places you could travel to. Having a rower as part of my daily workout is just something that fulfills me, and it works so much of my body. Even if you don’t have time to do a full hour rowing workout, you can essentially get a full body workout for 86 percent of your muscles within 15 to 20 minutes.”
