Considered as one of the greatest Diva’s of all times, who worked with WWE for nine successful years, Torrie Wilson is an athlete, model, entertainer, entrepreneur, health coach and soul nurturer, just the way she likes to call herself.
Torrie has appeared in the U.S version of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, featured in a music video and won the hearts of millions of fans on Instagram, post her release from WWE.
Once named among FHM’s 100 sexiest women, Torrie works extremely hard to train and maintain her enviable body and inspire those around her.
To find out more about this stunning wonder woman, Women Fitness President, Namita Nayyar, joins her in a quick chat about how she trains to get the body that every woman at 40 craves for, and so much more in an all-exclusive interview.
Namita Nayyar:
Define your life as a Professional Wrestler.
Torrie Wilson:
A whirlwind! Traveling nearly 300 days per year, I was never quite sure what day it was but the places, people and things I experienced, all over the world, were the most amazing gift. I grew up in a ver small town and all I ever wanted was to see the world. It gave me a perspective on life and people that I appreciate more today than ever.
Namita Nayyar:
You are a Model, Fitness Coach, Actress and Businesswoman. Which role defines you the best?
Torrie Wilson:
Hmmm. I would say none of those things define me. Those are all things I do, none of them define me as a person. I think too often we get lost in the attachment of “being” what our career or job is at the time and lose sight of who we are at the heart of it all. I would say who I am is a person that loves a lot and wants to bring happiness to others or help them in some way if I can. That is the common thread that I bring from myself throughout all of those roles….and also while any of them can be gone tomorrow and I still remain “me”.

Namita Nayyar:
What is your most favourite workout routine?
Torrie Wilson:
I’m somewhat obsessed with stairs. Doing them is like meditation for me and more for my head than for my body. I like to do 30-40 minutes almost everyday and add in my own made-up circuit with weights for 25-30 minutes on most days.
Namita Nayyar:
A healthy breakfast for you includes?
Torrie Wilson:
I eat the same breakfast almost all the time. 2 eggs on toast with coconut butter spread. Sometimes I get crazy and add turkey bacon. I have found it’s the perfect amount for me to start my day with and gives me good energy.
Namita Nayyar:
Your favourite fitness icon?
Torrie Wilson:
Oh gosh there are so many amazing fitness icons these days it’s hard to pick just one! Jillian Michaels would be an obvious one. She has changed so many lives and probably had the ultimate career. I’ve never met her, but follow her on Instagram and love her down to earth realness.
Namita Nayyar:
How do you like to train your body? 3 Must-do exercises for legs, abs & upper body?
Torrie Wilson:
Legs: Walking Lunges, Jump Squats, Stairs
Abs: Heavy weighted seated machine crunches, wood chops (any variation), Rope pull downs
Namita Nayyar:
When and what do you have for dinner? And on weekends?
Torrie Wilson:
I try to eat every 3-4 hours and dinner is usually around 7:30. I am always hungry and it’s always different. I would say the dinner I have most often is chicken tacos. I make yummy ones. Weekends I often end up eating out. I find it’s really easy to eat healthy while out these days as long as you know the things to watch out for but I do not count every morsel that goes into my mouth and feel that once you get to a place you are happy at and workout as hard as I do, counting calories becomes unnecessary. It’s more about portion control and eating healthy 80% of the time.
Namita Nayyar:
What would be your tip for women in their 40s to maintain their physique?
Torrie Wilson:
People always say diet is the number 1 factor and while I think it’s obviously important, my number 1 tip is to LIFT WEIGHTS. We naturally lose muscle as we age and it’s important to work hard at keeping it. As we age, just being thin can make us look older. Full muscles keep you looking younger and burn more calories all day long.
PS. Don’t be afraid of lifting heavy either.:)
Namita Nayyar:
What is your skin and hair care after a sweaty workout?
Torrie Wilson:
I always shower after a workout but wash my hair every other day. I like to keep my routine simple and short. I use charcoal soap on my face and have found that it helps keeps breakouts at bay after sweaty workouts. I love makeup and have a ton of it but most days end up only wearing Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser, bronzer and concealer. Eyelash extensions have become an obsession lately because they are so easy and less makeup feels required.
Namita Nayyar:
Your favourite activewear brands are?
Torrie Wilson:
Alo yoga, Lorna Jane, Alo Yoga, Alo Yoga lol
Namita Nayyar:
One thing that you miss about your wrestling days the most?
Torrie Wilson:
The overseas trips. It was always fun traveling with all my buds. Probably also one of the most exhausting things about wrestling as well though.
Namita Nayyar:
Define Women Fitness for viewers.
Torrie Wilson:
It’s about CONFIDENCE, strength and empowerment. About taking control of your body and life. I firmly believe living in a strong, healthy body you are proud of, will seep into all other areas of life. Relationships especially. Of course we all want to look good, but that’s only the beginning.
Namita Nayyar:
How do you prepare a night before a photoshoot?
Torrie Wilson:
It’s evolved tremendously! I used to take water pills to look leaner and slather on the darkest fake tan, nowadays I prefer to make sure I have plenty of SLEEP first. I still like having somewhat of a tan, muscles always look better with a tan. (spray of course) And of course the nails should be clean. That’s about it.
Namita Nayyar:
After a long hard-working day, you relax with?
Torrie Wilson:
Nothing like a glass of red wine, a salt bath and candles!
Namita Nayyar:
Social media has grown big now. What is the best part about it?
Torrie Wilson:
Being able to connect with people all over the world in an instant. I love that I can motivate people across the world and send them positivity so easily. It’s awesome to be able to connect with like minded people everywhere.
Namita Nayyar:
You have turned into a fitness coach with www.coachtorrie.com. What inspired you to start it?
Torrie Wilson:
Fitness has always been a huge passion. I was doing fitness magazines long before wrestling. I also have a huge desire to help others feel CONFIDENT and strong in their own skin. If I can help others feel more confident and healthy I can’t think of anything more cool. I literally sob reading letters from people after I have helped them lose weight and it brings me so much joy.
Namita Nayyar:
5 things we’ll always find in your gym bag?
Torrie Wilson:
Wireless headphones, workout band, water, gum, hair ties.
Namita Nayyar:
Supplements of your choice for women looking for weight loss & building strength?
Torrie Wilson:
Nothing beats eating the right foods. I do love l-tyrosine though (free form amino acid) because it gives me energy and helps with focus.
Namita Nayyar:
Resolutions or goals for 2019?
Torrie Wilson:
My biggest goal right now is finishing up my FITtensity programs I have developed for men and women. 8 different downloadable programs based on goal for men & women. I’ve been working on them for almost a year. This is my alternative for those that want a more affordable option to customized programs.
Namita Nayyar:
Message for your 810K followers on Instagram?
Torrie Wilson:
Your awesome energy is appreciated every darn day. I have the coolest people on social media.
