Keep an eye on Alica Schmidt’s social media if you have any doubts that she is more than just a gorgeous face.
Since making her debut on the athletics world in 2017, when she earned a silver medal in the 400-meter relay at the under-20 European Championships, the 24-year-old has built a sizable internet fan base. Schmidt was a coveted track prospect before she ever discovered her social media presence, despite the fact that it would be tough to miss the blonde beauty’s excellent looks.
The kind of behind-the-scenes labour that goes into creating a top runner was also demonstrated to Schmidt’s 3.4 million Instagram followers. Following on from her selection as an unused part of Germany’s relay squad at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Schmidt is hard at work as she looks towards next year’s Summer Games in Paris.
The most recent uploads from the middle-distance expert and hurdler were exhausting to see, let alone perform. Schmidt began by limbering up at the trackside with several exercises that mostly targeted her lower body, as is advised before any workout.
Before beginning an ab exercise for the ages, she warmed up her hips, hamstrings, glutes, and quads with resistance bands. Schmidt’s form was up to par throughout thanks in part to the coaches, but she rarely looked anything less than flawless.
She then followed up with a flawless-looking post-workout photo, as if the activities themselves weren’t enough to make one feel terrible. The photo, which displayed her long, blonde hair in full view, made it difficult to believe the blue-eyed influencer had even worked up a sweat.
And Schmidt took the appropriate precautions during the warm-down, just as the warm-up portion of any workout has been shown to be essential. After her workout, she went to a pool on the beach to soak up the sun and moisturise her skin in what seemed to be ideal circumstances.
Schmidt will be hoping that all of this preparation pave the way for her to once again secure a spot in Germany’s Olympic team for the 2024 Paris Games.
Schmidt’s committed social media posts will already make her a success in the eyes of many followers, though winning a medal at the Summer Games wouldn’t hurt.
