Game of Throne star
Sophie Turner
Stark is turning heads with her latest
fitness transformation
. In a new social media snap, Turner flaunted her impressive
six-pack abs
during a recent bachelorette party for singer Taura Lamb. While her ripped body has left everyone in absolute awe, there have been rumours that the actor is all set to play Lara Croft in the upcoming Amazon TV series adaptation of Tomb Raider, according to a report in Variety.
It wouldn't be a surprise that her work has inspired this unbelievable transformation as the actor previously revealed in an interview with Self that she truly got into exercising before she began filming 2016's X-Men: Apocalypse. 'During the shoot I went hard,' she told Self. 'And that hasn't stopped.' Despite working 13-hour a day, she still took time for hour-long workouts six days a week.
Turner's impressive wellness journey was elevated by
celebrity trainer
James Farmer who modified her diet and filled the gaps that earlier affected her fitness levels.
From skipping breakfasts to not eating the right foods, the GoT star made a range of health gaffes earlier.
Overcoming the mental blocks
To achieve her fitness goals and sustain them, the actress also had to overcome health challenges and mental blocks. Behind the gloss and shine of her popular screen character in GoT, Turner was battling bulimia, a serious eating disorder, which triggered due to online bullying and immense pressure. With the help of a live-in therapist Turner could steer herself in the direction of body positivity and sustainable health.

Sophie Turner's workout routine
1.
HIIT
The GoT star prefers high-intensity interval training (HIIT), including running, burpees, and resistance band exercises. She loves to sweat and do high intensity exercises. She told W that boxing features among her favourites. These workouts help in improving agility, coordination, and stamina.
2. Full-body strength workouts
Rather than isolating muscle groups, Turner leans into full-body strength training, often using kettlebells and other weighted equipment.
These compound movements not only enhance posture and balance but also empower her with a sense of physical confidence. It's not just about looking strong, it's about feeling strong.
3. Outdoor activities
Turner's routine also has a fun element as she loves to do hill sprints, cycling, and play tennis. Getting outdoors can also boost mental clarity and reduce stress, a key element of her holistic wellness approach.
4. Boxing
One of Turner's favorite forms of exercise is boxing, which she's practiced at studios like Rumble in NYC and Unbreakable in LA.
Boxing delivers a serious cardio burn and enhances coordination while offering a therapeutic outlet for stress.
5.
Goat Yoga
Being in alignment with nature surely helps motivate and this is the reason Turner vouches by goat yoga. "The excitement I felt throughout my body when I saw the goats walk in was just complete and pure ecstasy," she told British Vogue. "I've never felt that excited about anything in my life, ever, and I've been proposed to and that wasn't even the best day of my life.
This was."
Sophie Turner's diet
One of the first changes Turner made in her wellness routine is she stopped skipping breakfast. Missing this key meal was a mistake that affected Turner's energy levels and metabolism. Scientific studies back this up, linking irregular eating patterns with increased risks of obesity and heart disease.
'When I first met Sophie, she didn't eat breakfast, which is a common mistake,' her fitness trainer told the magazine.
'And I didn't think she was eating enough of the right foods. So I made sure she had a good source of protein and healthy fats with every meal, plus lots of fibrous vegetables like spinach and cauliflower.'
Paleo-style diet
Turner adopted a Paleo-style diet, focusing on natural, nutrient-dense foods and avoiding processed items. Her staples include:
Lean, grass-fed proteins: Chicken, turkey, wild-caught fish, and omega-rich seafood.
Healthy fats: Avocado, coconut oil, and olive oil.
Low-glycemic fruits and fibrous vegetables: Think spinach, cauliflower, and berries.
Nuts, seeds, and dried fruit: Perfect for snacking without blood sugar crashes.
No processed sugars, legumes, or refined grains: She keeps her diet simple and clean.
Protein shakes
Turner loves Vega Vanilla Protein with a tablespoon of macadamia nut butter, half a banana and almond milk.
Hydration and mindful eating
Sophie drinks plenty of water throughout the day to support digestion, recovery, and energy. Mindful eating also plays a role — listening to her body, eating until satisfied (not stuffed), and staying attuned to her emotional and physical cues.
