Ivanka Trump, 43, flashes her taut midriff as she showcases her enviable physique during workout

Ivanka Trump is sticking to her New Years' resolution - and she's proud of it. Ivanka, 43, showed off her taut figure in a snap posted to Instagram, wearing only a white sports bra and small blue bike shorts. 'Sticking to New Year's resolutions isn't easy — only 23 percent of people make it past the first week,' she captioned the picture which showcased her enviable physique. The first daughter quipped that she's 'fallen into that category many, many times,' but pointed out that, 'every day is a new opportunity to show up and stay committed.'.

'Feeling stronger and more motivated as February begins — let's keep going,' she encouraged. 'Strong body/Strong mind!'. In January, the mom-of-three made a rare appearance on The Skinny Confidential Him & Her podcast, where she spoke about a wide variety of topics, covering everything from parenting to serving in the presidential administration. She credited combining weight lifting and eating high protein in helping her transform her figure.

'Something that I think has been a massive change for me since I moved to Miami, I started prioritizing exercise,' she revealed during the episode. Ivanka, 43, showed off her taunt figure in a snap posted to Instagram, wearing only a white sports bra and small bike shorts. 'Initially, that took the form of yoga and Pilates, these things that I had done at various points of my life, but now I had the ability, because I was on my own schedule, to make them more consistent and a more regular part of my life,' Ivanka said.

'Gradually, I started doing more resistance and weight training, and that's when I saw a massive difference,' she continued. 'My whole body changed. But that's when I really noticed a massive change for me, and my body composition fundamentally changed. I got stronger, I got leaner, and I could kind of get away with it because I'm really tall, so I can look lean even if I wasn't strong,' Ivanka said.

However, she admitted that while yoga and Pilates are definitely activities that she enjoys more than resistance training, she has noticed that they're not as effective for her body. 'Yoga and Pilates, while I enjoy them a lot more, to be honest, than resistance training, I was not able to develop muscle through them. I really needed this... it's been life-changing,' she admitted. She said what really works for her are the simple exercises, like 'pushes,' 'pulls' and 'deadlifts.'.

'I don't really enjoy doing it, I enjoy going for walks, I enjoy playing sports, I really enjoy Pilates and yoga, but I have seen such a transformation in terms of my health,' Ivanka said. 'But I can't mention that without saying the protein element, because it's that pairing of protein and resistance training and weight lifting... for a while I was doing weight lifting and I still was not consuming nearly enough protein, and I was not seeing the change,' the former Presidential advisor continued.

The first daughter quipped that she's 'fallen into that category many, many times,' but says every day is a new opportunity to show up and stay committed. Ivanka revealed that strength and diet was instrumental  in 'transforming' her body recently. The mom-of-three went quite in-depth on her various health and beauty routines, explaining that combining weight lifting and a high protein intake really helped change how she looked.

'I don't really enjoy doing it, I enjoy going for walks, I enjoy playing sports, I really enjoy Pilates and yoga, but I have seen such a transformation in terms of my health,' Ivanka said. 'It's when I married those two things that I started noticing a difference.'. When it comes to food, every morning, Ivanka will make a shake that's full of protein, banana, cacao, and creatine - a compound that helps to aid your muscles.

As part of my daily routine, it's pretty simple, I like to find and cultivate calm, because at basically every phase of my life, I now identify this as the status quo, there's always a hurricane that I find myself in,' Ivanka said. 'It's always so busy and active, whether that's my role as a parent, professionally or otherwise, so things that help me with that, I think prayer is really helpful. 'I think being grounded in nature, so I take walks as often as I can.'.
