It seems Becky Lynch’s workout and diet is a perfect pair with Seth Rollins.
Especially to fit into this WWE marathon we’re on at the moment.
We had a request for some female WWE Stars that led to a whole slew of superstars.
Originally we started by seeing Trish Stratus but that led us to Sasha Banks, Paige, and then even Roman Reigns last week.
Prior to this little marathon we had only seen guys like The Rock, John Cena, Dave Bautista and some other random WWE stars show up here and there.
Becky Lynch Stats:
Height: 5’6
Weight: (approximate) 135 lbs.
Age: 32 years old
Becky Lynch is actually right there at the average height we’ve seen among female celebs at SHJ.
Which isn’t that surprising considering our other WWE females seemed to be around the same range as well.
Normally the average height we see for women is around 5’4-5’6 with ladies such as Jennifer Aniston, Margot Robbie, Olivia Munn, Alicia Vikander, Sophia Bush, Tatiana Maslany, Evangeline Lilly, and a ton of others.
But then there is also that taller range, and among the tallest (even taller than the 5’7-5’8), are ladies like Gwendoline Christie, Gal Gadot, and a few others – with Phoebe Tonkin, Gabrielle Union, Brie Larson, Nina Dobrev, Daisy Ridley, and so many more coming in around that 5’7-5’8 range.
And, let’s not forget the shorter ladies of SHJ like Ariana Grande, Scarlett Johansson, Mila Kunis, Emilia Clarke, Lucy Hale, Julianne Hough and a good handful of others.
But, either way, don’t worry.
I write these routines for anyone and everyone.

Becky Lynch Diet and Nutrition
Becky Lynch eats an organic diet.
Or at least that’s what she puts Steve Austin through in his show “Straight Up Steve Austin”!
She tells Austin that she tries her best to stay organic, which can be difficult on the road, but for the most part it’s an adventure and she does her best to stay with it.
In an interview with News-Press Becky also gives a ton of other interesting information about her diet and nutrition:
Favorite cuisine to eat: Toast. I love me some toast.
Favorite dish from your childhood: Pizza
Things you can’t get through the day without: Coffee, music, exercise, oatmeal and bananas
Favorite quick meal: Usually I go to oatmeal and egg whites.
Guilty food pleasure: Chocolate
Food aversion you can’t get over: I have never eaten fish in my life nor do I ever intend to.
Favorite pre-bout meal: I find it hard to eat too close to a match, but I will sometimes grab some rice cakes.
Do you cook, and if so, what was your biggest cooking disaster? I love to cook! Recently I tried making banoffee pie for Thanksgiving and I was whipping the cream in a blender and I forgot to put the top on. There was whipped cream all over my kitchen.
What would be your last meal? It would definitely be a buffet with sweet potato fries, burgers, salad, lots of roasted veggies, plus lots of cake and chocolate and, to top it off, tea and toast.
I’m really hungry while writing this article, actually (about 20 hours or so into my 18 hour fast for the day…), so oatmeal, egg whites, chocolate and even rice cakes sound great!
Judging by this interview, though, Becky Lynch seems to have her “go-to” meals when it comes to her daily diet and regime.
Becky Lynch also continues by saying:
What are your plans for dinner tonight? To sit in WWE catering and make a beautiful, colorful salad. Green salad, grilled veggies, some berries and top it off with feta cheese, chickpeas and almond slivers.
Salad, anyone?
We see a lot of celebs opt for a sustainable approach like this.
That’s why our Academy Nutrition Classes (Monks, Minimalists, SuperHumans, Vikings, Spartans, Hunter Gatherers, Greek Gods, Samurais) revolve around helping you find the specific diet that is right FOR YOU.
Of course, there are a lot of reasons to HAVE the strict guidelines.
We’ve seen a lot of celebs opt for specific restrictions.
For example: Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart incorporate 80/20 dieting with big weekly cheat meals, Hugh Jackman, Benedict Cumberbatch and Terry Crews utilize intermittent fasting(something I use daily as well), Mustafa Shakir and Madelaine Petsch are vegans, Brandon Routh and Frank Grillo opt for paleo, and tons of others utilize their own variations as well.
And, that’s just to name a few celebs from each, by the way.
You can check out our Nutrition Pillars for more information and articles on all of the above and more.

Becky Lynch Workout Routine Research
Becky Lynch posts a lot of her training to her Instagram, so we have some videos to base her training on.
She’s also dating Seth Rollins and has been featured with him in Muscle and Fitness.
Which is another reason Rollins’ routine is perfect to pair with Lynch this week.
If we base the programming on Rollins’ training we’ll have a pretty hefty CrossFit workout.
Here’s what Rollins tells M&F:
“Becky and I have opposite strengths when it comes to workouts,” Rollins says. “I’m more skill-oriented, so when it comes to gymnastics-like movements or weightlifting, like doing a snatch, I have an advantage. But her engine is on another level. If she has movements that are just go, go, go, she’s going to outrun me every single time. I’m always trying to play catch-up to her when it comes to those workouts.”
And the interview continues with Lynch and Rollins by going into some detail with one of their trainers:
“I try to keep it as fresh as possible because I’m going on my fifth year training with Seth and my third year with Becky,” says Gallegos. “It’s not just the same mundane thing over and over. I try to keep their barbell lifts and their weight training in the same vein as CrossFit in the sense that it changes every week.” WWE athletes are notorious for being on the road frequently, so Gallegos makes sure that he gives them the tools to stay on their program.
“Sometimes I’ll get a phone call from Becky that’s like, ‘Hey, I can’t make it into a gym today. Can you give me a workout to do in the hotel?’ And so I’ve got to, on the fly, fix either her workout to be done in a hotel gym or write her a completely new one.”
But they’re not just paired together in the interview for no reason. These two train together whenever they can.
Here’s some more from the article:
“They’re both very competitive, and so now their programming has kind of been morphed into one. Seth lifts more weight than Becky, but they still do the same kind of workout, though there are some skills that Becky’s still working on that Seth has already mastered.”
This actually works out nicely because with CrossFit a lot of the movements are already pre-programmed to adhere to different weights for men and women.
Which allows Rollins and Lynch to compete and Lynch to sprint ahead!
Of course when it comes to their typical weight-lifting (which we still added in to Rollins’ training), Seth will be lifting more.
BUT, we have also seen Lynch post about her extremely impressive heavy deadlifting.
It’s reported she can lift over 300 lbs!
So don’t think your weight-lifting being mixed into the CrossFit is going to be any different because Lynch is a woman. It’s still time to lift heavy before the WODs!

Becky Lynch Workout Routine
Training Volume:
5+ days per week
Explanation:
We’re going to be working right off Seth Rollins workout. These two are a pair and these two train together and against each other (friendly competition).
Lucky for us many of the CrossFit workouts will adhere to giving you multiple weights (if you dig a little deeper), where you’ll find things listed like “95/65” which means 95 lbs for the men and 65 lbs for the women. So they have built in gender programming!
You have some options here. I’m going to give you THIRTY different beginner WODs to choose from, and then a handful of more advanced WODs that we’ve been utilizing for the other WWE Stars workouts as well. Between those, and the addition of The Murph Challenge, you’ll build out your plan and work your way up. I’ll give you a sample program/schedule to start you out as well.
