Standing at just 5' tall and weighing in at roughly 95lbs, American Flat Track pro rider Shayna Texter doesn't immediately strike you as a highly competitive motorcycle racer.
But she is—and she just so happens to be one of the best in a sport almost entirely dominated by men.
One of just two professional female riders currently competing, Texter has absolutely dominated the 2017 circuit and is on her way to taking the No.1 spot in the AFT Singles championship—which, by the way, is pretty much unprecedented. She's a fierce competitor on the track, and even more fierce when it comes to her winning fitness and training regimen.

During the height of the American Flat Track season, Texter typically sticks to cardio three days a week, which means that she either runs two or three miles on a trail behind her house or uses the rowing machine. The rest of the week, however, you can find Texter training on her bike. And in the off-season, Texter's fitness routine gets taken up a few notches with this 60-minute routine.
