Serena Williams gives fans an update on her fitness journey.
The tennis player shared a video via Instagram, trying on a denim Valentino skirt, which she wore pre-pregnancy. “Ok everyone, I have been working my off! Let’s see what happens with my jean skirt. Can I fit it yet? Check it out!,” she captioned the video.
“Honestly, I feel like it’s going to fit the same, because I’ve been gym-ing a lot, but I don’t know if the needle is moving,” the retired tennis champion says as she is trying on the skirt.
Williams ultimately wasn’t able to fit the skirt… YET. “I just wanna cry, but I’m not,” she jokes. “I’m gonna stop eating… all those snacks,” she says.
The video comes after Williams sent fans into a frenzy after she hints that she’s ready to return to the court. “I’m ready to hit some balls again..” she wrote via X.
The mother of 2 retired back in 2022 after she says she ready to simply focusing on being a mom. “There comes a time in life when we have to decide to move in a different direction. That time is always hard when you love something so much.”
“My goodness do I enjoy tennis. But now, the countdown has begun.”
She continued: “I’m here to tell you that I’m evolving away from tennis, toward other things that are important to me.”
“I have to focus on being a mom, my spiritual goals and finally discovering a different, but just exciting Serena.”
“These days, if I have to choose between building my tennis résumé and building my family, I choose the latter.”
