Brie Bella Reveals Intense Olympic Weightlifting Training For WWE Return

Brie Bella has putting in serious work s for her return to WWE, and the training behind the comeback looks very different from what she was used to earlier in her career.

The Bella Twins are stepping back into the ring during a time when the WWE women’s division has grown deeper and more competitive than ever. Because of that, Brie Bella and Nikki Bella have been ramping up their preparation with a combination of ring training and strength work.

During an appearance on Access Daily discussing their comeback, Brie explained that Nikki has pushed her into a completely new style of training — Olympic weightlifting. For years, Brie relied heavily on Pilates and yoga to stay in shape during her wrestling career, but this time around the focus has shifted toward building strength.

“Oh my gosh, we are. So you know, between like training in the ring and then Nikki’s gotten me weightlifting, so I’ve been doing all this Olympic style lifting with her. It’s been crazy.”

Brie admitted she wasn’t immediately sold on the new workout routine. Olympic lifting was far outside the training style she had relied on for years, and the first couple months required a lot of adjustment as her body adapted to the heavier workload.

“I was scared at first because I’m like, ‘Okay, I don’t know about this.’ I was always into Pilates and yoga, but I actually cannot believe how strong I am.”

Once she pushed through that early learning curve, the results started to show. Brie explained that as the weights increased and her strength improved, the entire process became more rewarding.

“It’s like that first two months you’re kind of just adapting, so you’re sore. And then all of a sudden when you start going up in your weight and you’re feeling good, I’m like, ‘All right.’ It becomes addicting.”

Brie also pointed out that the benefits go beyond wrestling itself. According to her, the training has improved how she feels physically both inside the ring and in everyday life.

“When you’re in the ring, just outside where we are in life, it’s really good for us.”

With the Bella Twins now training harder than ever for their WWE comeback, it’s clear they’re not approaching this return lightly. The real question is whether their revamped training routine will help them climb back to the top of the women’s division.
