Finally, there’s some positive news! After a couple of days since the news broke about the theft of luxury cars, the police have made an arrest. It all happened after three luxury vehicles—a silver Mercedes Benz AMG, a red Lamborghini Urus, and a white Range Rover—were stolen from the residence where Beck and Cavinder were staying. While this high-profile crime brought a lot of unwanted attention to Hanna, she has since moved forward.
For her, it’s her career that truly matters. Though the Cavinder twins have decided not to use their fifth year of eligibility, what are they up to now? Well, it appears that the two are planning to help people dealing with the same disorder they once struggled with. “Anyone who knows us knows how much we love eating healthy and fueling our bodies the right way. It took years for us to find help from severe restriction/eating disorders to firsthand experience fueling our bodies with the right macronutrients. Which has led to our newest program coming soon…” read the caption on their Instagram post.
Since it took them years to learn how to fuel their bodies with the right macronutrients, they are now ready to help others. They announced a new program coming soon via an Instagram post. To make it even more impressive, they’ve added one-on-one personal nutrition coaching with full access to workout plans through their app, TWOgether.

Not just that—they’re also offering a 12-week nutritional guide that is customized, weekly check-in calls for progress, and unlimited access to the twins’ coaching. Well, this isn’t the first time the twins have opened up about their struggles with eating disorders.
On June 2, 2023, World Eating Disorders Action Day, the twins posted a video on YouTube in which they candidly shared their struggles with eating habits. “We want to help people, genuinely want to help people,” Haley shared. “So feel free to reach out. Do not be afraid to talk to somebody and admit it.”
Their struggles date back to their transition from Fresno State to Miami. When they were battling these disorders, it was their determination to be at their best in basketball that led to extreme dietary restrictions.
“Going into Miami, obviously, Haley and I were trying to prepare, trying to be the best we can at basketball,” Hanna expressed. “Trying to fuel our bodies. If we do something, we’re going to do it 100%. There’s no in-between. So, it’s extreme, right? That’s just kind of how our minds work.” But, as usual, the process wasn’t as easy as it may appear.

How the Cavinder Twins’ mom became their lifesaver
With the intensity of their approach to diet, their habits soon became harmful. “We need to eat a certain amount of calories a day,” Hanna added. “But we’re burning so many calories. We’re not taking in enough.”
At this point, their mother recognized the severity of the situation and, unbeknownst to them, even reached out to their coaches at Fresno State.
“It did get extremely bad when we were in Fresno,” Haley said. “I remember, just going through the timeline with you guys, my mom had to reach out—she never told us this until afterward—but had to reach out to our coaches there because she knew we were starving ourselves.”

The situation was so extreme that both of them were physically affected. While Hanna experienced hair loss, Haley faced hormonal imbalances as a result of poor diet. However, they’ve since gotten a dietitian to help them improve. It was Kathryne “Kat” Padgett who helped them maintain their body weight.
“Their maintenance calories—the amount of calories needed to maintain their body weight—was found to be 2,300 calories on average for their activity level as collegiate athletes,” Padgett revealed. According to their dietician, the twins were consuming a mere 1,300 calories per day with 30 grams of carbs. So, it makes perfect sense why the twins are crafting such programs. What do you think? Will they be successful in their aim to reach more people?
