1. She Eats Enough Protein

Kostek makes sure to get enough protein in her diet. She shared her secrets for doing so with E! News. "I've never been someone who counts calories. I've been a very intuitive eater for years and I noticed the difference when I was not meeting my protein goals. For me, I'm so happy to be working with Optimum Nutrition. You can imagine being with Rob [Gronkowski] and working out with him that protein is a big thing in this house. He's always on me about meeting my protein goals."

2. She Makes Her Own Food

Kostek likes to make a lot of her meals. She shared one of her favorite recipes with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit. “I love my lunch to be bake-free whenever possible. I like cooking at night but in the middle of the day, when I am very hungry, I like to have recipes that I can whip up quickly and are healthy. My go-to no-bake recipe would have to be a can of garbanzo beans strained and washed mixed with tomato, bell peppers, feta, cucumbers and avocado, topped with olive oil, Himalayan salt, cracked pepper and a dash of lemon juice.”

3. She Believes In Balance

Kostek eats a balanced diet. She talked about this on her Instagram stories. "It's always been my goal to eat as clean as possible as much as possible. Making meals/snacks/drinks with ingredients I know and understand. When I'm out to eat, this is much harder/or on the road at airports/on sets, etc., and I allow myself to eat unhealthy when I'm in a mood to and enjoy it."

4. She Sets Attainable Goals

Kostek shared some of her wellness secrets with E! News. She says that she makes sure that the goals she sets are things she knows she can do. "I just want to set attainable goals and I like sharing that with people who may be looking for a little bit of inspiration. When I was setting goals last year, I wanted to do something that I knew I wouldn't give up on and it was doing things that actually give me joy. I've never been a cold turkey kind of person, but that's totally fine for anyone who is. For me, I'm all about the baby steps. If you let yourself down, pick yourself up, and keep going. I say to start with the little things like breathing deep.”

5. She Stays Hydrated

Kostek shared her typical diet in an interview with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit. In it, she shared how she makes sure to stay hydrated. “I like to stay as hydrated as possible so on top of drinking liters of water throughout the day I like to eat bowls of watermelon whenever I have a meal or am looking for a snack. It’s a great way to fill me up while hydrating my body and keeping my skin nice and hydrated.”

Camila Cabello has been enjoying a vacation with her family in the tropics. However, instead of just spending all day lounging on the beach, throwing down drinks, and feasting on food, she is staying active. On Wednesday the Havana singer shared a photo of her clad in a bikini while breaking a sweat. Read on to find out the workout that is helping Camila Cabello stay in shape while on her vacation—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bikini Photos!

1. Camila is Paddleboarding

“Nothin to do nowhere to be,” the 24-year-old captioned a photo of herself standup paddleboarding in a black bikini. The body confident singer stood aboard her board, holding a paddle in the air while posing for a photo. "Stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) has moved away from just a resort sport-something you can only find at fancy beachside properties-to an activity that you can do anywhere you can find a body of water. You can take a SUP class, go on a SUP trip, and rent SUP boards at most sporting goods stores," says Shape.

2. Stand Up Paddleboarding Is a Great Workout

A recent study conducted by The American Council on Exercise (ACE) found that standup paddleboarding offers a majorly beneficial core workout and is also a great form of cardio. And, from the look on Camila’s face, it is super fun as well. "ecause SUP involves maintaining your balance on a board with water underfoot, the belief is that your core muscles need to fire more to steady yourself. Study participants paddled at three levels of difficulty-light, somewhat hard, and hard/heavy (but not at maximal exertion). Researchers found that when people paddled at or above a light level of perceived exertion, the erector spinae (muscles of the back) and rectus abdominis (abdominal) muscles were stimulated enough to boost strength. The external obliques, on the other hand, weren't activated enough to improve strength unless people were paddling really hard," says Shape.

3. Camila Continues to Celebrate Her Body

During her beach vacation, Camila has been proudly showing off her curves. In a recent TikTok video titled “I luv my body” that went viral, she explained that she is full of self-confidence. “Being at war with your body is so last season. I am grateful for this body that lets me do what I need to do. We are real women with curves and cellulite and stretch marks and fat and we gotta own that baby!"

4. She is Anti-Airbrush Generally

It’s likely that the star isn’t using any filters or airbrushing her photos either. In 2019, she reminded fans that the bodies seen on social media aren’t always as real as they seem. "I'm writing this for girls like my little sister who are growing up on social media," she wrote in an Instagram story. "They're constantly seeing photoshopped, edited pictures and thinking that's reality, and everyone's eyes get used to seeing airbrushed skin, and suddenly they think THAT'S the norm. It isn't. It's fake. AND FAKE IS BECOMING THE NEW REAL." She added that "a completely unrealistic view of a woman's body," is promoted. "Girls, cellulite is normal. Fat is normal. It's beautiful and natural."

5. She Is Committed to Authenticity

“No matter who the person is or how much I want to impress them, I’m not going to let that rule how I act, how open I am, or what my opinion is,” she once told Elle about her commitment to self. “I’m just going to be myself. I listen to my gut. That’s all I can do.” "Self-compassion means accepting yourself as the imperfect person that you are. When you embrace the idea that you'll never be perfect, you can accept that mistakes are an important part of your life's journey that contribute to who you are. Being kinder to yourself also boosts your resiliency and makes you kinder and more compassionate toward others," says the Mayo Clinic.

Camille Kostek does a lot of different things in her professional life. She was a cheerleader for the New England Patriots, where she met longtime partner, Rob Gronkowski. She’s also a swimsuit model for Sports Illustrated. And recently, she put out a line of bikinis, and modeled one of them in a new Instagram post. She posed in a green bikini with pink straps, showing off her figure. She captioned the post, “Camille collection x @swimsuitsforall pieces are made to hug every inch of you and be worn with confidence asap. OHHHH and they’re on sale big time right now. I designed with this team with you in mind, and I know you’re going to love them.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Camille Kostek stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She Limits Her Makeup

Kostek is a model, which means she has to use a lot of makeup. However, when she isn’t working, she goes natural. “My number one tip is if you do not need to wear makeup for something, don’t,” Kostek says to People. “I never travel wearing makeup. That’s helped so much with my skin…If you need to look nice when you get off the plane, walk into the bathroom, touch up your skin and walk out looking like you never even flew.

2. She Removes Makeup

Kostek tells People that one of her skincare tips is removing all her makeup. “If I have a lot on from a red carpeted event, I’ll use a regular makeup wipe to remove it,” Kostek explains. “Then I use a gentle foaming cleanser, which really gets down into the skin rather than just helping remove the makeup. Instead of rubbing it all over the skin, you simply press it in. It’s such a delicate way to just apply it to the skin…then go to bed…rest and wake up beautifully regenerated.”

3. She Gets Lymphatic Drainage Massages

Kostek is all about having spa days. One of her favorite treatments is the lymphatic drainage massages. ​​“I try to go as often as needed,” Kostek tells Us Weekly. “Which is rare with all of my travel. I immediately notice sculpting in my legs and abdomen, where I hold a lot of inflammation and water weight. I like how refreshed I feel immediately after the treatment is completed.”

4. She’s All About Self-Care

Kostek has a busy schedule, but she always makes time for herself. She likes to do a lot of things for self-care. “I like to meditate, take baths at home with essential oils and salts and write in a journal,” she tells Stylish. “I like to write down affirmations and manifestations and usually before bed, I turn on meditative music. It puts me in a lost mind state to be free of stress and thought.”

5. She Owns Who She Is

Kostek admits to Stylish that she can be insecure. The way she gets herself out of this is owning herself fully. “I am one happy, bubbly girl, but sometimes my mind can wander and lose track of what I believe in,” she admits. “And that is owning all that you are. … There is only one you and that is your power. Accepting all that you are will lead you to live your best life and will allow you to be free and your true authentic self.”
