Read on to see 5 ways Tay Conti 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. Wrestling Is Her Main Workout

“My training routine is kind of crazy, because I do a lot of traveling,” she told Kung Fu Kingdom. “So, I don’t really have a set routine, but of course, wrestling is my priority. I have some great people who help me with things like diet too, and whenever I have time, I train in judo and jiu-jitsu. So a lot of it depends on my traveling schedule, but for the ring material, I’m always preparing for that.”

2. She Plays Soccer

Tay has another surprising stay-fit hobby: Soccer. “I started judo in a soccer club, so I’ve always had a love for soccer. So it’s like, Jiu-Jitsu, MMA, all martial arts, then soccer!” she said about her passions.

3. She Eats “Super Clean” Most of the Time

Tay eats healthy as often as possible. ”I try to eat super clean – but of course, I end up having pizza and burgers! Every time I’m on the road, I try to eat super clean. Rice and steak are my go to’s every time, and I also love carbs, so I have something with carbs every day,” she told Kung Fu Kingdom.

4. She Works Out Al Fresco

During a previous trip to Tulum, she shared photos and videos of an outdoor workout, doing squats and pullups in her swimsuit. “I’m in love with jungle gym 😍 workout in a bikini and with sea view ... it’s a dream,” she tweeted about the outdoor gym.

5. She Has a Positive Attitude

Tay lives by the following mantra: “Believe in yourself.” She told Kung Fu Kingdom: It’s so simple and cliché, but I think it’s really important. When you believe in yourself and put in hard work, anything can happen. Whether you’re poor, or rich, and have your family helping you out, if you believe in yourself, and you work hard, you’ll be able to do whatever you want.”

Wrestling champion Nia Jax (real name Savelina Fanene) is taking a break from the madness of the fighting ring to relax, breathe, and enjoy the beauty of nature. Jax, 39, shared pictures of herself wearing black workout gear, looking zen and serene as she sat outside in a yoga pose. “Full of gratitude 🙏🏽,” she captioned the post. Here’s what inspired Jax to lose weight, gain a huge amount of confidence, and become an even better fighter.

1. Pilates and Personal Training

Jax says she is currently training in preparation for her return to the ring. "I am training. I'll train over at D-Von Dudley's ring,” she told Bill Apter, via Cultaholic. “He's great and then I go over to Nattie and TJ's [Natalya & TJ Wilson], so they run me through some drills and stuff like that and I have matches. I'll get in the ring every now and then with some of my friends like Charlotte [Flair] and her husband, Manny [Andrade El Idolo)... Right now, I'm enjoying being at home with my family. I have a new nephew and I've kind of started being obsessed with Pilates.”

2. Pickleball Matches

Jax enjoys pickleball matches with her friends, which is a great way to get a cardio workout while having fun. “I think one of the things that we as a society have underestimated is the benefit of being outdoors, and a lot of pickleball is played in the setting of existing tennis courts or other newer courts that are being specially designed for pickleball that are outdoors,” cardiologist and Harvard Medical School professor Dr. Calum MacRae tells CNBC. “Something like pickleball, which is an active, social sport and builds community, sustains people in regular exercise over time. It’s really something that for us is exciting to see.”

3. Losing 48 Pounds

Jax lost a whopping 48 pounds in just six months after feeling uncomfortable at friend Charlotte Flair’s wedding. “Me to @MsCharlotteWWE after her wedding: ‘I feel gross & uncomfortable! I want to lose weight’. @MsCharlotteWWE to me: ‘Please let me help you! You got this woman.’ Officially started in October…6 months later, down 48lbs🥺🙏🏽 Sends me killer workouts and motivates me 💪🏾🥺,” Jax tweeted. Nice work!

4. No Glam Squad

Jax takes care of her own pre-ring prep, no glam squad needed or necessary. “I really take pride in doing my own make-up all the time which takes me about 40 minutes, and my hair takes another 15 to 20 minutes,” she told Metro. “Putting on my gear is probably another 15 minutes, so all in all I don’t think an hour and a half is too bad!”

5. Body Type Pride

Jax is proud to represent a different body type in the wrestling world. "I noticed they were always beautiful women but skinnier and smaller than me," she told Refinery29. "I just never really saw somebody like me in the business, and I didn't think that somebody like me would fit in to that business. Maybe a young girl seeing me and not feeling comfortable in her group can feel like, Oh my gosh, look, she went out there and she’s different and I look like her and she’s kicking ass and she’s taking names. Maybe one day I can do that and I should just embrace who I am.”

MMA and UFC fighter Amanda Nunes is displaying the self-confidence that led her to a stellar fighting career. Nunes, 35, shared a picture of herself posing against a green screen in UFC shorts and a tank top, looking tough and ready to fight. “I can do anything!” she captioned the post. Nunes has earned her reputation as one of the most skilled fighters in MMA—here’s how she stays fit and strong for whatever is next.

1. Home Gym

Nunes’s training gym is an extension of her home. “I'm in a new place, too, so make everything easy,” she tells Laura Sanko on One on One. “Upstairs, I have a place to rest. I don't need to go back home, drive home, and then go back to the gym. So when I'm done with my training in the morning, I stay in my studio upstairs. I have a very nice setup with the kitchen, and living room for rest. Reagan's playground, too. So we have a pretty comfortable gym to stay right after training, get rest, and jump in the next class, you know.”

2. Weight Training Sessions

Nunes’ workout is heavily focused on weight training. “Before beginning strength training, consider warming up with brisk walking or another aerobic activity for five or 10 minutes,” the Mayo Clinic advises. “Cold muscles are more prone to injury than are warm muscles. Choose a weight or resistance level heavy enough to tire your muscles after about 12 to 15 repetitions. When you can easily do more repetitions of a certain exercise, gradually increase the weight or resistance.”

3. New Training Camp

Nunes’ camp is different now she is no longer working with her old team at ATT [American Top Team]. “I’m grateful for everything I did with them, they helped me a lot,” she tells Sanko. “We did great things. But I want to do it on my own now. My training has been great… We've been walking. And the new [coach] is the jiu jitsu coach. He's a fighter too. So that was an easy introduction to my camp too, and amazing. I pretty much keep the same kind of schedule that I used to have when I became a champion. When I become a double champion, of course, I just put in more things, new things, and change a couple of things, but no injuries at all.”

4. Pool Time

Nunes’ social media shows her frequently hitting the pool with her family. “As cardiovascular exercises go, swimming offers a little less wear and tear on the body than other options,” exercise physiologist Christopher Travers, MS, tells Cleveland Clinic Health Essentials. “It’s a good choice for just about anyone. When you swim, you’re getting better aerobic capacity, and you’re working your muscles because you’re working against the resistance of the water.”

5. Horseback Riding

Nunes enjoys horseback riding (she really is good at everything). “Recreational horseback riders report a significantly higher sense of physical and emotional well-being and happiness than people who don’t enjoy the companionship of animals,” says the American Heart Association. “More than 80% of riders claim that horseback riding created feelings of relaxation and happiness.”

Kacey Musgraves is heating up the tropics in her swimsuit. The country singer shows off her gorgeous figure in a bathing suit in one of her latest social media snaps, taken during a vacation in Mustique. In the Instagram post, she rides on a horse, plays cards, and goes for an evening stroll in her swimwear. “How I wish to be the tiny turtle in the palm of your hand,” commented one of her followers. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Kacey Musgraves stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

Kacey works out with celebrity trainer Erin Opera, who told PureWow she works hard in the gym. “Kacey has worked her butt off and I couldn’t be prouder of her. We’ve been able to keep her on track with the crazy schedule she’s had over the last couple years,” Opera said.

2. She Does Tabata Style Workouts

“Some workouts that we’ve loved doing that can be done on the bus are Tabatas. I also love turning fitness into a game because why not make it fun but still challenging?” Opera told PureWow. “Tabatas are a four-minute workout that involves 20-second bursts of exercise followed by 10 secs of rest for 8 rounds. You can do so much with it.” Here is an example:

• Round one: Pushups
• Round two: Plank with chest taps
• Repeat rounds one and two until you complete eight rounds.

3. She Does Sumo Squat Games

Opera also has Musgraves play this Sumo Squat game.

• Complete ten small sumo squat jumps (a sumo squat is just like a regular squat but your stance is wider than hip-width and feet and knees are pointing outward )
• Hold your squat for ten seconds in the down position
• Complete nine sumo squat jumps
• Hold in the down position for ten seconds
• Complete eight sumo squat jumps
• Hold in the down position for ten seconds and repeat this formula until you get down to a single rep.

4. She Does Bure Barre

Musgraves told Us that she also like Pure Barre. When she is traveling she brings the DVD with her. “I can do the workouts everywhere.” she said.

5. She Follows the 4 x 4 Diet

Erin follows Opera’s 4 x 4 diet, “a clean, healthy, balanced lifestyle so that they can still enjoy the foods they love, but in moderation.” She is allowed to drink alcohol, except in the week leading up to an award show. But other times, she is allowed to drink. “I’m not saying you can drink as much alcohol as you want, but I try to limit them to two drinks a week, which a lot of people are like, ‘Oh jeez! I need wine every night, that’s bologna!’ But literally you can do that.”
