Abby Champion is an extremely successful model. She has worked with brands like Chanel, Miu Miu, and Elie Saab. She and her fiance, Patrick Schwartzenegger recently took a trip to Cabo, and she shared some highlights on Instagram. In them, Champion is seen at the beach and playing padel. She captioned the post, “2025.”


She Works Out Regularly

Champion tells Net-A-Porter that she works out on a regular basis. “I workout every day, and if I’m in LA I do it twice a day. I do two hours of exercise and at least 30 minutes of recovery and I switch between five different classes: barre, pilates, dance cardio, hot pilates and a strength training class. I find it’s a good way to be off my phone and to be totally focused on my health, my wellbeing and my breathing. It makes me feel really good.”

She Has the Right Mindset

Champion makes sure to have the right mindset. She tells Net-A-Porter that this has helped with her career. “Modeling can be lonely. I would say that’s one of the hardest parts of the job because you travel by yourself so much. I struggled with that at the beginning of my career. But about a year ago I started working on my mindset, looking for more ways to make myself happy and to be positive about where I’m going and what I’m doing and it’s helped a lot.”

She Uses A Facial Roller and Face Masks

Champion has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared some of her secrets with Vogue. Champion likes to use a roller and a mask on her face. “Doing all of my rollers without a mask kind of hurts my skin barrier, and is too aggressive,” she says. “I do 50 [rolls] on one side [of the face] and 50 on the other side. I used to have such a puffy face, all throughout high school … Then, when I started modeling, I was like, ‘OK, I have to have a snatched face for the runway’.”

She Plays Padel

Abby Champion is seen on the Padel court.

Champion is seen playing padel in her Instagram post. The sport has a lot of benefits. ISM Sports states, “Padel tennis engages the core muscles throughout the game, improving body strength. The rotational movements involved in executing shots and the need to maintain balance activate the abdomen, lower back, and hip muscles. A strong core enhances your performance on the padel tennis court and promotes better posture and stability in daily life activities. Strengthening your core through this sport can help prevent back pain and improve overall body alignment.”

She Takes Fitness Classes

As you can see from her Net-A-Porter interview, Champion likes to take fitness classes to keep herself in shape. ACE Fitness states that going to these classes can have a lot of health benefits. “If you find yourself stuck in a fitness rut, group fitness can be a perfect option for adding variety to your routine, while also ensuring a well-rounded approach to exercise. Do you dread the idea of running on a treadmill to get your cardio in? Try attending a dance-based fitness class to improve endurance while burning just as many, if not more, calories. Feeling uninspired to focus on your flexibility? Try a yoga class to improve your range of motion and enhance your movement quality.”

“My health journey has had its ups + downs,” she continued in the same post. “I started modeling at a young age and felt the pressure to look a certain way.. fit the mold that my agents or clients wanted. But by far I am my own worst critic... one of my goals is to not be so hard on myself. I am constantly working towards that goal everyday, its not something you achieve overnight! I realized that being healthy isn’t just physical, it’s also mental, spiritual, and ultimately loving yourself to not listen to those negative voices in your own head! Give yourself some grace and know that you are beautiful and strong! I hope to share more of my fitness journey with you all! “

4. She Cooks Healthy Food

Hannah’s feed is filled with recipes and cooking demonstrations of meals she cooks for herself. Recently, she revealed how to make her Summertime Taco salad. “In the summer, I love making easy dishes that aren’t too heavy! This taco salad recipe with the added chips is BOMB and so simple to make! The best part is the creamy 2-ingredient salsa dressing,” she said.

5. She Is Active Outdoors

When she isn’t at the gym, you can find Hannah engaging in calorie-blasting outdoor activities. Tennis, pickleball and golf are just a few of the sports she plays. “Ace, Ace, Baby 😎 Took my first pickle ball lesson and fell in love with it 💜 If you haven’t tried it, definitely give it a swing lol!!” she captioned this recent post.

Read on to see 6 ways Abbie Chatfield 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 Used to Eat What She Wanted, When She Wanted

Prior to going on the Bachelor, Abbie didn’t really watch what she ate. “I kind of ate what I wanted, when I wanted,” she told Body + Soul. “Prior to going into the mansion, my diet was much worse than it is now.”

2. She Mixes Up Her Workouts

Abbie does a lot of exercising, mixing up her workouts. “I work out six days a week with a mix of HIIT, yoga, Pilates and just going for a run,” she told Body + Soul.

3. This Is What She Eats in a Day

Abbie starts off with a breakfast of yogurt with some frozen berries or pieces of fruit. Later in the morning she munches on corn thins with avocado spread. Then, for lunch she eats canned salmon with vegetables and a dash of rice. Dinner is usually a vegetarian patty or falafel wrap. If she has a sweet tooth she will have peanut butter with dates for dinner.

4. She Doesn’t Diet

“I don’t feel ashamed of how my body is,” Abbie said on her LiSTNR podcast, It’s A Lot with Abbie Chatfield “I’m not trying to lose weight.” She also pointed out that it is “fatphobic” to say that she looks better because she has lost weight. “In the last five or so years I have never intentionally gained or lost weight,” she revealed, adding that she’s not “doing a Kardashian and intentionally losing weight because of a trend,” but is sometimes too busy or stressed to eat. “I’m having a really hard time eating,” she admitted. “I’m having trouble finding time to eat, and then when I find time to eat I’m having a really hard time chewing food and a really hard time swallowing. I feel extremely nauseous when I eat food… It’s also stress.”

5. She Battled an Eating Disorder

“I did have definitely disordered eating and I had definite like, fatphobic thoughts that were ingrained in me by society and especially being a young woman in the early 2000’s,” Abbie added on her podcast. “I’ve worked so hard to not have those thoughts and I think I’m really proud of myself for genuinely not working out for how I look, not eating for how I look, genuinely enjoying food and genuinely being able to enjoy exercise and be more worried about whether I’m eating enough and what I’m eating and making sure I have the right nutrients.”

6. She Works Out When She Feels Like It

Abbie told Yahoo Lifestyle that she listens to her body and exercises when she feels like it. "I wake up and I would be like 'I feel like doing yoga right now' so I'll do yoga," she said. "Or I'm feeling a bit anxious, so I feel like going for a run – rather than 'I should run, to lose weight, to look better, to be more fit'."

1. She Works As A Personal Trainer

When she’s not appearing on reality TV shows like Love Island, Celebrity Big Brother, and The Challenge, Allen works as a personal trainer.

Allen has gorgeous skin and hair, and she believes that a healthy diet and lifestyle is why she has them. She tells Women Fitness, “There have been times where my skin and hair haven’t been in the best condition and I believe it’s lifestyle and diet that cause and can fix that! When my hair was damaged from travelling I made a conscious effort to eat better: more fruit and veg and more iron. I’m lucky I’ve always had good skin but I preach that at least 2 liters of water a day will help to nourish your skin and hair. And I minimise dairy products and refined sugar. I also try and have as many red skinned fruits and veg in my diet as I believe it helps with healthy skin tone!”

Macky González shares a lot of gorgeous photos on Instagram. Recently, she took a trip to the Panama Canal. González shared a new set of photos from the trip on her account. In them, she went for a swim in a pool with a friend. González wore a black halter swimsuit, looking stunning. She captioned the post, “What a pod, a getaway to Panama. Incredible experience.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Macky González 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 Eats Healthy

González shares a lot of her wellness tips on Instagram. One thing she makes sure to do is eat a healthy diet. In the caption of this video, González shared some of her tips to eating better, and getting a better set of abs. “Stop eating so much junk. Small changes make big differences: Substitute soda for water. Fruit fries. Alcohol… Eliminate it or choose your battles better haha.”

2. She Does Ab Workouts

González has amazing abs. And she makes sure to do different ab and core workouts. In her previous Instagram video, González is seen doing crunches while hanging upside down from a punching bag. She captioned the post, “The best abs routine.” The Mayo Clinic states that ab exercises are important. “Strong core muscles make it easier to do many activities. When your core muscles are strong, it's easier to swing a golf club, get a glass from the top shelf and bend down to tie your shoes. Strong core muscles help athletes, such as runners. That's because weak core muscles can lead to more fatigue, less endurance and injuries.”

3. She Runs

González makes sure to do cardio exercises. In particular, she enjoys running to keep herself in shape. González posted this video on Instagram of herself going on a run. She captioned it, “They say that if you add just 1% of anything per day (skill, knowledge, effort) it will more than triple. But you have to start TODAY with that 1%. to give friends.”

4. She Hikes

González enjoys hiking as a way of keeping herself in shape. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself hiking in different places. In this photo, she is seen hiking on the rocks by the beach in Puerto Aysen. González captioned the post, “In Amazon mood.” Hiking has a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic states, “In addition to being a good form of exercise, walking through nature comes with other health benefits like lowering your blood pressure, improving sleep and reducing depression and anxiety.”

5. She Weight Trains

Another type of workout that González likes to do to stay in shape is weight training. She shared this photo of herself in the gym on Instagram. In it, González is seen lifting a weighted circle bar. She captioned the post, “Comeback is a good word 🦾Don't come back the way you left, come back different.”

Emily Elizabeth is heating up Hawaii – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the model and influencer shows off her amazing figure in a two-piece while on the beaches of the tropical paradise. “Hawaii >> 🌺🌈,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Simply Beautiful ❤️🏖❤,” commented one of her followers. “🔥😍perfect,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Hydration

Emily prioritizes hydration. Not only does she drink water, but also electrolyte enhanced fruit. “Fresh coconut,” she captioned a photo from Bora Bora. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

Coffee

Emily enjoys the perks of caffeine. Here she is drinking a cup of coffee. According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Snowboarding

While you can usually find Emily in the tropics, sometimes she heads over to the mountains for winter sports. In one of her photos she goes snowboarding. According to the University of Rochester, snowboarding, like skiing, is a great cardiovascular workout. “Because they are also weight-bearing exercises, they strengthen your bones as they tone your muscles,” they say. “Cardiovascular or aerobic exercises also work to reduce your risk for chronic diseases, and lower blood pressure. They also help you maintain a healthy body weight. Through regular aerobic exercise like skiing and snowboarding, you lower your risk of developing conditions like diabetes and heart disease, having a stroke, and perhaps even getting cancer.”

Snorkeling

While on vacation Emily throws on a mask and fin and goes snorkeling. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Walking

She also takes her dog for walks. Here she is strolling in Central Park with her pooch. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Emma McQuaid is prepping for her CrossFit competition – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the athlete flaunts her amazing figure in a two-piece exercise set while training. “8 weeks to my first Hyrox Sim 🏃♀️Looking forward to upping my run volume over the next 2 months to see how I can fair out before entering my first proper race later in the year. It’s no secret I don’t really enjoy running, I never have but I’m excited to see if I can turn that around this year,” she captioned the Instagram photos. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

She Is Consistent

If you want to improve your Olympics lifts, Emma suggests maintaining consistency. “Be consistent in your training, it’s vital you continually train all the lifts, not just the ones you like. I used to hate the full snatch and always power snatched everything. Recently though its become the opposite, I love full snatch and need to focus again on my power snatch. Always attack your weaknesses,” she told Boxrox.

Focus on Mobility

When it comes to improving gymnastic skills, Emma says to focus on mobility. “Sometimes is not just learning the skill, it’s having the mobility to be able to do it. I have struggled with handstand walks for over a year now and have practised more than people realise, but recently found out it’s my thoracic and shoulder mobility holding me back. So I have worked on my mobility and I’ve already seen improvements in my handstand walks. I’d also say people need to work the basics more, develop a strong foundation to build the high level movements on,” Emma told Boxrox.

Hydration

Drinking enough water and getting rest is an important component of health. “Eat healthy, drink plenty of water and sleep well is a good recipe for success,” she told Coach Web. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

Meal Prep

While Emma doesn’t meal prep, she has her food prepared for her. “All my food is supplied from a local company called Fuel Farm. I usually eat 4-5 times a day. Just depends what my training volume is like that day, I also live on Battle Oats bars between sessions, a great snack that keeps me going and doesn’t fill me up,” she says.

Balanced Diet

Emma maintains a balanced diet. “I personally think a lot of athletes in CrossFit under eat. Avoiding carbs or limiting them isn’t a good idea when you train at high intensity. I eat some junk everyday because I find it helps my performance, a 6 pack isn’t going to help me win so it doesn’t bother me, fuelling my body and maintaining the intensity in training is what will help me win. I’ve focused on timing my intake of sugar and it’s only made me better,” she told Boxrox.

Krissy Cela in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "8 Weeks of Lifting"

Krissy Cela is a fitness trainer on the Evolve You app and influencer. Recently, she has been documenting her process of losing pregnancy weight on Instagram. In a recent post, Cela revealed that she had been consistently weight training. She captioned it, “8 weeks of lifting, not depriving, recovering and sticking to an actual PLAN! Not doing random workouts. All my programs are on the @evolveyou app. I'm currently on the strong program and absolutely loving it! But there are home workouts too. Use code KRISSY for money off! (own brand).”

She Strength Trains

Cela strength trains to keep herself in shape. ACE Fitness says that this has a lot of benefits. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

She’s Consistent

Cela revealed in the caption of her Instagram post that she made sure to be consistent with her wellness. “So yeah… just keep lifting some heavy iron, don’t really listen to people who tell you not to unless you have an injury of some sort. Eat your fats, carbs and protein and get your steps in. Keep it simple and remember a cute gym set will make you lift heavier 😂Proud of myself because it really wasn’t easy showing up daily ngl.”

She Accepts Herself

Cela talked about her journey to accept herself in the caption of this Instagram post. “When I was growing up, all I ever wanted was to be pretty. I hated the way I looked and felt out of place, especially as the only girl in school with upper lip hair and a foreign background. I resented that my Albanian parents imposed cultural norms that limited what I could wear and how I could express myself. Now, in my 30s, I’ve learned to embrace my roots while also appreciating the many unique qualities I bring to the table that go beyond mere appearances. I didn’t realize how much being creative, strong, and loving would mean to me. I didn’t understand the true value of these qualities until now.”

She Works Her Lower Body

Cela shared some of her favorite lower body workouts in this Instagram post. She captioned it, “This mammaaa is putting in the work! Loving it so much moving my body and building my strength all over again 💅🏽All workout programs are from the @evolveyou app so if you’re stuck on where to start I really think you should just come and join the party and see what the fuss is all about. (Own brand). Workout: 1. KB RDL: 4 sets till failure 2. BB Reverse lunges: 4 sets 8 reps each leg 3. Hip work: need it my hips are tight: 4 sets each leg 8 reps (great to warm up also) 4. Static lunge: 4 sets 12 reps each leg 5. Also did hip thrust forgot to record 4 sets till failure.”

She Walks

Another thing that Cela does to keep herself in shape is go for walks. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself doing so. Cela shared this set of photos of herself hiking with her dog and partner. She captioned the post, “Postpartum walks! Taking it easy and feeling good! Ad/ Supported by @promix electrolytes in watermelon flavour 💅🏽Set from @oneractive launching 12th December.”
