“I've been doing a lot of Tracy Anderson now, and it's a lot of dancing cardio, and I love it. I'm obsessed with it. I have the best time, because the music is really loud and you don't really feel like you're working out. You feel like you're dancing and learning this cool dance move. So that's what I'm into now. Yeah. I might just put a DVD in my room and do all the—you know, look like a crazy woman!” she told E!.

2. This is What She Does for Her Diet

Alessandra-Ambrosio-1Alessandra Ambrosio/Instagram

As for what she eats: “It all depends on the day and if I am working on set or working from home. For breakfast, I usually have eggs and/or avocado toast. After my workout, I usually grab a green juice, followed by lunch, where I usually have a salad along with some chicken or fish. For dinner, I might go for sushi, or grill at home — some Brazilian BBQ. I also have some nuts or a protein bar in my bag all the time in case I get hungry while I am running around,” she told Bravo TV.

In the mornings, she’s "Off to Pilates class, where I meet a friend and get in some girl time. It's important to break a sweat every day, and I love the way Pilates makes me feel long and lean,: she has said, according to Glamour. One study “demonstrated that in active middle-aged men and women, exposure to Pilates exercise for 12 weeks, for two 60-minute sessions per week, was enough to promote statistically significant increases in abdominal endurance, hamstring flexibility, and upper-body muscular endurance.”

4. She Says “Put Your Mind to It”

“I worked out extra hard after having kids," she told E!, “but it’s always hard when you have to diet and work out. Just put your mind to it.” The Mayo Clinic recommends “getting at least 30 minutes of physical activity every day and even more exercise for further health benefits and weight loss….It also emphasizes moving more throughout the day, such as taking the stairs instead of an elevator.”

5. Here’s Advice She Got From Her Fellow Angels

Since we are all different, we have different routines, but we all make sure to keep hydrated and eat nutritious meals.” They do agreeon one thing: “Usually after the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, all of us girls get together and eat pizza. Our pizza parties have become a tradition,” she added.

1. She Works Out Her Core

According to the Cleveland Clinic: “If you’re planning to start an exercise program and wondering where to begin, start with your core first, says physical therapist Brittany Smith, DPT. People often think of the core muscles as being the abdominal muscles, but the core includes the muscles in the abdomen, back and hips, all working together as a group.” “The core muscles provide stability for the entire body as it moves,” says Smith. “These muscles are activated when you stand up, turn, bend, reach, twist, stoop and move in most other ways. Everything starts with your core.”

2. She Hits the Gym

Livia has been seen in YouTube videos at the gym. Good call. “Winded by grocery shopping or household chores? Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Exercise delivers oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lung health improve, you have more energy to tackle daily chores.”

3. She Uses Aloe Vera as a Skin Purifier

The 22nd Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards - ArrivalsDenise Truscello/Getty Images for The Latin Recording Academy

“Aloe is a cactus-like plant that grows in hot, dry climates. It is cultivated in subtropical regions around the world, including the southern border areas of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California,” says the NIH. “Clinical research suggests that topical application of an aloe-based gel twice daily (along with medical soap and tretinoin gel) may improve acne.”

4. She Works Out All Her Muscle Groups

'Medicos' TV Series PresentationMedios y Media/Getty Images

In her gym videos, Livia works out each muscle group individually. “Warm up with five to 10 minutes of stretching or brisk walking. Then choose a weight or resistance level heavy enough to tire your muscles after 12 to 15 repetitions,” says the Mayo Clinic. “With the proper weight, a single set of 12 to 15 repetitions can build muscle efficiently in most people and can be as effective as multiple sets of the same exercise.”

5. She Likes Lean Proten

Livia says salmon is a go-to protein, and egg whites. “Because our bodies can't produce omega-3 fatty acids by itself, it is an essential nutrient we need. Omega-3 fatty acids are a class of polyunsaturated fats, which are great for heart health, eye health, brain health, hormone production, immune function, and heart and lung support. A typical 3 oz. fillet of salmon will give you almost 2.2 grams (2198 milligrams) of omega-3 fatty acids. This gives you a sufficient amount of omega-3 fatty acids you need in a day because the recommended daily intake (RDI) is around 250 to 500 milligrams for an average person,” says our sister site Eat This, Not That!

1. This is Her Workout Before a Show

Before a Victoria’s Secret show, she works out “I would say an hour to an hour and a half a day. It all depends on what I'm doing that day. If I’m going on a hike or playing volleyball with my friends it might be longer but I don’t usually spend more than hour and a half in the gym,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. She added: “I usually focus on my glutes.”

2. She Has Done the Tracy Anderson Method

“I love to do different classes and lately I have been doing Tracy Anderson Method because it’s fun and it feels more like a dance class than a work-out. But, at the same time, it’s great exercise as it targets all muscle groups,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. The method also works for stars like Gwyneth Paltrow.

3. This is What She Has Said She Eats

“For breakfast I usually have eggs and/or avocado toast,” she said. “After my workout I usually grab a green juice followed by lunch, where I usually have a salad along with some chicken or fish. For dinner I might go for sushi, or grill Brazilian barbecue at home. I also have some nuts or a protein bar in my bag all the times in case I get hungry while I’m running around.”

4. She Has Taken Barre Classes

5. She Does Yoga

“Yoga offers physical and mental health benefits for people of all ages. And, if you’re going through an illness, recovering from surgery or living with a chronic condition, yoga can become an integral part of your treatment and potentially hasten healing,” says Johns Hopkins. “A yoga therapist can work with patients and put together individualized plans that work together with their medical and surgical therapies. That way, yoga can support the healing process and help the person experience symptoms with more centeredness and less distress.”

This is how you make a super rich sauce and the chicken is already It has another color. You can also add wine if you want," she explained in an Instagram Story, cooking one of her go-to meals. She pairs the chicken with a few boiled potatoes.

2. She Eats Healthy Fats

Anabel also makes sure to eat healthy fats. She is “obsessed” with eating the same breakfast every day: Orange juice, avocado toast, and a fried egg. She revealed her go-to breakfast in an Instagram Story.

3. She Has Gone Under the Knife

According to reports, Anabel has undergone liposuction twice, had a breast augmentation surgery and has a gastric band. She is also confident about her procedures. “Yes. I’ve had botox and a bit of acid on my lips. I think each person has to feel comfortable with themselves. And that’s why I think lines shouldn’t be crossed or insulted as it’s done. We’re going to end badly because you don’t know the degree of damage that can be done with certain comments. Then we talk about mental health and protecting ourselves,” she said in an Instagram Story.

4. She Works with Nutritionists

Anabel also relies on professional nutritionists to help with her diet. “Many of you ask me about my diets, training... I suppose you already know that I like to take care of myself, but this year I have help because I need it!” she wrote in a post, revealing that she follows a “personalized diet.”

5. She Does Tabata Workouts

Anabel also works out. She does a form of high-intensity interval training known as tabata, which involves doing a specific exercise for a set amount of time. “Do you know what TABATA is?” she asks in a post, demonstrating her workout. “Tabata training breaks a workout down into clearly defined intervals – typically, 20 seconds of a push-it-to-the-limit exercise followed by 10 seconds of rest,” explains the Cleveland Clinic. The results? Your heart rate will rise quickly and you will burn calories fast.

6. She Soaks in the Hot Tub

After working out, Anabel enjoys a relaxing soak in the hot tub. Soaking in hot water has been linked to better sleep and decreased anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that baths, which are similar to hot tubs, may even boast cardiovascular benefits.

1. She Drinks Green Juices

A smoothie made with kale or spinach can be full of belly-filling nutrients. When researchers at Columbia University crunched the numbers on six separate studies following dieters on either a smoothie-based plan (one or two smoothies a day) or a reduced-calorie plan, they found that both sets lost weight, but those on the smoothie-based plan experienced “significantly greater weight loss” at both the 3-month and 1-year marks. Just as important, after a year on the various plans, those who used the smoothie option had a significantly lower dropout rate.

2. She Works Her Core

The Global Awards 2018 - Arrivals - LondonIsabel Infantes/Getty Images

Clancy works her core hard. To work your core, try a Side Plank: 30 seconds each side. Lie on your left side resting your left forearm on the floor for support. Raise your hips up so your body forms a straight line and brace your abs—your weight should be on your left forearm and the edge of your left foot. Hold this position for 30 seconds, then lower your body and repeat on the right side. Focus on not only pressing up with the side of our obliques that are closest to the floor, but also draw your navel into your spine. If 30 seconds is too long, go until exhaustion and then switch sides; you will be able to increase your time with each workout as you get stronger at these.

3. She Does Pilates

The Cleveland Clinic spoke with lead yoga therapist Judi Bar who says: “Everything’s attached." “Pilates focuses more on muscle tone than building muscles and it specifically focuses on your core. While most people might consider just your abdomen to be the core of your body, Bar points out, it extends well beyond that,” says the Clinic. "With the core, besides the stomach area, you’re also talking about your sides, your back and your hips. What happens in your core affects the rest of your body.”

4. She Works Out to Get a Charge

"I like to workout when I feel tired or sluggish because it's not a weight maintenance thing as I'm lucky genetically,” she once told Radio One. There is science behind this. “Winded by grocery shopping or household chores? Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Exercise delivers oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lung health improve, you have more energy to tackle daily chores.”

5. She Believes in Moderation

“I generally eat what I want to in moderation,” she has said. Consider moderating foods that your body tells you it doesn't want. “Many people experience bloating from dairy, and find that their stomachs become leaner after cutting down on the stuff,” says personal trainer Mark Langowski, in his book Eat This, Not That! For Abs. “While yogurt tends to be low in lactose, the natural sugar that causes bloating, milk and other non-fermented dairy products have higher levels. So consider eating dairy in moderation, focusing on the full-fat varieties.”

Bianca Bustamante is revving up her engine in 2025 – in her workout gear. In a new social media post, the racecar driver reveals she is taking “the next major step” in her physical journey as a race driver “and I’ve set the target high!” she says in a new Instagram post, filled with video clips of herself lifting heavy weights at the gym. “Never been more motivated in my life, it’s not physically easy for a girl in this sport, but I’m super excited to take on this new challenge and the next big step on my racing journey,” she added. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here are her top lifestyle tips.

Lifting Weights

Bianca spends hours at the gym where she focuses on strength training along with endurance, cardio, reaction time, and reflexes. “You know, to be a driver, it’s a complete package. It takes strength. It takes mental fortitude. It takes reflexes, smart thinking, and survival skills,” she told MEGA Active. “Sometimes it's for the body, sometimes it's for the mind. Nothing more peaceful than early sessions,” she captioned an Instagram post of one of her sessions.

Double Down On Training

In her recent post, Bianca reveals that she working extra hard at the gym. “I’ve been working hard over the years to build a solid foundation, but in 2025, I’ll be working with @j_w_90 and I’m doubling down on my training. Increasing to two workouts a day not just on lifts but aerobic endurance, as well as a better focus on nutrition and rest, in order to raise the bar to compete in the higher formulas,” she said.

Fueling Your Body With Protein

Bianca makes sure to eat enough protein in order to build more muscle and stay as lean as possible to meet the weight requirement. “It’s been a really cool journey seeing my body develop and transform into this whole different person I never knew I could become,” she said. In her new post she added that she is meal prepping. “I’m soooo all in that im even learning how to cook & meal prep better than ever before,” she writes.

Taking Cold Plunges

As for recovery, cold plunging is part of Bianca’s training regime. Limited research supports the benefits of cold plunges, which may include easing sore muscles, bringing body temperature down, increasing focus, improving sleep, and decreasing inflammation, per the Cleveland Clinic. However, a 2021 study found that cold water immersion therapy promotes post-sport recovery.

Working On Self-Esteem

Positive self-talk is also important. “Of course, I put a lot of pressure on myself, but in the end, I always tell myself that as long as I give my best and I learn from it, any mistake I make is valid,” Bianca explained. “I always try to repeat that to myself that I am valid. I’m here for a reason and there’s nothing I would rather do than be here.”

Brenda Perlaza is flaunting her fantastic figure in a tiny bikini. In a new social media post the influencer, who calls herself La Barbie Negra, looks flawless as she poses on the beach in a neon yellow swimsuit. “#viral,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Wow Wow,” one of her followers commented, while several others added fire emojis. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Jogging

Brenda enjoys jogging. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.

Walking Her Dog

She also takes her dog on long walks. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, 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 reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Dancing

You can also find Brenda dancing to burn calories. Dancing is an excellent workout for many reasons. It builds strength and promotes flexibility, helps you lose weight, and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop or die from heart disease than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues

Swimming

Brenda spends a lot of time in her swimsuit so it isn’t surprising she loves to swim. According to the CDC, swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, multiple studies support the mental health benefits of swimming.

Hydration

Finally, Brenda hydrates, especially after a long workout or sun exposure. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is essential for various reasons. Water helps eliminate waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature regular, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

But that amount varies depending on your weight, speed and stroke.”

She's Vegan

Romani is open about following a vegan diet. She shares a lot of posts on her Instagram story highlights of herself enjoying vegan foods. The American College of Lifestyle Medicine states that being vegan has a lot of health benefits. “Overall, nutrition from plant-based diets is typically of higher quality than omnivorous diets, as assessed by the Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI).28 A whole food plant-based (WFPB) diet is one made up of predominantly unprocessed fruits, vegetables, whole grains legumes, nuts and seeds, and excludes animal foods, with certain selective supplementation of vitamins B12. Sometimes D. Intentionally planned, WFPB diets provide sufficient nutrient intakes for all stages of life and can be therapeutic for chronic disease and overall health and healing.29 The plant-based dietary pattern protects against overconsumption of nutrients that lead to obesity and disease,30 particularly animal protein, saturated fat,31 trans-fats, cholesterol simple sugars,32 and sodium.33, 34”

Romani makes sure to work out on a regular basis. She shares a lot of Instagram stories in her highlights of herself at the gym. The Mayo Clinic says that regular exercise is extremely important. “Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help you keep off lost weight. When you take part in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn. Regular trips to the gym are great, but don't worry if you can't find a large chunk of time to exercise every day. Any amount of activity is better than none. To gain the benefits of exercise, just get more active throughout your day. For example, take the

She Supports Animals

Romani has her own charity, Help Miami Cats. She talked about how she started this in the caption of this Instagram post. “❤️ Guys!!!! I have always loved cats and had many growing up. When I moved to Miami Beach I met a great calico named Chacha and learnt that cats were brought to the city by Mayor Lummus … against rodents. Cats rely on volunteers for their food and water and there’s a huge amount of them. There’s a city program to Spay and neuter with the wonderful @sobecats ladies and the feeding is made official by a City Sanctioned badge, yet new cats keep getting dumped daily sadly and there’s a never ending amount of work, emergencies and so on. I was on a feeding rotation but during the pandemic I was left alone caring for so many as people left town or couldn’t afford feeding anymore …I decided to start my own non profit @helpmiamicats . We feed close to 200 and when Batman got paralyzed took him and other special needs cats under my care … @stevensachs69 with the cat room and the amazing people involved devote their lives to these special souls … My life has changed a lot too … way less spare time, way more sweat and tears and lost the person I had by my side who had sadly other priorities … yet gained so much love from these lovely creatures !!! If you can please get involved in any way … follow @helpmiamicats , share, volunteer, adopt … donate … Only together we can make their world a better place !!! And yes … just me feeding the kitties and talking to them … 🤷🏻♀️👀😆❤️🙌”
