Kelly Clarkson was the series’ first ever winner. She tells People that she feels beautiful when she receives compliments, and she wants to give them to others. “I really do think that, yes, it’s nice to look beautiful and it’s nice to get dolled up,” she said. “But, it’s a different kind of thing when you get a smile from someone because you’ve done something that’s touched them. And I think that my mom complimented me in the best way growing up that wasn’t about aesthetics. It was about what’s happening inside and your character.”
2. Katy Perry

Katy Perry is one of the judges on the series’ revival. She talked about some of her skincare secrets with The Wall Street Journal. "I have my certain potions and lotions, for sure, but I actually love Kora Organics, which is a line that Orlando’s ex-wife, Miranda made. She has this turmeric moisturizer that I swear by," Perry shares. "I just incorporated it into my life in the past year...once I find products they’re staples for decades. I use that a lot, but [Orlando and I] like to do steaming, sauna, cold plunges. We really like to wake up the self. We really like to take care of our telomeres, you know what I’m saying?"
3. Luke Bryan

Luke Bryan is a judge on the series’ revival. He tells Men’s Journal that he loves to bike ride, and does a lot of long rides. “I've been doing some pretty long rides recently, going out around the house and doing 40 or 50 miles. A few of the guys I know who watch my numbers and stats came to me and said I was ready for the 100 miles. I wasn’t so sure, but I couldn’t turn it down. I also have a Trek Madone perfectly fit for me, which makes the miles easy.”
4. Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood won the show’s fourth season. She works with trainer, Eve Overland, to help her stay in shape. Overland shared some of Underwood’s workouts with E! News. "Each workout incorporates both upper-body as well as lower-body exercises. Most commonly, we will work with opposing muscle groups. Day one could be upper-body push exercises, like chest presses and triceps extensions, and lower-body pull exercises, like hamstring curls and deadlifts. Day two could be upper-body pull, like lat pull-downs and biceps curls, and lower-body push, like squats and lunges."
5. Ryan Seacrest

Ryan Seacrest has been the host of the show since the beginning. He opened up about his health and wellness secrets with People. "I'm like con-vegan, I call it conveniently vegan," he says of his diet. "So I do cheat and eat things every once a while, but I try and mostly stay plant-based and fish-based occasionally."
6. Kellie Pickler
Shutterstock
Kellie Pickler first competed on season 5 of the show. She shared her skincare secrets with HollywoodLife. “When I’m getting ready for a big event and want a bit of that golden glow without exposing my skin to the sun, I use Tone Fruit Peels body wash to get my skin smooth before I apply a self-tanning lotion.”
7. Jennifer Hudson
Shutterstock
Jennifer Hudson was a contestant on the third season of the show. She talked about her self-care secrets with Allure. “I make a point to find time to exercise. I've been finding that healing and centering. I love bike riding. It feels [good] to be able to enjoy the fruits of my labor, to be able to sit on the porch, listen to the birds, watch the kids play. I appreciate it.”
8. Katharine McPhee

Katharine McPhee was the runner-up of the show’s fifth season. In an interview with E! News, McPhee talked about her struggles with an eating disorder, and how having a baby made her more confident in her body. “What I didn't expect was to have the baby and then be so at peace with my body," she said. "I had this, wow, like this huge appreciation of what my body had just done and given me that I wish that I'd given myself a little bit more of that grace through the pregnancy." 
9. Lauren Alaina

Lauren Alaina was the runner-up of season ten. She talked about how her wellness routine has changed to The Tennessean. “My low speed is what my high speed used to be,” she said. “I went from not working out at all to working out six days a week. The most rewarding thing, it’s not looking in the mirror because that’s hard for me. The most rewarding part is that I have people asking me to help them.”
10. Randy Jackson

Randy Jackson is one of the show’s original judges. He notably lost a lot of weight, and is the founder of Unify Health Labs. “I was able to talk with top health experts: physicians, nutritionists, fitness experts, biologists, and more,” he wrote in a blog post on the website. “They helped me a lot on my journey. And I wanted to share this expertise and information with as many people as possible.”
11. David Archuleta

David Archuleta was the runner-up of the show’s seventh season. He is open about his mental health, and came out as a member of the LGBTQ community. Archuleta talked about his journey with Wondermind. “Therapy helped me so much to get to a place where I understood myself. Before that, I looked at myself through the lens of what my parents raised me on or as someone who was on American Idol when I was 16 years old. I looked at myself through the lens of the public, and I used that to define me. And I grew up as a Latter-day Saint, aka the Mormons, and I used that lens to see myself and identify myself. While all those parts are a big part of what makes me who I am now and gives me my unique perspective on life, it was limiting.”
12. Haley Reinhart
Shutterstock
Haley Reinhart appeared on the show’s tenth season. She talked about what she wants people to take away from her music to Forbes. “I feel like I have several callings and one of them is to be a light warrior for whoever I can reach. There's a lot of people out there who are told even to feel sadder than they have to be. Like s**t's bad enough. So I'm trying to overcome what I'm dealing with, spread love and peace however cliche it sounds. That is the bottom line message for everything that I've put out. So I'd rather focus on that; help people reach their higher selves, their higher consciousness, and just focus on that especially at the shows. When we're together, I feel that energy bouncing back and forth. It depends what kind of energy you want to put out there, but I'd rather be uplifting powerfully.”
13. Scotty McCreery

After having his first child, season ten winner, Scotty McCreery has learned to say “no” to things. “The power of saying ‘no’ to some things is becoming a big thing for me,” he told UsWeekly. “Realizing, ‘Hey man, you’re a father now.’ I wanna be there for my kid and we’re still busy, I’m still working my tail off, but we’re not saying ‘yes’ to everything like I used to always do. I gotta have time with my kid, I gotta have time with my family. So, that has changed a lot.”
14. Lionel Richie
Shutterstock
Lionel Richie is a judge on the revival series. He shared the best lessons he’s learned to Forbes. “The one I learned from most is get used to hearing no, but don't let that stop you. Half of the success stories, even in the tech world today, were people who dropped out of mainstream schools and followed their own desire to create something different. Like Steve Jobs and the Zuckerberg’s of the world. Of course, after they formed their company, they brought in great like-minds to help them formulate and put it together. But they didn't let anyone talk them out of what the dream was. They heard no and still had that stick-to-it-ness.”
15. Fantasia Barrino
Shutterstock
Fantasia Barrino won the third season of the show. She talked about her desire to stay healthy in an interview. “I wanted to be the person in my family to stand up and say, ‘okay we have to eat better and workout.’ I want to be around for a long time. I can’t travel like I do and not be healthy. You know how I move on stage. At any minute I could just pass out and that’s not good.”
16. Chris Daughtry

Chris Daughtry appeared on the show’s fifth season, finishing in fourth place. He talked about his diet to Muscle and Fitness. “I have to change my eating habits,” he said. “I have to change the way I look at food. I have to change my lifestyle and not make it a ‘diet.’ And so I started trying to dial it in and then, this last year, I got really serious about it.”
17. Jennifer Lopez
Shutterstock
Jennifer Lopez appeared as a judge on six seasons of the show. Lopez is an amazing dancer, and this makes up a lot of her fitness routine. She tells HELLO! Magazine, "I am 100 percent convinced that working out is part of what makes me so happy. Dance has always been a huge part of my life and taking the time to move my body and do something that's so good for me is key to my happiness."  
18. Jordin Sparks
Shutterstock
Jordin Sparks won season six of the show, being the youngest person to do so. She talked about her diet in an interview with People. “I wanted to try eating smaller meals throughout the day instead of three big meals,” she says. “I like it a lot better and I don’t feel like I’m starving at any time. Just ‘grazing’ and fueling my body.”
19. Harry Connick Jr.
Shutterstock
Harry Connick Jr. appeared as a judge on the last four seasons of the original series, and is currently a judge on Australian Idol. In an interview with The Telegraph, he revealed that he and his wife, model Jill Goodacre, like to go on walks. “Jill loves to walk, so we take our two dogs to Irwin Park, not far from our house. Lucy, our shih-tzu, is 12, and Tuka, a rescued mixed breed, is two. Tuka basically looks like Toto from The Wizard of Oz.”
20. Keith Urban
Shutterstock
Keith Urban was a judge on the last five seasons of the original series. He opened up about his Vegas residency to USA Today. “Playing with the audience instead of playing at the audience is how I like to do what I do. I love the audience being engaged right out of the gate. In Vegas especially, you get a lot of different kinds of people, lots of fans and a handful of curious people who might know me from one song or from "(American) Idol” and they come to see what this guy is about. I’m not that kind of sit-there-and-watch-this performer. I love to be like, ‘We’re here, let’s go!’ I’m on my feet, you’re on your feet.”

TV game show stars not only captivate audiences with their charisma and wit but also inspire with their remarkable dedication to health and wellness. From Price Is Right's Alexis Gaube, an advocate for social justice, to Survivor's Jeff Probst, who unveils his skincare secret, these personalities showcase stunning transformations and resilient mindsets. Drew Carey's motivation for fitness, Vanna White's timeless grace, Tyra Banks' body positivity journey—each narrative reflects unique paths to excellence. This compilation delves into the awe-inspiring physical and mental journeys of 15 game show icons, celebrating their diverse approaches to maintaining amazing bodies that mirror their vibrant careers.
1. Alexis Gaube
Gabriel Olsen/Getty Images
Price Is Right model, Alexis Gaube, isn’t afraid to speak out. In 2021, she spoke out on Instagram supporting the Asian community after the shooting. She captioned the post, “I’ve been struggling, trying to come up with any kind of words to properly describe how I’ve felt lately regarding the frightening uptick of violence against the AAPI community, especially after the hate fueled racist attack that transpired Tuesday 💔 My heart pours out for the AAPI community. I stand with you and I support you. We cannot continue to let hateful rhetoric be louder than the voices of those who are being hurt/attacked. Its more than a square on a screen.... It’s education, listening, using your voice to speak up and speak out, supporting local businesses, volunteering, donating, reporting, petitions. Because we aren’t safe,until we are all safe.”2. Drew Carey

The Price Is Right host, Drew Carey, shared his reasons for getting healthy with Success.com. “My kid made the difference,” Carey says. “I wanted to stay alive long enough to see him graduate from high school, and I was doing some math in my head, and I thought, ‘If I don’t stop what I’m doing, I’m not going to live long enough for that’.”3. Vanna White

Vanna White has been a presenter on Wheel Of Fortune for years. She’s managed to look amazing all this time. White opened up about her secrets in an interview with Yahoo Life. "I do the best I can. I eat pretty good. I exercise. I just try to stay healthy, and be the best I can at my age."
4. Jane Lynch

The Weakest Link host, Jane Lynch, talked about her fitness journey in an interview with Parade. “I don’t like to work out. I keep joining and quitting the same gym. And I’m in the join mode now. But I know how important it is, especially when on the verge of 60, to keep your muscles strong. As I get older, I hope that a wave of grace washes over me that makes me really want to go to the gym in the morning and lift weights. I live up in the canyon though and take about 25 stairs to get to the house, 15 to my bedroom, and my office is in the guesthouse, which is about another 30. So I am walking all the time!”5. Brooke Burns

The Chase host, Brooke Burns, likes to run to keep herself in shape.  “I love getting outside in the morning,” she says to Women’s Running. “It helps me start my day with a really healthy outlook and with a great endorphin rush. Selfishly, I love getting up and getting it done. I grew up in a fit family, and my parents set a really great example for me. I never thought, ‘Oh, I have to go work out.’ It was more of a lifestyle.”6. Julie Chen

In an interview, Big Brother host Julie Chen talked about her fitness regime. “I work out six days a week. Three days a week, I work with my trainer doing crossfit, two days a week doing yoga, and one day a week Pilates. Sundays are my days off most of the time. Otherwise, it’s treadmill. Or maybe some weights.”
7. Tyra Banks

Tyra Banks has hosted America’s Next Top Model, America’s Got Talent, and Dancing With The Stars. In an interview with People, she talked about her process of losing weight. "I used to feel like my body was not mine," Banks said. "I've been too thin or too big. And I used to feel like I was betraying people if I lost weight. Now I'm a different body type. But I don't feel like I'm betraying people. I've still got a--, I've still got boobs!"
8. Julianne Hough

Julianne Hough is returning to Dancing With The Stars as a host in the new season. She shared some of her wellness tips in an interview with Us Weekly. “Mindset is first! Healthy brain equals a healthy body. Staying focused on your personal journey and creating a happy environment makes for a healthier lifestyle.”

She talked about some of her diet secrets in an interview with HollywoodLife. “We need fat, it’s all the things that we were trained not to do that really feed our brain and our skin, our hair. I do eat a lot of fat but I am pretty conscious of what I eat, I don’t eat processed food really at all. I intermittent fast faithfully but I’m not like 16 hours strict, it really depends, but I start with the coffee and then after I finish my workout I usually have a really good shake that is full of everything I need from almond milk to good collagen protein, it will probably have some MCT oil in there, some dates, some macca energy, pretty much all the good stuff and that sustains me for a while. So I’ll do that nearly every day.”

Meredith Vieira has hosted a lot of things, including Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. When she guest-hosted The Today Show, she opened up about her past insecurities with her body. “I had a big butt—but all of me [was big], I was a chubby girl," says Vieira. “I had this bike and I was rounding the curve, and this was one of my good friends sitting on the curb with a little boy, so we had to be, like, 8, maybe, and she referred to my rear end. To this day, it sticks in my head.”

It doesn't just make me look better, but it makes me emotionally feel better."

Survivor host Jeff Probst revealed his secrets for staying youthful to GQ. “I don't have a grooming secret. Once or twice a year I will do some sort of face laser, which is not as severe as it sounds. One of them is called Fraxel, a wand that they just sort of run over your face. It t leaves you red for about three days. But it brings all of the sun damage to the surface. And by the seventh day, it all flakes off, and it's like you have a brand new face. Here’s the thing: I've been shooting Survivor for 20 years and my skin looks better than it ever has. You can reverse the damage.”15. Phil Keoghan

The Amazing Race and Tough As Nails host, Phil Keoghan, opened up about his life and career on theSwitch For Good podcast. He revealed that he decided to cut out and limit dairy. “I'm not gonna say that I'm 100% dairy free, because occasionally I accidentally eat something, but I have no problem at all now not having dairy. And I will even ask now, ‘oh, does that have dairy?’ I would say overall, my energy level is up I do, I just feel better for it.”

Sela Ward's poolside laps, Zeeko Zaki's protein-powered transformation, Vedette Lim's desert hikes, and Ebonee Noel's technical dialogue mastery all contribute to their on-screen personas. Even Connie Nielsen's thoughtfully curated diet reflects her commitment to holistic well-being. Join us in exploring the inspiring physical journeys of these "FBI" stars.
1. Missy Peregrym

FBI isn’t the first action role Missy Peregrym had. She previously starred in the cop drama Rookie Blue and in the gymnastics film Stick It. According to an interview in People, these choices are intentional. "I like roles where I get to do stunts and be athletic, so I'm playing the vulnerability every woman has and also the ability to handle crazy situations.”2. Alana de la Garza

Alana de la Garza talked about what she likes about starring in FBIin an interview. “There is something really relaxing about that creative process when you trust the people you work with and you’re able to perform. If you’re able to take words off a page and, luckily, the words that are on our pages are just incredible. The storytellers that we have that are writing these scripts are so good that you can trust that and you’re able to feel creatively complete by trusting the other characters on the show who are also your friends. There is something relaxing about that.”
3. Sela Ward

Sela Ward loves to swim to stay in shape. She shared this photo on Facebook of herself in the pool after doing laps. She captioned the photo, “Got my laps in for the day! Can someone hand me a towel, please?”
4. Zeeko Zaki

Zeeko Zaki talked about his weight loss in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. "The craziest part was just being kind of a different person every year. You get like 10 lbs. a year, I wanted to do it slow," Zaki explained. "But my biggest tip and the thing that I walked away from was a little trick I learned from The 4-Hour Body by Timothy Ferriss — 30 grams of protein within 30 minutes of waking up. So give it a shot."
5. Vedette Lim

Vedette Lim spends a lot of time outside. Naturally, she likes to do outdoor workouts to keep herself in shape. Lim posted this photo on Instagram of herself going on a hike in the deserts of Arizona. She captioned it, “A visit to my birth state.”
6. Ebonee Noel

Ebonee Noel has worked with Dick Wolf in both FBI and Law & Order SVU. She talked about her process with playing her roles in an interview with One Chicago. “I tried to make the technical dialogue be as interesting as possible when delivering it, because I know some of the stuff, I got the script and it’s like what am I talking about here? If I don’t know what I’m talking about, the audience is going to have no idea what I’m talking about. So it’s just fleshing out that jargon and trying to find her joy in figuring these things out.”
7. Connie Nielsen

In a 2014 interview with Parade, Connie Nielsen talked about her diet. “For breakfast, I eat organic food with high fat content, such as whole milk yogurt, nuts, seeds, fresh fruit and a scrambled egg. I cook it in organic grape seed oil for its high omega content. I drink a cappuccino for its dose of milk and the coffee for its taste, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. At lunch, I might eat smoked salmon with a slice of Mozzarella di Bufala, made from the milk of domestic water buffalo, along with avocado.”

2. John Legend

John Legend is from Springfield, Ohio. He shared some of his wellness secrets with NBC’s Make It. “I usually have eggs and a salad and maybe a piece of like whole grain toast…I have a salad with every meal. Run or walk or do something to keep your blood flowing and get you energized for the day.”

4. Gabrielle Union

Actress Gabrielle Union is originally from Omaha, Nebraska. She shared this video on Instagram of herself working out in the gym. In it, Union is seen running on a treadmill, doing push-ups with a resistance band, and doing sit-ups on an exercise ball. She captioned the post, “Drop the fitness routine? Say less 💪🏾 These were the workouts leading up to Milan. I train with @greggyhustle @quinnfischman @heartandhustlegym in LA and we collaborated with @fitonapp so y’all can see our full workouts and train with us for FREEEEEEEEE! Check us out. Meanwhile @beyonce got me in a chokehold 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾. PS My weight fluctuates due to my peri menopause and my hormones etc so it was suggested I give up gluten, dairy, alcohol and caffeine to help regulate my hormones and lessen the memory fog, moodiness, insomnia, hair loss, bloating and all the other fun 😵‍💫side effects. I stuck to the no gluten and dairy cuz I’m ya know, human. I reserve the right to fluxate.”
5. Halle Berry

Halle Berry is originally from Cleveland, Ohio. She works with trainer Peter Lee Thomas to help her stay healthy. Thomas shared to HollywoodLife that Berry is on the ketogenic diet and eats foods to manage her diabetes. “She really likes lamb, so she’ll often have a lamb chop or her chef will make her a really nice ketogenic stew, that will have a lot of cauliflower and broccoli and other vegetables that are filling and some sort of lean grass fed protein in it. Another dinner she often has is ketogenic chill, which is made from a lot of veggies and ground grass fed beef. Her chef will leave out the beans because beans have a lot of carbohydrates, they have fiber, but they have a lot of carbs and in order to regulate her insulin because of her diabetes, Halle does keep her diet very low carbohydrate. It’s an amazing way to stay in great shape because she totally stops craving those things.”
6. Katie Holmes

Katie Holmes is originally from Toledo, Ohio. She broke down her workout secrets in a cover story for Shape. "I exercise four times a week,” she says. “Variety is key, or I get bored.

I got into boxing a couple of years ago, and now I take classes at Rumble. They play great music, and it's so fun. It targets your upper body, which is good because I can forget to do that."
7. Mark Ruffalo

Mark Ruffalo is originally from Kenosha, Wisconsin. In an interview with Collider, Ruffalo talked about his approach as a producer. “My style, as a producer, is really to be in radical collaboration with people. The more I do it now, the more powerful I see that can be. You’re curating and pulling together the pieces, and you’re using your taste to create a framework, in the material and in the talent. But ultimately, what I’ve learned is that what works best for this high mentality is that you bring together this team, and then you create a space for them to be the best version of themselves.
8. Kristen Bell

Kristen Bell was born and raised in Michigan. She shared her approach and motivations behind working out to Shape Magazine. “It's important to me to show my children that I care about my health and fitness enough to stay committed," she said. "So when I'm in their room with them, I'll do some squats. When they ask what I'm doing, I'll say I'm getting my physical fitness in. And because they copy everything I do, the next time they pick up a heavy bag they'll say, ‘I'm getting my workout in.'"

12. January Jones

Actress January Jones grew up in South Dakota. She revealed in an interview with Shape that she likes to take Lagree Pilates classes. “There are 10 of us in the class, and I like having women on both sides of me to push me. When I did the private Pilates lessons a couple of years ago, I just saw myself getting lazy with it because there wasn’t that drive for competition. For me, that’s what’s motivating. If there’s someone strong next to me, I definitely want to up my game. I find myself looking forward to it more than I’ve ever looked forward to a workout.”

It takes me back to a time in my youth when I was thriving. So that’s why I love it.”

"After a long weekend of play dates and sporting events and kid birthday parties, I can't tell you how much I crave my Monday morning yoga class," admits Fischer.  "As we get started with stretching, the first 20 minutes of every class is usually me fighting my brain to relax, to stop making to-do lists, and to stop making notes on my mental calendar. The more poses we do, the more my brain gets quiet."

"There are days where I really struggle with gaining a couple pounds or my jeans' fitting too tight. But I try to keep in mind the best thing I've learned: When you stop fighting it, when you stop trying to control it, your body will just be what it needs to be. It will find a balance.

Dani Elle Speegle isn’t just strong—she’s unstoppable. The elite CrossFit athlete and social media sensation has built a massive following by sharing her intense training sessions and inspiring fitness moments. Recently, she posted a series of weightlifting photos on Instagram, proving once again why she’s a powerhouse in the gym.
“Just a girl and her barbell,” she captioned the post, letting her strength do the talking. From lifting heavy to outdoor adventures, here’s how Speegle stays in peak condition.

            
                She Lifts Weights

In her Instagram post, Speegle is seen lifting weights. According to ACE Fitness, doing this has a lot of benefits. “Using heavy weights increases intramuscular coordination, the number of type II motor units and the amount of muscle fibers engaged within a specific muscle. Have you ever felt your muscles shaking while lifting heavy weights? This is because you are recruiting and activating the larger type II muscle fibers, which are only stimulated to work when a muscle is challenged with heavy resistance or working to fatigue.”

            
                She Golfs

Speegle likes to golf to keep herself in shape. She shared a video of herself on the course in this Instagram post. According to Randa aerobic exercise. “Golf can help strength and balance, improve quality of life and provide aerobic exercise. On a regular 18-hole course, most players will walk between four and five miles, burning up to 2,000 calories.”

            
                She's Into Jumping Rope

Speegle shared this video on Instagram of herself competing in Crossfit events. In it, she is seen jumping rope. According to The Cleveland Clinic, jumping rope has a lot of benefits. “Benefits of jump rope can help improve your coordination, get your heart rate going and help burn calories — and it’s an easy, affordable way to get some cardio in.”

            
                She Hikes

Speegle likes to hike to keep herself in shape. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself hiking the Koko Head Summit. Speegle captioned the post, “Woke up and chose pain today. Every 45 min X 3 rounds: Koko head 💀💀💀 Then sat in my car and stared into the abyss while munching on Banan 🥲🥲🥲”

            
                She Does Cold Plunges

Speegle makes sure to recover. One thing she likes to do is cold plunges. Speegle shared this video of herself jumping into a tub. According to The Mayo Clinic, these have a lot of benefits. “Research on cold-water immersion has found evidence that it helps reduce the degree of exercise-induced muscle damage that can occur after physically challenging activities. Less damage leads to less inflammation, which in turn reduces soreness and helps restore physical performance the next day. These benefits may be the result of rapid constriction of the blood vessels due to the cold water. The cold can trigger responses in your body, such as decreased metabolic activity, alterations in hormone production and blood flow, and activation of the immune system.”

        Golfer Tvesa Malik in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Awesome" Exercises
    Discover how Tvesa Malik, SuperSport Ladies Championship winner, stays in peak shape with weightlifting, core work, and golf.

Tvesa Malik isn’t just a pro golfer—she’s a powerhouse athlete dedicated to staying in peak shape. The SuperSport Ladies Championship winner knows that strength and endurance are just as important as skill on the course. That’s why she takes her fitness seriously, incorporating weightlifting, core work, and mobility exercises into her training.
Last year, Malik gave fans a look at her workout routine in an Instagram video, where she powered through hanging crunches, lunges, and weightlifting sessions. She captioned the post, “Got some major work to do before my next session,” proving that even elite athletes are always striving to improve. Here’s a closer look at how Malik keeps her body strong and ready for competition.

            
                She Lifts Weights
            
            
        
See on Instagram
Malik is seen doing a lot of weight lifting in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness says that this has a lot of benefits. “Lifting heavy weights elevates levels of anabolic hormones—specifically testosterone, growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1)—which are used to repair muscle fibers damaged during exercise. This helps the muscle fibers to become thicker and capable of generating higher levels of force.”

            
                She Does Lunges
            
            
        
See on Instagram
Malik is seen shifting into lunges in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness says that lunges are a form of unilateral training, and that makes them effective. “Unilateral training is a more effective way to build functional strength (than using both legs) because these types of movement mimic other everyday motions, like walking and climbing stairs — and not just to the working leg. Research suggests the strength gains to the nonworking side are about half of the strength gains of the working side.”

            
                She Does Core Workouts
            
            
        
See on Instagram
Malik is seen doing core workouts, like hanging crunches in her Instagram video. Core workouts are extremely important. The Mayo Clinic says, “While it takes aerobic activity to burn fat in your stomach, core exercises can strengthen and tone the underlying muscles. 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.”

An upper body workout that Malik likes to do is pull-ups. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing them at the gym. Malik captioned it, “Got some major work to do before my next session.” Asphalt Green says that pull-ups have a lot of benefits. “Pull-ups are a fantastic way to improve upper-body strength. This exercise primarily targets your back and biceps, but involves many stabilizing muscles in your core, arms, and shoulders. Depending on the way you grip the bar, you can even work your chest. Plus, you don’t need any fancy equipment to do a pull-up. Tree branches, scaffolding, and even door frames are all places people can do pull-ups.”

Golf is obviously one of the ways that Malik keeps herself in shape. Better Health says that the sport has a lot of benefits. “Golf can be good for your health and your heart. Walking an average course for a round of golf can be between five to seven kilometres. If you walk 18 holes three to five times a week, you’ll get an optimal amount of endurance exercise for your heart. If you pull your clubs or carry them, you’ll burn even more calories each round and benefit even more.”

In her Instagram post, Guper is seen using the stairclimber. Stair workouts have a lot of health benefits. ACE Fitness says, “Improving metabolic health in terms of lower risks of heart problems and other complications, also by definition improves fitness. You can feel your heart working harder and the fire in your lungs when you ascend stairs. And that’s provoking important changes in your cardiorespiratory system that will make physical activities, like running and walking, feel easier.”

Guper shared some of her favorite lower body workouts in this Instagram video. One thing she is seen doing is lunges. According to The Mayo Clinic, lunges have a lot of benefits. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles.”

In the previous Instagram video, Guper is seen using the leg extension machine. Asphalt Green says that leg extensions have a lot of benefits. “These machines provide isolation exercises for your legs. This type of exercise works only one muscle or group of muscles, which means you can build up that part of your body quickly. If you want your thigh muscles to really stand out in those shorts you just bought, the leg extension machine is for you!”
