Dua Lipa is one of the most celebrated singers on the planet. This week she celebrated her Golden Globe nomination for Best Original Song – in her swimsuit. She also has a lot of famous friends, including models, actors, and fellow singers. What health habits help keep Dua and her friends in such great shape? Celebwell has all the details about Dua’s friend group and all of their top diet and fitness rituals. 
1. Dua: Self-Care

Dua prioritizes wellness. "It's such a busy lifestyle, I feel like I need to try and do something for myself every day," she told Viva Magazine in 2018.
2. Dua: Yoga

"I also love to do yoga,” Dua told Refinery29 in 2021. She “always, always” travels with a yoga mat, she revealed during a 73 Questions interview with Vogue. There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood,” they said. “People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”
3. Dua: Pilates

Dua added to Viva that she also does Pilates. According to research, Pilates exercises are designed to increase muscle strength, endurance, and flexibility, and to improve posture and balance. Experts maintain that it is a great workout for leaning out. 
4. Dua: Healthy Diet

Dua tries to “stay as healthy as possible whenever I can," she dished to Urban List. "I'm never one to stop myself having treats, I do love naughty treats. But I try and limit it to days when I'm not as busy, because if I do eat a doughnut it usually puts me in a food coma!" Some of her other favorite eats and drinks? Maple oat latte, her mother’s cooking, and a vodka martini filthy. 
5. Dua: HIIT Style Workouts

"I try and work out as much as I can," Lipa added to Viva. "I love doing something that's really fast and quick, like a 15-minute HIIT session which I can do before I start my day." She told Vogue that she fills her workout with intervals of mountain climbers, jumping jacks, and burpees. "It's high-intensity interval training, but it's so quick, it's over before it's even started!" she said. "I'm still trying to see what my boundaries are and how far I can push myself and when I need to rest.”
6. Emily Ratajkowski: Group Fitness

“I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself, so the class environment works really, really well for me,” Emily told InStyle. “I am also someone who, even in a class, will get chatty and [distracted]. I think that’s the great thing about STRONG — the music keeps me really focused and in the zone,” she continues. “You just feel like you're, you know, Superwoman really pushing herself. You end up working harder and it's a better, more intense workout, without even noticing.”
7. Katy Perry: 60/40 Diet

Dua and Katy Perry are pals. The singer prioritizes healthy eating.  While most stars follow the 80/20 plan, she is a little more lenient.  “Let’s be honest,” she told Prevention, “it’s 60/40.” Per PopSugar, Katy eats healthy, balanced meals including soups, grilled chicken, quinoa, asparagus, fresh-pressed juices, and coconut water.
8. Taylor Swift: Running

She also befriended pop sensation Taylor Swift after the two performed side-by-side at the Prime Day Amazon concert. "I love Taylor," she told Wired "We've met a couple times. She's amazing, what an incredible artist." When it comes to exercise, Taylor is a runner. "For me, running is about blasting a whole bunch of new songs and running to the beat. It's also good because it makes me find a gym wherever I am," the singer explained to WebMD. "I'm very much out in the world, and I love exploring the places we go when we tour. It's important for me to live a full life." If she isn’t running outdoors, she will hit the treadmill for an hour. 
9. Charli XCX: Exercising 5 Times a Week

Dua is friends with fellow pop star Charlie XCX, who explained to Forbes that exercise is basically her job. “I perform in a really high octane and energetic type of way. So, for me, it's important to keep fit,” she said “Also, I find that if I don't exercise, I feel less awake. I try to work out five times a week because it really lifts my mood and makes me feel more positive. It's important for me to stay balanced.”
10. Rina Lipa: Swimming

Rina, Dua’s sister, is part of her posse. Like her big sis, Rina spends a lot of time in the water and loves to swim. “I'm quitting everything to become a mermaid,” she captioned an Instagram post. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, according to the CDC. 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, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well. 
11. Alexa Demie: Self-Care

Euphoria star Alexa Demie is often photographed out on the town with Dua. “I didn't have the easiest upbringing, so I really turned to find ways to help myself. My mom is very spiritual. I read a lot of books. I explored meditation; I figured out that nature is somewhere that I feel connected, and I feel like rooted and feel like my truest self. And so I found this place that's hidden in L.A., and I made it a point to go there a lot, especially while I was healing. And just trying to be really grounded and aware of my surroundings, the people that I keep around me, my energy, who's draining me, who isn't. And also forgiveness. I think the main thing is you don't want to go around with a chip on your shoulder your whole life,” she told Hola!
12. Sarah Lysander: Walking

Sarah Lysander can often be found vacationing with Dua. She told Arcadia that one of her main forms of exercise is taking her dog “for a hours walk” around her home in London. 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.
13. Rosie Amanda Viva: Running and Walking

Rosie Amanda Viva is another regular in Dua’s posse. The model opened up to the BBC about suffering from bipolar disorder. She revealed that she "thrives" when she maintains a healthy diet, drinks little alcohol, and gets enough sleep. Running is also her "happy place" and going for a walk "without my phone and listening to the sounds of the world" is also an important part of her health routine. 
14. Jennie Kim: Pilates

BLACKPINK’s Jennie Kim and Dua are friends who have gone Instagram official. The singer is one of the many devotees of pilates, which “strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility resulting in improved overall health,” says the Mayo Clinic. “It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.”
15. Gigi Hadid: Walking

Prior to dating Anwar Hadid, Bella became friends with his older sister, Gigi. Gigi and her daughter “walk a lot,” she told The WSJ. “With lifting her and running around all day and going to the park, I get moving.” Physical activity is anything that gets your body moving. Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and 2 days of muscle-strengthening activity, according to the current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.

The future star of Wicked is anything but. From Ariana's shift towards natural beauty to Lady Gaga's rejuvenating ice baths, here we delve into their health and wellness journeys. Victoria Monet's dedication to fitness, Nicki Minaj's dietary choices, and Normani's resilience through adversity all shine through. Demi Lovato's two-year sobriety journey and Troye Sivan's newfound self-confidence add depth to the narrative. Lea Michele emphasizes balanced health, Meghan Trainor's post-pregnancy transformation inspires, Elizabeth Gillies embraces her Dynasty reboot, and Bowen Yang offers a unique comedy perspective.
1. Ariana Grande

These days, Ariana Grande is all about natural beauty. When she was taking her followers through her skincare routine, the singer revealed that she has stopped getting work done. “Had a ton of lip filler over the years and Botox. I stopped in 2018 because I just felt so–too much. I just felt like hiding, you know…My relationship with beauty has changed over the years.”
2. Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga and Grande worked on the 2020 song, “Rain On Me” together. Gaga is a big fan of ice baths to help her recover. She shared this photo of herself in one on Instagram. Gaga captioned the post, “Post show routine: ice bath for 5-10 min, hot bath for 20, then compression suit packed with ice packs for 20.”
3. Victoria Monet
Shutterstock
Victoria Monet is a frequent collaborator of Grande’s. She has written on each of Grande’s albums, and the two recorded the song “Got Her Own” together. In an interview with MTV, Monet talked about her love of fitness. “It’s really become quite a lifestyle. I think that it’s largely in part because I have to be in front of the camera a lot and try on a bunch of clothes that are usually runway-size. They’re very small so that it can play with your confidence emotionally. But just making sure that I’m doing my best and transferring my gym work to a healthy eating lifestyle kind of certifies me for a longer and healthier life in general.”
4. Nicki Minaj
Shutterstock
Nicki Minaj and Grande are close friends. They have worked on several songs together, including “Bang Bang”, “Bed”, and “Side to Side.” In a 2013 interview with Marie Claire, Minaj talked about her wellness secrets. "When I feel I need to lose weight, I just change what I eat," she explains. "I cut out carbs and sugar. I'll do water and protein and fruit. But I do think that you should work out."
5. Normani

Normani was an opening act for Grande on tour, and they worked together on the song “Bad To You,” on the Charlie’s Angels soundtrack. She revealed in an interview with Billboard that she’s had to get through a lot of hardship. “I’ve been through a lot, just in my personal life, you know? Even just talking about my parents and what they’ve been through on top of COVID and trying to get the project out I’ve just – I’ve had a lot up against me, but I always manage somehow to pull through as best as I can, and honestly that’s by the grace of God and him just giving me the strength to endure and persevere.”
6. Demi Lovato

Demi Lovato and Grande are close friends. They worked on the song “Met Him Last Night” for Lovato’s 2021 album. In an interview with Howard Stern, Lovato talked about her overdose and sobriety. “It’s been almost two years since I used, and I don’t wake up every day struggling anymore because I’m choosing it for myself. Now, I understand the pitfalls of how deep and dark it can get, and how desperate I can get, and I never want to feel that again.”
7. Troye Sivan

Troye Sivan has been friends with Grande for a long time. The two worked on the song “Dance To This.” In an interview with Byrdie, Sivan talked about finding self-confidence. "I think the thing that is inspiring, [this] sounds so, like, ego vibes, but honestly, it's like an internal comfortability and confidence that I have found recently. In the last year, I have found that I'm way more excited about everything because I feel like I can handle it way better than I used to.”
8. Lea Michele

Lea Michele worked with Grande on the first season of Scream Queens. Michele shared some of her fitness secrets with People. "It's so important for me to stress that being healthy is not about being a gym rat. It's not about being 90 lbs. This is really how I live every single day." 
9. Meghan Trainor
Shutterstock
Meghan Trainor and Grande are friends, and they both worked on the 2015 single “Boys Like You.” In an interview with ET Canada, Trainor talked about losing weight after having her first child. “I worked every day and challenged myself. I was like, ‘If I can survive a C-section, I can do anything.’ I  was very dedicated and I started seeing the pounds come off like one week at a time. My confidence level was a good eight or nine.”
10. Elizabeth Gillies
Shutterstock
Elizabeth Gillies has known Grande since they were children. They starred in 13: The Musical on Broadway and the TV show Victorious. Gillies has also appeared in several of Grande’s music videos. She talked about working on the Dynasty reboot to Town & Country Magazine. “It’s really everything I’ve ever wanted to do. I figured I wouldn’t get a chance to break down or cry until maybe halfway through the season, and it happened in episode two. So she’s crying, she’s laughing, she’s being vulnerable, she has a wild love triangle going on—I have so much to do as an actor that I’m never bored. And I get to do it wearing designer clothes.”
11. Bowen Yang
Shutterstock
Bowen Yang is working with Grande on Wicked, and the two have been seen hanging out. In an interview with GQ, he talked about being a cast member on Saturday Night Live, and how he deals with reactions to jokes. “I think the sooner you take responsibility for what reaction you want to get out of an audience, the better,” he said. “There's this joke that Anna Drezen wrote for Melissa Villaseñor, where Melissa plays every teen-girl murder suspect on Law & Order. And there's this joke in there that is like, We stabbed her as a joke, but she took it the wrong way and started bleeding! If your intention is to stab someone, do it. You can't absolve yourself from the consequence of someone bleeding, you know?”

Lopez’s fitness secrets have been coveted by many. However, one of her secrets is pretty obvious. Lopez is an incredible dancer, and even started her career out as a “Fly Girl” dancer on the show In Living Color. "During aerobic activity, you repeatedly move large muscles in your arms, legs and hips. You'll notice your body's responses quickly," reports the Mayo Clinic. "You'll breathe faster and more deeply. This maximizes the amount of oxygen in your blood. Your heart will beat faster, which increases blood flow to your muscles and back to your lungs. Your small blood vessels (capillaries) will widen to deliver more oxygen to your muscles and carry away waste products, such as carbon dioxide and lactic acid. Your body will even release endorphins, natural painkillers that promote an increased sense of well-being."
2. Addison Rae

Model Elle Macpherson lounged in the sun on her Instagram story this week, and she wore a stunning black bathing suit. Macpherson is on an Alkaline diet, which involves eating foods that affect your body’s pH levels. She told Vogue that this diet helped her clear up her skin. “What I’d always thought were sunspots – actually, they were sugar spots - started to clear, and my skin looked tighter, dewier, plumper,” she said. “I started to lose weight, probably because my sugar cravings had subsided. My digestion improved. I felt more emotionally balanced.”
4. Eiza Gonzalez

Actress Eiza Gonzalez posed on a boat on Instagram this week. She wore a light green and white patterned bathing suit with ruffles.

"It doesn't have to be intense, just getting the body some blood flow and not staying stagnant."
5. Rita Ora

Her most recent was of her posing in a black and white bathing suit top and skirt with a giant inflatable unicorn. Hilton is open about the fact that she doesn’t do traditional workouts. However, she tells Yahoo Life that she has a machine that helps her workout throughout her busy day. “When I’m getting a facial, I just lie there and this machine attaches to your body and is basically like doing a million sit-ups. You just lie down and relax, but your whole body’s being worked out the whole time. I think that’s an amazing hack for working out and not actually having to do anything.”

Whatever it is, I try to change it up every day to keep things interesting. When you’re on a tour bus, every day and every place is different, so you never know what you’re going to find. That’s always one way to keep it interesting.”

That often becomes my workout, just performing and being onstage. I guess you can say I exercise a lot, but really, I don’t realize I’m getting a workout while I’m dancing onstage because I’m always having so much fun.”
3. Camila Cabello

Camila Cabello works out with a personal trainer, Jenna Willis, three times a week.

4. Billie Elish

In a 2018 Tumblr post, Billie Elish revealed why she went vegan in 2014. There were a lot of reasons,” she wrote. “I love animals and I just think there’s no point in creating something out of an animal when the animal is already there. Leave animals alone. Damn. Also, I’m lactose intolerant and dairy is horrible for your skin and my skin is VERY aware of that.”
5. Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift is a big runner. "For me, running is about blasting a whole bunch of new songs and running to the beat. It's also good because it makes me find a gym wherever I am," the singer explained to WebMD. "I'm very much out in the world, and I love exploring the places we go when we tour. It's important for me to live a full life." If she isn’t running outdoors, she will hit the treadmill for an hour. 
6. Lizzo

Lizzo is all about exercise. “I want people to realize that fitness doesn’t have a look or an aesthetic or a weight. Fitness is a very personal thing that’s between you and your doctor,” the star told Billboard. “To have a big black girl singing about how she’s working on the calisthenics – because mind you, I be in the gym everyday, but people don’t believe that … I think that it’s empowering for young girls, to see that it’s okay to work out and not have a six-pack.” 
7. Miranda Lambert

Miranda refuses to go on strict diets. "I did [Nutrisystem] for a month, and then got tired of it. You get tired of any diet. I've tried everything," she told Women’s Health. She recently changed things up and focuses on eating healthy, balanced meals.. "I just literally would make grilled chicken breast, sweet potato salad. There was no miracle." She also eats veggies, enhanced with flavor. "I like broccoli with cheese, and carrots with ranch dressing," she added. "It's just how I eat." She gets her greens in with green juice. "So if I don't eat anything else green that day, I feel like I've got my green in."
8. Katy Perry

Katy Perry has her own version of the 80/20 method of eating. “Let’s be honest,” she told Prevention, “it’s 60/40.” Per PopSugar, Katy eats healthy, balanced meals including soups, grilled chicken, quinoa, asparagus, fresh-pressed juices, and coconut water. She also makes sure to move. “I have had a dance with depression, and hot yoga helps clear it all out,” Katy told Prevention. One of her favorites?

"Jennifer just eats whatever she wants and whatever she wants; cookies, ice cream, everything." However, he did confesse that she spends a lot of time exercising. “She works out. I mean, I work out too, but I don’t magically appear to be 20 years old you know what I mean? With perfect skin and the whole thing,” he joked. “There’s no taking away the work ethic. The work ethic is real, the discipline is very real, but also the superhuman thing is real. She’s the most gorgeous woman in the world, she looks spectacular.”
13. Christina Aguilera

Christina Aguilera has added some swerve to her curves over the years. “I think we all have our good days and our bad days in how we feel about ourselves. Entering this business, I hated being super skinny,” she recently confessed. “Once I turned 21, I started filling out a little bit, and I was loving my new curves. I appreciated having a booty. I've always said that women are way more interesting to look at than men! I have a hard time looking at the early pictures of myself because I remember feeling so insecure. I would never want to relive my 20s—you're so in your own head and finding your confidence. As you age, you stop comparing yourself to other people and start appreciating your own body and owning it.”
14. Dua Lipa

Sometimes she will even hold a five-pound medicine ball or dumbbell at chest height while doing them. She also does an exercise sequence consisting of a basic crunch, modified into reverse crunches and ending in a double crunch. Dumbbell side bends, which also tone love handles, are another of her moves. She adds 25-minute cardio circuit sessions five times a week.

Craig Smith, Madonna's trainer and the creative director of her Hard Candy Fitness clubs, told Glamour that his star client hits the gym almost every day, "Madonna does five to six workouts weekly that vary on a daily basis and focus on a variety of methods and training modalities," she said.

Saweetie’s favorite part of her body to train? “Well, I love legs and I was an athlete since I can ever remember. I come from an athletic family. My grandfather played for the San Francisco 49ers and my uncles played football as well. My aunties ran track. We’re all really athletic. So when it comes to fitness, I love working on my legs,” she told Women Fitness. “I think if you have good legs, you look good overall. So, I would say squats and leg presses. Even, mixing in some dance moves like squatting and dancing. I’ve been trying to practice it more and more, It’s a really good exercise!”
18. Britney Spears

When you’re eating plant-based you will definitely have more energy.”
20. Adele

Adele majorly transformed her body, revealing to American Vogue that her drive to exercise was more about her mental health than physical. "It became my time," she said about exercise. "I realized that when I was working out, I didn't have any anxiety. It was never about losing weight. I thought, If I can make my body physically strong, and I can feel that and see that, then maybe one day I can make my emotions and my mind physically strong." She trains at Heart & Hustle, a no-frills private gym in West Hollywood. Her exercise sessions consist of intensive weightlifting and circuit training sessions. She also spends time on the elliptical machine while at the gym.

This mom of three is a huge fan of #EmsculptNeo for strengthening my core and helping to heal my diastasis recti.”

Hewitt has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared some of her favorite products in an interview with Good Housekeeping. Hewitt says that she likes to use an ice roller. "I keep it simple. I don't use a lot of stuff. I really enjoy ice rollers. I'm really into those right now, and my kids are into those."

            
                She Keeps Her Skin Moisturized

One of Hewitt’s biggest skincare secrets? Keeping it moisturized. Hewitt shared her favorite moisturizer and lip balm with Good Housekeeping. "A big one that's a classic is Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream. And their Lip Balm. I've used that for [what feels like] 150 years and I'm really big into that."

On Instagram, Hewitt revealed the secret behind her impressive eyebrows. "I have been using this product and I'm noticing people bringing up my brows. I don't have anything on them today really, except this product, but it's the Rare Beauty lifting gel stuff. I mean, Selena, 'thank you' is all I can say. I love it, so I'm going to put it up so that you know what it is, but that's what it is. That is the brow lifting that people are talking about. That's all I got."

            
                She Does a Variety of Workouts
            
            
        FilmMagic
For Hewitt, fitness is all about variety. “I try to switch it up a bit,” she told OK! Magazine. “I’ve found that if every week I do something different it tricks my muscles into not getting used to doing any one thing. I’ve been doing pilates, I’ve been doing yoga, I’ve done just plain old walking. I wear 10 pound weights on my ankles while I’m working just so that as I’m moving during the day I’m constantly building muscle. It’s not great for your back but I’m doing it anyway. I do a booty workout thing that I just did for Shape, which was really fun. And I do Zumba. I have DVDs and I dance around like a crazy person in my house.”

            
                She Builds Confidence

Hewitt tells People that she wants to build her confidence up. “I think I’m a work in progress,” she admits. “[But] I feel it’s so much better than [it was] a year-and-a-half ago, and I feel like in another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today.”

            
                She Wants to be a Role Model

Hewitt tells People that she wants to be a role model for others. In it, she shared the advice she gives to young girls. “When I meet young girls, I’m always like, ‘Just do me one favor. Love what you look like right now – and remember I said it 10 years from now because it’s the greatest gift I can give.’”

Over the past few years, Sydney Sweeney has become one of America’s sweethearts with celebrated roles in everything from hit HBO shows Euphoria and White Lotus to big-screen movies Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Anyone But You. In addition to her impressive acting ability, the star is a total bombshell and has one of the fittest figures in Hollywood. Here are the top 5 habits that help her stay fit at 27. 

            
                Water Skiing

Sydney has been water skiing since she was a toddler. “The moment I could walk, my mom put me on what’s called a U-board to learn how to ski,” she told Women’s Health. “I remember that whenever we would go by the docks of my grandma’s or my cousin’s house, I’d wave. I felt so cool because I could take off one hand. That’s my earliest memory of skiing, but I’ve been doing it as long as I can remember. It’s my favorite.” How does it help her achieve her amazing body? “It’s a lot of upper body strength, it’s balance, it’s core, it’s legs—you get tired really fast,” she says. “I see such a change in my body after an entire summer of [skiing]. My arms are stronger, more sculpted. My abs are rock solid. But I never look at it as a workout because it is so much fun,” she said. 

            
                Morning Workouts

Sydney mixes up her exercise routine, but likes to get workouts over with early in the day. “I like to work out in the morning, so I’ll either go for a run or I’ll go to Solidcore,” says Sydney. The high-intensity, low-impact Pilates-inspired workout “makes me feel so strong, but also elongated,” Sydney said about her sweat sessions. “I feel so good afterwards.”

            
                Self-Care

Sydney engages in self-care activities. “I love to paint, and I love to read,” she said. “Those are the activities that are just for me.” One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years than those who weren't readers or who read periodicals. 

            
                She Walks and Hikes

One of the ways she treats her anxiety is by spending time outdoors with her dog, Tank. She takes him on walks or hikes. 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.

Mariana Morais is showing off her ab-fab figure – in a two-piece exercise set. In a new social media post, the fitness influencer flaunts her fantastic figure in a brown sports bra and leggings. “Self Progress & Development is not always linear. Sometimes we take steps back & that’s just a sign to course correct so we can leap forward. If 2024 wasn’t the year you expected, use it as an opportunity to learn, grow, & carry on. It’s you VS you - continue to try, focus on consistency > perfection & you will prevail 🤎 rooting for us all to strengthen our mind & bodies this year,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits. 

            
                Strength Training

Mariana relies on old-school strength training to keep her body toned. “Training till failure instead of reps + taking my ab routine up a notch by incorporating weighted exercises,” she wrote about one of her workout tactics. “I can feel my muscles being challenged and am in tune with my movements.” According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:
Develop strong bones
Manage your weight
Enhance your quality of life

Other healthy habits? “Prioritizing digestion,” she writes in the same post. “Making sure I get enough fiber & starting off every morning with a juice cleanse. This has helped me feel so much better everyday.” She also gets regular blood work done. “So important to check your levels and know what’s going on in your body routinely! Don’t skip the doc apts, always better to be preventative.”

        Mariana does reformer Pilates. “POV: Stepping into the prettiest torture chamber,” she wrote across a video of herself at the studio. Why is Pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic, the workout has many benefits, as it “strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility, resulting in improved overall health.” It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, stress and back pain relief, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

Mariana recently got an aesthetic body treatment, Emsculpt NEO. “I’ve heard all the rage about the benefits to spot reducing fat & toning muscle so I had to give it a try to target those pesky lower abs. It was a 10/10 & a great addition to my workout routine,” she wrote.
