In the world of sports, the ESPY Awards stand as a testament to the incredible achievements of athletes who continue to push the boundaries of physical excellence. Among these remarkable individuals are the female ESPY Award winners, whose bodies are finely tuned instruments of athleticism and strength. In this article, we delve into the fitness, wellness, and training secrets of 15 exceptional women who have earned the coveted ESPY accolades. 
1. Mikaela Shifrin

Mikaela Shifrin won Best Athlete, Women’s Sports, this year. She revealed some of her favorite workouts on Instagram. Shifrin enjoys doing Pilates. “This is just straight up nourishment for the whole body,” she explained in the caption. “It’s a serious combo of a lot of core, upper body, hip, leg strength and active mobility. My sessions range from more recovery focused to a very intense core work, but it really can be targeted for your specific needs. It’s been a godsend for me over the last few years.”

A’ja Wilson won the 2023 Best WNBA Award. She shared some of her wellness secrets with Bustle. In it, Wilson revealed her hydration secrets. “I don’t carry a water bottle around, but I do drink a lot of water. I hydrate myself with Ladder, an electrolyte packet that you can mix in. Sometimes I get tired of just straight water when I’m rehydrating on the bench during a game, so I’ll add that for some flavor.”
3. Claressa Shields

Claressa Shields won Best Boxer at this year’s awards. She shared her training routine and secrets with Muscle and Fitness. “I make myself get up early in the morning to do my cardio. My coaches [at Jackson Wink] right now are showing me a lot of new techniques, which my body still needs to be conditioned to do. I’ll work on wrestling drills for about 45 minutes, then learn how to fight off the cage and against it, also learn how to take somebody down when they’re trying to resist.”
4. Katie Ledecky

Katie Ledecky walked away with two awards at last year’s ESPY’s: Best Athlete, Women’s Sports, and Best Olympian, Women’s Sports. She shared her diet secrets with E! News. “I keep it pretty consistent. The only day that I don't train is Sundays, so even right now when I'm taking a little bit of time off, I'm trying to stick to a pretty regular routine. So oatmeal for breakfast, some sort of egg sandwich for lunch, or eggs with toast and then dinner is what varies the most but it is either carbs or some sort of protein: chicken, steak, salmon, something along those lines.”
5. Megan Rapinoe

Megan Rapinoe won Best Play at last year’s awards, and the Arthur Ashe Courage Award with her teammates this year. She shared some of her fitness secrets with Bustle. “Weight training is really big for me. Obviously, I run a lot playing soccer, but I also make sure that I strength train and pay attention to how everything’s working in my body, especially as I get older. I love Pilates, which is amazing for that. I feel like it strengthens you from the inside out. Rest is also really important. It’s how I get the maximum out of my workouts and how I make sure my body's recovering.”
6. Ashley Hatch

Ashley Hatch won the Best NWSL Player award in 2022. She revealed to The Washington Post that she makes sure to not succumb to pressure during games. “When my mind’s right, sometimes even if I’m not feeling physically my best. I feel like I can push through hard times, and I can play even better.” Hatch says that she does breathing and confidence building exercises. 
7. Candace Parker

Candace Parker won the 2022 award for Best WNBA Player. She shared how she’s changing up her approach on the court to SB Nation. “I think simplicity has always been difficult for me. I think physically because you know, I’ve been versatile and have played multiple positions. I think simplicity was always, you know, me dribbling and me doing this and whatever. And now I’ve just learned that simplicity is key, doing things with the least amount of motion is going to benefit me greatly. So I think that is the biggest thing to me is just yes, I can dribble and do that, but it’s more beneficial for me to be able to do it with less motion.”
8. Nelly Korda

Nelly Korda won the 2022 Best Female Golfer Award. She shared how she warms up for a game to Golf Digest. “It’s more that I’m working on my strike out there. It’s about finding my timing. I typically start about an hour and five minutes before my tee time. I want to make sure my body and muscles are loose. I start off with pitch shots on the range and then I work my way all the way up through my bag.”
9. Crystal Dunn

Crystal Dunn won the Arthur Ashe Courage Award with her US Women’s Soccer teammates this year. In an interview with POPSugar, Dunn talked about how she approaches the sport, after being cut from the 2015 World Cup. "I was so uptight about everything. I'm a totally different player than I was four years ago. I take things as they come now. I try not to take everything so seriously, so harshly."
10. Aubrey Kingsbury

Aubrey Kingsbury was another recipient of this year’s Arthur Ashe Courage Award. She likes to spend time outside, and specifically enjoys going hiking. Kingsbury posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself hiking in North Island, New Zealand. She captioned the post, “NZ, thanks for an epic adventure.”
11. Alex Morgan

Alex Morgan has won several ESPY’s, including this year’s Arthur Ashe Courage Award. She talked about how her diet has evolved to Insider. "I have a really good relationship with my body and understanding what it needs and nourishing it in the right way," Morgan said. "That comes with years of experience, but you have to start somewhere, and I think a lot of female athletes aren't given that support early in their career."
12. Casey Krueger

Casey Krueger also won the Arthur Ashe Courage Award this year. In an essay with NWSLsoccer.com, she talked about her journey to becoming a mother and returning to soccer. “After my three-month moratorium on vacuuming and running ended, it was time to get back on my grind,” Krueger said. “I was still far from where I needed to be to rejoin the Red Stars, so I trained on my own until I was ready. I practiced with a local boys’ club team, played pickup with some of my teammates, and did double days designed by my trainer — but some of my most cherished memories from that time were when I’d workout in the basement of our home. I’d bring Caleb down there with me and let him hangout in his baby bouncer while I focused on getting my strength back. Watching him watch me as I sweated through reps was the greatest motivation I could have asked for, a living, breathing reminder that after everything I’d gone through, and for all the love I didn’t even know I was capable of giving to him, I had everything I needed to get to where I wanted to be. I could do this.”
13. Sam Kerr

Footballer Sam Kerr won Best International Athlete, Women’s Soccer in 2022. In her book, she talked about how she approaches games. “I try to shift my focus to the task at hand – that one match or that one training session or that one goal – and stay focused on it. Staying in the present and focusing on that one thing isn’t easy, but it definitely helps. I just have to believe in what I’m doing and try to ignore any distracting, negative or outside factors that start to creep in. Using this mental tool to maintain this kind of attitude is a big factor in winning for me. I truly believe that.”
14. Lauren Holiday

Former soccer player, Lauren Holiday, and her husband, NBA player Jrue Holiday, won the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Award this year. She shared why she retired from her sport to ActiveKids.com. “As much as I love playing the sport of soccer, I also know that it's not my identity. I know that I was called to do other things and I'm not the type of person that can focus on multiple things at once. When I'm in soccer, I'm so focused on it that I feel guilty if I go a day without working out or trying to better my game. For me, it just came to the point that I wanted to do other things and I was ready. I've accomplished all that I wanted in soccer.”
15. Christen Press

Christen Press helped accept this year’s Arthur Ashe Courage Award on behalf of the US Women’s Soccer Team. She shared how she prevents injuries in an interview with ESPN. "I haven't had many injuries and I know that's because I take care of my body and I do the things that I need to do to keep it strong. And I'm very grateful for the way that I feel when I play. I feel very powerful. I feel fast. I feel unstoppable and that's because of my body."

Grab your Delorian and step back into the electric and vibrant era of the '80s, a time defined by big hair, bold fashion, and groundbreaking pop culture. In this iconic decade, female celebrities weren't just screen sirens and chart-toppers; they became emblems of health and beauty, inspiring millions. From Molly Ringwald's quintessential girl-next-door charm in "The Breakfast Club" to Gloria Estefan's pulsating Miami Sound Machine rhythms, these women dominated the decade. This feature spotlights 15 extraordinary '80s female celebrities, revealing their secrets to maintaining remarkable bodies and radiant health. It's a nostalgic journey through fitness tips, dietary habits, and wellness philosophies that echo the unique spirit of the '80s.
1. Molly Ringwald
See on Instagram
Molly Ringwald starred in some of the ‘80s most popular movies, like The Breakfast Club. She shared some of her favorite skincare tips with The Irish Independent. “Now I’m on the hunt for the perfect sunscreen. It’s like the holy grail: finding one that works but doesn’t clog your skin. Right now, I really like this tinted one by Eve Lom. It doesn’t feel masky. I even wear it out at night."
2. Gloria Estefan

Singer Gloria Estefan is a believer in balance when it comes to diet. She tells Parade, “I’m all about balance. In the 44 years that Emilio and I have been married, we’ve never opened a bottle of wine, just him and I, alone at home at dinner. I love wine, but it’s a social thing for us. So, if we go out and have a nice dinner, we absolutely will indulge. But if I can avoid the calories at home, I do. If I’m out with my family, we’re on vacation and I want to have dessert or eat some pasta, I will. I’m not so hard on myself because life is meant to be lived and enjoyed. I want to avoid any extreme that is going to make me have to cut anything out permanently from my life. So that’s the way I’ve lived.”
3. Michelle Pfeiffer
See on Instagram
Actress Michelle Pfeiffer shared her approach to aging in an interview with People. She says that she doesn’t stress out about it. “I certainly see that I’ve changed,” she said. “I just try not to dwell on it. Aging happens to every single one of us. Once you accept that it unburdens you…All I really care about is that I'm able to age gracefully and that I don't ever look like a wax figure of myself.”
4. Heather Locklear
See on Instagram
In the ‘80s, Heather Locklear starred in Dynasty. She shared some of her fitness secrets in an interview with Parade. "I do resistance training three times a week. That really helps with defying gravity and keeping things in place. I have light weights to do reps with both my arms and legs. I do cardio a couple times a week on the treadmill, with the music blasting. It's what gets me through."
5. Cindy Crawford
See on Instagram
Supermodel Cindy Crawford shared her diet secrets with Allure. She says that she believes in having a small indulgence each day. "At the end of lunch, I always have a small piece of dark chocolate — it tells my body that I'm done with my meal. In my experience, if you're craving something and deny yourself, you wind up eating five other things, and then you eat the thing you're craving anyway.”
6. Brooke Shields
See on Instagram
Brooke Shields is an actress and model, best known for modeling for Calvin Klein in 1980. She shared her skincare secrets in an interview with Glamour. “We don't really think of our skin as an organ, but it is the largest organ of the body,” she says. “So as I got older, I started enjoying the ritual or the idea that it's not a chore to take care of your skin…it's a privilege. It doesn't have to be 20 minutes. It can be seven minutes.”
7. Cyndi Lauper

Cyndi Lauper is responsible for some of the ‘80s most memorable pop songs. She released “Time After Time” and “True Colors” in the decade. Lauper has psoriasis, and has had to change her diet for that reason. She opened up about this to Parade. “I used to eat what I wanted, but as my psoriasis got worse, I knew I couldn’t have spicy or fatty foods, alcohol or gluten that might cause flare-ups. I am trying to quit sugar, too. When I eat salad or something raw, I just feel better.”
8. Elle MacPherson
See on Instagram
Elle MacPherson is one of the most successful models of all time. Her skin is amazing, and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared some of her tips with GetTheGloss, and says that hydration is one of her biggest secrets. “I drink three litres of water every day and start each morning with warm water, lemon and ginger, and two capsules of The Skin Elixir with water.  I leave the jar of skin caps next to my toothbrush to remind me to take them.  I take two teaspoons of The Super Elixir TM ️ greens in water in the morning too. Following this, I’ll spray Ion Skin Support mist each morning to reduce redness and skin damage and then spend 15 minutes in the sun to top up my vitamin D levels.”
9. Christie Brinkley
See on Instagram
Christie Brinkley is one of the ‘80s most popular supermodels. She appeared in Billy Joel’s video for “Uptown Girl.” She revealed to New York Magazine that she has started avoiding diets. "I tried some pretty weird diets in the beginning,” Brinkley admits. “Everything from juice fasting to eating one kind of food at a time, to eating a grapefruit first before everything. The only thing that really lasts is a well-balanced diet."
10. Paula Abdul
See on Instagram
Paula Abdul rose to prominence in the ‘80s, with hits like “Cold Hearted” and “Opposites Attract.” She shared her secrets for getting through long shows and rehearsals with People. “I do a lot of stretching,” she says. “When I’m with my trainer I’m doing Pilates, I’m doing a lot of back and core work. Even though I’m dancing all day I often do straight cardio just so that I’m conditioning my body. And after each performance I usually get in an ice-cold tub. It’s not fun! It shocks your body, but it helps with inflammation.”
11. Vanessa Williams
See on Instagram
Vanessa Williams tells First For Women that she has a strong support system around her that she turns to. “As women, we are a community,” she says. “So don’t be afraid to ask for advice or help, and to look for a mentor. I’ve learned that there are many people who are willing to be teachers to help you along if you ask. On this Earth, we have setbacks, struggles and obstacles, but I think I’m here to learn how to keep moving ahead. You have to be able to say, ‘What is this experience teaching me?’ so you can move through it and move on in your life. Avoiding something or denying it won’t get you anywhere— but if you learn from it, you can find so much freedom on the other side.”
12. Linda Hamilton

Linda Hamilton starred in the hit film Terminator. She also returned to the franchise, and talked about her process to InStyle. “Mackie Shilstone was my fantastic trainer. He’s a legend and crosses over into every sport. And he understands the body in motion. Peyton Manning has even trained with Shilstone to prepare for the Super Bowl. I got to work with him because Serena Williams was pregnant. It was a wonderful accident of timing. Yes, we lifted and pumped weight and cross-trained; there were Pilates, supplements, and a diet. I didn’t eat carbohydrates for a year and a half. But everything Shilstone did with me was in motion.”
13. Demi Moore
See on Instagram
Demi Moore rose to prominence in the ‘80s. She appeared in films like St. Elmo’s Fire and About Last Night… and was a member of the Brat Pack. For Moore, wellness is a priority. “For me, well-being is a choice of living consciously with intention, being mindful and making choices that are memorable and meaningful,” she tells CNN. “It isn’t something I fit into my lifestyle; it’s just how I live my life.”
14. Sharon Stone
See on Instagram
Sharon Stone starred in ‘80s films like Cold Steel and Above The Law. She became one of the decade’s sex symbols. Stone revealed in an interview with Vogue that she weight trains to stay in shape. “I do all my 'arm jazz' with these lead weights. Pushing upwards for 15 minutes with a lead weight in your hand makes a lot of difference. I have little arm strap-on weight bracelets too, and I put them on while I'm on my computer or at my desk and just leave them on all day because you'd be amazed how much working out you can do on your computer with a couple of pounds on your arms."
15. Daryl Hannah

Daryl Hannah is an actress, best known for her role in the ‘80s film Splash. She is a vegetarian, and has started a blog about vegan junk food. “I grew up on junk food, and for me and millions of other Americans, it’s comfort food,” she tells Vegetarian Times. “I wanted to say those cravings can be satisfied with real food, food that grows in the ground or from trees. Treats can be good for you when made with whole, organic fruits and vegetables!”

Riverdale star, Lili Reinhart, has no time for society’s standards. She opened up about her reasons for speaking out in an interview with IndieWire. "Sometimes I do feel like a little bit of the black sheep speaking out," said Reinhart. "'Why is no one else saying anything about this?' Then I realize why they're not saying anything about it because the second I do, here come 30 articles saying that I'm 'slamming' a celebrity. I'm actually just sharing an opinion that is incredibly important to me."2. Camila Mendes

Riverdale star Camila Mendes is living a more low-key life. “I think before the pandemic, I was running a mile a minute,” she told SELF. “And being forced to stop and take stock of my priorities was very life-changing. I think when something like a pandemic happens, it just puts everything into perspective, and you realize how short life is. You start to think about how you want to live it, and what you could do differently. So I think in many ways, I’ve reevaluated my priorities and started to sit with myself more. And I think a lot of people have done that. It’s good.3. Madelaine Petsch

Riverdale star, Madelaine Petsch talked about her diet and workout in an interview with People. “I’ve been plant-based my whole life,” she said. “Being vegan keeps my body fueled and running smoothly…I exercise for an hour and a half: a 2 to 3 mile run, and then muscle training…I’m not always able to plan ahead. My diet works for me because I can be very flexible about what I eat in a day.”4. Bridget Moynahan

Blue Bloods star, Bridget Moynahan, shared her approach to fitness with Us Weekly. “I know everybody would love to hear about a secret pill or great cleanse,” she said. “It’s just going back to what we were taught in school … Eating and working out…I’ve just always been active. It’s been part of my lifestyle my entire life. It’s been instilled from my childhood.”5. Jennifer Landon

Yellowstone star, Jennifer Landon, is a big supported of PanCan. She shared why in an interview with Morning Honey. "When I would talk to my general practitioner about getting a genetic test or genetic testing for pancreatic cancer, they would sort of look at me like, 'I don’t know what those tests are,'" she reveals. "So, it was more that a lot of doctors weren’t really aware of the tests that I needed and that is where PanCan can come in. If you reach out to patient services with them, they can sort of hold your hand and guide you through that."6. Daisy Haggard

Breeders star, Daisy Haggard, opened up about motherhood in an interview with Grazia Daily. “Having children is liberating because, at the moment, nothing is as important, so that really helps me with big decisions and things that used to scare me. It helps me put those things in perspective. I used to agonise about my decisions regarding work, where as now it’s really simple: is it worth not seeing the kids that day? [I feel like] my whole life, I sat in the flat in my pants and didn’t achieve much and then I had kids and suddenly had no time, was absolutely exhausted, and found myself achieving more than I had before, so that was a revelation. I think I had the luxury of too much time and not enough discipline. Now, when I’m away from them, I’m not going to waste that.”7. Amanda Peet

In a 2016 interview with Glamour, Fatal Attraction star, Amanda Peet, opened up about teaching her daughters healthy habits. “I have daughters, so I try not to have that calorie-counting mentality. I try not to expose them to that because I think girls should just play sports and not think about food until as late as possible.”
8. Missy Peregrym

FBI star, Missy Peregrym shared her skincare routine in an interview with Watch Magazine. "I really didn't have one until my facialist told me off, ha ha! So, now I use iS Clinical to help with hydrating and keeping my breakouts to a minimum. My three favorites from the line are the Reparative Moisture Emulsion, Active Serum, and Hydra-Cool Serum. I also love the Royal Oil Moisturizer from Bee Pure Apitherapy because it's super light and truly organic, and it's great at helping with dehydration from flying and changing climates. I even use it on my lips."9. Hannah Einbinder

Hacks star, Hannah Einbinder opened up about her career in an interview with People. "I had to learn a lot on my own," she says. "There's no other way. I started open mics right after college and no one can prepare you for that. I was out there, going all over the city, every single night of the week after my coffee shop job, with like, an almond milk-soaked flannel. Failing and succeeding and failing and succeeding for years. There's really nothing anyone can do. You just have to do it. You have to be obsessed with it and addicted to it, and I certainly was."10. Elizabeth Tulloch

Elizabeth “Bitsie” Tulloch currently plays Lois Lane on Superman & Lois. She shared some of her workouts in an interview. “I take private Pilates and gyrotonic sessions 2-3 times a week. I love Pilates because it strengthens my core and gyrotonics because it strengthens my back. I have minor scoliosis so I try not to run too much, and I’ve found that Pilates and gyrotonics are really effective ways of staying in shape without doing too much high-impact cardio.”
11. Danielle Pinnock

Ghosts star Danielle Pinnock recently wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post about body-shaming. In it, she talked about the need to advocate for herself with doctors. “At 16 years old, I lost 50 pounds by living on protein bars and diuretics; I received celebration and praise. Then my father died, and in my grief, I gained twice the weight I’d lost. For decades, I struggled to reach an elusive number on the scale, binge eating and battling bulimia. I have tried every diet imaginable, including the notorious ‘Weigh Down’ scam, which encourages people to pray away their hunger. When I see the doctor, I must strenuously advocate for myself because physicians assume all my ailments stem from my size.”12. Queen Latifah

Queen Latifah has done a lot in her career. She currently stars on CBS’ drama series The Equalizer. She opened up about how her health affects her career choices in an interview with People. "Health is most important to me. It's not about losing weight or gaining weight. When I want to lose weight, or gain weight, I know how to do it in a healthy way. So if I have to do something that is going to be completely unhealthy for me, then that's not the job for me. Someone else should have that job that's already there… It's called No."
13. Amanda Brugel

During the COVID-19 pandemic, The Handmaid’s Tale star, Amanda Brugel began cooking for her family. She shared one of her favorite healthy recipes with Fashion Magazine. “I’m mid dinner prep which is my second gift from COVID-19, because I did not cook before this mess. I would dabble. Reheat. Definitely dine out. Or, wait for my amazing mother to show up with foods. But, tonight I am making Butter Chicken with garlic naan and I haven’t set anything on fire and it smells almost good.”
14. Emily Osment

Emily Osment is currently starring on CBS’ Young Sheldon, a spin-off of The Big Bang Theory. In 2018, the final season of her previous show, Young & Hungry was airing. During then, Osment opened up about her mental wellbeing in this Tweet. “Special shout out to mental health. Your own sanity is so much more important than anything else. Weird seeing this season’s young and hungry from over a year ago when I was 20lbs heavier and deeply sad. Get yourself right. Get yourself first. It all falls in line.”
15. Jenna Dewan

Jenna Dewan currently stars on ABC’s The Rookie. She opened up about her diet in an interview with People. “I consider eating healthy a way of life because I feel better, plain and simple,” she says. “I’m not a fan of dieting, which is why I choose to eat healthy most of the time. I keep it in balance, so I don’t have to crash diet. When I want to splurge I allow myself and don’t beat myself up — I just make a plan to eat extra healthy the next day or work out.”
16. Niecy Nash

Niecy Nash has starred in several TV shows. She currently stars on ABC’s The Rookie: Feds. Nash opened up about her self-care routine in an interview with Parade. “I do have a massage therapist come to me once a week. So that helps. Soaking in the tub with a glass of wine is always a good go-to. My children are always up for a good time. They make me laugh so much and so sometimes, if I can't get home to where they are, I'll send for them to come to where I am. And I purpose to laugh every day. I don't care what the day brings, I have to find a place for laughter and that really feeds my soul.”
17. Jaina Lee Ortiz

Jaina Lee Ortiz currently stars on Station 19. She opened up about some of her wellness routine in an interview with Hello! Magazine. Ortiz is an avid chef and shared some of her favorite recipes in the interview. “My cooking skills have leveled up tremendously. It’s hard to pick a favorite, so I’ll choose my top two –eggplant parm with roasted veggies and beyond meat patties with Sunja’s spicy kimchi.”
18. Danielle Savre

Danielle Savre plays a female fire-fighter on Station 19. She opened up about the importance of the role in an interview with StyleCaster. “I never saw a female firefighter on television before. Never. I watched ‘Ladder 49’ and ‘Backdraft.’ I loved those films. But never once did it cross my mind that I could do that. Now, when a teacher asks a little girl what she wants to be when she grows up, she can be anything. She can be a firefighter. She can be in the air force or in the marines. Girls can go to the moon now. This is doable.”
19. Miranda Cosgrove

In a 2016 interview with People, iCarly star Miranda Cosgrove talked about her journey to self-acceptance. “I’m at a place where I’m like really comfortable in my own skin,” says Cosgrove. “I don’t worry anywhere near as much as I used to. When I was younger, I would just stress about everything and I wanted everything to go well so badly that I didn’t really enjoy the moment enough.”
20. Sara Bareilles

Singer and Girls5eva star, Sara Bareilles, opened up about how she is taking care of her mental health and wellbeing on Instagram. “It has been a very low year for me with regard to my mental health, and I am also grateful that part of the reason I can touch my joy again is I finally got the help of some medication. It’s been a journey to try and pull up, and I found this year I needed more help. It is helping. I am relieved and feel more like myself- and I will find my way again and now it feels possible.”

No matter how busy Alessandra Ambrosio gets, she makes sure to make time for herself.  “I like waking up in the morning, doing my coffee, and then I have my diary next to my bed,” she told Forbes. “It’s a 5-minute diary - like a gratitude book. I just write a little bit about what I expect out of my day, what I’m grateful for, so just to start the day in a positive vibe. I have some things that I know how to calm me down, how to center, and how to be present in the moment that I do.”
3. Shalom Harlow

Shalom Harlow opened up about her health struggles in an interview with InStyle. “Deep chronic illness will incite a nervous breakdown,” Harlow says. “I did have complex PTSD from the level of infections in my body. There were moments of grace and surrender and a lot of moments of digging in my heels. My unhealed physical, mental, and emotional wounds had finally caught up with me.” Harlow says that she sought medical help for this, and got a fecal implant. “It was the first in a series of major medical interventions that began the journey that saved my life.”
4. Beverly Peele

Beverly Peele opened up about her life and career in an interview with Consciousness Magazine. She says that she is all about being comfortable in her body, even if she doesn’t have the look she had when she was first starting out her modeling career. “I like my weight. I’ve got a little bit of hips on me now; I’m a thickems as they call it, (laughs) or whatever the street name is (laughs). There’s a lot more to be on the lookout for.”
5. Tyra Banks

In 2013, Tyra Banks explained why she doesn’t believe in diets in an interview with Us Weekly. "To me, it's like, I lost weight a couple of years ago and that just changed the way I ate, it changed the way I thought. I actually got too thin because I have tunnel vision. So when they said this is what you have to do, I was too strict, and I realized I needed to cheat way more because it didn't look good. I didn't realize I was too thin until I started seeing pictures and I thought, 'Oh, I don't like that. That doesn't look good. I need some ass.’"
6. Niki Taylor

In 2012, model and CoverGirl spokeswoman, Niki Taylor, talked about her wellness secrets with Well + Good. She shared some ways that she stays in shape. "I wake up one hour before the kids to get on the treadmill or go for a long run outside. I've also found that drinking a lot of water really helps your skin looks better. These things also make you feel great."
7. Liya Kebede

In an interview with Essence, Liya Kebede talked about her wellness routine. She admits that she doesn’t always have time to workout on a regular basis. However, she says that she likes to practice yoga and meditation when she has time. “It's hard to have a routine, but I try to do yoga. And I go on YouTube every morning and pick a guided meditation depending on how much time I have. Then it’s like, ‘Meditation for Abundance?’ OK, well, how do I feel today?”
8. Rachel Peru

Rachel Peru opened up about how she gets modeling work in her 40s in an interview with The Mutton Club. “I think embracing my gray hair was a catalyst to how my self- confidence has grown which started the ball rolling. When I had modelling agencies saying they would like to represent me, that was a huge step in me thinking I could make it work and step out of my comfort zone. It’s a domino effect then, once you do one job and realise you didn’t make a complete fool of yourself every job gets easier to believe in myself.”
9. Miranda Kerr

Miranda Kerr works with trainer, Megan Roup, to help her stay in shape. The two even did an interview with Shape together. "I'll never forget my first workout with Megan," Kerr said. "I felt like every muscle in my body had been worked out, which was such a good feeling!"

11. Selita Ebanks

Selita Ebanks wants to spread information about racism in the fashion and beauty industry. She talked about this in an interview with Essence. “I am doing all this research about skin bleaching and brightening and all these things. There are so many things that can happen from just not knowing what is in the bottle. It’s very daunting, but I want to provide a platform for you all to come to and to educate yourselves and to read our amazing articles, and of course, a beauty brand, that you can feel good about that is not only natural, but it’s effective and it’s safe.”
12. Gisele Bundchen

Gisele Bundchen is open about her love of yoga. She even talked about this in her book, Lessons: My Path To A Meaningful Life. "[Yoga is] so serene that I can be in a state of meditation while I practice ... Whether it involves music or mantras or breath work or meditation, [yoga is] a powerful beautiful spiritual practice. Yoga gave me back my life."
13. Laeitia Casta

In 2015, Laetitia Casta broke down her workouts in an interview with Grazia Daily. “Sometimes I have to [work out]. I don’t want to like everybody, but I have to and I’m a human being. I’ve always been a sports person anyway since I was a young girl; it’s good for the brain. I go to run, I do gym sometimes, I swim... I’m not a freak out with that.”
14. Ines Rivero

In an interview with The Wordy Girl, Ines Rivero talked about her diet. She says that she eats healthy and avoids inflammatory foods. “Avoid all foods that come in packaging or already prepared. They’re usually high in sodium and have preservatives.  Go easy on the salt. Go easy on dairy. The idea is to keep inflammation to the minimum as most modern diseases such as autoimmune disease are usually triggered by inflammation.  I drink tons of dandelion tea which helps drain and it’s a natural anti inflammatory. I am also a fan of turmeric and ginger.”

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.

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.

But I don't feel like I'm betraying people. I've still got a--, I've still got boobs!"

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.”
10. Padma Lakshmi

Former Top Chef host, Padma Lakshmi talked about her workout routine in an interview with People. “I've been boxing for over 20 years on and off when my joints permit.

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.”
13. Kelly Ripa

In addition to hosting Live With Kelly and Mark for 20 years, Kelly Ripa also hosts Generation Gap. In 2015, she talked about her fitness routine with People.

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

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.

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.”

In her Instagram post, Sharvari is seen doing a strength training exercise. The Mayo Clinic says that strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories.

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

            
                She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “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. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial.

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health 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.”

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

            
                She Does Lunges

Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

            
                She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
