Kelly Reilly plays Beth Dutton on Yellowstone. She took The Telegraph through a typical day in her life. In it, she shared some of her favorite exercises.

2. Piper Perabo

New,York,,Ny,-,April,29,,2019:,Piper,Perabo,WearingShutterstock

Piper Perabo plays Summer Higgins on Yellowstone. She shared some of her hair and skincare secrets with Into The Gloss. “In my off time, I really go crazy low-maintenance. I rinse my hair with apple cider vinegar, and it takes all the product out. I’ll stop dyeing my hair, and my roots come out. I just try and give my body a break: just wash your face, and put on some sunscreen.”

3. Jeremy Renner

Los,Angeles,-,Apr,22:,Jeremy,Renner,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Jeremy Renner plays the lead role of Mike McClusky on Mayor of Kingstown. He also plays Hawkeye in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Renner has to stay in shape to play that role, and shared some of his tips with Men’s Health. “I’ll take something called ‘Liquid IV’ which has potassium, and electrolytes and things like that. So you only need one of those, and it’s worth like four [water bottles].”

4. Hassie Harrison

Los,Angeles,-,Jul,21:,Hassie,Harrison,At,The,11thShutterstock

Hassie Harrison plays Laramie on Yellowstone. She shared her secrets for self-confidence with Modeliste. “I think the root of empowerment is liking and accepting, all of yourself. From there, you can feel confident about who you are and what you bring to the table. Taking it a step further, you learn how to advocate for yourself and make better choices. Once you master that, you can extend that to advocating for others within your personal and professional community and the world at large. That’s what empowerment means to me…so far. I’m sure I will expand on that as I get older and gain more life experience.”

5. Faith Hill

Las,Vegas,,Nv,-,April,02,,2017:,Faith,Hill,AtShutterstock

Faith Hill played Margaret Dutton on the miniseries, 1883. She tells New Beauty that she and her husband, Tim McGraw, believe in having a strong work ethic, and have taught their daughters that. “It is very important to us as a family, and the girls have seen that. The one thing we stress is that you don’t get things handed to you on a silver platter—you have to work for the things you want. They know it takes hard work. You don’t just arrive.”

6. Tim McGraw

Las,Vegas,,Nv,-,April,2,,2017:,Tim,Mcgraw,AtShutterstock

Tim McGraw played James Dillard Dutton on 1883. The singer is open about his weight loss process, and talked about it on Instagram. He wrote in this post’s caption, “The goal is to get to a place where you can say, without restriction, I accept where I am today. I will start from here.

I’m not big on looking back. I tend to look forward, to focus on tomorrow. To my mind, forgiveness and letting go doesn’t mean you suddenly have to love yourself; it’s just about accepting that you are a work in progress, not a finished product.”

7. LaMonica Garrett

LaMonica Garrett played Thomas on 1883 and Tucker on Special Ops: Lioness. He shared the secrets behind his impressive six-pack to Muscle and Fitness. “It will be different each day. If I’m doing legs, I’ll do core. If I’m doing back, I’ll work my core another way. If I’m doing chest, I’ll do core another way, so just something with core every day, and diet. You know, abs, or most of it is nutrition in the kitchen, so I just have to modify the way I eat and it helps.”

8. Jennifer Ehle

Los,Angeles,-,Dec,02:,Jennifer,Ehle,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Jennifer Ehle played Sister Mary on 1923, and Mason on Special Ops: Lioness. She shared what she wants the industry to include more of to Collider. “Intimacy coordinators. That would have made a huge difference to my 90s. That is an extraordinary thing. We now have a number on our SAG card to call if we feel like something needs to be shared. The communication, the dialogue, the sense of how deep this goes in all walks of life, how deep this problem goes, how whenever there's a discrepancy of power people are vulnerable to abuse. I think the awareness of that globally is huge.”

9. Cole Hauser

Los,Angeles,-,May,30:,Cole,Hauser,At,The,"yellowstone"Shutterstock

Cole Hauser plays Rip Wheeler on Yellowstone. He tells People that he makes sure to stay in shape for the role. Hauser said that he’s changing his approach to fitness.

You can pull energy from them while you do your exercises."

11. Luke Grimes

Los,Angeles,-,May,30:,Luke,Grimes,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Luke Grimes plays leading role Kayce Dutton on Yellowstone.

Emma Laird plays Iris on Mayor Of Kingstown. Before acting, Laird was modeling, and developed an eating disorder. She told Hungertv.com that picking up acting helped her get through this. “I was in New York about five years ago, and I had a really bad eating disorder. I was slowly coming out of that and I gained a bit of weight, and then my agents told me to lose weight again. I was like, ‘I can’t do this any more,’” she recalls. “So then, in New York, and not able to get work because I was ‘too fat’, I had a minute to switch off. So I found this acting school and I went to an open day, and this guy said, ‘Yeah there’s a spot on this two-month course, but it starts tomorrow.’ So I had to move out of this model apartment that day because I couldn’t stay there any more. I’ve never really properly thought about this, or said this, but that acting course… That course really saved me. I went through some really awful shit in the modelling world around that time, and going to those classes and being able to fall in love with something really saved my life.”

16. Zoe Saldana

London,,United,Kingdom,-,December,04,,2022:,Zoe,Saldana,AttendsShutterstock

Zoe Saldana plays the leading role of Joe on Special Ops: Lioness. She talked about how she approaches eating in an interview with Byrdie. “I try to be balanced. I don’t like hearing, ‘Oh, I’m doing this diet, or I’m doing that diet.’ I like when people use words like ‘my lifestyle.’ When we use the word ‘diet,’ we’re preparing ourselves for a big sacrifice that we know, the older we get, we’re going to be too weak to fulfill. We just end up crashing and defeating ourselves. So I like telling myself that I’m not doing a diet, that this is my lifestyle, and I’m choosing to have a balanced meal. I don’t like having zero carbs or all protein. I like getting all the nutrition that my body needs so that it can heal itself naturally.”

17. Jill Wagner

Los,Angeles,-,Jul,26:,Jill,Wagner,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Jill Wagner plays Bobby on Special Ops: Lioness. She revealed some of the charities and causes she supports to My Devotional Thoughts. “I support LLS-Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. They do so many good things to support people with cancer and help cure all blood cancers. I also love an organization called The Gentle Barn. The Gentle Barn rescues animals from severe abuse and neglect who are too old, sick, lame, or scared to be adopted into homes. We are a sanctuary to horses, donkeys, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, turkeys, chickens, llamas, peacocks, emus, cats and dogs. Once rehabilitated, the animals help us give hope and inspiration to children with the same stories.”

18. Nicole Kidman

Los,Angeles,-,Apr,18:,Nicole,Kidman,Arrives,For,ìtheShutterstock

Nicole Kidman plays Kaitlyn Meade on Special Ops: Lioness. She shared some of her skincare secrets with Forbes. Kidman revealed that sunscreen is a big part of her routine. “As someone with very fair skin, I'm very serious about sun protection and have been since I was a kid. I'm so grateful my parents were serious about sun protection when I was a child! Growing up in Australia, we spent so much time at the beach, my parents were always very serious about keeping my skin safe from the sun.”

19. Dave Annable

Los,Angeles,-,Jan,18:,Dave,Annable,At,The,ParamountShutterstock

In an interview with Deadline, he supported the strikes in the entertainment industry. “I’m part of the union and I’m happy to support the union. There are so many crew members and folks that are outta work, that are living paycheck to paycheck right now. It would be lovely to get back to work and get this industry moving again. That being said, it needs to be updated. Times change, things change. Obviously our whole business is changing. In the 20 years I’ve been doing this, it’s sort of night and day how much it’s changed. All of the deals need to reflect that.”

20. Laysla De Oliveira

Laysla De Oliveira Celebrity Sightings In New York City - September 09, 2023GC Images/Getty Images

Laysla De Oliveira plays Cruz Manuelos on Special Ops: Lioness. She shared how she got in shape for the role to Toronto Life. “I was lucky to work with a former Navy Seal named Jared Shaw who was basically responsible for turning me into a badass. Every day, we did an hour of strength training, an hour of weapons training and an hour of stunt training. Before that even started, I did hand-to-hand combat at this gym the studio sent me to in L.A. A lot of rappers go to the same gym, so I ended up training with Wiz Khalifa.”

Matthew McConaughey played Detective Rust Cole in the first season. He shared some of his workout tips in an interview. “Like any mammal, we’re always gonna make it back home. I like to run 20 minutes out, turn around, and drop and do 20 pushups 10 times during the run back.”

2. Rachel McAdams

New,York,,Ny,-,April,24:,Actress,Rachel,Mcadams,AttendsShutterstock

Rachel McAdams played Detective Ani Bezzerides in the second season. She shared with Trainforher.com that she is conscious of what she puts in her body. “I eat organic and I eat a lot of greens and seeds. I’ve always been conscious of what I put in my body and I’m finding it so much easier now to eat healthily on the go. I think there are a lot more tasty options.”

3. Michelle Monaghan

Nashville,-,Jun,5:,Michelle,Monaghan,Attends,The,2019,CmtShutterstock

Michelle Monaghan played Maggie Hart on the first season. She shared her fitness secrets with Shape Magazine. "I hike in the morning if I can, after I drop the kids off at school. If not, I'll go for a run. Typically, I'll do 30 minutes, which is a three-mile run for me. I started doing Pilates, too, and it's really challenging. I find that it's a good balance for my running, which makes my muscles tight. Pilates loosens me up. I also love SoulCycle. I played a Spin instructor in a movie, and at the time I thought, There's no way I'm getting on a bike. But SoulCycle had just opened in L.A., so I went with friends. The lights were off, candles were burning, and we were hooked. It's like church!”

4. Alexandra Daddario

Los,Angeles,-,Nov,12:,Alexandra,Daddario,Arrives,For,Baby2babyShutterstock

Alexandra Daddario played Lisa Tragnetti on the first season. She works with trainer Patrick Murphy to help her stay in shape. “Working out with Patrick makes me feel more confident in everyday life. I feel stronger and healthier — even more so than I did in my 20s,” Daddario told Women’s Health. “My back doesn’t hurt anymore, my posture is better — his approach is to keep you feeling good and your joints working. Looking stronger is just a bonus.”

5. Lili Simmons

Los,Angeles,-,Jan,6:,Lili,Simmons,At,The,2019Shutterstock

Lili Simmons played the recurring role of Beth in the show’s first season. She shared her fitness secrets with Coveteur. “I have a trainer. I do weight-lifting mixed with a little bit of cardio. He kicks my ass. I love it! I couldn’t imagine life without it. I think women are scared of looking too muscular and I think that’s some bullshit. You still have a woman’s body. Muscle is muscle, and it’s good to be strong. I think it’s the fountain of youth to be honest.”

6. Colin Farrell

Los,Angeles,,Usa.,July,28,,2022:,Colin,Farrell,At,TheShutterstock

Colin Farrell played Detective Ray Velcoro on the second season. He talked about his sobriety to Variety. “I had suspicions, before I got sober, of how painful life could be. But I had no ability to hold that without being self-destructive and without living in it. I don’t live in that now. I feel these things that we’re talking about, at times. And I consider life greatly at times. And other times, I’m as frivolous as I was when I was 6 years old on a good day.”

7. Vince Vaughn

Vince,Vaughn,Attends,"fighting,With,My,Family",Los,Angeles,TastemakerShutterstock

Vince Vaughn played Frank Seymon on the show’s second season. He talked about working in Hollywood to Drafthouse.com. “Nowadays it feels easier to make these comedies – people are more supportive in allowing it. Because you’re dealing with subject matter and topics that are adult-driven, you want to have that freedom to think and act like adults too.”

Kelly Reilly played Jordan Seymon in the show’s second season. She did a “Day On A Plate” interview with The Telegraph. “We have a huge vegetable garden and I love working on it when I've got time off. Pick out a butternut squash for dinner.

9. Taylor Kitsch

Los,Angeles,-,Jun,22:,Taylor,Kitsch,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Taylor Kitsch played Officer Paul Woodrugh on the second season. He shared his training secrets in an interview. “Day to day, it’s just maintenance. When I’m busy, I’ll try to work out in the morning, just fit what I can in. I keep it high-intensity with training and weights – no rest, I’ll just fuckin’ bang it out. I try to do it hard and fast. Right now I’ve changed it all, I’m doing a lot of bodyweight stuff. But a lot of what your body looks like comes down to what you eat when you can’t work out as much as you’d like.”

10. Carmen Ejogo

Carmen Ejogo played Amelia Reardon on the third season. She opened up about working in Hollywood and dealing with stereotypes to The Guardian. “You can start feeling like you’re the representative of all kinds of things – woman, age bracket, race – and to be able to liberate myself from all those shackles from time to time and just do what feels exciting to me in any given moment is something I’ve promised myself to do more of.”

11. Abigail Spencer

Lucy Hale played the role of Aria Montgomery for the show’s entire run. She talked about her fitness secrets in an interview with People. Hale says that she likes to workout with others. “[My trainer’s] the one who’s forcing me to try pull-ups, so every couple of days we’ll try to do more,” Hale says. “But I also like group fitness. I think that’s a way you can see your friends and break a sweat but still have a good time. I do things like Soul Cycle and Training Mate. I love to hike.”

2. Shay Mitchell

Los,Angeles,-,Jul,9:,Shay,Mitchell,At,The,BarbieShutterstock

Shay Mitchell played the main character of Emily Fields for the entire series. In an interview with Byrdie, she talked about how she approaches diet and exercise.

But I have my certain favourite things with me all the time when I'm on set.”

3. Ashley Benson

Los,Angeles,-,Apr,26:,Ashley,Benson,At,The,LoveShutterstock

Ashley Benson starred as Hanna Marin for the entire show. She shared her go-to workout with Health Magazine. “Probably squats — and not for my butt but for my legs. We usually do circuit training, so I’ll do 25 squats, then I’ll run back and forth, and then I’ll do lunges to the other side of the gym both ways, run, then squats. I can’t move for days!”

4. Troian Bellisario

Troian Bellisario played the main character of Spencer Hastings on the show. She shared her approach to health and wellness with The Cut. "Just [listen] to your body." Bellisario said. "It’s a daily practice, and it takes a lot of quiet and stillness...to listen to what it needs for nourishment and to listen when it’s thirsty. Listen when [your body] wants to stretch its legs and walk out in the sunshine, and when it needs a day to sit on the couch."

5. Janel Parrish

Los,Angeles,-,Aug,13:,Janel,Parrish,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Janel Parrish played Mona Vanderwaal on the show. She tells E! News that she believes in starting her day with a positive affirmation. “Your day begins with what you tell yourself,” she explains. “If you start the day by believing it's going to be a good day, you put yourself in that mindset. If you start the day in a negative place, you're setting yourself up for failure”

6. Sasha Pieterse

Los,Angeles,-,Mar,27:,Sasha,Pieterse,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Sasha Pieterse played Alison DiLaurentis on the show. She has PCOS, and wants to not only raise awareness about it, but also encourage people to see doctors for things that bother them. “There are all these things that seem somewhat normal sometimes depending on your lifestyle, but I feel like you have to just go and get it checked,” she told UsWeekly. “If you have a hormone imbalance, it can definitely be PCOS and that can lead to ovarian cancer and breast cancer and thyroid issues and many things later that could’ve been avoided. More than half of women have it and they don’t even know. It really is a huge issue that I want to share and hopefully help even one person deal with it.

7. Torrey DeVito

Torrey DeVito played the recurring role of Melissa Hastings. DeVito is a vegan, and talked about this to The Chicago Sun Times. “I’m vegan in my fashion and vegetarian in my food.

Los,Angeles,-,Jan,13:,Amanda,Schull,At,The,HallmarkShutterstock

Amanda Schull played the recurring role of Meredith Sorenson. She shared her fitness secrets with RealStyleNetwork.com. “I try to carve a little time for exercise every day. Sometimes that is only 45 minutes of mat exercises, other days I have time to do a structured class like ballet or barre class. If I have a really early call time and don’t have a chance to exercise before work, I will bring a TheraBand to set to do strengthening exercises between scenes.”

9. Tammin Sursok

Los,Angeles,-,Jan,03:,Tammin,Sursok,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Tammin Sursok played the recurring character, Jenna Marshall. She tells WHO that her exercise goes in cycles. "At the beginning of our cycles, we're craving new exciting workouts, so in that week I try to change it up. Whether it’s in class activities or over an app, I focus on workouts that are new to me. In the middle of the month is when our energy peaks so that is when I optimise high-intensity HIIT workouts. Then near the end my body wants to slow down so that when I incorporate yoga, Pilates and long walks."

10. Lesley Fera

Lesley Fera played the recurring role of Veronica Hastings for all seven seasons. Fera is a host on the Pretty Little Wine Moms podcast, and she tells Glitter Magazine that she gave her revenue from that to charity. “We love being able to donate to charities that are near and dear to our hearts.

Bianca Lawson played Maya St. Germain on the first three seasons. She shared some of her favorite workouts with ReflectBeauty.com. “I’m someone that needs to move my body for mental health.

12. Ian Harding

Los,Angeles,-,Nov,04:,Ian,Harding,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Ian Harding played Ezra Fitz for the entire series. He talked about how he got the role to Ability Magazine. “I was very sort of lucky; not sort of, I was extremely lucky. It was the first audition for a lead in a TV show that I went to in Los Angeles. And my manager, who I still work with to this day, said, ‘Look, this is all just about getting practice. You know this already, but it’s kind of a stretch for you, and it’s your first pilot audition. Just go in, have fun, and learn how to audition.’ And because I didn’t have the pressure of needing to get the job, I went in and just messed around. And they were like, ‘Yeah, this is great.’”

13. Tyler Blackburn

Tyler Blackburn played Caleb Rivers on the show. He also stars on Roswell, and had to step back from the show to take care of his mental health. Blackburn wrote on Twitter, “I had to step down from filming season 4 and every single person in the cast and crew, as well as everyone at @warnerbros and @TheCW showed so much compassion. I am forever grateful to the human beings that made up this show.”

Currently, I've been working hard on sticking to a low-carb diet of protein and veggies. Getting enough sleep is also important, but tough with a 3-year-old. Sometimes I try and sneak in a nap during quiet time. Lastly, mental health is something I focus on. I love journaling, taking time to focus on myself and what I want to accomplish in the future.”

Los,Angeles,-,Feb,22:,Sarah,Lancaster,At,The,EltonShutterstock

Vanessa Marcil starred in Bad Tutor.

Rachael Leigh Cook starred in the film Left To Die. She shared her approach to acting and success in an interview with Us Weekly. “So many other things happen by the time that, if you’re me anyway, it dawns on you. I don’t really relate to people who have a movie come out and they’re like, ‘I’ve arrived!’ It’s just not how I ever felt. And by the time I sort of felt like, oh snap things are kind of happening, it was more of a, ‘Oh shoot, things were happening and I immediately felt like I was in catch up mode. Do better mode. You’re not good enough mode.’”

Los,Angeles,-,Oct,05:,Shannen,Doherty,Arrives,To,TheShutterstock

Honestly, I don't, but I try. And I know I will fail at some things, but that's okay. You can't win unless you swing, right?"

Meghan Ory starred in The Haunting of Sorority Row. In an interview with The Bulletin, Ory says that she only takes roles she believes in. “It’s really weird, and it’s funny because I have to be careful when I take a job because if I don’t believe in the project, I can’t do it.

Amanda Schull has starred in the Lifetime movies Imaginary Friend and Hunt For The Labyrinth Killer. She told Women’s Running that she likes to dance and run to stay in shape. “I still love ballet. I try to take classes when I can, it’s cathartic for me, and something my body continues to crave. I don’t run as much as I would like because of a back-injury. When I do run, I have to be very cautious about my posture. It’s quite frustrating that I can’t run more often because my husband is an avid runner, and even completed his first marathon last year at 2:51:31!”

So keep messaging me…. and I'll keep motivating you, deal?”

3. Tiffani Theissen

Tiffani Theissen joined the show as Valerie Malone in season five. She shared her approach to exercise with SELF. “I’ve always been someone who doesn’t like doing the same thing every day, so I like to change my workouts up. I do strength training and HIIT classes Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and then I do mat Pilates on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On the weekends I usually go hiking. In California we have such great hikes.”

4. Brian Austin Green

Brian Austin Green played David Silver on the show. Green has both ulcerative colitis and vertigo, and has dealt with stroke-like symptoms in the past. In an interview with ABC News, he shared his advice for others going through similar things. “Go see multiple people. Get opinions from a few different places. You have to know that there will absolutely be a light at the end of this tunnel."

5. Jason Priestley

Jason Priestley played Brandon Walsh on the show. He supports the Breakfast Club of Canada, which helps people access healthy breakfast options. Priesltey encouraged others to support and revealed how they could do so in an interview. “When I heard that one in four kids here in Canada have problems having access to healthy food in the morning, I felt like getting the word out about the Buy a Cup Give a Cup program was the right thing to do. It’s such an easy way for Canadians to give to this program and to give to the Breakfast Club of Canada.”

6. Hilary Swank

Before winning two Oscars, Hilary Swank appeared as Carly Reynolds in season eight. She revealed to Man Repeller that she makes smoothies in the morning. “I use kale, spinach, blueberries, flax, chia and green — like a supergreen. The bottle has to say supergreen! I also use cacao and a frozen banana. And I never put an avocado in because that makes me gag. I have this every morning whether or not I work out because I don’t think I get enough vegetables or fruit in otherwise. I only use a handful — as much as I can eat because who eats ten apples? Nobody.”

7. Kathleen Robertson

Kathleen Robertson played Clare Arnold on the show. She talked about her career in an interview with Canadian Living. Robertson says that she is working on not getting ahead of herself and thinking in the present. "It's something I have to work on as I get older. When good stuff happens to me, my natural instinct is to say, ‘OK, cool,' and move onto the next thing.”

8. Ian Ziering

Ian Ziering played Steve Sanders for the entire series. He also is known for his role in the Sharknado film series, and shared how he stays in shape for those films to People. “Leg day is my favorite day,” Ziering said. “You can’t have a thorough leg workout without feeling completely spent. It’s a challenge, but the benefits of maintain muscle mass on my legs is important because, as the biggest muscle group in the body, it also helps me keep the proper body composition in terms of fat to muscle ratio.”

9. Vanessa Marcil

Vanessa Marcil played Gina Kincaid on the final two seasons. She talked about her approach to wellness in the caption of this Instagram post. “Being a workaholic for 24 years, the most important parts of health for ME aren’t working out, or what I eat, or whether I drink water,” she wrote. “But for ME it’s balancing my hormones with an endocrinologist, weekly anger release therapy, sleep, taking risks that scare me, laughter & having balance in my life with no shame allowed.”

10. Gabrielle Carteris

Gabrielle Carteris played Andrea Zuckerman on the show. She was previously the president of SAG-AFTRA. Carteris talked about her desire for more diverse stories in an interview with The Los Angeles Times. “One of my real interests is to work on inclusivity — looking at diversity and gender equity. That for me, being a woman, is really important. With our leadership, our top three officers are women, which is not something you see in unions around the country or in our industry. I think it’s a testament to our members and to our work that we are about inclusion.”

11. Cress Williams

Cress Williams played the recurring role of D’Shawn Hardell from seasons four to five. He also appeared as the lead character in the show Black Lightning, and shared how he got in shape for the role to Men’s Health. “From the moment I turned 39, 40, I really turned a corner and became a person who really enjoys working out. When I don’t get a chance to, I miss it. I also just recognized that it would give me career longevity if I kept myself in the best shape I could possibly be in. I do have my limitations, I have a bad knee and stuff like that. But I do the best I can. So it was already something that was in my routine. And getting ready for the show, I just sort of ramped things up to get more strength. Then my stunt double, who has become a really good friend, he started coming over and helping me with the fight aspects of it.”

Leonie Hanne is living her best life in Thailand – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the German model flaunts her fantastic figure in a $750 Missoni bathing suit while enjoying a boating day in the tropics. “She dreamed of a tropical adventure 🦋,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Stunning,” commented one of her followers. ”So beautiful,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Coffee

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

Pilates

Leonie does Pilates at the super exclusive London studio Pilates in the Clouds. 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.

At-Home Workouts

Leonie tries to get a workout in daily, preferably in the morning. I still try to get up early to maintain a sense of routine. I start every day with a quick at-home workout and a homemade acai bowl, before starting work on emails and content creation. I’ve been getting really into TikTok lately, it’s funny and keeps me feeling energised!” she told Arcadia.

Community

It takes a village, according to Leonie. “Community is key! The people you surround yourself with are more important than ever, as we are all trying to find ways to stay connected without being physically present. Speaking to people either on the phone or through social media can shift your mindset and motivation more than ever before,” she says.

Small, Healthy Habits

Leonie focuses on maintaining small, healthy habits. “Do something every day that brings you joy. Even if that means having something small to look forward to, like having your favourite snacks around the house or changing into an outfit that makes you feel good about yourself,” she says.

She Doesn't Go Under the Knife

Sophie claims she hasn’t gone under the knife. “It’s your own body, you can do what you want to,” she told Grazia, weighing in on the show’s reputation for girls getting work done. “I wouldn’t have surgery myself; I don’t want it. I’ve got such a low pain tolerance as well; I’d be squirming around.”

She Gets Her Steps In

Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Sophie loves paddle boarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and cardio. Water sports can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140-pound male and 436 calories for a female of the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

She Skis

When Sophie hits the mountains, she throws on a pair of skis. “Ski club,” she captioned a photo. Research has linked downhill skiing to several health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, the prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress, and the occurrence of memory deficits decline.

She Loves Group Fitness

“You’ve got to be body confident,” Sophie told Grazia. One of her favorite sweat methods? Group fitness. “A few gym classes can’t hurt,” she said.

She Goes Snorkeling

On her recent Maldives vacation, Sophie and Josh snorkeled in the crystal clear water. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Tammy Hembrow is a fitness influencer and expert. She has her own app, called Tammy Fit. Hembrow has a lot of challenges on her app. Recently, she advertised a challenge with a workout video on Instagram. Hembrow captioned the post, “We are 3 days into our first @tammyfitapp challenge of the year & I am more motivated than everrrrr. (Sign ups are still open if you haven’t joined yet - there’s still time to catch up!! - link in bio). Soooo happy seeing so many of my girlies (and guys) in this challenge doing it with me!! And I CANNOT wait to see everyone’s results at the end of the 8 weeks. We got thissss 💪🏼”

She Does Pulldowns

Hembrow is seen doing pulldowns in her Instagram video. Piedmont reports that pulldowns have a lot of benefits. “The lat pulldown is a fantastic exercise for strengthening the latissimus dorsi muscle, the broadest muscle in your back. This muscle promotes good posture and spinal stability. Form is crucial when performing a lat pulldown to prevent injury and reap the best results.”

She Lifts Weights

Hembrow is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that using weights to workout has a lot of benefits. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

She Tracks Her Meals

Hembrow likes to track her meals on her app. She talked about the benefits of this in the caption of this “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. “Make sure to take advantage of the calorie/macro tracking features in the @tammyfitapp during this challenge guys. It can be really helpful in reaching specific goals quicker. And it also can help educate you on your food choices when it comes to nutrition, ratios, hidden calories, overeating or under eating etc. honestly I’d recommend any beginner try it out just to get a good feel for how you’re fuelling your body!! I feel like when people think of ‘meal tracking’ it can be seen as something that seems restrictive or something only bodybuilders do. When in reality it can be such a helpful tool and you can learn things that will actually encourage long term habits 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

She Loves Bananas

Hembrow is seen enjoying bananas in her “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that bananas have a lot of benefits. “A single medium-sized banana offers about 32 mg of the mineral magnesium, which fulfills around 8% to 10% of your daily magnesium requirement. Magnesium is involved in many processes in your body, including: Blood pressure. Blood sugar levels. Building proteins. Maintaining bone. Muscle function. Nerve function.”

She Loves Cottage Cheese

Hembrow is seen enjoying her bananas with cottage cheese in the previous Instagram video. Cottage cheese is very healthy. UCLA Health reports, “Cottage cheese’s protein content and low calories make it an ideal food for weight management. Research shows that whether you are trying to lose weight or reduce your risk of overweight or obesity, eating a high-protein diet can help you feel full and satisfied for longer.”
