Anne Marie Kortright is breaking a sweat with Brooke Burke – in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the model shows off her amazing body during a sweat session at Burn fitness studio. “Sweat squad,” she captioned the post. How does the 42-year-old approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. Reading

One way Anne Marie likes to relax is by curling up with a good book. “Cozy afternoon,” she captioned a video of herself curled up with a book. 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 compared with people who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

2. Walking

Anne Marie walks her dog. “Best days when we take a walk with Oscar,” she captioned a post with her post. 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.

3. Kira Stokes Workouts

Anne Marie is a fan of Kira Stokes’ workouts. “Little change of scenery today for my workout 🏋️ Here are some snippets of one of my @kirastokesfit app workouts using her new sandbell. Let me tell you it was sooo good and wow do i feel it now!!! Like Kira says it’s the sneaky kind you don’t see it coming!!!” she captioned a video of her workout.

4. Strength Training

Anne Marie also does old school strength training, using machines and free weights. 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
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills

5. Heated Workouts

Anne Marie likes to turn up the heat when it comes time to exercise. “Getting that 🔥🔥🔥 to our favorite tune this am,” she captioned another post from Burn. The method, created by Maria Chase, uses LED red light therapy and Infrared heat during workouts.

Brooke Burke in Rainbow Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Morning Moves"

Here is everything you need to know about the ab move endorsed by the fitness queen.

Brooke Burke is revealing the secret to her abs – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the television personality-slash-exercise queen looks incredible in a rainbow two-piece as she gives her followers a tutorial on a key exercise. “Morning moves 💛🧡💜 @brookeburkebody #stretch #yoga,” she captioned the post with her followers. What is the exact exercise that helped Brooke achieve her killer six-pack? Here is everything you need to know about her “morning moves.”


1. Brooke’s Move Is a Variation of the Side Crunch

Side,CrunchShutterstock

In the video, Brooke lays on her side, propping herself up on her arm with her legs bent and does “what is essentially a variation of a side crunch,” says Philadelphia-based trainer Kendra Gamble of HIT Fitness. The low impact exercise is a great way to strengthen the entire tummy.

2. Here’s How to Do It

Brooke.Burke.2Brooke Burke/Instagram

“So here’s what it is going to look like,” Brooke says in the clip. “You are going to crunch and straighten and crunch,” she says, recommending “15 on each leg.” She adds: “Point your toes and reach, make sure you are engaging your core.”

3. What Muscles Does it Work?

Brooke.Burke.3Brooke Burke/Instagram

What muscles does it work? “The way she’s doing it specifically works the internal and external obliques, which are core muscles,” says Gamble. She does note that side crunches aren’t going to be the miracle move to get rid of love handles. “Only diet does that,” she reminds. “You can’t spot reduce fat.”

4. Who Should Do the Exercise

Brooke.BurkeBrooke Burke/Instagram

Gamble says it is a great exercise for beginners, “who don’t work out much,” because it can help them learn how to activate their core to get stronger core muscles and help them understand what’s really working. However, she wouldn’t recommend side crunches to a person with a spinal injury like a herniated disc.

5. Why Working Out in the Morning Is a Good Idea

As for the early morning workout, Brooke is definitely onto something. A 2023 study published in the journal Obesity found that early morning sweat sessions — between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. — could help with weight loss. According to their research, people who did moderate to vigorous exercise in the morning had lower body mass indexes than people who exercised at midday or in the evening. “Working out in the morning is beneficial because you are rested and refreshed and your body is full of energy,” Gamble adds. “If you work out in the morning it sets the tone for the day giving you more energy.” And, “most people when they save a workout for after work they end up not doing it because they are tired.”

4. Cooking Her Own Healthy Meals

Brooke Wells is getting her sweat on – in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the CrossFit stunner shows off her amazing figure in a two-piece exercise set while lifting heavy weights. “training diaries 🏋🏻♀️📔xoxo,” she captioned the Instagram video. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

She Eats Over 3,000 Calories Per Day

Wells has gradually increased her carb intake over the years which has improved her performance. "It's a lot of food, over 3,000 calories," she told Business Insider. Here is what she eats in a day:

  • Breakfast before morning training: large bowl of oatmeal with protein powder and fruit
  • Lunch: rice, sweet potato, and chicken
  • Snacks during afternoon training breaks: overnight oats, apple sauce pouches, and bananas
  • During training: carbs shakes
  • Dinner: chicken or steak with sweet potato or rice
  • Before bed: bagel with jelly or oatmeal

Macro Counting

Wells tracks her macros. She aims for 155 grams of protein, 440 grams of carbs, and 70 grams of fat each day in the lead-up to competition. "I've been counting macros for probably the last five years but I feel like the numbers just keep getting higher, my carbs just go up each year," she said. "I definitely don't think I was eating enough carbs four years ago and my performance seems to be better as I eat more."

She Eats Enough Crabs So She Doesn't Cheat As Much

Because Brooke eats enough carbs she doesn’t go to extremes with cheat meals. "Recently, when I have a cheat meal or whatever, I don't go overboard because I don't feel like I need to anymore, I don't have as many cravings because I'm eating the appropriate amount of food," she said. "I would say my relationship with food's pretty good. I'm not scared to eat sweets or anything."

Saunas and Ice Baths

She is also a fan of saunas and ice baths for recovery. There is limited research supporting the benefits of cold plunges, which may include easing sore muscles, bringing body temperature down, increased focus, improved sleep, and decreased inflammation, per the Cleveland Clinic. However, a 2021 study found that cold water immersion therapy promotes basic post-sport recovery.

Sleep

Sleep is a key part of her recovery. Wells is even an ambassador for Eight Sleep, a temperature controlled mattress that also gives users sleep data. She maintains that it helps her sleep more deeply and for longer. What are the health benefits of sleep? According to the Sleep Foundation, getting enough z’s is a mood booster, promotes heart health, regulates blood sugar, improves mental function, restores your immune system, helps relieve stress, and aids in weight loss.

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.”

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
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills

Prioritizing Digestion and Getting Blood Work Done

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.”

Hiking

Mariana enjoys hiking. “Elevation therapy,” she captioned a post from one of her fitness adventures. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance
  • Improving your heart health
  • Decreasing the risk of some respiratory issues

Pilates

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.

Emsculpt NEO

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.
