Ayesha Curry is heating up Jamaica in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the wife of NBA powerhouse Stephen Curry shows off her amazingly fit figure in a bathing suit while vacationing on the tropical island. “Grounding,” she captioned the Instagram post with her millions of followers. “Ayesha out living her best life,” one of them commented. “Love this for you,” added another. How does the cookbook author and lifestyle entrepreneur approach health and fitness? Celebwell rounded up her top lifestyle habits.


1. Daily Exercise

Ayesha discussed her approach to exercise with Harper’s Bazaar’s Food Diaries. “Fitness wasn’t really a part of my lifestyle and I’d say the past year and a half—post having all of my kids—it’s really become a staple for me and it helps me have mental clarity. I feel like I’m in the best shape of my life,” she said. “I find that I’m happier when I work out. And so I do try to work out at least five days a week.”

2. 80/20 Eating

“These past two years, since I turned 30, I've started to consider how food can really make a difference in the way that I feel and look. My career is in food and I'm a firm believer in eating what you love. I'm not a dieter. For me, it was really about learning how to exercise portion control and living that 80/20 life,” Ayesha dished to Women's Health.

3. Activity Trackers

Ayesha tracks her activity with a Fitbit Versa 2, a tool that helped her lose 35 pounds. "My Fitbit truly helped me figure out my health and wellness and navigate through this journey."

4. Hydration

Ayesha consumes a lot of liquids. "Typically, I have a glass of hot water with some lemon in it," she told Women’s Health. "I love it; it warms me up and makes me feel good." She follows it up with lots of fluids throughout the day, in order to keep herself from snacking. "I usually sip on water or herbal tea until dinnertime," she told Women’s Health. "I'm an herbal tea girl. I love anything with lavender and chamomile."

5. Healthy Fats

Ayesha infuses her coffee with healthy fats. "I do a version of a bulletproof coffee with a little bit of ghee and a little bit of MCT oil," she added to Women’s Health.

6. Cheat Meals

Ayesha loves to cook, so allows herself a cheat meal once a week. "I always have a day a week where I'm in the kitchen and just preparing something new and fun and indulgent," she told Women’s Health. "It really works for me; I always have that day to look forward to. It's the best day ever every single week."

7. Mixing Up Workouts

"I have to keep my workouts exciting and fresh and different," Ayesha told Women’s Health about exercise. "Sometimes it's biking or high-intensity interval training, others it's a jump rope workout or a workout on the Fitbit app."

Jessica Oyelowo is living it up in Costa Rica in her swimsuit. In a recent social media post the actress and screenwriter poses with her husband, David Oyelowo, while taking a swim in the tropics, wowing her followers. “You are really so beautiful,” commented one of them. “Great photobomb!!” added another. How does the Lawmen: Bass Reeves star maintain her amazing body? Celebwell rounded up her top health habits.


1. She Does Weight Training

Jessica relies on good ol’ weight and strength training to stay in shape. She shared a video of her workout on instagram and it involved a variety of free weight and body weight exercises – all of which can be done at home with very little equipment.

2. She Hikes

Jessica is an avid hiker. “This is how I feel about the stunning @grandcanyonnps. Breathe in the air and breathe out joy! @serenityhelicopters with the brilliant human Mad Dog as our pilot flew us in perfect style over and into The Grandest of Canyons. Mad love Mad Dog. #livingthedream #beautifulplace,” she captioned a post.

3. She Drinks Tea

Jessica loves a good cut of tea. “Tea tutorial!!” she captioned a post. “Whenever I make tea for anyone who is not a Brit they take a taste and say ‘Wow! This is amazing! How do you make it like this!’ Dearest darling non Brits, here is your ultimate builder’s tea tutorial and for all the Brits you can feel nice and smug that you already knew this 😊 Be nice and send this to anyone who needs these tea tips. Their lives will be so much better for having a proper cuppa.”

4. She Swims

Jessica enjoys swimming. 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.

5. She Has A Supportive Marriage

Oyelowo has a lot of support from her husband. She opened up about their marriage in this post on Instagram. Oyelowo wrote, “Life can hit you hard from all the angles so we try really hard to love and support each other no matter what levels of crazy are going on around us or even because of us 😂He lifts me up and I lift him up. Then life becomes a beautiful dance.”

6. She Wants To Set A Good Example

Praying,Hands,With,Faith,In,Religion,And,Belief,In,GodShutterstock

Oyelowo is open about her strong faith. She tells Woman Alive that this has made her want to take roles that set a good example. “I trust God with my every breath. So, if he has a different plan for me right now, that’s what I’m going do. But there was also quite a lot of fear in me, being in Hollywood. I’m a talented actress; I can inhabit a character. But what seemed even more important to people was how I looked while I played that character. And that is not who I am. This was 16 years ago, and everything was sexy librarian, sexy scientist, sexy, whatever. That’s not who women are! It’s very important to me that I put things out into the world that are edifying even if I’m playing a difficult character or an evil character; the story itself is doing something for good.”

7. She Dances

Jessica is a dancer. “When @lee_lavina and I climb a mountain 😂 It was obviously a choice between singing a duet or doing our dance we’ve been learning in ballet... next time we’ll sing a duet,” she joked in one of her posts. Dancing is a great workout for many reasons. Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.

Rachel Bush isn’t afraid to show off her figure. The model and wife of Buffalo Bills star, Jordan Poyer, shares a bunch of revealing photos on Instagram.

1. She Wants To Help Others

Bush has a large following, and she wants to put it to good use. She opened up about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “​​Having this platform also opens many doors for me that others don’t get the chance to access. I have so many projects going on now that will benefit me in the long run that no one sees on social media, but I want my followers help in giving me ideas of what to do next with my following that will help OTHERS.”

2. She Ignores The Negative

Bush is all about staying positive. One thing she does is ignore negative comments. Bush talked about this in the Instagram post’s caption. “No more reading into the negative comments and hate for me 🙅🏽‍♀️ just pure positivity from here on out! Because people are either going to hate or love you! I have nothing to prove nor do I no longer want to have to prove anything for those who haven’t got to meet me and get to know me in real life. I don’t have the energy for the hate anymore.”

3. She’s Happy

Bush is happy with herself and her life. She also talked about this in her Instagram caption. “Here's to me going back to being happy, carefree and living my life to PLEASE me and no one else. Being a mom while also being a 21 year old who has been BLESSED with an amazing life. I’ll continue to share the little bit that I want all while living my real life outside social media, working on all my projects and staying focused and remaining true to myself and not attacking those who attack me because they have their own issues. I’m me, I’m blessed, I’m happy and I’m going to get back on track!”

4. She Swims

Rachel.BushRachel Bush/Instagram

Bush likes to horseback ride to stay in shape. In this set of vacation photos she posted on Instagram, she is seen riding by the beach. According to The American Heart Association, riding has a lot of benefits. “Riding a horse for 45 minutes at a walk, trot and canter can burn up to 200 calories,” said Dr. Dennis Sigler, a Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service horse specialist and professor in the department of animal science at Texas A&M University in College Station. “If you do something a bit more strenuous such as cutting or reining, that can come out to nearly seven calories per minute for the entire length of the riding period."

Too Hot To Handle star Carly Lawrence is enjoying the sunshine and blue skies in the beautiful state of Georgia. Lawrence posted a picture of herself looking tan and fit while posing in a bright fruit-patterned bikini, her hair loose around her shoulders. “Gorgeous,” an admiring fan commented. “Perfect,” said another. How does Lawrence maintain her physique? Here are 5 ways the reality star stays fit.

1. Newlywed Lifestyle

Lawrence married Love Island USA's Bennett Sipes in May 2022 in Los Angeles, and says she is living a healthier life these days. "I've cut out drinking and partying because we're going to Hawaii," she says. "We spend a lot of time with our families, with our dogs and we're so focused on work right now. We have fun, we go to dinner and stuff. We see some of our friends."

2. She Lifts Weights

Lawrence lifts heavy weights as part of her exercise routine. “Lean muscle mass naturally diminishes with age,” according to the Mayo Clinic. “Your body fat percentage will increase over time if you don't do anything to replace the lean muscle you lose over time. Strength training can help you preserve and enhance your muscle mass at any age.”

3. She’s a Homebody

Lawrence describes herself as a homebody, and loves quiet time with her pets. “When we’re frazzled, our fight-or-flight response is on overload causing a host of problems,” says clinical health psychologist Amy Sullivan, PsyD, ABPP. “We can use calm, quiet moments to tap into a different part of the nervous system that helps shut down our bodies’ physical response to stress.”

4. Business Woman

Lawrence is taking a step into the business world by releasing her own perfume. "I bought every perfume we could think of,” she says. “I thought, 'There's so many that I love, and I was constantly mixing perfumes.' I realized I want girls to buy one fragrance and love it and not spend a ton of money because TikTok is telling them to. It's still in the process. I've had different samples, but I didn't like any of them. This is the first thing I am putting my face on, and I want it to be perfect. I found a new chemist in America, and it's going to take about four months. It's a bunch of my favorite perfumes combined into one. It will be sweet. I am going to start with one and then hopefully it does well.”

5. Too Hot To Handle

Lawrence has fond memories of her time on Too Hot To Handle. “I was having fun, and I wasn’t thinking about it,” she says. “I didn’t care if I was going to get judged, because I knew I was going to be judged regardless. Every episode that you see is genuinely me. Who wants to look at someone who’s not genuine online? It’s too fake and it gets boring. I could tell when some people weren’t being genuine on the show. I could see it myself, and it definitely comes through on camera.”

Rebeca Andrade is an Olympic gymnast. She is the most decorated Olympic athlete from Brazil, having won two gold medals, three silvers, and a bronze. Andrade recently shared some highlights of her native Brazil on Instagram. In some of them, she posed in a swimsuit while wading. Andrade captioned the post, “SC-&-RS🏕️🌅❤️ Being free is a paradox. It's committing to the life you want, without running away from the work that it entails. It's building freedom every day, with conscious choices and, mainly, with the acceptance that freedom is not the absence of limits, but the autonomy to know which ones are worth it and which ones are not. Being free is being willing to carry the weight of your own life and still find it funny.”

She Swims

In her Instagram post, Andrade is seen swimming. The Cleveland Clinic says that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming takes much less of a toll on your body than, say, running or riding a bike. That’s because exercising in water lessens the impact of your body weight on your joints.”

She Does Gymnastics

Gymnastics is the main way Andrade stays in shape. British Gymnastics states that the sport has a lot of benefits. “When you take part in gymnastics, or any sport for that matter, your body releases chemicals called endorphins. These also help to trigger a positive feeling in the body which can have a positive impact on your happiness and mental wellbeing. This can help to combat feelings of anxiety and depression.”

She Prioritizes Safety

Andrade talked about her training approach in an interview with the Olympics website. She says that she and her coach prioritize her safety, and that she will skip floor sessions if she isn’t able to do it. "I talk a lot with my coach and we trust in each other. We always try to be really safe, and do floor in the correct moments. He believes in me. I'm never going to lie to not do it. So, when I really tell him that I can't do it, it's because I cannot and he always respects that.”

She Sets Goals

In her Olympics website interview, Andrade talked about her commitment and goal setting. Specifically, she talked about her goal to make the Olympic team. “The other [goal], which is the main one, is for us to qualify as a team,” Andrade said. “I think it will be very important for me, for my team, and the focus is on that, whatever happens there, the result is a consequence of our work, of our commitment. But I really want to be there with my team and be happy and healthy.”

She Cooks

Andrade makes sure to eat healthy. She also likes to cook a lot of her own meals. She shared some of her favorite things to make in an interview with NPR. “There was one that was with potatoes and cheese, chicken. There’s cake. There’s cookies. A lot of things.”

Brandi Glanville has never been one to hold back, whether on reality TV or her unfiltered podcast. Best known for her time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the US and UK versions of Celebrity Big Brother, and The Traitors, Glanville always speaks her mind. Her podcast, Brandi Glanville Unfiltered, recently stirred up some drama when she called out Real Housewives stars for struggling on The Traitors and suggested the show stop casting them. Many fans saw this as subtle shade toward Phaedra Parks, who excelled in the previous season.

Beyond the headlines, Glanville has shared glimpses into her personal wellness routine, from skincare secrets to unconventional self-care methods. Here’s a look at how she stays feeling and looking her best.

She Uses Eye Patches

One thing that Glanville does to take care of her skin is use under-eye patches. In this Instagram post, she revealed the brand she used on Celebrity Big Brother. Glanville captioned it, “One of the #1 questions we get from fans since leaving #bigbrother is what brand of under eye patches were we wearing constantly on the show...The answer is @peterthomasrothofficial!! They are amaze! #ThanksMarissa 💋 (Blogging about all the products, will be posting on @bbeautyunfltrd soon).”

She Walks

Glanville likes to walk her dogs to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself and her pup walking in Los Angeles. Glanville captioned the post, “On our way to do some podcasting.” Harvard Health says that walking is very beneficial. “Walking can help protect you during cold and flu season. A study of over 1,000 men and women found that those who walked at least 20 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week, had 43% fewer sick days than those who exercised once a week or less. And if they did get sick, it was for a shorter duration, and their symptoms were milder.”

She Has A Dog

As you can see from the previous Instagram post, Glanville has pet dogs. And according to Harvard Health, this can be beneficial. “A growing body of solid research shows that owning a dog can: provide companionship, help you be more active, make kids calmer, more secure, and more responsible, improve the lives of older individuals, help you be calmer, more mindful, and more present in your life, make you more social and less isolated, ease stress.”

She Worked With A Breath Coach

Glanville revealed to Us Weekly that she works with a breath coach to help with her mental health. “I’m still doing cosmetic stuff, but at the same time trying to fix myself. I eat better and breathe and actually exercise. I’m getting there. I just started with this journey, but I can actually do things. My body can do things now that I couldn’t do five years ago.”

She Uses CellSound

Glanville revealed to People that she used the CellSound treatment on her stomach. "I mean, to be honest, I haven't worn a crop top in years, and I literally feel comfortable going out in a crop top, which is so bizarre," she says. "Not that I feel like everyone should do that, but I can go work out with a crop top on and not feel like I have my mommy stomach and I shouldn't sit down. So it's definitely empowered me in that aspect."

The practice may help you recover from an existing injury or manage a chronic musculoskeletal issue. It may also help you establish a healthy baseline, so that when those injuries or issues arise, you’re able to bounce back faster.”

She Boxes

One thing she did was box. “It builds the shape of muscles I needed to look like a fighter, and it's just plain fun," she says.” Boxing has a lot of health benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “Regular physical activity, including boxing, can lower your blood pressure, your cholesterol and your risk of heart disease.”

McNamara tells Women’s Health that she doesn’t skip leg day. "I know most people hate leg day, but I kinda love it. It's what makes me feel strongest." Piedmont says that leg workouts are extremely important. “Having strong glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings and calf muscles gives your body a strong foundation and can: Tone your lower body muscles. Boost your metabolism as you increase muscle mass. Give you a higher calorie burn as you train larger muscle groups. Improve your balance.”

She Does HIIT

While on Shadowhunters, McNamara did a lot of HIIT. "In order to do the fight scenes, I needed a lot of upper body strength because I would be holding weapons all day," she says to Women’s Health. "High intensity interval training turned out to be the perfect thing for me. I was able to keep up my cardio stamina and build upon that so I could do the fight scenes, which are basically just sprints."

McNamara tells Women’s Health that she makes sure to stay consistent with her workouts. “There were days when I was tired. There were days when the last thing I wanted to do was pick up a weight...but I just had to physically get myself there—to take a deep breath and remember why I was doing it and why I was there. I think that can go for any kind of physical goal that someone has—half the battle is the mental battle.”
