She's now sharing her authentic self on her podcast and advocating for change in the Bachelor franchise.

Gabby Windey is a reality star. She first appeared on the 26th season of The Bachelor. That summer, she and co-star, Rachel Recchia went on to be the first co-leads on the 19th season of The Bachelorette. Windey would then go on to finish in 2nd on season 31 of Dancing With The Stars with partner Val Chmerkovskiy. Windey recently launched her own podcast, Long Winded. She and her girlfriend recently went on a trip to Chileno Bay, and she shared some highlights on Instagram. Windey captioned it, “You guys remember bae-cation.”


She Swims

Windey and her girlfriend are seen swimming in her Instagram post. According to Better Health, swimming is a great exercise. “Swimming is a good all-round activity because it: keeps your heart rate up but takes some of the impact stress off your body, builds endurance, muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness, helps you maintain a healthy weight, healthy heart and lungs, tones muscles and builds strength, provides an all-over body workout, as nearly all of your muscles are used during swimming.”

She Hikes

Windey is also seen hiking on the rocks by the beach in her Instagram post. According to Piedmont, hiking has a lot of health benefits. “Like most cardio exercises, hiking helps reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and even some cancers. Hiking is a weight-bearing exercise that builds muscle mass and helps prevent osteoporosis. Hiking can help you manage your weight.”

She's Authentic

Windey opened up about her coming out process in an interview with Parade. "I went through things while I was dating Robby in the beginning, like kind of shame and internal things. But I'm like, this is true to me. This is the person I wanna be with. I'm sure in the beginning everyone and even my parents have said, 'It's just a phase.’ Even my girlfriends, I'm sure we're like, 'Okay, this is just a phase.' But it's a year and some months later, like it's obviously not a phase."

She Wants to See Change Happen

In her Parade interview, Windey spoke out the importance for change in the Bachelor franchise, especially from male contestants. "I think especially in recent years, even with the fandom and watching Love Island, I feel like the conversation around it is so much different. It's like these men are acting up! Like they are the problem. I hope that The Bachelor can kind of adapt to the times and become a little more progressive. Because I think as viewers now of social media and reality TV, we're craving authenticity."

She Loves Lobster

Windey likes eating lobster. She is seen enjoying a lobster roll in this Instagram post. Eating any kind of shellfish has a lot of benefits. AANMC states, “Shellfish is an excellent source of zinc, which facilitates the development of immune-defense cells in the body. 6 One of the symptoms associated with zinc deficiency is a decrease in activity of natural killer (NK) cells, which are essential for fighting disease.”

Trista Sutter loves to do Pilates. She revealed on Instagram that she likes to do it when she needs time to relax. “Not that it’s happening as often as I should make it happen, but my motto lately: Me Time...It’s a Necessity. Today, that meant Pilates at @westinriverfront and tomorrow it means I sit in a chair while @970style helps me wash that grey right outta my hair. Has to be done.”

2. Ali Fedotowsky

Los,Angeles,-,Jul,26:,Ali,Fedotowsky,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

In an interview with Women’s Health, Ali Fedotowsky talked about her diet. "I eat when I'm hungry and I don't deprive myself," she says. "If I want something, I've let myself have it. I think it's important to enjoy food and to focus on having a healthy lifestyle instead of dieting."

3. Jillian Harris

Jillian Harris has her own blog, where she talks about her wellness. In this post, Harris opened up about making this year one where she gets healthier. “I decided to set an intention with myself and that intention was that 2023 would be different! It would be the year of the new, healthy Jillian! I’ve had enough of just eating pasta and drinking wine and coffee. (Of course, no hate to pasta, coffee and wine… maybe just not that diet exclusively.) All of the irritability and tiredness felt like signals from my body telling me it was time for something different. So, I knew it was time for a more balanced diet and an overall healthier lifestyle.”

4. Ashley Hebert

Desiree Hartsock likes to take Peloton classes at home to keep herself in shape. She talked about this in this Instagram post. Hartsock captioned the post, “Oh hey baby weight - meet my friend Peloton. She’s going to melt you away. But don’t worry- I’ll always have fond memories of how you came to be apart of me and right now there’s two beautiful boys as your constant reminder. We may see each other again one day.. but also maybe not. You may linger for awhile longer.. and that’s ok too. But for now and in advance.. farewell sweet pockets of cushion and loose waves of skin.”

6. Andi Dorfman

Andi Dorfman talked about her diet in an interview with Page Six. “As far as the diet goes, I’ve always eaten healthy. Now I eat the same amount of food if not more, but in a more purposeful way. So for example, before a run, I’ll stock my body up with a lot of carbs and after a run I’ll be sure to intake a lot of protein. So I’ve really learned what foods provided what fuel for my body.”

7. Kaitlyn Bristowe

Kaitlyn Bristowe talked about her diet and wellness tips with ELLE Canada. In it, she revealed how she stays healthy while traveling. “I do try to workout wherever I go. If I am just there for a couple days, I pack one cute outfit and then all of my Reebok clothes so that I am ready to workout when I can. At the airport I make sure I am not taking the tram to each gate and I will walk. I try and be very cautious of making small decisions and small goals for myself to keep me active. Airport food isn’t the healthiest so I will find those little variety stores for hard boiled eggs or almonds and I make sure to drink lots of water.”

8. Rachel Lindsay

Las,Vegas,-,May,21:,Rachel,Lindsay,At,The,2017Shutterstock

Rachel Lindsay talked about her skincare secrets in an interview with HollywoodLife. “I think consistency is key, especially during the holiday season because I am traveling so much as a guest host. Every morning, I start by washing my face with a creamy face wash to retain my skin’s moisture and then I follow up with a serum that has a ton of vitamin A, C & E. But the key to my glowy skin is the HydraFacial at Ideal Image MedSpa. The HydraFacial gives my skin instant radiance and it’s definitely become a staple in my skincare routine.”

9. Jojo Fletcher

Beverly,Hills-,Aug,08:,Jojo,Fletcher,Arrives,For,The,2019Shutterstock

Jojo Fletcher shared some of her favorite workout products with E! News. She says that she loves to use resistance bands. “I've gotta say, although they look small, they are mighty and they give you a killer workout. I love these for so many reasons. They come in three different strengths. There's a light, medium, and heavy. These are also great if you travel a lot and you want to keep working out while you travel, these are tiny to fit in your bag. There are so many different things you can do with these. They come with a pamphlet that has suggested workouts on how you can use the bands.”

10. Tayshia Adams

New,York,,New,York,-,September,09:,Tayshia,Adams,AttendsShutterstock

Tayshia Adams is a big fan of running. She tells Elite Daily that she likes to set small goals when it comes to running and fitness. “It could just be running for 10 minutes, running for half a mile, or running until I get tired,” she says. “If you do that every single day, the endgame is always going to increase. Start setting goals and you’ll keep surprising yourself.”

11. Hannah Brown

Los,Angeles,-,Oct,13:,Hannah,Brown,Arrives,For,TheShutterstock

Hannah Brown shared her favorite healthy breakfasts in an interview with Bustle. “I try to eat around 11 after my workout, which could still be considered breakfast. Sometimes I'll have a banana, but my favorite is the breakfast tacos my boyfriend makes at home. It has to be with the Siete almond tortillas. They're so good with a little ghee butter on top, and then some scrambled eggs with either bacon or sausage. This is of course with some Cholula hot sauce on top.”

12. Michelle Young

Michelle Young is known for being very athletic. One thing she likes to do to stay in shape is going swimming. She shared these photos of herself in a pool in Iceland on Instagram. Young captioned the post, “If Iceland isn’t on your bucket list, it should be.”

13. Katie Thurston

During the time in the Bachelor franchise, Katie Thurston was known for being sex positive. She talked about this in an interview on the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast. "It wasn't some agenda that I had coming on to the show. It's just who I am and who I've been this whole time. It wasn't until after the fact that I realized how big of a deal it was — which excites me because I do believe it's 2021 and women should be comfortable talking about their sexuality."

14. Clare Crawley

Clare Crawley makes sure to eat healthy. One thing she enjoys is smoothies. In this Instagram post, Crawley revealed one of her favorite smoothie recipes.

15. Britt Nilsson

2015 Billboard Music Awards - ArrivalsJon Kopaloff/FilmMagic

In an interview on The Doctors, Britt Nilsson talked about her struggles with an eating disorder when she was on The Bachelor. “I made a vow to myself about two years ago after the show,” she says. “I did a lot of soul-searching and I was like: ‘You know what? No matter what, I’m never throwing up again.’ I gained weight and it was yo-yo-ing, and it was scary,” she admits. “There are times where I’ve had to call Jeremy and be like, ‘I want to throw up so bad — I’m so scared.’ There is so much pressure to be thin. He’s talked me through it and I don’t throw up anymore, however, the binge eating disorder is something that I think about a lot … every day.”

16. Gabby Windey

Los,Angeles,-,Aug,10:,Gabby,Windey,At,The,VarietyShutterstock

Gabby Windey notably came out as a member of the LGBTQ community on The View. She talked about what made her decide to come out in the interview. “I think it was always a whisper in me that just got louder and louder, and I didn’t really know to pay attention to it,” Windey said. “I think, you know, when this happens, there’s some shame, obviously, surrounding it. So I think I had to, a little bit, navigate through the shame, like, what is it? Where is it coming from? But ultimately, like I said, I always just want to kind of like, do me, do what I want, figure it out later.”

17. Rachel Recchia

Rachel Recchia opened up about the heartbreaks she had on both The Bachelor and The Bachelorette to HollywoodLife. “I definitely am glad that I've had time to really reflect and really heal and look back at some mistakes I might've made and to be able to learn and grow from there. I truly believe in love and when it comes it'll come. I'm definitely open to it, but healing at the same time."

Bachelorette star Gabby Windey is taking time off from her Dancing With the Stars schedule to enjoy some much-needed pool time. Windey posted a photo of herself looking serene as she relaxed in the water, wearing a white bathing suit. “Am I the drama?” she captioned the shot. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Windsey stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!


1. She’s a Cheerleader

Windey was a cheerleader for the NFL's Denver Broncos for five years. Cheerleading is based on both dance and gymnastics, which can be fun ways to exercise. “Gymnasts require stamina and good cardiovascular health,” says sports medicine specialist Marie Schaefer, MD. “Exercises that get your heart pumping are beneficial both during and between competition seasons… A strong core is so vitally important for gymnasts. A stress fracture in the lower back is a common gymnastics injury that can be prevented with proper core strength. Core strength provides lumbar support and takes stress off of your spine. This is especially helpful when you’re curving your back for dismounts and arch position.”

2. She Loves Oysters

Winsey enjoys eating oysters, which experts say can have tremendous health benefits. “Yes, oysters are very good for you,” sasy preventive cardiology dietitian Julia Zumpano, RD, LD. “In fact, you probably didn’t know that it’s hard to beat all the health benefits of oysters from a nutritional standpoint. Oysters can really pack a healthy punch. Think of oysters as little shells full of nutrients.”

3. She Cherishes the Little Things

Celebrity Sightings In New York City - July 06, 2022Raymond Hall/GC Images

Windey appreciates the small moments with fiancé Erich Schwer. “We’re just excited to finally be released and do the little things together — go to dinner, go grocery shop, go to the beach — just the mundane things that’s always more fun with a partner by your side,” Windey tells Variety. “Luckily, we’re both in the same city, so there’s not too much coordinating. We’re just excited to start this new chapter and really build the life together.”

4. She Eats Her Crustaceans

Windey loves her seafood—especially delicious shrimp. “Shellfish – especially crustaceans – are high in amino acids, known as the ‘building blocks’ of protein as we need them for growth and repair and the synthesis of hormones and neurotransmitters,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “Most shellfish are high in vitamin B12, an important nutrient required for healthy bone formation. Low levels of vitamin B12, also known as pernicious anemia, can increase your risk of osteoporosis as you age.”

5. She Dances With Her Fiancé

Windey loves practicing for Dancing With the Stars with partner Schwer. “He's doing great. I show him all my dance moves and try and practice with him so I just, you know, want to involve him as much as I can. He's being so supportive,” she tells Extra.

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.

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.

Needs Intro

She’s Consistent

Last year, Culpo was preparing for her wedding. She told E! News that she made sure to be consistent with her wellness in order to prepare. “Really trying to dial in [on] what I eat, how I workout, the workouts that I do. Trying to get them in consistently because you only get married once and I want to feel my best. But this past season it was just hard being so far away from my normal routine and where I typically live."

She Keeps Her Skin Healthy While Traveling

Culpo has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it, even while traveling. “I don't wear any makeup when traveling," she says to Travel + Leisure. "That's one rule because I do feel like you will have a higher chance of breaking out if you are wearing a full face of makeup. A few things I always have with me is some sort of a spray. I love Dr. Barbara Sturm or Caudalie or La Mer. I also absolutely love traveling with a makeup wipe, the Neutrogena wipes are great. Something to just take off the sweat you build up.”

She Keeps Her Skincare Simple

Culpo shared her skincare routines with Byrdie. She says that she keeps her morning and night routine simple. “I am always trying out new products, so what I gravitate toward is often changing. At night, I usually use an oil and a serum. Right now, I love the Clarins Double Serum. In the morning, I use a Vitamin C serum and an SPF, and, typically, I just rinse my skin with warm water instead of using a cleanser. It is something I swear by—it allows for the oils on my skin from sleeping to absorb naturally.”

She Uses Products With Vitamins

Culpo shared some of her favorite skincare products with Byrdie. She says that she uses ones that have vitamins in them. “I have noticed a huge difference in my skin with vitamin C and E. I love the Good Janes H2OMyGod Moisturizer—it's sort of an all-in-one moisturizer that has vitamin C and collagen peptides. As for vitamin E, I actually just purchase the oil from the drugstore. It is super cheap and great to put on any red marks I may get from an occasional breakout. The healing process is so much quicker when I am using Vitamin E oil.”

She Packs Healthy Snacks

Culpo makes sure to eat healthy. She shared some of the snacks she packs with her with Travel + Leisure. "I love the Kind bars. I love any sort of nuts, to be honest with you. They are a go-to snack for me. I would say Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% and some almonds would be perfect! Also, electrolytes to stay hydrated or some sort of collagen beauty powder or something."

Abigail Ratchford’s amazing body has helped her become one of the most famous models on the internet. The 32-year-old, who boasts over 9.1 million followers on Instagram alone, attributes her measurement-defying body to a few simple habits. Here is everything she does to stay fit at 32.

She Follows 4 Diet Rules

Abigail swears that abiding by simple rules helps her stay in shape. “I can’t diet. That just doesn’t work for me,” she told New Beauty. “I started to be healthier by first cutting out soda. Then, I stopped eating after 7 p.m. Finally, I started really watching my portions so I was eating fewer calories every day. And water—lots and lots of water.”

She UsesMyFitnessPal

Abigail explains being accountable for what she eats is crucial. While it’s not “rocket science,” she does use the MyFitnessPal app to track her eating. “I’m the type of person who likes to eat what I want. The app can help anyone do that—you can still eat great food, you just eat less of it,” she added New Beauty.

Pilates

Abigail is a fan of Pilates. “Group workout classes are so big right now, but I always get nervous around other people in settings like that. I have to go at my own pace without a bunch of distractions so, for me, Pilates with a one-on-one instructor works best. It’s not cheap, but then you also aren’t tempted to skip,” she said She added to Men’s Fitness via Muscle & Fitness that the workout “keeps you long and lean” — and the Mayo Clinic agrees. They say 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, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

Balanced Diet

“I love green juices and smoothies. Sometimes I’ll put some protein powder in the morning—I feel like the mix of vegetables, and vitamins and stuff that’s in them, really gives me a lot of energy in the morning. I love BBQ food—my ultimate cheat is a pulled pork sandwich, sweet potato fries, and macaroni and cheese from this great place in LA,” she told Men’s Fitness.

Strength Training

Ratchford also lifts weights. “Initially, I made the mistake that a lot of girls do and I was only doing cardio. I just really didn’t see too much change in my body. I’ve been listening to my girlfriends who are in great shape and they say you have to do weight training, you have to go in and do squats. That’s my new thing—I’ve been doing some resistance training, circuit training,” she told Men’s Fitness. The Mayo Clinic explains that 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
