Brittany Mahomes is heating up social media in her swimsuit. In a recent post shared by Sports Illustrated, Patrick Mahomes’ wife flaunts her amazing figure in a tiny bathing suit during her Swimsuit Edition shoot in Belize. “Bringing it back to Belize with a film flashback,” the magazine captioned a still image. How does the 28-year-old former soccer player approach diet and fitness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. Healthy Diet

Brittany eats wholesome, healthy meals, which include a lot of rice bowls with lean meats, like chicken or fish, white rice, and veggies. She also likes salads. For dinners, her go-to "is always a taco night," she told Eating Well. "It's so easy to throw together and to get the whole family involved in the cooking process. Both Patrick and the kids love it."

2. Workout Buddy

Brittany’s workout buddy is her NFL star husband, who she trains. “But when we train together, you know, we just kind of push each other and like,” she told Men’s Health. “I obviously never win, if we are training or racing or anything, but I feel like me pushing hard makes him push harder.”

3. Sleep

Brittany makes sure to get plenty of sleep. “This offseason, I woke up, you know, early with him every day. So we were on the same schedule. We had to go to bed early because we had to get up early and go train together. I think that's played a huge role in just keeping him motivated,” she told Men’s Health.

4. Strength Training

MahomesBrittany Mahomes/Instagram

Brittany is all about strength training. "Staying active and being in the gym has been a huge part of my life," she said in a December 2023 interview with Eating Well. After her sports career was over she realized that "being in the gym was something that I remained super passionate about,” she added. "I enjoy strength training and lifting weights mostly.”She recently posted this video of her lower-body routine. It includes simple but effective moves including deadlift squats, back leg swings, and one leg back leg swings. "Raise your hand if you love leg days, even when they are brutal,” she captioned it.

5. Walking

Brittany added to Eating Well that “walks with the kids and the dogs," also help keep her in shape. 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.

Brittany Mahomes is a model, trainer, and influencer. She is married to Super Bowl champion and Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes recently hit the gym in some new workout clothes. She shared a photo and a workout video on Instagram. Mahomes captioned the photo, “I’m obsessed.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Brittany Mahomes stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Works Her Core

B MAHOMES.3Brittany Mahomes/Instagram

Mahomes shared some of her favorite workouts in her Instagram story. She likes to do core workouts. Harvard Health reports that having a strong core has a lot of benefits. “Having a strong core helps improve balance, which lowers your risk of falling. It may also prevent other injuries, such as muscle strain or spasms in the lower back. Well-developed core muscles help stabilize your spine, helping to create a firm base of support for virtually all movement, including everyday moves like reaching up to a shelf or wiping up a spill on the floor. In addition, without a strong core, your leg muscles may not function in an optimal position, which often puts undue stress on the hips and knees. These common back and leg aches and pains often derail regular exercise routines, which are important for a healthy heart. Finally, core conditioning improves posture, which contributes to a trimmer appearance.”

2. She Strength Trains

B MAHOMES.2Brittany Mahomes/Instagram

Mahomes also wrote in her Instagram stories that she is strength training to stay in shape. According to The Mayo Clinic, this has a lot of benefits. “By stressing your bones, strength training can increase bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories.”

3. She Does Squats

B MAHOMES.1Brittany Mahomes/Instagram

Mahomes also likes to do squats to stay in shape. She is seen doing them in her Instagram story. NASM states that squats have a lot of benefits. “The squat is an effective exercise for improving lower body muscular endurance, strength and power. It is a compound movement involving many joint actions and associated musculature. Individuals performing the squat exercise should be aware of common faulty movement patterns that occur at the foot/ankle, knees, and hips. By becoming aware and consequently correcting these faulty movements novice exercisers will be able to avoid unnecessary and preventable injuries during exercise.”

4. She Wants To Inspire Others

B Mahomes.4Brittany Mahomes/Instagram

In an interview on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s website, Mahomes talked about wanting to inspire other women. “I want women to feel empowered to always be yourself, love yourself, and feel confident in whatever you do and I think SI Swimsuit does, too,” she says. “Be confident in who you are and be unapologetically yourself. People are going to love you or hate you, but finding your values and what makes you ‘you’ to be the best version of yourself is what really matters. Whether that’s health and wellness, being a great wife or mom, or career goals, being the best version of you is the most important thing you can be.”

5. She Posts Workouts Online

B MAHOMES.5Brittany Mahomes/Instagram

Mahomes likes to share a lot of her favorite workouts online. She talked about how she got interested in this in her interview with SI Swimsuit. “When I was playing professional soccer over in Iceland, I didn’t have a ton to do outside of soccer, so I found myself spending a ton of time in the gym working out, creating workouts, and posting them online. I realized that I was enjoying that so much more than actually playing soccer.”

She is seen doing shoulder presses, bicep curls, tricep curls, and side arm lifts. Mahomes captioned the post, “Feeling real motivated.” The Mayo Clinic states, “Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

2. She Works Out Her Entire Body

Mahomes likes to swim to stay in shape. She shared these photos of herself in a pool while on vacation on Instagram. Mahomes captioned the post, “On the Instagram Husband series, here’s todays update…@patrickmahomes killed it.” Better Health states that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming is a great recreational activity for people of all ages. Recreational swimming can provide you with a low-impact workout and it's a good way to relax and feel good.”

5. She Works Out With Her Husband

Brittany Mahomes-4Brittany Mahomes/Instagram

Mahomes and her husband, Patrick, like to workout together. And she pushes him hard. Patrick opened up about his wife in an interview. “100% she has killed me with the workouts. Especially at the beginning. The amount of reps, like it’s unreal. I have to stop doing all the reps sometimes. Resistance bands, kettlebells, dumbbells, and getting after it. She is used to working out at home and definitely not me.”

Mahomes shared her secrets to eating healthy while traveling with EatingWell. “I’ve learned that the best way to avoid any issues while traveling is to be prepared and plan ahead. We take the initiative to bring all of our own snacks, which can take a little more effort. We travel with a small cooler to make it easy and keep things fresh! It’s stocked with protein shakes for me for an easy protein boost on the go, plus whole-food snacks for the kids like fruits, veggies, pouches, etc.”

5. She Uses A Facial Mist

Mahomes makes sure to take care of her skin. She revealed on her Instagram story that one product she uses is a facial mist. ”I don’t ever get my face spray tanned anymore cause I get nervous about my perioral dermatitis breaking out. @Isabelalysa knows what she’s doing!!! This product is amazing! Literally mist it on my face every few days and gives my face a nice glowy tan. AND doesn’t irritate my skin.”

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

Over the past few years, Sydney Sweeney has become one of America’s sweethearts with celebrated roles in everything from hit HBO shows Euphoria and White Lotus to big-screen movies Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Anyone But You. 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.

Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

5 Simple Fitness Habits To Stay Toned Like Mariana Morais

We are committed to bringing you researched, expert-driven content to help you make more informed decisions around food, health, and wellness. We know how important making choices about your overall health is, and we strive to provide you with the best information possible.

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.
