Claudia Schiffer Shares Swimsuit Photo From "Greek Paradise"
Claudia Schiffer is one of the most legendary supermodels of all time. She recently celebrated her birthday with a trip to Greece. Schiffer shared some highlights on Instagram. In them, she wore a blue and red checked swimsuit. She captioned the post, "Celebrating in Greek paradise, featuring a special friend who came to wish me happy birthday." How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Claudia Schiffer stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.
She Takes Care Of Her Skin
Schiffer has amazing skin, and she shared her secrets with Into The Gloss. "In the morning, I just shower and wash my face with water. And then I moisturize a lot. When I apply anything, I make sure to massage my face to get the blood moving. Bamford is what I use for the basics—I do the serum, then oil, then cream. In the morning, it helps seal everything in and calm everything down. They also make a cleansing and clearing mask that I like to use when I take an Epsom salt bath. Sisley also makes some creams that are really hydrating—their Black Rose Cream in particular."
She Walks
Schiffer shared some of her favorite workouts in an interview. She says that one of her favorite things to do is walk. "I never do extreme sports like running, I prefer to walk even when it's very cold, it's good for the organism and I feel like the fresh air tones my skin. I try and do as much as possible to relax my body, my face."
She Loves Yoga
Schiffer says that she also likes to practice yoga in the same interview. "I work on my breathing too, thanks to yoga… I like having stress-free breaks." Harvard Health states that yoga has a lot of benefits. "People who practice yoga and are mindful eaters are more in tune with their bodies. They may be more sensitive to hunger cues and feelings of fullness. Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood. People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating."
She Works Out With Friends
Schiffer shared some of her workout secrets with Net-A-Porter. "I've started working out with my girlfriends, doing everything from cardio to yoga or tennis. Every day, we do something new, which makes it fun." Exercising with others, like friends, has a lot of benefits. Better Health states, "Exercising with a friend or loved one can make it more fun, and increase your chances of sticking to your exercise plan. Exercising with a friend is a great way to keep you motivated. It's also a great way to meet new people. It can even save you money."
She Eats Healthy
Schiffer broke down her diet to Net A Porter. "We eat seasonal, locally grown fruit and vegetables that are pesticide-free, and organically produced meat and dairy from local farms. I start my day with quinoa, pineapple, almond slithers and fresh almond milk with dates in it. Lunch usually consists of vegetables and a small amount of turkey, chicken or fish, and it's the same for dinner. Snacks are sheep's or goat's yogurt with banana, chia seeds and flax seeds, and treats are always chocolate, a great red wine or my favorite Leoube rosé."
