Cyclist Puck Moonen Shows Off Amazing Body in "Favourite Places"

Puck Moonen is a professional cyclist. She got to do a lot of things this year, and shared some highlights on Instagram recently. In the caption, Moonen shared where each photo was taken. “Just some of my favourite places I've been to this year🥰 1, 9, 11: Ibiza, Spain. 2, 10: Swiss Alps, Switzerland. 3: Jebel Jais, UAE. 4, 7: Monaco. 5: Siena, Italy. 6: Circuit de Reims, France. 8: Circuit Zolder, Belgium. 12: Bassano del Grappa, Italy. 13, 14: HOME❤️”


She Bikes

Biking is naturally the main way that Moonen stays in shape. According to A Healthier Michigan, biking has a lot of benefits. “All that work your body is doing by pedaling and balancing not only works muscles in your arms and core, but it counts as serious cardio exercise and burns calories with every spin of the wheels. By biking at a moderate pace, about 12 or 13 miles per hour, a person weighing 155 pounds burns nearly 300 calories in 30 minutes, according to statistics shared by Harvard University. Like to pedal faster? A person of that same weight doing a fast pace of 14 or 15 miles per hour burns more than 370 calories in 30 minutes.”

She's Comfortable With Her Body

Moonen talked about her journey to finding acceptance in her body in the caption of this Instagram post. “Am I fat? Obviously, no. And it's not a question I ask myself either. Not anymore, at least. But plenty of (young) athletes still do. And heck, it's not even just athletes. It is baffling how much bodyshaming is a thing in sports. Especially for female athletes, and for men it's a huge taboo. Cycling is a sport where everyone obsesses over W/kg and numbers on the scale often get wrongfully judged, even within professional teams (putting young athletes on a scale and telling them they need to lose 3kg is... scary!). Everybody is built differently, and what is ideal and healthy for me to perform at my best may not be ideal for someone else. Performance and health look different on different people!”

She Eats A Balanced Diet

In the caption of the previous Instagram post, Moonen talked about her diet. She says that she believes in a balanced diet. “I've put my unhealthy relationship with food behind me only a few years ago. Restricting and then binging and feeling guilty is not the way. It's not like I am never insecure; but overall I'm doing alright compared. I enjoy food. I eat about 80-90% healthy and fresh, the rest is comfortfood and snacks (which I now enjoy a lot more than before!). It's called balance and it's a pretty damn nice thing to have!”

She Doesn't Underfuel Herself

Moonen makes sure to eat enough when she’s training. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “If I could tell my younger self one thing about nutrition... it would be to stop underfueling during my riding. A habit that was fuelled by insecurity about my weight and obsession with w/kg on one side and lack of variety in foods I could have because of boring flavours and gross structures (*autism has entered the chat*) Sometimes I still feel turned off by the idea of having to eat during riding and eating has been a struggle since I last raced for a pro team (big shock: developed some anxiety then🥲). Now, when I really don't feel like eating I'll just take a few different options with me on my ride to make sure there's always something I can eat and there's always a flavour I feel like having. Usually I end up with gummy bars because they are an all round winner🤪 But I don't miss feeling faint and I also don't miss the binge eating at night🤝🏽”

She Takes Care of Her Mental Health

Moonen talked about taking care of her mental health in the caption of this Instagram post. “Slowly settling back into more of a rhythm at home. Coffee, work, training, doing bits around the house, cuddling the cats🥰Much of how I used to behave around training flowed out of fear. Fear of doing less than others, fear of failure, fear of not burning the calories I just ate to do said training. During all the time I was racing for pro-teams, I never had a healthy relationship with food or training and only started becoming fully aware and changing my behaviour well after. Looking back it wasn't a very happy time and putting my mental health first over the last year has answered a lot of why's on why things weren't working out, or only temporarily. I've been thinking about it a lot recently and how I can use my experience to positively impact others and learn more about myself in the process to build back better☺️”

Lost star Elizabeth Mitchell experienced something truly magical over the summer—a trip to the Italian Dolomites. Mitchell, who played Juliet Burke on the hit ABC show, shared highlights of her trip, including snaps of herself in a swimsuit, enjoying the beautiful outdoor pools at the Alpin Panorama Hotel Hubertus resort. “This was my most unexpected and truly exceptional surprise I’ve ever had while on vacation. Alpin Panorama Hubertus in Valdaora, Italy. This hotel is a dream, surrounded by some of the most beautiful hikes and biking I’ve seen in my life. Heaven&Hell houses saunas and pools in the sky. The Skypool was as close to my dream of flying as I may ever get,” she captioned the post. Here’s how Mitchell stays healthy and happy.

1. Happiness From the Small Things

Mitchell fills her life with small things that bring happiness and contentment. “When I’m not working I listen to audio books,” she says. “I do a lot of construction around my house. I’ll make the odd bit of furniture. Drink coffee. Walk around the property with my dog, Percy. I garden. I pick fruits and vegetables and cook… occasionally delicious things. I read. I work out every day. I watch a lot of movies and TV. I try to coax the guys into playing board games with me. Sometimes I’m successful. I put on a lot of face serums. I love when we all have dinners together. Outside or inside. I absolutely love long dinner talks around the table, outside, with a fire going. Card games, board games, dominoes, and puzzles. Nothing beats a close friend walk-and-talk. You find out the most amazing things.”

2. Beauty Philosophy

Los,Angeles,,Ca.,February,16,,2023:,Elizabeth,Mitchell,At,TheShutterstock

Mitchell gathers beauty from her environment, which helps her feel beautiful. “I suppose I have a lot of love around me,” she says. “Also, I’m surrounded by such beauty. In my environment, the people I’ve chosen as my close friends, and the brave souls who have chosen me. My community is such a gift to me. I wake up filled with a lot of hope. As far as surface things…I work out for at least an hour every day. Some weights. Some stationary biking. And some dancing. I usually have at least seven lotions and potions on my face. I’m also VERY dedicated to sunscreen. When I was 10, my beloved Grandma Bette showed me the difference between her skin that saw the sun and her skin that did not. I have been a sunscreen advocate ever since. There’s probably a bottle or tube of the stuff in every room of my house.”

3. Hard Workouts

Tasty,Cupcakes,On,StandShutterstock

Mitchell loves hard workouts. “I’m a big believer in working out,” she says. “The harder a workout is, the more I feel like I chose the right thing to do. I think you have the body that you make. Sometimes it’s fun to make it strong and sometimes it’s fun to make it feminine by eating a lot of cupcakes. I’m in a strong phase right now; six months ago, I was in a cupcake phase.”

4. Riding Her Bike

Los,Angeles,-,Jun,15:,Elizabeth,Mitchell,Arrives,To,TheShutterstock

Mitchell enjoyed the outdoorsy culture of Austin while filming NBC’s Revolution. “My work schedule is very busy, but I try,” she says. “I ride my bike places. I have one of those old-fashioned bikes with a basket in the front. I’m the resident dork. When Billy (Burke) sees it, he always goes, ‘Come on!’ It’s funny.”

5. Bohemian Style

Mitchell calls her fashion style streamlined bohemian. “I love great pieces,” she says. “I love old jeans, fitted t-shirts, and old hippie dresses with history. One of my favorite dresses was worn by both my grandmother and my mother, and it brings me a lot of joy. Although I am still a fan of a more structured dress, I find that I rarely choose to wear them. It needs to be comfortable. And I need to feel happy and flowy in it. I need to feel like I can move with freedom, with a ‘Gazelle in Galoshes’ attempt at grace. During Covid I embraced the jumpsuit wholeheartedly. I think I probably do have my own style because I’m always gravitating towards the same things. But I do still love to follow fashion and see if something sparks my interest. My character on FIRST KILL, Margot, was deeply into fashion. And it was a real joy to see how it can transform the way you see yourself.”

The White Lotus cast is steaming up social media in their swimsuits. Meghann Fahy shared a photo of some of the actors and actresses from the show’s second season, lounging on the beaches of Italy in their bathing suits. “Sizzley Sicily,” she captioned the photo, which included Simona Tabasco, Aubrey Plaza, Leo Woodall, Adam DiMarco, Haley Lu Richardson, and Beatrice Granno. How do the cast members stay so fit? Read on to see 7 ways the cast of The White Lotus 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. Meghann Fahy Hydrates

Meghann Fahy’s top tip? Hydration. “I down a massive Yeti water bottle, pre-coffee. Hydrating myself is key. I drink so much more water than I even care to drink because I think that it really really helps me get through those 14-, 15-, 16-hour days that we pull sometimes. It helps mentally and physically, and it’s great for my skin,” she told Women’s Health. “On days I can sleep till 7:00, I go to Orangetheory or run. I live in [Brooklyn], so I run by the water a lot,”

2. Simona Tabasco Loves Outdoor Exercise

True to her last name, Simona Tabasco likes to keep things spicy and even has a [chili-pepper tattoo on her forearm]. “Yes! I love it,” she told Vulture about being named after hot sauce. “I love that it’s in my name and part of me. But specifically, it reflects my personality — or at least half of it. There’s a side to me that’s quite quirky and spicy.” She also enjoys outdoor exercise. Two of her favorite forms of fitness? Swimming and hiking.

3. Haley Lu Richardson Dances

Fun fact: Haley Lu Richardson was a competitive dancer before she became famous, and it is still her go-to fitness form. “I danced for like eight or nine years. I was super focused and committed to that; all I did was go to school and then dance and get no sleep. That’s when I learned about self-motivation and committing to something, and also about how much I love entertaining and telling stories. And I think dance and acting have those things in common,” she told The Last Magazine.

4. Leo Woodall Hikes

Leo Woodall enjoys hiking. “Still sore from getting that Uber to the tippy top,” he joked about his Runyon Canyon hike in Los Angeles. Physical benefits of taking a hike include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems. It also offers many mental health benefits, according to a Stanford University study.

5. Aubrey Plaza Loves Yoga

Aubrey Plaza explained to The Cut that she believes wellness is “being conscious of what you’re putting into your body and on your body, and taking care of yourself.” She starts her day with water, followed by a smoothie, coffee, and ginger tea. As for her workouts, she loves yoga and basketball. “I’ve been playing since I was a kid,” she said.

6. Adam DiMarco Plays Basketball

Aubrey isn’t the only White Lotus star who shoots hoops. Adam DiMarco also stays in shape with the help of basketball.

7. Beatrice Granno Walks

Beatrice Granno loves to go for walks, a great way to stay in shape according to science. 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.

Jutta Leerdam in Workout Gear "Finished the Season"

Jutta Leerdam is breaking records and flaunting her abs. In a new social media post the speed skater shows off her amazing body while celebrating the end of the season. “Finished the season in a Track record 1.12.86 🤯🥇❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 Thank you all for the support ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does the Dutch athlete approach health and fitness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. All Around Athlete

Jutta has a history of athletics. “I did a lot of different sports as a child. I played field hockey for eight years and did gymnastics. I had so much energy,” she told Body & Fit. “I started speed skating because my dad really liked the sport. He wanted his children to be able to skate so we could all skate together in the winter. I really liked to see myself get better every time I went. That was the fun part for me. I enjoyed seeing my dad happy and proud of me, too.”

2. Drive to Win

“My goal is the race I need to win next. I’m focused on my fitness goals, too, making sure everything is in balance. I rely on my coach a lot. If I’m not fit enough, or good enough, I’ll find out on the ice. I don’t like to be too confident. You can lose sharpness because of it. I’m an insecure person but I let my insecurities drive me. If you’re a good athlete, you have to be insecure. You need to do better and better. Nothing is ever good enough,” she added.

3. Here Is What She Eats in a Day

Double,Cheeseburger,With,Tomato,And,OnionShutterstock

Jutta detailed her diet to Body & Fit. “In the morning, I eat oatmeal and lots of fruit. It fills me up because I’m always super hungry from training. I really have to watch my protein intake. If I take too much I get too muscular. As a skater, I have to be strong but I don’t want to be too bulky. I see food as my energy. I need carbs. I need fat. I need everything. I eat plenty of vegetables and watch how much food I eat in general, but I wouldn’t say I have a cheat day. What really is a cheat day anyway? A burger contains animal proteins and good fats that I can use as energy. I’ll watch the saturated fats, but if I feel like it, I eat it, and I don’t feel guilty. I use the energy to train the next day,” she explained.

4. Biking

When she isn’t speed skating you can find Jutta biking. “We cycle a lot in the summer, block training, mountain biking, hours of easy riding. That’s the conditioning part. You need a strong base condition to be able to peak at the right moment. In winter, it’s more skating, weight training, and cycling. I train twice a day. We’re off one day per week,” she said.

5. Strong Not Skinny

Jutta focuses on being strong, not skinny. “For me, it’s mostly physical. I have to be strong. I need to work on conditioning, flexibility and strength to be fast and explosive on the ice. This sport is a combination of every aspect of physical fitness. Flexibility, endurance, power. If all of those things are in balance, I feel fit. I used to struggle with being skinny. I wanted to LOOK fit. I was a perfectionist. I saw fat on me and I didn’t want it. I didn’t eat much and everything was super healthy. Now, I’m eating way more to perform. I use food to improve myself as an athlete, not just for looks,” she told the publication.

Model Viktória Varga—known as the world’s sexiest WAG—is soaking up the sun in beautiful Puglia, Italy. The wife of ex-Southampton star Graziano Pelle shared pictures of herself posing next to a bike in a pink halter-top swimsuit and white shorts, against the background of an ancient stone wall. “Evening ride 🚲,” she captioned the post. “You look so beautiful,” a fan commented. Varga has modeled for years and is clearly comfortable being in front of the camera—here’s how she maintains her fitness and gorgeous looks.


1. She Loves To Sweat

Varga follows a common sense approach to health and fitness where she tries to stay active even during her down time. “I don't follow any diet, but I try to eat bread and red meat less,” she says. “I work out 4-5 times a week, but it depends on my mood which class I choose. I like Power Pilates and TRX, but I try out every other type of sport too—what’s important is to make me sweat! In summertime or during my vacation I try to be more active even if I don't go to gym.”

2. Espresso First

Varga loves to start her day with a cup of espresso coffee, especially when she’s in Verona, Italy. Researchers at the University of Verona discovered coffee could have protective benefits against diseases such as Alzheimer’s. “Data keeps coming out which show that coffee drinking is protective for health,” says Dr Federica Amati from Imperial College London. “Whether you have milk or not doesn’t seem to make a difference, but as soon as it’s sweetened with sugar, you start losing the beneficial effects. Some studies also suggest that espresso drinking is the best.”

3. World Traveler

Varga has traveled around the world, first as a model, then as a WAG, and is appreciative of how this has changed her perspective. “I'm very lucky that I've been to so many places!” she says. “French Polynesia is the most beautiful place I have ever seen, but my big favorite is South Italy. Salento has the most beautiful, crystal clear sea, the most perfect and untouched landscapes and the food is very delicious there!”

4. Weights and Resistance Bands

ViktoriaVaRGAViktória Varga/Instagram

Varga uses small weights and resistance bands to tighten and tone her muscle. “Barbells and dumbbells are classic strength training tools,” says the Mayo Clinic. “If you don't have weights at home, you can use soup cans. Other options can include using medicine balls or kettlebells. You can do many exercises with little or no equipment. Try pushups, pullups, planks, lunges and squats.”

5. Cleanse, Tone, Moisturize

Varga never goes to bed without taking off her makeup and applying a good moisturizer. “Micellar water is the best to remove makeup from sensitive areas, which should be followed by cleansing with soap and water,” says dermatologist Dr Pallavi Sule. Eye makeup should be removed using a soft flat cotton pad instead of wipes. Dab some micellar water over the pad and apply it over the eyes and lashes. Let it sit for a while, this helps dissolve the product. Next, wash with a good cleanser and moisturize.”

Kriti Sanon knows that staying fit doesn’t have to feel like a chore. The Bollywood star recently shared a video on Instagram rocking two-piece workout gear, proving that her fitness philosophy is all about keeping things fun and challenging. From TRX routines to hip thrusts, Sanon mixes up her workouts to stay motivated and strong. “It’s gotta be fun,” she says—and judging by her energy in the gym, she’s clearly found the perfect balance. Here’s how Sanon keeps herself in top shape with a variety of exercises that work both body and mind.

She Does TRX

Sanon does a lot of things to keep herself in shape. She is seen using TRX cables in her Instagram video. NIFS states that these exercises have a lot of benefits. “If you have ever taken a class or done some of even the most basic exercises, you quickly see that core activation is one of the most important aspects. The workouts are simple yet very challenging, and you can easily complete a total-body workout only using one piece of equipment in 20 minutes.”

Strength Training

Sanon is seen doing a lot of strength training exercises in her Instagram video. Strength training has a lot of health benefits. The Mayo Clinic states, “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.”

She Does Hip Thrusts

Sanon is seen doing hip thrusts with a shoulder press in her Instagram video. Hip thrusts have a lot of benefits. Gymless says, “Hip thrusts are a controlled and powerful movement, mainly focusing on the glutes, hamstrings, lower back, and core. This exercise is vital for developing a stronger posterior chain, contributing to improved athletic performance, alleviating lower back pain, and enhancing overall physique. Considering that about 65 million Americans experience some form of back pain, hip thrusts are a great exercise to include in your routine.”

She Does Russian Twists

Another exercise that Sanon is seen doing in her Instagram video is Russian twists with a weight. Gymless says that this exercise is very beneficial. “Russian Twists are a great exercise that develops all parts of your core, especially the obliques, it also targets the shoulders and hips. This exercise involves rotating your torso from side-to-side while maintaining a sit up position with your feet off the ground. This rotational movement often occurs in sports, which makes it a popular exercise amongst athletes. It is speculated that this was developed during the Cold War by the former Soviet Union as a training exercise for the Russian Soldiers.”

She Uses A Stationary Bike

Sanon also shared this workout video on Instagram. In it, she is seen using a stationary bike. Penn State PRO Wellness reports that stationary bike workouts have a lot of health benefits. “Riding a stationary bike can help build strength in your legs and lower body, especially if you use a higher resistance. The pedaling action can help strengthen your calves, hamstrings, and quadriceps. Additionally, it can work the muscles in your core, back, and glutes.”

De Bortoli likes to cook, and she was taught to do so by her grandmother. She shared this video on Instagram of herself and her grandmother cooking together. De Bortoli captioned it, “Grandparents are wealth in society, my grandmother loves to cook and do it with her since I was a child. She has always inspired my creativity, patience, discipline and order but above all traditions, history, and the concreteness of nature's gifts. The greatest teaching my grandparents passed on to me is respect for people, the environment, animals and the kitchen... Today together we made Carnival Frittelle, an easy, quick dessert that adults and kids love. The ingredients are few and simple (but of high quality) and, trust me, the result is guaranteed: nice round but above all soft and tasty.”

She Works Her Abs

De Bortoli shared this video of herself working out on Instagram. In it, she is seen doing core exercises like sit-ups. Core exercises are extremely important. The Mayo Clinic says, “Strong core muscles make it easier to do many activities. When your core muscles are strong, it's easier to swing a golf club, get a glass from the top shelf and bend down to tie your shoes. Strong core muscles help athletes, such as runners. That's because weak core muscles can lead to more fatigue, less endurance and injuries.”

She Works Out With Others

In the previous Instagram video, De Bortoli is seen working out with a friend. Better Health says that this has a lot of benefits. “You’re less likely to get bored when you have a workout buddy, especially a friend. While you’re catching up, having a laugh, encouraging each other, you’re also getting healthier. It’s a win-win. Chatting to a friend during exercise and breaks can help time pass quickly too. You’ll have more options as well, such as a game of tennis or squash.”

She's Less Strict With Her Diet

Cavallari has written several cookbooks, and they have changed as her diet has changed. While promoting her book, Truly Simple with EatingWell, she revealed that her diet is less strict. “I've gotten to a point in my life where not everything has to be so perfect anymore,” Cavallari said. “I used to be so strict about what I was putting in my body. I'm still very healthy and very conscious of it, but I've gotten a little bit more lax. True Roots and True Comfort had nothing ‘white’ in them: no white flour, no white sugar, no white salt. But in Truly Simple, I bend a little bit in a few of the recipes, which really reflects where I am in my life and my new way of eating. Everything is a little bit more relaxed around here now.’

She Loves Cauliflower

Cavallari tells EatingWell that she loves making foods with cauliflower. “I love cauliflower because I think it's very versatile, and there's actually a Sweet Harissa Cauliflower recipe in Truly Simple that's my absolute favorite cauliflower recipe on the planet. If you've ever been to True Food Kitchen, their cauliflower was the inspiration behind it. There's this sweet harissa dressing that's on it, and there's little chopped-up dates in it, so it has that nice balance between sweet and savory. It's the absolute best.”

She Loves Salad

Cavallari likes to make salads. She shared one of her favorite recipes with EatingWell. “This salad has a few of my favorite things: salmon (which has omega-3s and is so, so good for you), bacon (no explanation needed), avocado (healthy fats), and spicy tomatillo ranch dressing (just yum). Together, they create culinary heaven. If you aren't familiar with tomatillos, they're similar to tomatoes but are slightly less sweet and are perfect when drenched in ranch.”

She Works With A Trainer

Cavallari tells Us Weekly that a lot of her gym sessions are with her personal trainer. “He kicks my ass,” she says. “He pushes me really hard. He has me actually lifting really heavy weight, the heaviest weight I’ve ever lifted in my entire life. I feel the best I ever have. I feel like I’m the strongest I’ve ever been.”

She Shared Her Eye Makeup Trick

Cavallari shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Us Weekly. She says that consistency is one of her biggest priorities. “My goal is sort of, right now, just to maintain the muscle that I have,” she says. “I’m really petite. I have no hips. I’m just small. And so if I don’t work out for like a week or two, I feel like all my muscle goes away. So it is about consistency for me.”
