Ellen DeGeneres turned 66 – at the gym. In a new social media post, the talk show host’s wife, Portia de Rossi, wishes her woman a happy birthday, showing off her strength and fit body during a workout. “My darling wife! You continue to amaze me and inspire me. Happy Birthday to the strongest, sweetest, most brilliant person I know. I’m so lucky to be standing next to you as we share this incredible life together. I love you,” she captioned the Instagram video. “One hard worker !!” her trainer, Peter Park, commented. “Beast mode!!!!!” added another follower. How does the 66-year-old approach health and wellness? Here are all of her lifestyle habits.


1. Strength Training

In the video, Ellen does a hardcore but simple weight training circuit. Her strength training workout includes sled pulls and pushes, squats, pull-ups, and dumbbell chest presses.

2. Vegan Diet

Ellen explained to Shape (via PopSugar) why she went vegan. "Food used to be really important to me. I loved steak, I loved hamburgers, I loved all that stuff. I can't believe how irresponsible I was, eating what I ate … I want to be on my toes; I want to have energy. And as much as the [vegan] diet seems like a sacrifice, it's helping me,” she said. She added to Oprah Winfrey in an interview for O that eating plant-based makes her feel better. "Well I felt better about myself, and I felt healthier living in a cruelty-free way. I haven't been sick since, I am not as tired, and I've lost weight. And I am lucky: I have a chef, so it's easy for me. For a lot of people, it's harder."

3. No Sugar or Processed Food

Ellen also avoids sugar and processed food. "No cake, no cookies, no candy,” she told Shape,

4. Pickleball

Ellen is also a fan of the trendy sport pickleball. “All I want for my birthday is to beat Orlando Bloom at pickleball. #OrlandoBloom,” she captioned a recent post. The racquet sport is very similar to tennis, which blends together cardio and aerobic exercise, as there is a lot of running around, and hand-eye coordination, says ACE Fitness.

5. Yoga

You can also find Ellen doing hatha yoga. "I first started doing power yoga in L.A., which really makes no sense. Power yoga? It's the opposite of what it should be. Yoga should calm you down!" she told Shape. There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health. “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,” they said. “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.”

Read on to see 5 ways Eva Longoria 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 Does This Squat Combo

Eva-Longoria-2Eva Longoria/Instagram

Because just doing a squat wouldn’t be enough for Eva, she showed off a combination move. In her banded squat to side kick, she wears an exercise band around her thighs, squats, and then kicks a leg out to the side. Then, she squats again, and kicks the other leg out. Want to steal Eva’s workout style? In this clip she wears Buffbunny Collection's Rosa Sports Bra ($48) & Rosa Pocket Bike Short in Vineyard Dark Red ($54).

2. She Also Does This Modified Plank

Most people struggle to execute a standard plank, but not Eva. She is in such fantastic shape that she can do an extremely tough modification, which involves planking and then rotating her body to the side, back into plank, and then to the other side. She shared a video of this move over the weekend. Eva also wore Buffbunny in this workout video, the Revolution Sports Bra ($48) & Rosa Legging in Midnight Navy ($68).

3. Her Leg Workout Is Intense

To kick off 2022, Eva shared a video detailing her leg workout, and it was just as brutal as you might expect. For most of the moves she wore her resistance band to maximize the burn as she squatted, lunged, and kick-backed her way through the routine.

4. Here Is What Her Overall Workout Routine Looks Like

According to another one of Eva’s videos, she starts her workouts with some stretches, followed by some exercises on her JumpSport trampoline—including a variety of crunches. Next, she lifts weights. “I do very heavy weights,” she told Women’s Health in the March 2022 issue. “I feel like my body changes the most when I do that—I wear a heart rate monitor, and I can see my heart rate spike from just doing a heavy bicep curl,” she added. After lifting weights, Eva does some more ab exercises, including bicycles. Finally, she stretches.

5. She Works Out Daily

Eva works out every single day for up to 75 minutes. “If I have to wake up early and take a flight, when I land, I’ll go for a walk because I didn’t get to work out,” she told Women’s Health. “Even if it’s just stretching, I need to do something.”

Her typical workout starts with a five minute warmup, followed by a few circuits of strength training, “either lower or upper body depending on what day it is and I always finish with ab work,” she said.

5. She Loves Riding Horses

Lori was a competitive equestrian for many years and still enjoys riding. “It’s very freeing. My mind constantly is going at a million things 24/7; it’s hard for me to shut my brain down. When I’m on a horse, literally that is all I’m thinking about: me in that moment and me and that horse. You have to be very in tune to the horse and what’s going on, and picking up on them and the environment, and making sure there’s not anything around that could maybe spook them or scare them,” she told Bustle. “I did show jumping, so I’m paying attention to my distance from the jumps and the setup, and is [the horse] positioned right? So many things go into it, but it’s a very freeing experience.”

If I’m honest, I lost a little too much weight after my divorce, and I would be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy the number I saw. But that’s an unhealthy way to look at it. It should never be about the number. It should be about how you feel,” she explained. “I have been actively becoming strong again for me. I look at this pic now and I’m proud of myself for the hard work and commitment to loving myself. This body made two beautiful humans. I’m proud of my body." She mentioned feeling even better after her breast augmentation and promoted Natrelle Breast Augmentation.

2. She Works Out with a Trainer

Jana’s go to diet rule? “I personally think everything in moderation,” she revealed. “I had a chocolate chip cookie last night. I will eat another one tonight. I don’t think you should deprive yourself of anything. I think, eat when you are hungry. But all-around diet is how I do it.”

5. Exercise Boosts Her Mental Health

“Still not feeling 100 percent,” Jana explained earlier this year in an Instagram story video. “But I'm still going to run it out, sweat it out." She once explained to Us Weekly that the mental health benefits of exercise are a motivating factor. “Working out for me is my sanity…Even just going for a walk, that is a place where I come back and I'm like, 'I feel good, I feel balanced. Working out is 100% how I stay level."

Tag a friend or save for later! 30-60 sec each move or 10-15 reps, 4-5 sets!”

4. She Strength Trains

Jenkins likes to strength train to stay in shape. She is seen doing exercises in this Instagram post.

Drop a ‘Yes’ if you’re gonna give this a try! Share with your friends or save for later! Get it in! 10-15 reps per exercise. I’m using 10 lbs Dumbbells but if these movements are new for you then I recommend 3-5 lbs to start! You can also do it with no weights & it will still be effective!”

5. She Eats Healthy

Jenkins makes sure to eat a healthy diet. She shared some of her favorite healthy snacks in this Instagram video. Jenkins enjoyed berries, Greek yogurt, and boiled eggs.

1. She Stretches

In a YouTube video, Brie revealed a crucial practice to maintain flexibility and avoid injury on set. "Stretching is a huge part of exercise," she said. "This is great for mornings, before workouts, as you're winding down your day, or, if you're somebody like me who's spending the majority of their time at a desk looking at Zoom all day, it's good to incorporate a couple of stretches and be kind to yourself." Some of her go-to stretches include cat-cow, toe sitting, and cobra pose.

2. She Starts Her Day with Celery Juice

Brie tries to drink celery juice every morning. "I hold my stress in my stomach and this feels very soothing/healing in my opinion," she said in an Instagram story.

3. Her Workouts Are Seriously Hardcore

Brie doesn’t mess around when it comes to exercise. Her workouts with Walsh are seriously intense, involving lots of weights, one-armed pull-ups, and even pushing a 5,000 pound Jeep down the street. “Pushing myself past my limit, honey! Doesn’t always look pretty but gosh it feels amazing,” she wrote in one of her post, asking her trainer, “how heavy were these again?”

4. She Allows Herself to Cheat

Clearly, Brie eats healthy most of the time, but isn’t afraid to indulge in her favorite treats on occasion. “Ice cream, anyone?” she captioned this photo of herself holding a cone.

5. She Focuses On the “Fun” of Fitness

To keep herself motivated, Brie focuses on the enjoyment factor of fitness. “Even after years of training, I still try to find ways to get out of working out. Luckily @risemovement keeps me motivated by prefacing a new move with ‘this will be fun,’” she captioned an Instagram post.

6. She’s All About Self-Care

Brie makes sure to prioritize self-care. “Sauna, massage, nature - does it get better?” she captioned a photo of herself during a wellness getaway at Wilderness Reserve.

Leonie Hanne is living her best life in Thailand – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the German model flaunts her fantastic figure in a $750 Missoni bathing suit while enjoying a boating day in the tropics. “She dreamed of a tropical adventure 🦋,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Stunning,” commented one of her followers. ”So beautiful,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Coffee

Leonie enjoys the perks of caffeine. In one of her posts from Thailand, she drinks a cup of coffee at the poolside. According to the Cleveland Clinic, drinking coffee in moderation has several benefits. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Pilates

Leonie does Pilates at the super exclusive London studio Pilates in the Clouds. 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.

At-Home Workouts

Leonie tries to get a workout in daily, preferably in the morning. I still try to get up early to maintain a sense of routine. I start every day with a quick at-home workout and a homemade acai bowl, before starting work on emails and content creation. I’ve been getting really into TikTok lately, it’s funny and keeps me feeling energised!” she told Arcadia.

Community

It takes a village, according to Leonie. “Community is key! The people you surround yourself with are more important than ever, as we are all trying to find ways to stay connected without being physically present. Speaking to people either on the phone or through social media can shift your mindset and motivation more than ever before,” she says.

Small, Healthy Habits

Leonie focuses on maintaining small, healthy habits. “Do something every day that brings you joy. Even if that means having something small to look forward to, like having your favourite snacks around the house or changing into an outfit that makes you feel good about yourself,” she says.

Sophie Piper is embracing island life – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Love Island beauty shows off her fantastic figure in a swimsuit during a tropical vacation at Kandima Maldives with Josh Ritchie. “Island life,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps taken at the picturesque resort. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

She Doesn't Go Under the Knife

Sophie claims she hasn’t gone under the knife. “It’s your own body, you can do what you want to,” she told Grazia, weighing in on the show’s reputation for girls getting work done. “I wouldn’t have surgery myself; I don’t want it. I’ve got such a low pain tolerance as well; I’d be squirming around.”

She Gets Her Steps In

Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Sophie loves paddle boarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and cardio. Water sports can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140-pound male and 436 calories for a female of the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

She Skis

When Sophie hits the mountains, she throws on a pair of skis. “Ski club,” she captioned a photo. Research has linked downhill skiing to several health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, the prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress, and the occurrence of memory deficits decline.

She Loves Group Fitness

“You’ve got to be body confident,” Sophie told Grazia. One of her favorite sweat methods? Group fitness. “A few gym classes can’t hurt,” she said.

She Goes Snorkeling

On her recent Maldives vacation, Sophie and Josh snorkeled in the crystal clear water. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Tammy Hembrow is a fitness influencer and expert. She has her own app, called Tammy Fit. Hembrow has a lot of challenges on her app. Recently, she advertised a challenge with a workout video on Instagram. Hembrow captioned the post, “We are 3 days into our first @tammyfitapp challenge of the year & I am more motivated than everrrrr. (Sign ups are still open if you haven’t joined yet - there’s still time to catch up!! - link in bio). Soooo happy seeing so many of my girlies (and guys) in this challenge doing it with me!! And I CANNOT wait to see everyone’s results at the end of the 8 weeks. We got thissss 💪🏼”

She Does Pulldowns

Hembrow is seen doing pulldowns in her Instagram video. Piedmont reports that pulldowns have a lot of benefits. “The lat pulldown is a fantastic exercise for strengthening the latissimus dorsi muscle, the broadest muscle in your back. This muscle promotes good posture and spinal stability. Form is crucial when performing a lat pulldown to prevent injury and reap the best results.”

She Lifts Weights

Hembrow is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that using weights to workout has a lot of benefits. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

She Tracks Her Meals

Hembrow likes to track her meals on her app. She talked about the benefits of this in the caption of this “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. “Make sure to take advantage of the calorie/macro tracking features in the @tammyfitapp during this challenge guys. It can be really helpful in reaching specific goals quicker. And it also can help educate you on your food choices when it comes to nutrition, ratios, hidden calories, overeating or under eating etc. honestly I’d recommend any beginner try it out just to get a good feel for how you’re fuelling your body!! I feel like when people think of ‘meal tracking’ it can be seen as something that seems restrictive or something only bodybuilders do. When in reality it can be such a helpful tool and you can learn things that will actually encourage long term habits 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

She Loves Bananas

Tammy Hebrew has a banana snack.

Hembrow is seen enjoying bananas in her “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that bananas have a lot of benefits. “A single medium-sized banana offers about 32 mg of the mineral magnesium, which fulfills around 8% to 10% of your daily magnesium requirement. Magnesium is involved in many processes in your body, including: Blood pressure. Blood sugar levels. Building proteins. Maintaining bone. Muscle function. Nerve function.”

She Loves Cottage Cheese

Tammy Hebrew's snack the contains banana and cottage cheese.

Hembrow is seen enjoying her bananas with cottage cheese in the previous Instagram video. Cottage cheese is very healthy. UCLA Health reports, “Cottage cheese’s protein content and low calories make it an ideal food for weight management. Research shows that whether you are trying to lose weight or reduce your risk of overweight or obesity, eating a high-protein diet can help you feel full and satisfied for longer.”
