Brooks revealed to Women’s Health that she is working on taking care of her mental health. “In the past I would wait until I’d find myself a bit overwhelmed or stressed [then] think ‘Oh, I need to take some time for myself’,” she says. “But this year, as we’ve all been more aware of mental health, I’ve tried to make time for myself before I got to a bad place. I’ve been making an effort to be more consistent about having balance and looking after myself.”

2. She Loves Reformer Pilates

Brooks revealed some of her favorite workouts to Women’s Health. She says that she loves doing reformer pilates. “It’s the best thing I’ve found for my body. I find that it’s kind of meditative when I do it, it’s not just, ‘Oh I’ve got to go work out now,’ it’s something I actually really enjoy. Ideally, I like to do reformer two to three times a week. That makes me feel great.”

3. She Walks

On days when Brooks doesn’t do pilates, she likes to go on walks. “I don’t feel like I need to exercise but if I do, it’s just something like a gentle walk,” she tells Women’s Health “At one stage I was overdoing it and trying to go every day, just because I loved it so much, but I think my body actually resisted that and it just felt like a bit too much, so I pulled it back, which is better for my body.”

4. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Brooks has amazing skin, and she takes care of it. She revealed her tips to Body & Soul. “When‌ ‌it‌ ‌comes‌ ‌to‌ ‌skincare,‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌morning ‌I‌ ‌wash‌ ‌my‌ ‌face‌ ‌with‌ ‌cleanser‌ ‌and‌ ‌usually‌ ‌spritz‌ ‌with‌ Minenssey‌ Hydrating‌ ‌SOS‌ ‌Mist‌ ‌as‌ ‌it‌ ‌makes‌ ‌me‌ ‌feel‌ ‌fresh‌ ‌and‌ ‌ready‌ ‌for‌ ‌the‌ ‌day.‌ ‌I‌ ‌always‌ ‌apply‌ ‌sunscreen.‌ ‌I‌ ‌love‌ ‌La‌ ‌Roche-Posay‌ ‌SPF‌ ‌50,‌ ‌it‌ ‌absorbs‌ ‌really‌ ‌well.‌ ‌As‌ ‌soon‌ ‌as‌ ‌I‌ ‌get‌ ‌home‌, ‌I‌ ‌remove‌ ‌my‌ ‌makeup‌ ‌with‌ ‌a‌ ‌micellar‌ ‌water,‌ ‌I‌ ‌will‌ ‌usually‌ ‌cleanse‌ ‌again‌ ‌to‌ ‌make‌ ‌sure‌ ‌I‌ ‌have‌ ‌removed‌ ‌everything‌ ‌then‌ ‌finish‌ ‌off‌ ‌with‌ ‌Minenssey‌ ‌Hydrating‌ ‌Quenching‌ ‌Aqua‌ ‌Cream‌. ‌

5. She Loves Massages

Brooks tells Body & Soul that she loves to get massages. She says that they help take care of her body. “I’ll‌ ‌usually‌ ‌get‌ ‌a‌ ‌massage‌ ‌at‌ ‌least‌ ‌once‌ ‌a‌ ‌month‌ ‌to‌ ‌release‌ ‌tension.‌ ‌I‌ ‌find‌ ‌it‌ ‌helps‌ ‌a‌ ‌lot‌ ‌with‌ ‌lymphatic‌ ‌drainage‌ ‌too.‌” "Lymph normally does an important job for your body. It carries foreign material and bacteria away from your skin and body tissues, and it circulates infection-fighting cells that are part of your immune system," says Harvard Health. "Lymph flows slowly through the network of vessels called your lymphatic system. Lymph flow stops at points along the way to be filtered through lymph nodes. Lymph nodes are small bean-shaped organs that are part of your immune system."

Puerto Rican star Gabriela Berlingeri is enjoying some much-needed beach time. The jewelry designer and girlfriend of superstar Bad Bunny shared pictures of herself posing in crystal-clear waters in a green bikini and white sun hat. “More pics from the cam,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Berlingeri 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. Lots of Swimming

One glance at Berlingeri’s social media shows how much she loves swimming. “Swimming is one of the few activities that work your whole body,” says the British Heart Foundation. “Breaststroke, backstroke, front crawl, butterfly and even doggy paddle get your legs and arms moving. This in turn works your back and core muscles.”

2. Outdoorsy Type

Berlingeri is no couch potato—she enjoys being outside as much as possible. “I take many of my individual clients and classes outdoors,” says certified fitness instructor ShaNay Norvell. “They often tell me it doesn’t feel like as much of a workout as running on the treadmill, even though they are still getting a great calorie burn.”

3. Snacking on Mango

Mango.,Tropical,Fruits.,On,A,Wooden,Background.,Top,View.,CopyShutterstock

Berlingeri loves fresh sliced mango for an on-the-go snack, which is a great source of vitamin C. "Vitamin C is good for immunity," says Maya Vadiveloo, assistant professor in the department of nutrition and food sciences at the University of Rhode Island. "It's an antioxidant so it can help with oxidative stress in the body. The primary benefit, in addition to being a really good source of vitamin C, is that (mangoes) are a decent source of vitamin A, folate and are pretty high in fiber, which is beneficial for colon cancer prevention, heart disease and weight control."

4. She’s a Singer

Singing and performing are creative endeavors very important to Berlingeri. “Singing at the Estadio Azteca was something I never in my life imagined doing, let alone daring,” she says. “I don't know how I did it, but I did it. I'm thankful for the people who motivated me to achieve it because I couldn't do it alone. Thanks to my mother for giving birth to me in Puerto Rico and with my father for raising me on this island that I love so much.”

5. Blue Therapy

Berlingeri loves to be by the ocean as much as she can. Having access to blue space is shown to have mental health benefits. "Increased views of blue space is significantly associated with lower levels of psychological distress," says Amber L. Pearson, PhD, MPH, assistant professor of health geography and a member of MSU's Water Science Network.

Read on to see 5 ways Karoline Lima 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 Swims

Lima spends a lot of time in the water. She has a lot of photos on Instagram of herself either at the beach or the pool. She likes to swim to stay in shape. Lima shared this photo of herself wading in the waves at sunset. She captioned the post, “Happy and light as if there's no strife amen.” She also shared these photos of herself wading in the ocean, captioning it, “Wonder where I am?”

2. She Rides Jet-Skis

Swimming isn’t the only activity Lima does at the beach to stay active. She likes to get her heart racing and adrenaline flowing. Lima likes to ride jet-skis at the beach. Lima posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself jet-skiing in Praia das Toninhas. She captioned the post, “Fucking beautiful you know.”

3. She Plays With Dogs

Lima is a dog lover. She owns two Pomeranians, and she prominently features them on her Instagram. Lima posted this photo of herself carrying her dogs outside. She captioned the post, “Can I make a frame of this picture? Full moon.” She also shared this photo with her dogs, captioning it, “Oreo and Luquinhas passing by to send you a kiss.”

4. She Benefits From the Sun

“Sometimes a little bit of sunshine is the best medicine. A walk in the park or a bike ride probably puts you in a good mood, and a moderate amount of sun is also good for your physical health. While you’re outside soaking up rays, your body is busy making vitamin D. That’s good news, because this hormone that’s boosted by exposure to sunlight plays an important role in women’s health,” says Johns Hopkins.

5. She Loves the Beach

“Beaches provide many recreational opportunities for millions of people. Boating, fishing, swimming, walking, beachcombing, bird-watching, playing and sunbathing are among the common activities beachgoers enjoy. Beaches provide protection to residents living near the ocean by acting as a buffer against the high winds and waves of powerful storms or rough seas,” says the EPA.

1. She Does Pilates

Gabriella loves doing pilates on the reformer. “It’s the best thing I’ve found for my body,” she told Women’s Health Australia. “I find that it’s kind of meditative when I do it, it’s not just, ‘Oh I’ve got to go work out now,’ it’s something I actually really enjoy. Ideally, I like to do reformer two to three times a week. That makes me feel great. And on the days I’m not doing it, I don’t feel like I need to exercise but if I do, it’s just something like a gentle walk. At one stage I was overdoing it and trying to go every day, just because I loved it so much, but I think my body actually resisted that and it just felt like a bit too much, so I pulled it back, which is better for my body.”

2. She Takes Supplements

Gabriella is all about supplements. “I‌ ‌take‌ ‌fish‌ ‌oil‌ ‌tablets,‌ ‌Floradix‌ ‌for‌ ‌iron,‌ ‌and‌ ‌magnesium,” she revealed to Body + Soul.

3. She Gets Massages

Gabriella prioritizes self-care. One of the things she does? “I’ll‌ ‌usually‌ ‌get‌ ‌a‌ ‌massage‌ ‌at‌ ‌least‌ ‌once‌ ‌a‌ ‌month‌ ‌to‌ ‌release‌ ‌tension.‌ ‌I‌ ‌find‌ ‌it‌ ‌helps‌ ‌a‌ ‌lot‌ ‌with‌ ‌lymphatic‌ ‌drainage‌ ‌too,” she told Body + Soul.

4. She Takes Saunas

Gabriella also likes to turn up the heat. “I‌ ‌like‌ ‌to‌ ‌sauna‌ ‌after‌ ‌workouts,‌ ‌I‌ ‌haven't‌ ‌tried‌ ‌ice‌ ‌baths‌ ‌yet‌ ‌- but‌ ‌all‌ ‌my‌ ‌friends‌ ‌swear‌ ‌by‌ ‌them‌ ‌so‌ ‌I‌ ‌think‌ ‌that’s‌ ‌next‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌list‌ ‌to‌ ‌try,” she told Body + Soul.

5. She Listens to Her Body

When it comes to how often she works out, Gabriella lets her body dictate. “I‌ ‌listen‌ ‌to‌ ‌my‌ ‌body.‌ ‌My‌ ‌work‌ ‌schedule‌ ‌is‌ ‌all‌ ‌over‌ ‌the‌ ‌place‌ ‌so‌ ‌I‌ ‌fit‌ ‌in‌ ‌workouts‌ ‌where‌ ‌I‌ ‌can,‌ ‌and‌ ‌when‌ ‌I'm‌ ‌exhausted,‌ ‌I‌ ‌just‌ ‌let‌ ‌my‌ ‌body‌ ‌rest,” she told Body + Soul. ‌

6. She Prioritizes Mental Health

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.”

It’s hard to believe that Jennifer Aniston is 55 and turning 56 in February! Since soaring to fame in 1994, the Friends star has hardly aged in the three decades that have passed – and she has never been secretive about her devotion to health and wellness. Her hard work over the years has paid off through her strong and lean body and ageless looks. Here is everything you need to know about Jennifer Aniston’s approach to longevity.

She Maintains a High Protein Diet

"My nutrition is very much the same. It's usually a lot of high protein, vegetables, salads, soups,” she tells People. “I do 80/20. I give myself days where I can have whatever I want. I don’t deprive myself,” she added to TODAY. Why should you consider amping up your protein intake? According to clinical trials, consuming more protein than the recommended dietary allowance not only reduces body weight (BW) but also enhances body composition by decreasing fat mass while preserving fat-free mass (FFM) in both low-calorie and standard-calorie diets.

She Cheats on Occasion

Jennifer allows herself to indulge in “everything I would possibly want on a weekend,” she told People. Her cheat meal “depends,” she says. “I mean, dare I sound repetitive, but Mexican food is a real favorite of mine. It's not even that much of a cheat, to be honest.

“I’ve become gentler with myself,” she says of her approach to fitness, which has “definitely evolved” over the years. “I find that I can be gentler on my body and still get the benefits of a great workout,” she told Prevention. She specifically loves P.Volve workouts, a functional fitness that helps you “function throughout the day” and “work out your essential muscle groups to keep your body strong,” she says. “So you can live a long, healthy, strong life.”

Aniston prioritizes hydration, drinking a whopping 100 ounces of water per day. "But occasionally I just have to have a Diet Coke—there's nothing like it!" According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is essential for various reasons. Water helps eliminate waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature regular, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

She Does Pilates, Spinning, Elliptical, and Running Workouts

“I had an injury last fall and I was only able to do Pilates, which I absolutely love. But I was missing that kind of sweat when you just go for it,” she recently told InStyle. “I'm going back to my 15-15-15, which is a 15-minute spin, elliptical, run. And then just old school: I can chase myself around a gym. I need some kind of movement, even if it's just 10 minutes a day on a trampoline.”
