Gautami Kapoor is balancing in her workout clothes. In a new social media post the Indian actress and model shows off her impressive balance. “The ramp you walk on is the ramp you own!!!! Failed the first attempt but tried again!!!!! If I can do it so can you !!! A big thank you to @theshilpashetty who motivates me and makes me strive better in my fitness journey. Concentration, balance and agility put to test,” she captioned the Instagram video. How does the 49-year-old approach diet and fitness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. Pilates

Gautami is big into pilates. “That’s thé wonderful thing about pilates, it looks easy until you try to do it,” she joked in one of the many videos she has posted of herself doing pilates, a great workout per the Mayo Clinic. 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, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

2. Strength Training

Gautami also spends a lot of time at the gym lifting weights. “Don’t decrease the goal. Increase the effort🔥🔥The 30kg day🏋️‍♀️” she wrote in a caption. 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

3. Dance

Gautami is an avid dancer and loves taking Zumba classes. “My life mantra these days -- WORRY LESS ZUMBA MORE,” she wrote about a video. Dancing is a great workout for many reasons. Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.

4. Goal Setting

Gautami understands that getting in shape takes time. She sets goals and works toward them. “Long way to go..... but getting there slowly !!! Flab to flat.... hopefully some day!!!!one day at a time 💪🏾💪🏾..” she captioned a post earlier in her health journey.

5. Yoga

Gautami is also a yogi, a great body-mind workout according to 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.”

Khushi Kapoor isn’t afraid of showing off her figure. She shares a bunch of gorgeous photos on social media. Kapoor recently shared a new set of photos on her Instagram page. In them, she is seen in a black coat, a swimsuit, and sitting down. Kapoor received a lot of praise in her comments. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Khushi Kapoor stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Works With A Trainer

Kapoor works with trainer, Namrata Purohit, to help her stay in shape. Purohit shares a bunch of posts on Instagram of the two of them exercising. The Australian Institute of Fitness reports that having a trainer leads to a lot of benefits. “Having an educated personal trainer beside you to demonstrate the correct posture and technique is invaluable. A personal trainer will ensure clients are performing exercises correctly and efficiently, in order to maximise results. Good form when performing exercises is also essential in reducing the risk of injury. Many people every year are seriously injured by performing exercises they have not received training for, and this can impact their health and fitness for a long time. Having someone trained in how to execute certain tasks will greatly reduce the level of risk and increase the effectiveness of your fitness routine.”

2. She Does Fun Workouts

Purohit makes sure to have fun when Kapoor works out with her. In this video, the two are seen tapping lights while in plank position. Purohit talked about why she makes Kapoor’s sessions fun in the caption. “Playing a game and burning it up with @khushi05k 🔥 fitness is so much more than we think - reaction time, mind body coordination, focus, concentration and of course the obvious strength, stability, balance! It all matters ⭐️ and we make sure we work on it all! And have fun while we are at it.”

3. She Does Full Body Workouts

When it comes to working out, Kapoor doesn’t skip a part of her body. Purohit does a lot of full-body workouts with her. Purohit shared this video on Instagram of herself and Kapoor doing a session. In it, they are seen doing squats and tricep and bicep curls with cables and a bar. Purohit captioned the post, “A full body workout this morning with @khushi05k ! 🔥 Working on everything.. strength, mobility, balance, stability and more.”

4. She Does Pilates

Kapoor does a lot of Pilates with Purohit. Her trainer shared this photo of the two of them using a reformer on Instagram. The Houston Methodist states that Pilates has a lot of benefits. “As far as what muscles Pilates works, it's technically considered a total body workout. In working the entire body, though, Pilates' movements are primarily designed to target your core muscles, including your: Abdominal muscles. Hip muscles. Gluteal muscles. Lower and upper back muscles. Inner thigh muscles. The goal is to be in total control of your body as you move. That requires beginning from your central core muscles and using the stability these muscles provide to smoothly control your arms, legs and other extremities.”

5. She Gets Her Vitamin D

Vitamin D, often referred to as the "sunshine vitamin," offers a myriad of health benefits when obtained from sunlight exposure. The primary natural source of this essential vitamin is the ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation emitted by the sun. When our skin is exposed to sunlight, it triggers the synthesis of vitamin D within our bodies. This crucial vitamin plays a vital role in maintaining optimal health. Firstly, it aids in the absorption and regulation of calcium and phosphorus, promoting strong and healthy bones. Additionally, vitamin D contributes to a robust immune system, reducing the risk of various infections and diseases. It also plays a role in supporting cardiovascular health, managing blood pressure, and reducing inflammation. Moreover, vitamin D is associated with improved mental health and mood regulation. Adequate sunlight exposure, while maintaining proper sun safety practices, can contribute significantly to fulfilling the body's vitamin D requirements and reaping these numerous health benefits.

Read on to see 5 ways Shweta Sharma 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 Puts in “Hard Work” at the Gym

Shweta trains regularly with Tridev Pandey, who shares clips of their sessions on social media. “And you should never give up because Hardwork pays off 💪🏼 @battatawada getting stronger every day,” Pandey captioned this video of Shwetavdoing jump squats, pushups, frontrolls, and strength training.

2. She Jet Skis

Shweta enjoys jet skiing, a great workout on the water. “One of the best experiences I had- The Jet Ski Safari!” she captioned a photo of herself on a jet skiing trip. “We headed North for a good 20 km (60-70 ki speed mein) weaving our way up past islands, beaches, sandbars and through mangroves where we then stoped at a tropical bar on South Stradbroke Island for 🍻 before turning back to ride the 20 km home. Can’t wait to do it again!” According to Health Fitness Revolution, the average 150-pound rider will burn a surprising 238 calories during a half-hour ride. The sport is also great for cardiovascular endurance.

3. She Changed Her Approach to Fitness

According to Pandey, Shweta majorly changed her approach to fitness to get into her best shape ever. “Tag that person who travels a lot & give excuses to not workout because of unavailability of gym. But if there is a will there is a way! Make your outdoors whether garden, beach, roof, balcony or your room your playground,” he captioned this workout video. “@battatawada changed her perspective on fitness and no access to gym doesn’t stop her to not workout. I’m very happy & proud how she has changed in these last 2 years from the girl who didn’t care about fitness and now need to workout wherever she is!”

4. She Boxes

Shweta also boxes her way to a hot body. "This kind of boxing has many health benefits, because it constantly requires you to think, change your position, and change your posture," physical therapist Linda Arslanian, director of rehabilitation services at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women's hospital tells Harvard Health."You're swinging your arms, moving the muscles of your arms and shoulders, increasing your upper-body strength. And when you're in the boxer crouch with a wide stance, with your knees slightly bent, you're strengthening your core muscles, back, and legs.”

5. She Hikes

In some of Shweta’s most recent photos she hikes in the snow. Some of the physical benefits 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.

1. She Has An Extensive Skincare Routine

Kapoor has incredible skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She broke down her routine to Indulge Express, and it’s pretty extensive. “Keeping my skin hydrated and fresh is most important for me as I prefer to have no makeup on during non-shoot days. So, I begin by using purifying face wash which not only cleanses my skin thoroughly but also gets rid of pimple-causing bacteria from the first use without drying my skin. Next, I use moisturising cream for that healthy, natural glow. Top this up with a sunscreen with SPF 30 and you are good to go!”

2. She Uses Face Tools

When it comes to skincare, Kapoor doesn’t just use products. She tells Indulge Express that she also likes to use tools on her face. Kapoor says that these tools help keep her skin healthy. “I also love using face tools like gua sha stones, jade rollers, and LED face masks for that extra care.”

3. She Has A Great Support System

Kapoor has a lot of success, and she says that her support system is one of the reasons behind it. She tells Indulge Express that in addition to her friends and family, her following is also a big part of her support team. “It feels great to find a support system in my followers who are always cheering me on. I try keeping it real and do things that truly make me happy.”

4. She Belly Dances

One workout that Kapoor likes to do is belly dancing. She works with trainer Sanjana Muthreja, to help her stay in shape. “Belly dancing is really a full body workout,” Muthreja told Vogue India. “It involves a lot of core work and engages your hips. It not only helps as a cardiovascular workout (you can lose up to a 1000 calories in one Tahitian class due to the constant explosive movements), but it also strengthens the core muscles, which helps to stabilise the spine.”

5. She Strength Trains

Kapoor posts a lot of videos and gym photos on Instagram. She posted this video of herself doing lateral pulldowns at the gym. She captioned it, “Getting there.” Strength training workouts have a lot of benefits for your body. According to this post from Chear.edu, “By toning muscles against resisting force, you build muscle mass while training your body to maintain typical range of motion."

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

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.

Needs Intro

She’s Consistent

Last year, Culpo was preparing for her wedding. She told E! News that she made sure to be consistent with her wellness in order to prepare. “Really trying to dial in [on] what I eat, how I workout, the workouts that I do. Trying to get them in consistently because you only get married once and I want to feel my best. But this past season it was just hard being so far away from my normal routine and where I typically live."

She Keeps Her Skin Healthy While Traveling

Culpo has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it, even while traveling. “I don't wear any makeup when traveling," she says to Travel + Leisure. "That's one rule because I do feel like you will have a higher chance of breaking out if you are wearing a full face of makeup. A few things I always have with me is some sort of a spray. I love Dr. Barbara Sturm or Caudalie or La Mer. I also absolutely love traveling with a makeup wipe, the Neutrogena wipes are great. Something to just take off the sweat you build up.”

She Keeps Her Skincare Simple

Culpo shared her skincare routines with Byrdie. She says that she keeps her morning and night routine simple. “I am always trying out new products, so what I gravitate toward is often changing. At night, I usually use an oil and a serum. Right now, I love the Clarins Double Serum. In the morning, I use a Vitamin C serum and an SPF, and, typically, I just rinse my skin with warm water instead of using a cleanser. It is something I swear by—it allows for the oils on my skin from sleeping to absorb naturally.”

She Uses Products With Vitamins

Culpo shared some of her favorite skincare products with Byrdie. She says that she uses ones that have vitamins in them. “I have noticed a huge difference in my skin with vitamin C and E. I love the Good Janes H2OMyGod Moisturizer—it's sort of an all-in-one moisturizer that has vitamin C and collagen peptides. As for vitamin E, I actually just purchase the oil from the drugstore. It is super cheap and great to put on any red marks I may get from an occasional breakout. The healing process is so much quicker when I am using Vitamin E oil.”

She Packs Healthy Snacks

Culpo makes sure to eat healthy. She shared some of the snacks she packs with her with Travel + Leisure. "I love the Kind bars. I love any sort of nuts, to be honest with you. They are a go-to snack for me. I would say Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% and some almonds would be perfect! Also, electrolytes to stay hydrated or some sort of collagen beauty powder or something."

Abigail Ratchford’s amazing body has helped her become one of the most famous models on the internet. The 32-year-old, who boasts over 9.1 million followers on Instagram alone, attributes her measurement-defying body to a few simple habits. Here is everything she does to stay fit at 32.

She Follows 4 Diet Rules

Abigail swears that abiding by simple rules helps her stay in shape. “I can’t diet. That just doesn’t work for me,” she told New Beauty. “I started to be healthier by first cutting out soda. Then, I stopped eating after 7 p.m. Finally, I started really watching my portions so I was eating fewer calories every day. And water—lots and lots of water.”

She UsesMyFitnessPal

Abigail explains being accountable for what she eats is crucial. While it’s not “rocket science,” she does use the MyFitnessPal app to track her eating. “I’m the type of person who likes to eat what I want. The app can help anyone do that—you can still eat great food, you just eat less of it,” she added New Beauty.

Pilates

Abigail is a fan of Pilates. “Group workout classes are so big right now, but I always get nervous around other people in settings like that. I have to go at my own pace without a bunch of distractions so, for me, Pilates with a one-on-one instructor works best. It’s not cheap, but then you also aren’t tempted to skip,” she said She added to Men’s Fitness via Muscle & Fitness that the workout “keeps you long and lean” — and the Mayo Clinic agrees. They say 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, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

Balanced Diet

“I love green juices and smoothies. Sometimes I’ll put some protein powder in the morning—I feel like the mix of vegetables, and vitamins and stuff that’s in them, really gives me a lot of energy in the morning. I love BBQ food—my ultimate cheat is a pulled pork sandwich, sweet potato fries, and macaroni and cheese from this great place in LA,” she told Men’s Fitness.

Strength Training

Ratchford also lifts weights. “Initially, I made the mistake that a lot of girls do and I was only doing cardio. I just really didn’t see too much change in my body. I’ve been listening to my girlfriends who are in great shape and they say you have to do weight training, you have to go in and do squats. That’s my new thing—I’ve been doing some resistance training, circuit training,” she told Men’s Fitness. The Mayo Clinic explains that 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
