Ginny & Georgia Star Brianne Howey Shows Off Washboard Abs in “Ice Ice Baby” Bikini Top

Brianne Howey knows how to grab attention. The Ginny & Georgia star recently dropped jaws on social media, sharing a photo of herself wearing a tinsley bikini top and matching skirt. “💎 ice ice baby 💎” she captioned the series of snaps. “Shine bright like a 💎,” one of her followers commented. “Wow!!! Love this look!” added Amanda Kloots. How does the actress of the hit Netflix show, currently the top television show on the streaming service, approach diet and fitness? Here is everything we know about her routine.

Howey is a Pilates girl. “I try to get fitness in where I can,” she told Marie Claire. “It’s definitely not an everyday thing for me. I’ll try to make it to Pilates,” she continued. I love the stretching and the toning. I’ll pick that over cardio any day.” 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.

She will also hit up a yoga class, she added to Marie Claire. There are many 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.”

Brianne also believes in talking it out. “I’ve been in therapy for so long now,” she told Byrdie. “I try to do it every week. And even when I’m on set, I will do phone calls with my therapist.  Having healthier tools and being able to unwire certain mindsets that we attune ourselves to growing up has been the biggest game-changer

She also tries to get her steps in. “The days that I can’t make it to a class, I just try to get some kind of movement in, and my favorite thing to do is walking to run my errands. I feel like I’ve checked two things off my list at once—I’ve moved my body and I’ve run some errands. And sometimes I just walk my dog to get the blood going and breathe in some new oxygen,” she said.

Mental and physical health is a priority for the star. “For me, self-care definitely starts from the inside out,” she told Marie Claire. “I don’t always have time, as I think most people don’t, to go sit and get a ton of treatments done, especially if it’s last minute and you’re not feeling great. You don’t have time to make appointments and go sit somewhere for a few hours. So, I try to fit in self-care at home, when I can, whether it’s right before bed or on the weekends. And I love using the 24 karat eye patches. They make me feel completely revitalized. And I just got this Olive and June nail kit because sometimes I can’t make a nail appointment. I am by no means good at doing my nails, but it looks like I’ve gotten gels done and I’ve done it myself.”
