Sommer Ray is a lot of things. She is a bodybuilder. She’s a fitness model and influencer. She’s a skincare maven, with her line IMARAÏS. And she’s recently started her DJ career. Ray recently shared a new photo on her Instagram story. In it, she wore a green shirt and brown shorts. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Sommer Ray stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Makes Time For Herself

Ray tells Heatworld that she always makes time for herself. "Sundays are all about relaxation,” she says. “I love to take a hot bath, moisturise, curl up in my robe, and de-stress after a busy week. And of course, hang out with my pets. I’m a huge animal fanatic and grew up on a ranch in Colorado surrounded by them, so spending as much time as possible with them is really important to me. It’s my favourite pastime."

2. She Has A Simple Skincare Routine

Ray tells Heatworld that she keeps her skincare simple, and that she kept this in mind when developing her line. "I developed IMARAÏS with my own personal experiences in mind but also taking into account that everyone’s skin is unique. I always have my friends try out my IMARAÏS gummies, and they get hooked quickly as they just taste so good! I feel that most people don’t need a 12-step skincare routine, we need long-lasting solutions that start from within and effective ingredients. That’s exactly what IMARAÏS stands for."

3. She Stays Hydrated

Ray makes sure that she’s staying hydrated. She tells Heatworld that this is one of her biggest wellness secrets. "Making sure I drink enough water, although I am always careful in making sure I don’t waste it. Water wastage is a huge issue that people don’t necessarily think about, but it’s really important to me.”

4. She Has A Morning Routine

Ray likes to start her day off on the right foot. She shared her morning routine with Heatworld. "To me, the key to mornings is getting active as early as possible. Get your heart rate up by doing a workout or going for a run. I always eat a healthy breakfast too, as it sets me up for the busy day ahead. Also, do something to make yourself feel confident. Put on a cute outfit, smile at yourself in the mirror, and just be happy to be you!"

5. She Listens to Her Body

Ray shared some of her fitness secrets in an interview with Cosmopolitan. She says that she does a variety of things to keep herself in shape. "If my glutes are sore, I tell myself, 'I probably shouldn't work them today,' " she says. "I just listen to my body. There’s not a certain exercise or specific workout that’s beneficial. I switch it up every day and try to make it fun, because as soon as it feels like a job, you don’t want to do it."

Megan Williams, a popular social media influencer, is no stranger to pushing boundaries and embracing challenges. Known for her chic workout outfits and adventurous spirit, Megan often shares glimpses of her active lifestyle on Instagram. Recently, she showcased her latest Alo workout ensemble—a sleek black bra, matching shorts, and a gray long-sleeve shirt. Beyond the style, Megan's dedication to fitness is evident in her diverse activities, from running marathons to hiking the Grand Canyon. “I feel my best when I try new things and push myself out of my comfort zone,” she shares. Whether it's swimming in the Mediterranean or playing tennis, Megan's approach to fitness reflects a commitment to both physical and mental growth, inspiring her followers to live boldly and stay active.

She Runs

Williams shares a lot of her favorite workouts on her Instagram. One thing she likes to do is run. Williams even ran the New York City Marathon. She shared this post on Instagram of her experience, captioning it, “NYC MARATHON!! Wow what an unforgettable day. 8 weeks ago when I got this opportunity, I had only ever really ran 5Ks. These last few weeks have been filled with pushing myself both mentally and physically, I really didn’t know if I could do it. But I have learnt every time I take on a new challenge I get far more back in return. I pretty much smiled my way around the 26.2 miles yesterday. NYC crowds are just sooooo incredible. I wanna say a huge thankyou to the number of strangers who cheered me on as well as my incredible friends who gave me so much energy! Feeling very proud and very grateful to @newbalance x @bambambaklava and especially @austinbensmith who assured me I could do it when I almost pulled out. 🩵”

She Swims

Williams likes to swim to keep herself in shape. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself enjoying time by the water. Williams shared this post highlighting a trip she took to Europe. In it, she is seen going for a dip in the sea. Williams captioned the post, “European summer 🩵 the oh so blue Mediterranean.”

She Pushes Herself

Williams is always striving to push herself to try new things. One thing she tried was going scuba diving. Williams shared this photo on Instagram of her experience. She captioned the post, “It’s A-OK 👌 I’ve realized I feel my best when I try new things and push myself out of my comfort zone. Things that scared me before. Sometimes it’s good to remember being scared should not get in your way of trying something new 🤍💙”

She Plays Tennis

Another thing that Williams likes to do to keep herself in shape is playing tennis. She shared this set of photos of herself on the court on Instagram. The Columbia Association states that tennis has a lot of benefits. “Tennis is an excellent full-body workout that releases feel-good endorphins to help you relax and relieve tension. Its low-impact nature also means your joints and bones will thank you.”

She Hikes

Williams likes to go hiking to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself and her friends hiking in the Grand Canyon. “Hello!! Channeling my inner Lara Croft.. Just spent the last two weeks off the grid exploring the Grand Canyon - traveling down the Colorado river, white water rafting and camping with a group of 15 of us. It was already a scary trip for me as I have never done anything like this but an extra challenge from having fractured my wrist 3 weeks before! But the challenges made it 100 x more rewarding! Will share some pictures to try and show you just how incredible the Grand Canyon is 🙌🏽 Very proud of myself for doing it and grateful to be one of the few people who get to see this part of the world in this way!”

Sommer Ray is one of the most successful fitness models of all time. She shares a lot of workout secrets on social media and her website. Ray also has her own skincare line, IMARAÏS. Ray recently hit the gym, and made sure to look cute doing so. She shared a photo on her Instagram story of herself in a brown top and gray pants. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Sommer Ray stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Doesn’t Deny Herself

Ray shared some of her diet secrets in this post on her blog. In it, she revealed that while she tries to eat healthy, she also doesn’t deny herself. “On the weekends, and on some weekdays, too, I also like to have a drink — typically, tequila — and whatever else I'm craving. If I want a slice of pizza, I have a slice of pizza. I want to look good, but I also want to enjoy life.

2. She Gets Enough Protein

For Ray, protein plays a big role in her diet. “I try to eat 70 grams of protein a day to maintain my glute muscle mass by starting most mornings with a protein shake, my first of six small meals throughout the day,” she wrote on her blog post. “Sometimes, I'll prepare grilled chicken, veggies and steamed white rice for each of these meals, but more often I'll eat out.

3. She Finds Healthy Options At Restaurants

Ray loves to eat out, however, that doesn’t mean that she eats a ton of unhealthy food. She shared her secrets for finding healthy options at restaurants on her post. “I love In-and-Out Burger! I take my burger without the bun. Then I get my starch later from starchy veggies and whole grains. At Jersey Mike's I'll usually double down on turkey to fill myself up with protein. At regular restos (like I said, I love eating out) I look for seasoned chicken with veggies and sweet potatoes for carbs.

4. She Does Hamstring Curls

Sommer.Ray.BlogSommer Rays Shop

In her blog post, Ray revealed that she does hamstring curls. She also says that she has found ways to do more intense curls. “Instead of just lying face down and hooking my ankles behind the bar to engage the back of my legs to bring the bar towards my butt (as directed), I lie face-up with my upper back on the pad, the soles of my feet on the ground, and the bar positioned against my hips. Then, I engage my hamstrings and butt to lift my hips against the resistance until my body forms a straight line between my knees and shoulders.

5. She Has Long-Term Skincare Secrets

Sommer.RaySommer Ray/Instagram

For Ray, skincare means finding long-term solutions. She tells Heatworld that this is how she developed IMARAÏS skincare with this in mind. "Growing up I struggled with acne and dry skin, so skincare has always been something that’s fascinated me. Topical solutions just never seemed to work quite right, and I always wanted to avoid heavy medications or chemicals. I developed IMARAÏS with my own personal experiences in mind but also taking into account that everyone’s skin is unique. I always have my friends try out my IMARAÏS gummies, and they get hooked quickly as they just taste so good! I feel that most people don’t need a 12-step skincare routine, we need long-lasting solutions that start from within and effective ingredients. That’s exactly what IMARAÏS stands for."

Jess Hunt is a fashion influencer and the founder of Refy. She has a large following on social media. Hunt recently took a Pilates class to help keep herself in shape. She shared a mirror selfie on her Instagram story from the studio. In it, Hunt modeled a chic set of workout clothes.

She Does Pilates

Jess Hunt shared a post pilates selfie.

Hunt likes to do Pilates to keep herself in shape. The Cleveland Clinic states that Pilates has a lot of health benefits. “Some of the principles that guide the Pilates method include concentration on each movement, use of the abdomen and low back muscles, flowing, precise movement patterns and controlled breathing. Depending on the exercise, Pilates routines can be performed on specially designed apparatuses, including a bed-like structure called a reformer, or more simply on a mat or blanket. Pilates is a form of strength training, but it doesn’t look like some of the other strength training exercises you might be familiar with. Pilates focuses more on improving muscle tone than building muscles, but the result is similar: greater stability and endurance. Pilates isn’t going to bulk you up — if anything, it’s designed to cultivate a longer, leaner look. Still, it can lay a strong physical foundation for muscle-building activities — and may even reduce your likelihood of injury.”

She Prioritizes Self-Care

Hunt shared some of her wellness secrets with Net-A-Porter. “Sunday is my self-care day,” she says. “Or, rather, my self-care evening. I have a shower and use a textured exfoliating mitt and then cover myself with Laura Mercier’s Ambre Vanillé Souffle Body Crème. Or, if I’m having a bath, I’ll use lots of oil. I love to use a mask, usually from 111Skin, either for brightening or hydrating; and I always have

She Saw A Dermatologist

Hunt shared some of her skincare secrets with Net-A-Porter. “I have super-dry skin but, a year ago, I went to see a dermatologist, who put me on an incredible SkinCeuticals regimen and it’s made my skin so much better,” she said. “I simply cleanse and then use its Hydrating B5 serum, Phyto Corrective serum and Ultra Facial Defense SPF50+ Facial Sunscreen. I also love the Ren Clean Skincare Radiance Brightening Dark Circle Eye Cream – it works, instantly.”

She Stays Hydrated

Hunt tells Net-A-Porter that she makes sure to keep her skin hydrated. “On a ‘bad face day’ my skin can get really dry, so I use a richer cream – the SkinCeuticals Epidermal Repair treatment really helps me – I’ll put it all over my face like a face mask, as it just fixes my skin. I also drink loads of water – if I’m looking puffy then I know I have to drink more. And I always do my Brow Sculpt – good brows really help freshen the face!”

She Doesn’t Diet

Hunt tells Net-A-Porter that she doesn’t like to diet. “I try not to follow a diet as I find it restrictive and it can control your life. I used to model and was so conscious of my weight and what I ate. Some days I would only eat almonds – I was so miserable, but I thought that was what models did. I try to eat intuitively now and breakfast is my favorite meal. But, if I wake up and I’m not hungry, I don’t eat until about 11am.”

From squats to cardio, she shows how to improve posture and strength.

Noelle Leyva is a model and influencer. She is known for her fitness content. Last month, she celebrated the holidays on Instagram. In a post, Leyva is seen in red sweats. She captioned it, “Can’t wait for Christmas.”

She Does Squats

Leyva shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. She included a video of herself doing squats. According to The Cleveland Clinic, squats can improve your posture. “Poor posture can cause all kinds of problems, including back pain, neck pain, headaches and an overall lack of flexibility. But working your erector spinae muscles, like through squatting, can help strengthen them and improve your posture.”

She Does Hamstring Curls

Leyva included a video of herself doing hamstring curls in her Instagram story highlight. Asphalt Green states that doing these can have a lot of benefits. “Hamstring curls are a great way to balance the muscles that you work when you’re doing leg extensions. This exercise is also good for people with sedentary jobs who don’t get a lot of walking in. Even pro cyclists can benefit from using this machine, since biking works the quads so heavily and doesn’t do as much for the hamstrings. With hamstring curls, you’re essentially doing the opposite motion to leg extensions. You’re exerting force by bending and pulling with your legs instead of pushing with them.”

She Strength Trains

In her Instagram story highlight, Leyva is seen doing strength training exercises like pushdowns and using weights. Strength training is very beneficial. The Mayo Clinic states, “Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls.”

She Does Cardio

Noelle Leyva shares a post-cardio selfie.

Leyva revealed in her Instagram story that she likes to do cardio workouts. Cardio has a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “A good cardiovascular workout will have you consistently breathing faster than you would while resting. The result: More oxygen in your blood for your heart to pump to the rest of your body.”

She Does Pulldowns

Leyva is also seen doing lateral pulldowns in her Instagram story highlight. These have a lot of benefits. Piedmont says, “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.”

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.”

Alice De Bortoli doesn’t just light up Instagram with her stunning fashion and effortless style—she also shares the secrets behind her enviable beach-ready physique. The Italian influencer keeps her followers in the loop when it comes to fitness, beauty, and wellness, proving that looking and feeling great is all about consistency. From skincare rituals to core-sculpting workouts, De Bortoli’s daily habits make it clear that staying in shape is about more than just hitting the gym. Whether she’s cooking up homemade meals, breaking a sweat, or showing off a fresh new look, she’s all about feeling her best from the inside out. Here are five of her go-to habits for maintaining a strong, confident, and glowing presence all year long.

She Takes Care Of Her Skin

De Bortoli has impressive skin. Naturally, she takes care of it on a regular basis. De Bortoli shared this video on Instagram sharing her skincare routine. She captioned it, “The secret to perfect skin? Here is my step by step routine! ✨💦🎀 What product can you absolutely not live without?”

She Changed Her Hair Color

De Bortoli recently changed her hair color. She explained why in the caption of this Instagram post. “The good thing about this color is that it does not require frequent touch-ups and it easily adapts to natural hair growth, it is versatile and can enhance any body and face shape 🧡for those who are tired of blonde or brown, bronde is the solution to change harmony without distortion 🤍for those who have a fair complexion, the most golden tone is recommended 🤎 for the dark complexion, on the other hand, more ash brown ❤️ 🔥what can I say... For me the bronde conquered, and what do you think?”

She Cooks

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.”

Kristin Cavallari is a reality TV and fashion icon. Since she debuted on Laguna Beach, people have clamoured for her fashion and beauty secrets. Cavallari recently shared her eye makeup secrets on Instagram, after several people asked for them. She captioned the post, “This is for the girlies in my DMs asking about this eye every time I do it. Sorry the lighting is awful. I also don’t know why the audio isn’t in sync for half of it 🫣 but here ya go 💗”

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.”
