Influencer Tamara Kalinic Flaunts Fit Bod "tanning, swimming, sleeping"

Tamara Kalinic is an influencer focused on fashion and fitness, with a blog called Glam & Glitter. She prioritizes her mental and physical well-being, spending plenty of time outdoors by the water, working out, and eating healthy. “Current priorities: tanning, swimming, sleeping,” she said on Instagram. Here’s what Kalinic does to stay looking and feeling like the best version of herself.

1. She spends time near the water

She enjoys spending time outdoors, especially near the water. “These days… ☀️🌊,” she says on Instagram, with a slideshow of photos of her by the water. It’s so important to spend time outside for your mental health. As seen in the Mayo Clinic, “Biophilia means that we are wired to be connected to nature — that there's something healthy about having nature either in our presence or us being present in nature," says Dr. Brent Bauer, a general internal medicine physician at Mayo Clinic. "There's actually a lot of research on this topic. So it's no longer just, 'Nature sounds good.' We know it's actually really good. Those studies range from evaluating people who are in a city and then taken into a forest. What happens to blood pressure? What happens to heart rate? And in many, many studies, we do much better in the natural environment."

2. She chooses healthy food

In the same post as above that Kalinic captioned “these days… ☀️🌊,” she posted a colorful salad full of protein. According to Atrium Health, “eating the right amount of protein for your body can have numerous benefits, such as helping your body create antibodies to ward off illnesses and infections, helping your bloodstream carry oxygen throughout your body, blood sugar balance, diabetes management, increased energy, more strength and muscle growth from strength training workouts, [and] increased satiety and feelings of fullness.”

3. She walks the beach

In a series of photos of her on vacation, she’s strolling along the beach. According to the Mayo Clinic, “the faster, farther and more frequently you walk, the greater the benefits. For example, you may start out as an average walker, and then work your way up to walking faster and walking a mile in a shorter amount of time than an average walker, similar to power walkers. This can be a great way to get aerobic activity, improve your heart health and increase your endurance while burning calories.”

4. She skis

Spending time outdoors isn’t just for the summer. It’s important to get fresh air year round. “First morning coffee on the slopes! So happy to be back #stmoritz,” she said on Instagram video of her taking the lift to the top of the mountain. According to Ski Canada, “It’s well documented that skiing and snowboarding benefits cardiovascular health, overall fitness, strength, coordination, balance and more. Regardless of your health and fitness goals, strapping on a pair of skis or a snowboard is sure to fulfill some of them. Due to the versatility of skiing and snowboarding, it can encompass the benefits of a cardio workout, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) session, and strength training session, all in one fun activity.”

5. She splurges on occasion

No matter how fit and disciplined you are, sometimes you just need a good cinnamon bun that’s baked fresh, and really worth it. Splurging on occasion is just good for the soul. “[Cinnamon] roll kinda day. Wearing @khaite trousers and top, my Birkin 25 in Gold, @pradabeauty P59 Amarena lipstick and @armanibeauty Prisma Glass 07 kinda day ad,” she said on Instagram in a series of photos from Milan, Italy.
