Dancer and fitness guru Julianne Hough is giving fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse at how intense—and very fun—training can be for the star. Hough, 35, shared a video of herself wearing black leggings and a matching crop top, during a dance rehearsal with the text “sounds dancers make” over the footage. “Whatever it takes, I guess! 🤷‍♀️,” she captioned the post. Hough is incredibly busy these days with hosting Dancing With the Stars—here’s how she stays fit and healthy.


1. Sleep and Nutrition

Hough loves spinning, hiking, weight training, and cardio, and obviously dance; frequently changing up her workouts depending on what her schedule looks like. “My rituals have to be slightly different,” she told Hamptons Magazine. “My biggest thing right now is I’m less concerned about [getting in] the right workout every day... Because I have so much movement in my life, the thing that I need right now is more sleep and healthy nutrition, so that is fueling me because I’m already moving a bunch. So I just look at it like, what is my life calling for right now?”

2. Morning Workouts

Hough makes a point of carving out time for herself first thing in the day. “A lot of people put work and other things before personal time but then are too exhausted at the end of the day to do anything for themselves,” she told PopSugar. “I believe that whatever it is you decide to do for yourself, whether it’s yoga, painting, or cooking, it’s best to do it in the morning so that you can feel inspired and energized for your day ahead. You can give more of yourself to your work and to others once you’ve given yourself some attention.”

3. Less Is More

Hough takes good care of her skin, and wears as little makeup as possible on a day-to-day basis. “I always start with skin, so my EltaMD sunscreen is really important to me,” she told Women’s Health. “I love lip balm, so Laneige is a lip balm that I really love. It's like a mask, it's so thick. I love making sure my environment is like, candles lit or incense burning, just to create the experience and get my mindset in a really calming way, so I can self-regulate before I get crazy again with work stuff.”

4. Blonde Hair Care Tips

Hough is careful about the products she uses on her hair. “So here’s the lowdown. If you’re blonde, your hair tends to get a little brassy, so you can use a purple shampoo to revive your hue,” she told PopSugar. “But sometimes if you leave it in too long, your hair can turn slightly gray. In order to get that brassy color out, you can rinse your hair with some dish soap, and it'll cancel out that ashy hue. It’s not something I recommended doing often or in place of your shampoo, but it definitely helps in an emergency.

5. Her Own Wellness Brand

Hough started her wellness brand Kinrgy to help others with their health from a holistic standpoint. “The reason why I started Kinrgy in general was for my own growth and transformation and how dance really helped me with my own anxieties,” she told Women’s Health. “What it did for me, I wanted to share that with people. It gives permission to be fully expressed for your own unique version of who you are, that there is no right or wrong way to do anything. There is no perfection, it's about expression.”

Jaqueline Hooton is a fitness influencer. She makes sure to workout on a regular basis, even on vacation. She recently shared a HIIT workout while on her vacation. Hooton captioned the post, “I always take trainers 👟 @womensbest sportswear, a skipping rope, and a flexible attitude to exercise when I travel ✈️” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Jaqueline Hooton stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Does High-Intensity Interval Training

In her Instagram post, Hooton is seen doing an HIIT circuit. She captioned the post, “Here’s a quick and effective summer ☀️ HIIT workout which makes use of steps, a skipping rope, and bodyweight moves.” Harvard Health states that HIIT has a lot of benefits. “HIIT can help to decrease body fat, increase strength and endurance, and improve health outcomes, but it is not necessarily better than other exercise formats. Its main appeal is that it can achieve similar fitness and health benefits in a shorter duration, and that it includes periods of rest.”

2. She Runs

Hooton is seen running in her Instagram post. This has a lot of benefits. ACE Fitness states that running has a lot of mental benefits. “Running for two weeks reduced symptoms of depression in a study published in the journal Cortex; even a 10-minute session on the treadmill was shown to improve someone’s mood, research in Nature found. When researchers compared the mental health of runners and non-runners, they found that runners had lower stress and greater psychological well-being, according to a review published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. Just 15 minutes of running improves memory, a study in the journal Psychological Reports reported, and it can make you more cognitively flexible, meaning you can adapt and switch gears more easily, according to research in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience.

3. She Works Her Legs

Hooton makes sure to do leg workouts. She shared some of her favorites in this Instagram video. Hooton captioned the post, “📌 The workout: 2️⃣ Sets. 6️⃣0️⃣ seconds rest between sets. 8️⃣ - 1️⃣2️⃣ repetitions of each exercise. ⚪️ Sit to stand. ⚪️ Split squat (modify depth as needed). ⚪️ Seated leg extension. ⚪️ Seated straight leg raises. ⚪️ Single leg calf raises. ⚪️ Hip rainbows. ⚪️ Glute kickbacks. ⚪️ Elevated glute bridge.”

4. She’s Consistent

Hooton makes sure to stay consistent when it comes to her fitness. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to be consistent. 🙅🏻‍♀️Fitness is not a 12 week transformation 👧🏻👩🏻👩🏻‍🦳👵🏻 It’s a lifelong journey. And you’re never too old 👵🏻 and it’s never too late to start, so start now ⏰ (if you haven’t already).”

5. She’s Comfortable With Herself

Hooton has a lot of confidence in her body. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram reel. “When you realise you don't need a beach body, You need a body that can get you to the beach! There’s nothing like holidaying on a Greek Island 🏝️ to make you appreciate what functional fitness means! The beaches are beautiful, but most require a steep climb up down and up again to reach them. All this in 34 °C heat ☀️ several times a day, whilst I alternate between beach, swimming pool, my infinity pool room, and forays to find food. So yeah, I’m pleased my legs have the strength 💪 to navigate what feels like a million steps a day, and my lungs 🫁 and cardiovascular system 🫀can keep up!”

Mishael Morgan is a very successful actress. She’s best known for her role in The Young & The Restless. In 2022, Morgan became the first black woman to win the Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series. Last month, Morgan shared a selfie on Instagram of herself in workout gear. She captioned the post, “Did not wanna hit the weights this morning, but it’s done and I feel so good! Go get it.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Mishael Morgan stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Loves HIIT

High,Intensity,Interval,Training,,Hiit,,Crossword,Against,Textured,Handmade,Paper,Shutterstock

Morgan shared some of her favorite things in an interview with Soap Opera Digest. In it, she also revealed her favorite workout. “HIIT, which stands for high-intensity interval training. It’s the only exercise program that works for my body. I love this workout because it’s fast and motivating and gives the maximum burn.”

2. She Doesn’t Strive For Perfection

Mishel.Morgan.2_573c15Mishel Morgan/Instagram

Morgan doesn’t put pressure on herself to be perfect. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “There is beauty in the imperfections of our lives. Easter kinda snuck up on me this year and I had the most last minute Easter dinner of my life. It felt chaotic and crazy, but everyone including the kiddos pitched in. When I took a breath and looked around, I thought nothing was planned, but it’s just so beautiful. Definitely one for the memory books.”

3. She Swims

Mishel.Morgan.3Mishel Morgan/Instagram

Morgan likes to swim to stay in shape. In this Instagram post from a vacation, she is seen wading in the water. According to The Mayo Clinic, swimming has a lot of benefits. “Aquatic exercise is a fun way to focus on fitness in a gravity-reduced environment. The buoyancy of water is easier on the body and provides support for people with weakness, balance problems or pain. Additionally, the viscosity of water slows movement and provides resistance during exercise, making aquatic exercise a great workout.”

4. She Hikes

Mishel.Morgan.4Mishel Morgan/Instagram

Morgan also likes to go for hikes. In the previous Instagram post, she was seen hiking with friends. The National Parks Service states that hiking doesn’t just have physical benefits, but mental ones. “Being in nature can boost your mood and improve mental health. Spending quality time in the great outdoors reduces stress, calms anxiety, and can lead to a lower risk of depression, according to a study done by researchers at Stanford University. In addition to having mental health benefits, being outdoors opens up your senses to your surroundings and improves your sensory perception. Taking in the sights, smells, and feelings of nature has so many health benefits it can even be prescribed by a doctor.”

5. She Strength Trains

Mishel.Morgan.5_353636Mishel Morgan/Instagram

As you can see from her Instagram post, Morgan likes to weight train. Beaumont states that weight training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training helps you lose weight and keep it off by building muscle tissue. The more muscle mass you have, the higher your metabolic rate tends to be. More muscle also helps your body burn more fat than muscle, which is important if you want to lose weight and keep your strength. So, if you build muscle, you can speed up your metabolism and burn more fat when you exercise. The faster your body burns calories, the more calories it will burn each day.”

Emily Hayden is a fitness trainer with a large following on social media. She is about to participate in a secret project and is making sure to train hard for it. Hayden recently shared a workout video with a friend on Instagram. In it, they are seen doing things like box jumps, slamming weighted balls, and pushing weighted carts. She captioned the post, “What do you think would happen if you went ALL IN on you? No more holding back, no more half efforts, no more excuses, and no more making yourself small. NO. MORE.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Emily Hayden stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Pushes Herself

Hayden makes sure to push herself when she works out. She talked about this in the caption of her post. “Take up space. Face the challenge head on. Dominate what’s in front of you. Give it everything you’ve got. And when you feel like you have nothing left, remember… that moment is exactly why you’re here. Push through and show yourself that you can overcome any obstacle in front of you.”

2. She Strength Trains

Emily Hayden.2Emily Hayden/Instagram

Hayden likes to strength train to stay fit. In her Instagram video, she is seen using a weighted ball and a weighted cart. According to ACE Fitness, these exercises have a lot of health 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.”

3. She Works Out With A Friend

As you can tell from her video, Hayden likes to work out with a friend. Better Health states that having a friend workout with you can push you. “When you exercise with a friend who’s around the same fitness level as you, you’re more likely to encourage each other and to push a little harder (to increase intensity, for example) than you might do on your own. A friend can bring out your competitive side and spur you on. When you’re ready to give up, the sight of your friend powering on might be just the incentive you need to keep going.”

4. She Does Squats

One workout that Hayden enjoys doing is squats. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing them with a barbell. Hayden captioned the post, “Do it because you deserve the life that excellence produces. Do it for you. What would you go after if anything was possible? Go after that. How would you show up if you weren’t worried about the judgements of others? Show up like that.”

5. She Uses A Resistance Band

Hayden likes to use a resistance band when she trains her glutes. She shared one of her favorite exercises in this Instagram video. In it, Hayden puts the band on her waist, stretches it out, and does forward bends with a weight. Hayden captioned the post, “Try this on your next glute day! It’s one of my favorite glute exercises. Focus on the efficiency & fullness of each squeeze and give it a full slow stretch at the bottom of the rep. Let me know what you think 💞tag me in your stories if you try it!”

Chontel Duncan is a fitness trainer and influencer with her own app, Neu Fitness. Duncan recently shared a photo of herself and her boyfriend on Instagram. In it, both of them wore workout clothes. Duncan captioned the post, “We are almost there.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Chontel Duncan stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Jumps Rope

Duncan shared this video on Instagram of herself in the gym. In it, she is seen jumping rope. According to ACE Fitness, jumping rope is a great workout. “Jumping rope can increase the elasticity and resiliency of lower-leg muscles, leading to a reduced risk of lower-leg injuries. Calf raises can strengthen the lower leg, but if the muscle tissue becomes too tight it could increase the risk of a number of lower-leg injuries including achilles tendon strain or plantar fasciitis. Jumping rope regularly strengthens the calf muscles and improves the elasticity of the surrounding tendons and fascia. To increase elasticity, try to land on the ball of the foot first, but let your heels go all of the way down to the ground.”

2. She Uses A Rowing Machine

Chontel Duncan.3Chontel Duncan/Instagram

In the Instagram post, Duncan is also seen using a rowing machine at the gym. The Cleveland Clinic states that using a rowing machine has a lot of benefits. “Your abdominal muscles, lower back, obliques, glutes and hamstrings all get a workout during a session on a rowing machine. If you follow proper form, your core will be engaged during every single step of the rowing process. Strengthening those muscles is also key to maintaining stability and building speed.”

3. She Works Her Glutes

Duncan makes sure to do workouts that work her glutes. She shared her favorites in this Instagram video. She captioned the post, “Here are some low-impact favorites to wake up the toosh before you work out!🍑 AIR SQUATS (slow and controlled, time under tension). 🍑 DEFICIT DOUBLE PULSE ALTERNATING REVERSE LUNGES (yes, it’s a mouthful). 🍑 GOOD MORNINGS (slow and with light weight, if any). 🍑 WEIGHTED DOUBLE PULSE SQUATS (keep it light and focus on depth). I like to do 15 reps of each for 2 rounds. These are just a few of my go-to moves. Stay tuned for more on my app coming soon!”

4. She Does Ladder Workouts

Duncan likes to do ladder workouts, which are workouts that increase in difficulty, amount of repetitions, or duration. Duncan shared this video of herself doing ladder workouts in the gym. She captioned the post, “Why I love Ladder workouts? Progressive structure, versatility, scaleability and variety. You will find various types of exercises such as weightlifting, (eg squats, bench), bodyweight exercises &/or cardio exercises. It’s suitable for all fitness levels, as the starting point and increments can be adjusted based on individual capability. I personally find I see benefits such as improved endurance & strength, mental toughness & caloric burn. And with this I can easily adjust to target different fitness goals, such as hypertrophy, endurance, or cardiovascular health.”

5. She Does Pull-Ups

Duncan is working on improving her pull-ups. She documented her progress on Instagram. Duncan shared this video on Instagram of herself doing them in the gym. She captioned the post, “The update no one asked for: Attempted my max wide grip over hand pull up. Managed 10 in my first set. Thinking I should set myself a goal to hit 14 strict reps…. (For shits and gigs).”

WE DON’T GET TIME BACK! DO YOUR BEST TODAY HOWEVER THAT MAY LOOK! I BELIEVE IN YA’LL!💪🏼” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Jessica Arevalo stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She’s Consistent

As you can see from the caption of her post, Arevalo is consistent with working out. The Mayo Clinic recommends this. “Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help you keep off lost weight. When you take part in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn. Regular trips to the gym are great, but don't worry if you can't find a large chunk of time to exercise every day. Any amount of activity is better than none. To gain the benefits of exercise, just get more active throughout your day. For example, take the stairs instead of the elevator or rev up your household chores. Consistency is key.”

2. She Strength Trains

Arevalo likes to strength train. She shared this video of herself doing a lot of strength training exercises on Instagram. In it, Arevalo does machine chest presses, military shoulder presses, and bicep curls, among other exercises. She captioned the post, “You have to understand that the journey in life will never get easier, we only get stronger. You make a choice to man up and move forward or make excuses and go backwards. It’s up to you!”

3. She Works Her Upper Body

Arevalo shares a lot of upper body workouts on Instagram, including this video. She captioned the post, “FULL UPPER BODY WORKOUT POWERED BY| @essinutrition. OUTFIT DETAILS| @jessicaarevalocollection.

If you try this workout let me know how you like it!”

4. She’s Motivated

Arevalo shares what motivates her with Simply Shredded. “Growing up, I had nothing and experienced a lot of hardships and learned at a young age to work hard in whatever I did. I couldn’t give up because I didn’t have anything to fall back on. My motivation comes from how far I have come; I have overcome depression, alcohol addiction, anxiety, panic attacks and every kind of abuse you can think of. The fact that I fought my way out of the impossible lets me know that anything is possible. Now that I can inspire women all over the world is very motivating for me.”

5. She Does Lunges

Arevalo likes to do lunges to stay in shape. She talked about this with Simply Shredded. “I love lunges because they are the best for keeping those glutes in shape!” ACE Fitness states that lunges have a lot of benefits. “Lunges work the biggest muscles in your lower body — mainly the quadriceps, gluteus maximus, and the adductor magnus (the muscle in your inner thigh). Other muscles that come into play are the hamstrings, gluteus medius, calves, and core stabilizers, says Susane Pata, content strategist for the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and NASM-certified personal trainer based in Miami.”

Grace Charis is more than just a golf influencer—she’s a powerhouse on and off the course. Known for blending her love of the sport with a lifestyle that keeps her fit and fabulous, Charis recently shared a video on Instagram, inviting followers to “Come play this par 3 with me!” Decked out in a sleek white visor, matching skirt, and light pink top, she showcased not just her swing but her toned physique. So, how does she stay in such great shape? From perfecting her golf game to hitting the gym, here are the five fitness habits that keep Grace Charis on top of her game.

She Golfs

Golf is the main way Charis keeps herself in shape. Better Health states that the sport has a lot of benefits. “Golf provides a stimulating mental challenge combined with a healthy walk in pleasant surroundings and can be played by people of all abilities and ages. Golf can be played on your own or in a team. It may be a casual pastime or a competitive activity. Golf can be good for your health and your heart. Walking an average course for a round of golf can be between five to seven kilometres. If you walk 18 holes three to five times a week, you’ll get an optimal amount of endurance exercise for your heart. If you pull your clubs or carry them, you’ll burn even more calories each round and benefit even more.”

She Swims

Charis likes to swim to keep herself in shape. She shared these photos and videos on Instagram of herself snorkeling in Japan. The Cleveland Clinic says that swimming has a lot of health benefits, including building your muscles. “The built-in resistance that water provides helps build muscles and makes you stronger. And because water is more resistant than air, swimming does this faster than land workouts like running and biking.”

She Lifts Weights

Charis shared some of her favorite workouts in this TikTok. In it, she is seen doing a lot of workouts with weights. According to ACE Fitness, 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 Does Glutes Bridges

Charis is also seen doing glute bridges in her TikTok. NASM states that this exercise has a lot of benefits. “Glute bridges are a useful exercise for building core stability, building glute strength, and improving overall exercise form and function. When performed as a stabilization exercise, glute bridges activate the glutes to function as they are supposed to in other movements like squats, deadlifts, walking, and running. Adding weight progresses glute bridges into a strength exercise, which can build strength in the glute muscles. By increasing glute activation and strengthening the glutes, not only will your form get better in other exercises, but you might also gain the added benefit of reduced low back pain in your everyday life.”

She Does Lunges

Charis is also seen doing lunges with weights in her TikTok. Lunges are very beneficial. The Mayo Clinic reports, “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

Tedeschi likes to do Pilates to keep herself in shape. She shares a lot of videos in her Instagram story highlight of herself using a reformer. Better Health reports, “The health benefits of Pilates include: improved flexibility, increased muscle strength and tone, particularly of your abdominal muscles, lower back, hips and buttocks (the ‘core muscles’ of your body), balanced muscular strength on both sides of your body, enhanced muscular control of your back and limbs, improved stabilisation of your spine.”

She Does Burpees

Tedeschi likes to do burpees to keep herself in shape. She shared this video in her Instagram story highlight of herself doing them. The Cleveland Clinic says that burpees have a lot of benefits. “From an aerobic standpoint, burpees put your ticker to the test. The exercise offers the breath-stealing effect of running in a very condensed timeframe.”

She Does Deadlifts

Tedeschi is seen doing deadlifts with a weight in this Instagram story. Deadlifts are very beneficial. ACE Fitness says, “The most important benefit of the RDL is that it teaches the proper movement and biomechanics of standing hip flexion and extension. This is the foundational movement for squatting, whether the movement is performed with a weight in the gym or while bending over to pick an object up from the floor.”

Rachel Platten is a very successful singer. She is known for songs like “Fight Song” and “Stand By You.” Recently, Platten announced on Instagram that she will be going on tour this year. She captioned a post, “I cannot wait to see your faces and hug you and cry together and feel our feelings and connect and saaaang!! Tickets go on sale this Monday. But if you’re signed up for my email list then you’ll get an email giving you early access TODAY. See you soon my friends.”

She Opened Up About Her Struggles

After having her first child, Platten opened up about her struggles on Instagram. She tells TODAY that she received a lot of support from others after doing this. "I get flooded with comments from other women and men saying that it's OK, and I'm not alone, I'm not doing a bad job," she said. “It's making me feel not isolated. I could have gone down a road of this being a much darker experience had I not learned early on to be vulnerable and vocalize what I'm going through. That's been a really big life raft for me.”

She’s Comfortable With Her Weight

On her Instagram, Platten revealed that she is not putting pressure on herself to lose pregnancy weight, as she is comfortable with herself. “I am not less worthy of love just because I can’t seem to lose those last 5 or 10 pounds of ‘baby weight.’ I’ve tried it ALL and my body is begging for my acceptance. I am stronger than ever, I am so healthy, I can dance and lift weight and carry my girls and move and live a full beautiful life and am honestly sick of trying to keep shrinking myself back to pre-baby weight. F— it.”

She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Platten shared some of her skincare secrets with Health Insight. “I apply face masks regularly — twice a week or more — and often go to sleep with a thin layer of a hydrating mask instead of a moisturizer. I also have a five-step routine (cleansing, toning, using a serum, moisturizing, and using sunscreen) that I do every morning and night no matter what. It’s a form of meditation for me and reminds me that even when I’m crazy busy there’s always time to breathe and love on myself a little.”

She’s Consistent With Wellness

Platten makes sure to stay consistent with her wellness routine. She shared her secrets with Health Insight. “In addition to my daily routine, I get regular facials (or give myself mini facials when I don’t have time), drink a crazy amount of water, eat healthy foods, and wear hats almost every time I’m in the sun. As cheesy as it might sound, I really do love taking care of my skin and I put a lot of effort into maintaining it.”

She Gives Back

Platten is a big believer in giving back to others. “I think we can remember how powerful we are by giving — giving compliments, our time to charities, and random acts of kindness,” she told Health Insight. “We can feel sad and powerless when we only focus on what we don’t have or don’t want, but we can easily shift this by switching that focus to what we have to offer! In my opinion, nothing is more beautiful or attractive than a woman who knows her worth and power.”
