Actress and TV personality Karishma Tanna recently enjoyed a vacation in the beautiful Maldives. And she made sure to hit the beach. Tanna shared some vacation photos on Instagram this week.

Read on to see 5 ways Karishma Tanna 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 Eats A Light Breakfast

Tanna makes sure to eat healthy. She also makes sure that she is eating the right things and portions at each meal. In an interview, she says that she starts the day off with a lighter option. "I don't stuff myself at breakfast,” she reveals. “And prefer to have a glass of milk and fruit for breakfast. I prefer a home-made vegetarian lunch otherwise."

2. She Weight Trains

Tanna shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. One thing she likes to do is weight train. Tanna shared this video of herself doing deadlifts with a barbell. She captioned the post, “Saturday motivation!” She also shared this photo of herself using the shoulder press machine with weights, captioning it, “Back workout! Fit body in progress!”

3. She Stretches

Tanna makes sure to stretch. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself doing a leg stretch in rehearsal. She captioned the post, “Back to basics…” Harvard Health states, “Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints. Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage.”

4. She Boxes

Tanna likes to box as a way to stay in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself boxing with a trainer. Tanna captioned the post, “Punch punch punch.” Boxing is an aerobic and cardio exercise, which means it has a lot of benefits. Harvard Health states, “Aerobic exercise gets your heart pumping and helps lower the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. It can strengthen bones and muscles, burn more calories, and lift mood. Aerobics can also boost your endurance, which helps you climb a flight of stairs or walk farther.”

5. She Does Yoga

Another workout that Tanna enjoys doing is practicing yoga. She shared these photos on Instagram of herself in a pose. Tanna captioned the post, “Yogini.” Harvard Health reports that yoga has a lot of benefits. “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. 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.”

Bollywood star Karishma Tanna previously referred to herself as a “fitness freak” who is happiest after doing a complete workout, and clearly she is still in that mindset. Tanna, 40, shared pictures of herself wearing black leggings and a sports bra, doing yoga on a mat in a big, empty fitness studio. She also swears by weight training and regular cardio sessions to stay fit and strong—here’s what the rest of Tanna’s wellness regimen looks like these days.

1. No Breakfast

Tanna is not a fan of eating early in the day. “I do not like to stuff myself at breakfast. Contrary to popular belief which says that one should have a heavy breakfast to pull through the day, I believe that it makes you lethargic,” she told DNA India. “Hence, I prefer to have only a glass of milk and a banana or a mango for breakfast. At times, I have south-Indian fare like upma or idlis, but that’s rare.”

2. Simple Skincare

Tanna’s skincare routine is low-key yet effective. "I have a simple, fuss-free skincare routine and I also keep trying out DIY masks that really help with my skin health,” she told Cosmopolitan. “On top of that, luckily I am also blessed with good skin courtesy my mother who has amazing skin! I begin my day with splashing some rose water on my face after waking up. It smells amazing and instantly rejuvenates me. Then, I proceed to do my workout. After all that I apply my sunscreen and vitamin C serum. I mix and apply both. The serum really helps with dark spots and pigmentation while sunscreen is super important even though many people think that it's applied only when you are out in the sun. You NEED sunscreen in all the seasons."

3. Fitness and Family

Tanna refers to herself as a “fitness freak” who loves cardio and weight training. In her spare time she relaxes with friends and family. “I’m a complete workaholic,” she told Times of India. “Work gives me utmost satisfaction and keeps me happy. But it doesn’t mean I stay away from everything. I make it a point to stay close to my family and friends. Music, catching up with friends and family get-togethers make me extremely happy.”

4. Aloe Vera and Olive Oil

Tanna makes her own face masks from home ingredients. "Sometimes I use gel from my aloe vera plant on my face,” she told Cosmopolitan. “I refrigerate it and use the cool gel on my face for 10-15 minutes before rinsing it off. My favorite DIY scrub is mixing coffee powder with sugar and olive oil on my whole body. But the best dadi ka nuska is using turmeric, yogurt and lemon as a mask for clear skin."

5. Home Cooking

Tanna eats at home as much as possible, as she believes—and this is backed up by research—that home cooking is healthier than eating out, for the most part. "When cooking, you’re a part of the meal process from start to finish — the grocery store to the plate. It makes you far more in tune with the food you’re putting into your system," nutritional counselor Sarah Jacobs, cofounder of the Wellness Project NYC, tells Aetna.

Karishma Tanna is poking fun at herself in a new social media post. Tanna, 40, shared a video of herself wearing black leggings and a blue tank top, bouncing happily into the gym with plenty of energy and a smile on her face. The next part of her video shows the actress lying down on her yoga mat, taking a nap. “When you plan to work out on a Sunday… bad idea I guess,” reads the text over her video. “Relatable???” she captioned the post. Here’s what her diet, wellness, and fitness regimen looks like.

1. Dancing Queen

Tanna loves to dance, but admits it’s not as easy as it used to be. “Dancing has always been my passion, my escape, and my joy,” she captioned a video. “There’s nothing like the feeling of losing myself in the music and moving freely. Unfortunately, my knee pain has made it hard for me to dance like I used to. It’s been tough adjusting, but I’m focusing on healing and staying positive. Couldn’t stop myself from this one. After a long long time I danced my heart out.”

2. Yoga Forever

Tanna includes regular yoga sessions in her health and wellness regimen. “Yoga allows you to find a new kind of freedom that you may not have known even existed. Yogini Forever 🧘‍♀️,” she captioned an Instagram post showing the actress performing a yoga move at the gym.

3. Serious Artist

Tanna feels underrated in the industry. “Just because I’ve done glamorous roles in the past, and played characters on TV shows where I had to overact, everybody assumed that I can only capable of that,” she told Hindustan Times. “It disappoints me sometimes. But, the reason behind that notion is there are very few directors who have the vision to not typecast you. Not everyone can mold you into character roles and bring out the best in you. I just hope that now (after Scoop), audiences take me more seriously as an actor, and I get more opportunities to prove that I’m capable of doing even better.”

4. Beauty Tips

Tanna says the most important beauty tip she can share is to stay hydrated. "DRINK A LOT OF WATER!” she told Brides Today. “I try to meet my water intake target every day and even today, I often miss it but it is the most underrated way to keep your skin clear and healthy."

5. Excited For the Future

Tanna is excited for what’s next in her career. “It’s the most difficult thing to decide what I’m going to take up next,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “Right now, I’m just enjoying this moment and the success of Scoop. My journey has been good. Yes, it’s had a lot of ups and downs, but I’ve learnt a lot with every project and gained a lot of experience. A lot of people have said that I’ve got a role that I’ve deserved after 18 long years, which makes me feel like good things do indeed take their own time.”

Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor Khan is showing off her impressive yoga skills in a recent social media post. Khan, 43, shared pictures of herself wearing a black Puma sports bra and pink leggings, doing a yoga pose on her mat. “Do you have a pose that keeps you on your toes? 🤣🤣🤣” she captioned the post. “My Queen,” a fan commented. Kapoor has been in the public eye for decades—here’s how this mother-of-two stays fit and beautiful.

1. Daily Meditation

Khan meditated every day. “I start my day with the practice of oil pulling with coconut oil even before I brush my teeth,” she told ZeeZest. “It has numerous health benefits. In the meantime, I check my phone. After brushing my teeth I splash some cold water on my face to freshen up and meditate. I try to fit some sort of workout right at the beginning of my day with yoga or gym—but it really depends on what I am feeling like.”

2. Pilates and Weight Lifting

Khan stays active through a variety of different workouts. “It is really important to keep your body active every day,” she told Lifestyle Asia. “Even during my pregnancy, I found ways to keep working like yoga, walking, light weight lifting, and Pilates. Apart from that, a healthy but sustainable diet is crucial. You should be able to enjoy your food and not fall into fad diets.”

3. Healthy Eating Mantra

Khan is passionate about the power of healthy food. “It is important to have a balanced and nutritious diet, not just for your skin but overall health,” she told ZeeZest. “I strongly recommend including more whole foods in your diet, cutting down on processed foods, sugary foods and drinks, and alcohol. Definitely eat more fruits and vegetables, combine fiber-rich foods with good sources of protein like eggs, dairy, nuts, and beans, complex carbohydrates like whole grains, and healthy fats. One should also eat small meals and control portion sizes.”

4. Family Time

Khan loves to wind down with quality family time in the fresh air. “I stay motivated through connecting with my friends, fans, and my family,” she told Lifestyle Asia. “It’s nice to take a walk with my kids or spend some time outside with my friends and family.”

5. That Yoga Glow

Khan swears by yoga’s benefits not just for health and wellness but for beauty, too. “I truly believe that your overall health really shows up on your face,” she told ZeeZest. “Yoga has been such a great way for me to work out because it brings you calm and peace. These things really help your skin glow too.”
