Katherine Jenkins is getting in a morning swim – in her swimsuit. In one of her most recent social media posts, the singer shows off her incredible body in a black bathing suit as she takes a swim in the pool. “Please can I start every show day like this? 🙏🏼 #swim #lakeswimming #Tourlife #austria #wales,” she captioned the Instagram Reel. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Katherine Jenkins stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Exercises

Katherine detailed her approach to exercise to Women Fitness. “I separate my workouts into cardio & strength. On a cardio day, I either run or take a class like Barry’s Bootcamp or Soul Cycle. On a strength day, I work at home with my trainer Mel Deane using weights, TRX, bands etc,” she said.

2. She Is a “Pescatarian-Vegan”

“I am a pescetarian-vegan in remembrance of my friend Polly Humphries, who passed away from cancer and ate a plant-based diet,” Katherine told The Guardian about her diet. “Breakfast is porridge with almond milk. Lunch is salad with tuna or tofu. Dinner is roasted veg with salmon and salad. I enjoy a glass of wine on holiday, but alcohol’s effect on the voice means none while performing.”

3. She Hydrates

Katherine revealed to Women Fitness that she drinks “at least 2 litres of water a day.” According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

4. She Dances

Katherine got into the best shape of her life while on the American version of Strictly Come Dancing. “I know people are worried, but they shouldn’t be,” she said at the time. “I’m pigging out on everything – pizza, fries, sushi, cake. More than I’ve ever eaten in my life,” she added. “I did six hours of dance practice today and will do eight hours tomorrow.

5. She Rests When She Can

Katherine rests when she can. “I get up at 6.30am to feed my seven-month-old son, Xander, but as a morning person, I have lots of energy. I get less sleep than I should – I’m never in bed before 11pm. Luckily I’m good at napping on planes or in the car. My husband Andrew works on West Coast time, starting at 3pm and finishing at three in the morning,” she told The Guardian.

Gabriella Elnicki first made waves when she appeared on the most recent season of The Bachelor. She recently took a trip to Majorca, and spent time at the beach. She shared some highlights from her trip on Instagram. In some of them, Elnicki is seen on a paddleboard in the ocean. She captioned the post, “Getting aquatic.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Gabriella Elnicki stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Paddleboards

As you can see from her recent post, Elnicki likes to paddleboard to stay in shape. Paddleboarding is a great way to get outside and work on your balance. Having good balance is necessary. The American Heart Association states, “Having good balance is important for many activities we do every day, such as walking and going up and down the stairs. Exercises that improve balance can help prevent falls, a common problem in older adults and stroke patients. They can also benefit those who are obese since weight is not always carried or distributed evenly throughout the body. A loss of balance can occur when standing or moving suddenly. Often we are not fully aware that we may have weak balance until we try balance exercises.”

2. She Swims

Paddleboarding isn’t the only water activity Elneiki likes to do. She’s also a fan of swimming. Elnecki posts a lot of photos on Instagram of herself in the water. She shared this set of photos of herself at a pool in Miami. Elnicki captioned the post, “Soft smiling through the pain of my hangover.”

3. She Does Pilates

Elnicki is a big fan of Pilates. She shared this video on Instagram of herself at the gym doing Pilates exercises. Pilates has a lot of benefits. Better Health states, “Pilates promotes mobility and strength of all the major muscle groups in the body in a balanced fashion, whilst also having a key focus on the deep core muscles. It improves posture, flexibility, strength, balance and body awareness.”

4. She Gets Some Sunshine

"It’s hard to believe we have already been in Europe for a week! Mallorca was definitely sprinkling Spanish sunshine 😏," she wrote yesterday. Basking in the warm embrace of sunlight goes beyond just lifting our spirits; it offers a myriad of health benefits that are essential for our overall well-being. Sunlight is a natural source of vitamin D, crucial for bone health and immune system function. It also stimulates the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that enhances mood and helps combat stress and depression. Exposure to sunlight can regulate our sleep-wake cycles, promoting better sleep patterns and improved cognitive function. Moreover, sunlight triggers the skin's production of nitric oxide, which can help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease. While we must protect our skin from harmful UV rays, incorporating safe amounts of sunshine into our daily routines can lead to a healthier and happier life.

5. She Loves the Beach

The beach offers a treasure trove of health benefits that go far beyond its scenic beauty and soothing sounds of crashing waves. The saltwater present in the sea is a natural remedy for numerous skin conditions, aiding in the healing of wounds, reducing inflammation, and improving skin elasticity. Coastal air, rich in negative ions, can boost our body's ability to absorb oxygen, enhancing lung function and respiratory health. Moreover, spending time at the beach promotes physical activity, as walking or jogging on the sandy shore provides an excellent low-impact workout for the muscles and joints. The sound of ocean waves has been shown to induce a state of relaxation, reducing stress and promoting mental well-being. Additionally, exposure to sunlight on the beach facilitates the production of vitamin D, essential for bone health and immune system support. Combining the therapeutic qualities of saltwater, fresh air, physical activity, and sun, the beach becomes a powerful natural remedy for overall health and vitality. So, make time for the beach, and let its healing embrace revitalize your mind, body, and soul.

Track and Field Star Clara Fernández, master of the pole vault, shared some amazing swimsuit images over the past few days. “Mi isla favorita con @calallongahotel tenéis un código de descuento con mi código CLARACLL23 🫶🏻,” she captioned one video montage. She also shared a gorgeous photo of herself on a scenic rock from Menorca, Balearic Islands, Spain. The athlete, who is also a skilled triathlon participant who cycles swims, and runs long distances, knows exactly how to stay fit. Here's what she does to maintain her figure and how she shows it off.


1. She Pole Vaults

“Even if you’re unlikely to start flinging your body to amazing heights anytime soon, there’s plenty to learn from watching Olympic pole-vaulters,” says Adventist Health, which interviewed Dr. Gail Jones, a cardiologist at Northwest Regional Heart & Vascular and former pole vaulter. “Dr. Jones suggests watching the incredible core and upper body strength of vaulters, as well as their unique running style and power,” says the website. “This is very different from distance runners or sprinters, but no less athletic,” she told Adventist Health.

2. She Had Paddled

“Kayaking’s fluid paddling motion also provides a low-impact form of aerobic exercise improving strength and flexibility without the wear-and-tear on your joints like many other exercises. While you’ll quickly notice the workout on your upper body, proper paddling technique will tone and strengthen your back and chest as well. Like any aerobic exercise, kayaking can improve lung strength, while lowering blood pressure and a regulating of cholesterol, and Men’s Journal has even heralded kayaking one of the best workouts for a healthy heart,” says Visit NH.

3. She Stretches

“Research has shown that stretching can help improve flexibility, and, as a result, the range of motion of your joints,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Better flexibility may:

  • Improve your performance in physical activities
  • Decrease your risk of injuries
  • Help your joints move through their full range of motion
  • Increase muscle blood flow
  • Enable your muscles to work most effectively
  • Improve your ability to do daily activities

You may learn to enjoy the ritual of stretching before or after hitting the trail, ballet floor or soccer field.”

4. She Gets Vitamin D

“Vitamin D plays a big role in bone health and low Vitamin D levels have been linked to rickets in children and bone diseases like osteoporosis. So how much sun do you need to get enough Vitamin D? It only takes 5-15 minutes of sunlight exposure on your arms, hands and face to get your daily value,” says SCL Health. “The darker your complexion, the more time in the sun. Forget choking down a chalky vitamin every morning, just get outside for a bit and let the sun do its thing.”

5. She Swims

“The enjoyment in activity is extremely important in terms of continuing to engage in those activities,” says Hirofumi Tanaka, a professor in the University of Texas’s Department of Kinesiology and Health Education, told US Masters Swimming. “Tanaka points to a study of minimally to moderately obese young women done by Grant Gwinup and published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine in 1987. Participants reported that they enjoyed swimming much more than running and cycling,” says US Masters Swimming. “Swimming is also the third-most popular exercise, according to the most recent data available from the U.S. Census Bureau, meaning you’ll have someone to work out with.”

Jena Sims, the actress, model and wife of Brooks Koepka, is spending time in beautiful Islamorada, Florida with some friends. Naturally, she’s making sure to go to the beach, and posted some new photos on Instagram. In them, Sims posed with her friends and some pool toys on the shore. She captioned the post, “​​If you had that @lisafrank binder, it’s probably time for an eye cream.” "So cute," commented one fan. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Jena Sims 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 Skis

Sims does a lot of outdoor activities. While she mostly spends time in the sun, she also spends time in the cold. Sims loves to go skiing. She posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself and her husband, golfer Brooks Koepa, skiing in Big Sky, Montana. Sims captioned the post, “I love you snow much.”

2. She Goes Swimming

Sims loves to go swimming. She posts a lot of photos on Instagram of herself at the beach or by the pool. She posted this photo of herself wading in a hotel pool, captioning it, “Seas and greetings.” She also posted these photos of herself at the beach in Hawaii, captioning it, “Here today, gone to Maui.” “Water is significantly denser than air — by almost 800 times. That means you can build muscle strength as you move through water. One study found that a long-term water exercise program was actually more effective than working out on land to build muscle strength,” says the Mayo Clinic.

3. She Rides Jet-Skis

When Sims goes to the beach, she doesn’t just go swimming. She is also a fan of jet-ski riding. Sims posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself riding a jet-ski with her friend. Sims captioned the post, “Monkey sea, monkey doo.”

Another outdoor activity Sims loves to do is go for a hike. She posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself hiking in Hawaii. She captioned it, “Cause I’m an island boy.” “It’s always a good idea to bring along some water and even a snack when heading out, even for shorter hikes. Don’t let yourself get so distracted by the beautiful sights around you that you forget to drink fluids and become dehydrated. Drink at least 7–10 ounces of water every 20 minutes, even when the weather is cold,” says ACE Fitness.

5. She Horseback Rides

Sims loves to go horseback riding. She posted this set of photos of herself going for a ride on Castlerock Beach. She captioned the post, “Listens to Lil Nas X once.” She referenced the rapper’s hit song “Old Town Road.” “​​One of the benefits of regular exercise is lowered blood pressure; horseback riding is exercise. Lower blood pressure can reduce the risk of heart disease. Plus just being around animals has been shown to do that as well,” says the American Heart Association.

Leonie Hanne is living her best life in Thailand – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the German model flaunts her fantastic figure in a $750 Missoni bathing suit while enjoying a boating day in the tropics. “She dreamed of a tropical adventure 🦋,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Stunning,” commented one of her followers. ”So beautiful,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Coffee

Leonie enjoys the perks of caffeine. In one of her posts from Thailand, she drinks a cup of coffee at the poolside. According to the Cleveland Clinic, drinking coffee in moderation has several benefits. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Pilates

Leonie does Pilates at the super exclusive London studio Pilates in the Clouds. 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.

At-Home Workouts

Leonie tries to get a workout in daily, preferably in the morning. I still try to get up early to maintain a sense of routine. I start every day with a quick at-home workout and a homemade acai bowl, before starting work on emails and content creation. I’ve been getting really into TikTok lately, it’s funny and keeps me feeling energised!” she told Arcadia.

Community

It takes a village, according to Leonie. “Community is key! The people you surround yourself with are more important than ever, as we are all trying to find ways to stay connected without being physically present. Speaking to people either on the phone or through social media can shift your mindset and motivation more than ever before,” she says.

Small, Healthy Habits

Leonie focuses on maintaining small, healthy habits. “Do something every day that brings you joy. Even if that means having something small to look forward to, like having your favourite snacks around the house or changing into an outfit that makes you feel good about yourself,” she says.

Sophie Piper is embracing island life – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Love Island beauty shows off her fantastic figure in a swimsuit during a tropical vacation at Kandima Maldives with Josh Ritchie. “Island life,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps taken at the picturesque resort. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

She Doesn't Go Under the Knife

Sophie claims she hasn’t gone under the knife. “It’s your own body, you can do what you want to,” she told Grazia, weighing in on the show’s reputation for girls getting work done. “I wouldn’t have surgery myself; I don’t want it. I’ve got such a low pain tolerance as well; I’d be squirming around.”

She Gets Her Steps In

Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Sophie loves paddle boarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and cardio. Water sports can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140-pound male and 436 calories for a female of the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

She Skis

When Sophie hits the mountains, she throws on a pair of skis. “Ski club,” she captioned a photo. Research has linked downhill skiing to several health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, the prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress, and the occurrence of memory deficits decline.

She Loves Group Fitness

“You’ve got to be body confident,” Sophie told Grazia. One of her favorite sweat methods? Group fitness. “A few gym classes can’t hurt,” she said.

She Goes Snorkeling

On her recent Maldives vacation, Sophie and Josh snorkeled in the crystal clear water. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Join her challenges for workouts, meal tracking, and more for a healthier lifestyle.

Tammy Hembrow is a fitness influencer and expert. She has her own app, called Tammy Fit. Hembrow has a lot of challenges on her app. Recently, she advertised a challenge with a workout video on Instagram. Hembrow captioned the post, “We are 3 days into our first @tammyfitapp challenge of the year & I am more motivated than everrrrr. (Sign ups are still open if you haven’t joined yet - there’s still time to catch up!! - link in bio). Soooo happy seeing so many of my girlies (and guys) in this challenge doing it with me!! And I CANNOT wait to see everyone’s results at the end of the 8 weeks. We got thissss 💪🏼”

She Does Pulldowns

Hembrow is seen doing pulldowns in her Instagram video. Piedmont reports that pulldowns have a lot of benefits. “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.”

She Lifts Weights

Tammy Hebrew is seen using dumbbells.

Hembrow is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that 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 Tracks Her Meals

Hembrow likes to track her meals on her app. She talked about the benefits of this in the caption of this “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. “Make sure to take advantage of the calorie/macro tracking features in the @tammyfitapp during this challenge guys. It can be really helpful in reaching specific goals quicker. And it also can help educate you on your food choices when it comes to nutrition, ratios, hidden calories, overeating or under eating etc. honestly I’d recommend any beginner try it out just to get a good feel for how you’re fuelling your body!! I feel like when people think of ‘meal tracking’ it can be seen as something that seems restrictive or something only bodybuilders do. When in reality it can be such a helpful tool and you can learn things that will actually encourage long term habits 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

She Loves Bananas

Tammy Hebrew has a banana snack.

Hembrow is seen enjoying bananas in her “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that bananas have a lot of benefits. “A single medium-sized banana offers about 32 mg of the mineral magnesium, which fulfills around 8% to 10% of your daily magnesium requirement. Magnesium is involved in many processes in your body, including: Blood pressure. Blood sugar levels. Building proteins. Maintaining bone. Muscle function. Nerve function.”

She Loves Cottage Cheese

Tammy Hebrew's snack the contains banana and cottage cheese.

Hembrow is seen enjoying her bananas with cottage cheese in the previous Instagram video. Cottage cheese is very healthy. UCLA Health reports, “Cottage cheese’s protein content and low calories make it an ideal food for weight management. Research shows that whether you are trying to lose weight or reduce your risk of overweight or obesity, eating a high-protein diet can help you feel full and satisfied for longer.”
