Lana Condor is an actress best known for her role in the To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before franchise, and Ruby Gilman: Teenage Kraken. In March, Condor shared a workout video on Instagram. In it, she is seen doing squats with weights, tricep pulldowns, and using the leg press machine. She captioned the post, “Focusing on my health & fitness journey this year so I can intimidate @therock 💪🏽 || seriously tho, @betitanfit is helping me prioritize my fitness so that I can be the strongest version of myself let’s gooooo.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Lana Condor stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. She Strength Trains

As you could tell from her Instagram post, Condor likes to strength train. The Mayo Clinic states that strength training has a lot of benefits. “By stressing your bones, strength training can increase bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis…Strength training can reduce the signs and symptoms of many chronic conditions, such as arthritis, back pain, obesity, heart disease, depression and diabetes.”

2. She Doesn’t Overwork Herself

Condor makes sure to workout on a regular basis, but she also doesn’t want to push herself too hard. She tells SELF that her trainer, Paolo Mascitti, is very understanding when she needs a day off. “If my body is so sore and I need a day off, he's so understanding about that,” she says. “My mental health is the priority, and my mental health is always better when I am active. But sometimes when your body hurts, you're like, I can't do anything, I don't want to get up. And so he's very patient. If there's a day that I feel the need to be a little bit more gentle with myself, he's great.”

3. She Goes To Fitness Classes

Condor tells SELF that she likes to take fitness classes to stay in shape. “I always do a little bit better in a class setting or in-person, just because I think that I have a competitive nature in workout classes. So I feel like I can really hit it hard.”

4. She Uses A Serum

Condor makes sure to take care of her skin. She shared her favorite serum with Glamour. “The iS Clinical Advanced Pro-Heal Serum is my baby. I’m realizing now that a lot of my answers have been out of convenience and speed, but I really do think that it is a very convenient serum. It does the trick quickly, and it hasn’t let me down. It keeps my skin clear, keeps the pores tight, and keeps the skin looking fresh.”

5. She Cooks

Condor loves to cook. She shared one of her favorite recipes with E! News. “My go-to healthy recipe is always just a nice piece of fresh salmon, roasted Brussels sprouts in sunflower oil, and potatoes. Sometimes I'll just put a little citrus and salt on my salmon, other days I'll put some marinara sauce on the salmon, and it is so delicious.”

Lana Condor is looking red hot in her latest vacation snaps. After a weekend in Ojai, California, the star of the To All the Boys I’ve Ever Loved Before franchise, shared a "photo dump" with fans.

1. She Drinks a Lot of Water

Lana revealed to E! that she makes sure to stay hydrated. “I also drink at least half my body weight, in ounces, of water every day. Staying hydrated is such a must- and I genuinely feel better when my body is fully hydrated."

Lana explained to Self that she struggles with body dysmorphia. “I have to really, really, really tell myself that I am beautiful and my talent is valid. And I might look a little bit different than I did, whatever, a year ago,” she revealed.

3. She Does HIIT Workouts

Lana trains with Los Angeles personal trainer Paolo Mascittii five days a week virtually, doing cardio and high intensity interval training. Squats and lunges are a big part of their workout, and while tough, “it's worth it, because now I have a booty,” she told Self. They also use the slam ball. “I hate it, but it's very effective,” she said. “If I'm having a bad day or I have a little aggression, slamming that ball down on the ground really helps me. It always makes me feel a lot better when it's finished.”

4. She Takes Days Off When She Needs To

Lana gives herself the chance to recover when needed. “If my body is so sore and I need a day off, he's so understanding about that,” she said. “My mental health is the priority, and my mental health is always better when I am active. But sometimes when your body hurts, you're like, I can't do anything, I don't want to get up. And so he's very patient. If there's a day that I feel the need to be a little bit more gentle with myself, he's great.”

5. She Jumps Rope

Lana doesn’t have room to keep a treadmill, so she relies on a jump rope to keep her heart rate up.

6. She Exercises with Her Boyfriend

The couple that trains together, stays together. Lana revealed to Self that her boyfriend, Anthony De La Torre, is her workout buddy. “Anthony doesn't particularly love when I cheer him on when he's lifting, because it makes him laugh, and then he drops it,” she revealed “So I'm not allowed to cheer him on, but he could cheer me on.”

7. She Loves Group Fitness

“I always do a little bit better in a class setting or in-person, just because I think that I have a competitive nature in workout classes,” she told Self about why she likes group fitness. “So I feel like I can really hit it hard.” She enjoys Pilates, boxing, and hot yoga sculpt classes.

8. She Eats What Makes Her Happy

Lana’s food mantra is, “to eat what makes you happy,” she told Bon Appetit, adding that she doesn’t diet but tries to eat in moderation. “I’ve tried to take away noodles in my life, and it just doesn’t work—I’m miserable! I always think to myself, ‘Well, I could starve myself and go on a diet and be fucking miserable. But what if I die in a plane crash? Or, what if I have the most amazing meal of my life, and then I could still die in a plane crash, but at least I'd have a happy belly!”

“I also drink at least half my body weight, in ounces, of water every day,” she told E! about the importance of hydration. “Staying hydrated is such a must- and I genuinely feel better when my body is fully hydrated.” 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.

2. She Does HIIT Workouts

Lana trains with Paolo Mascittii who works out with her at the gym five days a week, guiding her with cardio and high-intensity interval training like squats and lunges. While her workouts are grueling, “it's worth it, because now I have a booty,” she told Self. They also do exercises with a slam ball. “I hate it, but it's very effective,” she said. “If I'm having a bad day or I have a little aggression, slamming that ball down on the ground really helps me. It always makes me feel a lot better when it's finished.” There is a lot of research backing up the benefits of HIIT workouts, including body fat reduction, improved cardiovascular function, and mental health. It is also time effective.

3. She Prioritizes Mental Health

Mental health comes first, says Lana. “If my body is so sore and I need a day off, he's so understanding about that,” she said. “My mental health is the priority, and my mental health is always better when I am active. But sometimes when your body hurts, you're like, I can't do anything, I don't want to get up. And so he's very patient. If there's a day that I feel the need to be a little bit more gentle with myself, he's great.”

5. She Eats in Moderation

Lana’s approach to diet is “to eat what makes you happy,” she told Bon Appetit. Her theory? Eat what you want but in moderation. “I’ve tried to take away noodles in my life, and it just doesn’t work—I’m miserable! I always think to myself, ‘Well, I could starve myself and go on a diet and be fucking miserable. But what if I die in a plane crash? Or, what if I have the most amazing meal of my life, and then I could still die in a plane crash, but at least I'd have a happy belly!”

I also feel like pleasure reading everyday keeps your brain active and your body calm. I also drink at least half my body weight, in ounces, of water every day. Staying hydrated is such a must- and I genuinely feel better when my body is fully hydrated. And I two walks a day, with my puppy, is always a must. Of course, for Emmy, but also to keep my body active and fresh air always makes me feel better. Some days, when I am having a really hard time waking up, I'll go on an early chilly walk with Emmy and it sets such an awesome energized tone for the rest of my day,” she told E! Online.

“Honestly, my favorite way to break a sweat right now is playing VR. We got a virtual reality headset, right as everything was shutting down, and it's been AMAZING during quarantine. There are so many games that make you work up a sweat and it's so awesome. I am genuinely so sore after I play,” she told E! Online.

3. She Tried Zumba During the Pandemic

“Zumba is a fitness program that combines Latin and international music with dance moves. Zumba routines incorporate interval training — alternating fast and slow rhythms — to help improve cardiovascular fitness,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Zumba is an aerobic activity that can count toward the amount of aerobic activity recommended for most healthy adults by the Department of Health and Human Services. The guidelines recommend at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week, or a combination of moderate and vigorous activity. But even small amounts of physical activity are helpful. Being active for short periods of time throughout the day can add up to provide health benefits.”

4. She Has a Trainer Who Gets Her

But sometimes when your body hurts, you're like, I can't do anything, I don't want to get up. And so he's very patient. If there's a day that I feel the need to be a little bit more gentle with myself, he's great.”

“Whenever [her boyfriend] Anthony [de la Torre] and I finish a workout or finish doing something that will better our physical bodies or our mind, he makes us clap and validate ourselves. We put on... I think it's called ‘Celebration,’” from Kool and the Gang, she tells Bustle. “He puts on ‘Celebration’ on speakers around the house. We're supposed to celebrate ourselves for 30 seconds or a minute because, he says, you have to tell yourself to celebrate these small steps that you've taken to take care of yourself. So when I finish working out, we clap and dance. It’s awesome.”

7. This is Her Wind-Down Routine

“I’m the type of person who works out in the morning to get it over with, because I know that when I get home, I just want to take a bath and eat some pasta and watch a show. So that’s what I do. Anthony… and I have been doing these incredible magnesium CBD baths every night. That’s been really amazing for my muscles because I’ve been working out more to get ready for my next movie. With everything our bodies have gone through in the past year, it really is so important to tell your muscles that it's OK to relax and to let your body heal. So I highly recommend tub time,” she tells Bustle.

Candace Cameron Bure is best known for her role as DJ Tanner on Full House, and the spinoff, Fuller House. She’s also starred in several Hallmark projects. Bure shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. In a recent video she posted, she is seen doing child’s pose, to laying on the floor, to a push-up.

In an interview with Cosmopolitan, Bure shared some of her wellness secrets. Since she does a lot of traveling, she makes sure to eat healthy on the plane rides. “I planned ahead, so I wouldn’t need to eat plane food, although I snacked on a banana and drank lots of water during the six-hour flight. When I fly, I always drink a ton of water — no alcohol — and limit my food intake, which makes me feel best when I land. Otherwise, my body reacts to salty food and alcohol by puffing up immediately.

2. She Loves Salad

Bure shared some of her favorite meals with Cosmopolitan. She says that she likes to order salads from restaurants for lunch. “Today, it was a kale salad with edamame, quinoa, and veggies, dressed with lemon and olive oil from Juice Press. I almost always order a salad, just mix it up with different restaurants and ingredients — sometimes sweet potatoes and steamed vegetables.”

3. She Works With A Trainer

Bure works with trainer, Kira Stokes, to help her stay in shape. “When I work out with Kira, sessions can run up to two hours,” Bure told Cosmopolitan. “She always incorporates a unique combination of functional movements, resistance training, and cardiovascular conditioning, using free weights, body weight, gliders, and portable equipment like jump rope, resistance bands, BOSU, and weighted balls.”

4. She Works Out For Her Mental Health

For Bure, exercising is a way to help with her mental health and wellbeing. "Just sweating that out and all those endorphins really help me a lot,” she explained to Prevention. “I notice a huge difference when I don’t exercise, how much it can affect me mentally and kind of deal with depression. That's why I keep going. There are a lot of benefits I get. My mind is most important, and exercise definitely helps that."

5. She Jumps Rope

One thing Bure likes to do to stay in shape is jump rope. She shared this video on Instagram of herself jumping rope. Bure captioned the post, “First, whips hurt. Second, this is the first time doing 12 double-unders in a row. Whoo Hoo! Does a jump in between still make it count? Just say YES 👍🏼! I’m learning 😜. #jumprope - P.S. some people have said my rope is too long, however I ordered a rope for exactly my height. When I stand on it, it comes just underneath my armpit- which is where it should land. Still think it’s too long?”
