Linn Lowes is sharing a new workout – in her exercise clothes. In a new social media post the influencer and fitness guru flaunts her amazing figure in a one-piece workout look. “Fun little lower body workout without Hip Trusts/Reverse Kicks for once hehe. Send to someone who you want to try this with next session!” she captioned the Instagram video. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. She Discovered Fitness Through a Lymphoma Battle

“I was born and raised in Sweden, and from a young age, I was always passionate about health and fitness. However, my life took an unexpected turn in my early 20s when I was diagnosed with lymphoma, a type of cancer. This was an incredibly challenging period for me, both physically and emotionally. But through it all, I discovered a strength within myself that I never knew I had,” Linn told Authority Magazine. “During my treatment and recovery, I realized how crucial it was to maintain a positive mindset and stay active. Fitness became my therapy and my source of empowerment. It helped me regain control over my body and my life. After I went into remission, I decided to dedicate myself to helping others find their own strength through fitness and a healthy lifestyle.”

2. Exercising to Feel Good

Linn doesn’t exercise only for her body. “I believe that fitness is not just about looking good; it’s about feeling strong, confident, and capable. My goal is to inspire others to overcome their own obstacles and realize their full potential,” she says.

3. Building a Positive Mindset

She also works on herself from within. “Building a positive mindset and practicing self-love are essential for long-term well-being. Celebrate achievements, however small, and practice self-compassion during setbacks. I often share motivational messages and personal stories on social media to encourage my followers to embrace their journey with kindness and resilience. It’s free!” she says.

4. Food As Fuel

Linn Lowes.4Linn Lowes/Instagram

Linn maintains that how you think about eating is key. “Start thinking about food as something that should nurture you, not just keep you full. Food is fuel for both your body and mind, and choosing nutrient-dense, wholesome options can have a profound impact on your overall well-being. When you view food as a source of nourishment, you prioritize quality over quantity, focusing on foods that provide essential vitamins, minerals, and energy,” she explains. “For example, instead of reaching for processed snacks that may satisfy hunger temporarily but lack nutritional value, consider incorporating whole foods like fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains into your diet. These foods not only provide sustained energy but also support various bodily functions, from boosting immunity to enhancing cognitive function.”

5. Here Is Her Lower Body Workout

Here is Linn’s lower body workout:

  1. Angled Kickbacks 3x15/leg
  2. ⁠Smith Split Squat 3x12/leg
  3. ⁠Standing DB Abduction 3x20/leg

  5. ⁠Straight Kickbacks 3x10/leg

Jena Sims is getting her sweat on in her sleek, home gym. In a new social media post the model shows off her amazing figure in a two-piece Alo exercise set during a lower body workout with her trainer, Olivia Figueroa. “Never met a lower body day we didn’t like @jenamsims 🍑🍑🍑🍑 lean, toned, strong, intentional, sexy,” the personal trainer captioned the video clip. These "days are the best days!” added Sims. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Strength Training

When it comes to building muscle, strength training is Sims go-to method. “I’m not a calm, soothing Pilates, yoga princess. I’m like, ‘Scream at me.’ I want to be dripping sweat,” she continued. “I want loud music, heavy weights. For my body type, I like to lift weights because I don’t need to do a lot of cardio. I find that lifting weights has been the most beneficial,” she told Fox. “I've been working on just upping my weights a little bit,” she added to Daily Mail. “I can get into this sweet spot and get kind of in a plateau of working out, so I upped my weights after seeing her video because I was so impressed by what she did with her fitness. I'm trying to lift heavier. Trying to build a [backside].”

Exercise Classes

Jena enjoys group fitness. “My favorite type of workout is F45,” she told FOX. “It’s just a 45-minute class. And I think I like it so much because they play amazing music and it’s so loud.”

No Diets

Jena doesn’t diet. Even if she has a big shoot or runway show ahead of her, “ all I'm doing is just eating as clean as I can, but I'm still splurging,” she told Daily Mail. “Like, I had four dinner rolls last night at this charity event as well as my meal.”

Barre Workouts

Jena also likes to “mix it up” when it comes to exercise. She loves Pure Barre classes, a fusion of yoga, Pilates, and ballet and a “full body, low impact workout” for everybody, according to the brand. “Barre helps strengthen and tone your muscles without increasing bulk, and it improves your posture. It also increases cardiovascular endurance and metabolism, which helps to quickly burn calories. Regular barre workouts can increase your bone density, which can help prevent conditions like osteoporosis,” adds Barre studio Physique 57.

Here is How to Get Her Abs

Jena’s trainer recently shared her ab workout:

weighted march - 20 reps

side crunch - 10 reps

sit up + twist - 10 reps

knee tuck - 20 reps

Fitness influencer Linn Lowes is emphasizing the mental health aspects of exercise to her 3.4 million Instagram followers. Lowes shared a video of herself wearing red two-piece workout gear, doing a slow, controlled workout. “When the intrusive thoughts are running wild in my head, this is what I turn to. These types of movement make it difficult to focus on anything else but the actual movement—slow, controlled, and preferably in a beautiful location. Did you know physical movement can help with mental health?” she captioned the post. Here’s how Lowes stays fit, happy, and healthy.


1. Fun Workouts

Lowes knows it’s easier to stick to a workout routine if you actually enjoy the exercise. “I honestly believe you should do what you enjoy. There’s no must,” she told Women Fitness. “Weightlifting, cardiovascular health (cardio) and stretching will however help you live longer, age slower and be happier (endorphins). I'd love to go back into horseback riding at some point in my life.”

2. Balanced Diet

Linn LowesLinn Lowes/Instagram

Lowes likes to start her day with oatmeal, fresh berries, and green juice. “I think it's dangerous to be too strict with your diet,” she told Women Fitness. “That will only make you want what you can’t have even more. Enjoy everything in moderation. Feeling bad because you missed a workout or had dessert is the worst thing you can do to yourself. If you’re gonna treat yourself you better enjoy it – haha! Again, your mind plays a huge role in your wellbeing. Be kind to yourself.”

3. Be Kind

Lowes is careful about practicing kindness in her life. Reminder: Everyone you meet has a story. Just because you don’t know about it doesn’t mean it’s not there. We’re way too quick to judge other these days so here’s a little reminder to stay kind & patient. ❤️True strength is a multifaceted quality that extends beyond physical prowess. While muscles may showcase one aspect of strength, the essence of true power lies in the resilience to face life’s challenges head-on,” she captioned an Instagram post.

4. Lower Body Workout

Lowes has a few favorite routines for the lower body. “LOVED THIS SESS for lower boddd 🔥 It’s definitely a must try, with or without boyfriend filming lol. You know you know.

1️⃣ Smith Step Ups 2x15/leg as warm up

2️⃣ SM Front Squats 3x12 always loved fronts

3️⃣ Hack Squats 4x12 holy glutes this one is good

4️⃣ Reverse/Frog Kicks 4x15 my absolute fave for glute isolation

5️⃣ Cable Donkey Kicks 3x12/leg (put the stability weight on your arms so you don’t just feel this is the supporting leg, huge key!)”

5. Health Is Wealth

Lowes is a cancer survivor, which makes her appreciate her good health more than ever. “Health is always the most important aspect because without health we have nothing,” she told Women Fitness. “If you’re sick it does not matter how rich or skinny or famous you are. Believe me, I’ve been there. If you have health, you are rich. For some people weight loss is necessary to maintain health and to some a weight gain is just as important. I wish society could understand this and accept the fact that weight gain could be life changing and beautiful too.”

Powerlifter Kristy Hawkins Shares "Squat Workout"

Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Kristy Hawkins is getting a workout in and explaining why she opted out of Queen of the Platform. In a new social media post the powerlifter shows off her strength and impressive physique in a two-piece exercise set during a workout. “So this was my last squat workout before flying out to Florida to compete at Queen of the Platform, and I felt some tearing in my right outer quad halfway up. The swelling was not that bad so I thought there was about a 50/50 chance I could still compete. I flew out here, weighed in, and warmed up to about 200kg before making the difficult decision to pull out of the meet. It’s a pretty minor injury but I still felt a sharp pain that let me know it was not going to be a good day. I just need a little more time to heal,” she captioned the Instagram video. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here are all of her top diet and fitness tips.

Cardio Doesn't Always Cut It

Close,Up,Shoes,Woman's,Muscular,Legs,Feet,During,Running, TreadmillShutterstock

Kristy, a PhD, was overweight as a teen. She told Muscle & Fitness that she struggled and used extreme dieting to lose weight, and developed an eating disorder. She also devoted a lot of time to “work off” the excess weight with cardio and dance.

Take a Walk

Kristy understands the importance of getting her steps in. Luckily her dog, He-Man the Pug, who accompanies her to the gym, motivates her to walk. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Swim

Kristy also enjoys swimming — and so does He-Man. “Had to repost from @he_man_the_pug because I love him so much and am slightly sorry I traumatized him. But I loved how he kept trying to climb on top of my shoulders,” she joked in a caption about one of their swimming sessions. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, according to the CDC. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.

Train Your Brain

Aside from being one of the best female powerlifters of all time, Kristy is always training her mind. She is actually a biologist! “Not powerlifting-related but this is how @he_man_the_pug and I spend our days. I’m proud to be a co-founder and CSO of Antheia using synthetic biology to revolutionize the way plant-inspired medicines are manufactured. #dogsofantheia #science,” she captioned a post.

Lift Weights

However, it wasn’t until she started strength training that she was able to heal. “In the same way my brain seemed natural to respond to learning about science and math,” she explains to Muscle & Fitness, “my body responded to exercise and training. I found that developing these two aspects of my life – mind, and body – created a balance that I found extremely rewarding.”

Sami Bossert, a highly successful fitness trainer with a large Instagram following, frequently shares her favorite workout clothes and fitness tips. With the arrival of fall, she recently showcased her new seasonal wardrobe in a video on Instagram, featuring brown, blue, and red tones. She captioned the post, "And just like that…🍁 the perfect fall collection is now available to shop!! —> ptula.com What item(s) are you grabbing or would you loveeee from this collection? 🍂" Along with sharing her style, Bossert stays dedicated to her health and fitness, motivating her followers with a mix of light and intense workouts that focus on strength and well-being.


1. She Does Light Impact Workouts

Bossert makes sure to do intense workouts. However, she prefers to do light impact workouts as well. Bossert shared some of her favorites in this Instagram video, captioning it, “A fun little light impact (but certainly not light intensity) warmup on this weeks BONUS Full Body Day inside my app 😜 Ooo baby it was a fun one! Week 2 of the Challenge has commenced and we’re moving into Week 3!! So so proud of my team for sticking to it to the best of their abilities 👏👏”

2. She Works Out Regularly

Bossert makes sure to workout on a regular basis. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “You’ll put time into the things that you really care about and matter to you. Your physical health and wellness should be one of them. 💪🏼Tomorrow begins my newest challenge inside my fitness app! SWEAT IT OUT. Sign up with the link in my bio. Wanna just give my app a try? Try it for FREE for a week!”

3. She Does Lower Body Workouts

Bossert likes to do lower body workouts like squats and lunges to stay in shape. She shared this video of herself doing them on Instagram. Bossert captioned it, “Hardest part of this was editing it down to be under 90 seconds for this darn reel 🤣 But here we are !! A few common questions I hope I answered for you in this video are: Q : What can I do if lunges hurt my knees? A : The Smith Machine is a great tool where you can perform multiple versions of squats and lunges and helps pull some of that impact and weight off of your knees.”

4. She Does Glute Bridges

Sami Bossert.4Sami Bossert/Instagram

Bossert shared this video on her Instagram story of herself doing glute bridges. NASM states that the workout 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.”

5. She Uses A Resistance Band

In the previous video, Bossert is also seen using a resistance band. Harvard Health states that these have a lot of benefits. “They can prepare your muscles for the many types of movements you make throughout the day, such as when you stretch, bend, lift, or simply rise from a chair. In addition, training with bands improves muscle power, which helps you avoid falls and risk of injury. Bands are especially helpful if you have trouble gripping or holding dumbbells, or need greater control when doing exercises, such as if you're recovering from an injury or dealing with joint pain.”

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.

Tammy Hembrow is "More Motivated Than Ever"

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

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

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.”
