Monalisa in Workout Gear Works Up a Sweat Having "Rehearsal Vibes"

Lisa Meiswinkel is posing in her gym outfit – and ready to compete. In a new social media post the bodybuilder shows off her amazing body in a two-piece workout set while training in Germany. “Currently exactly 1.4kg above Stage and Las Vegas,” she writes in the caption of the Instagram photo. “Now it's been two weeks since the Olympics and we are still on the road with 2x training a week. We're resting a little more and giving time to the body. Also in the reverse/regeneration we will pay attention to keeping the body fit healthy and also of kfa good as just in the offseason,” which she calls “improvement season,” revealing that she has adapted her training. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. Warming Up

What are her top 3 tips and tricks for preparing for training and recovery? “Before training, warm up by cycling for a few minutes and maybe even stretching. If you have tension, you can even roll up your muscles a little with a fascia roller. After training, I sometimes walk on the treadmill for a few minutes to get rid of the lactate from training,” she told Reboots. “Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints,” says Harvard Health. “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.”

2. Routine

An optimal day looks “structured and organized” for Lisa. “Routines are very important to me and lead to success, I would say. Waking up early in the morning, taking a short morning walk in the fresh air. Then some laptop work. Training, a short nap, and in the evening, my cardio on the spinning bike and mobility exercises,” she says.

3. Sleep and Massage

“Good and sufficient sleep” is also “very important,” Lisa tells Reboots. “This is followed by mobility training, as this also promotes recovery enormously, as well as massages.” According to the Sleep Foundation, getting enough z’s is a mood booster, promotes heart health, regulates blood sugar, improves mental function, restores your immune system, helps relieve stress, and aids in weight loss. According to the Mayo Clinic, studies support the many benefits of getting a regular rub down. These include stress reduction, lessening pain and muscle tightness, increased relaxation, and improved immunity.

4. Pose Training

What does Lisa do in her free time? “I love posing training, whether I'm posing for myself or giving posing lessons to others and being able to pass on my passion. That is absolutely my passion,” she told Reboots.

5. Reverse Dieting

Lisa doesn’t always diet! “When the current competition season is over, I start the reverse diet. I also see this as progress towards reaching my goal. I say yes 365 days a year,” she says.

Louise Redknapp is letting fans see what her live performance dance rehearsals look like. Redknapp, 49, shared a video of herself wearing black pants and a white shirt, going through a routine with her team. “A little look behind the scenes at Mighty Hoopla rehearsals 🤍 been having so much fun putting this show together for you! See you at 6.40pm this Sunday xxx,” she captioned the post. “How does she still look soooo amazing 😍🔥,” a fan commented. Here’s how the British singer stays fit, happy, and full of energy.

1. She Loves Pilates

Redknapp enjoys Pilates workouts on the reformer machine. "I love Pilates on the tower or on the reformer just because it's quick and it feels like a proper workout,” she told HELLO!. “One of my best friends is a pilates instructor so get through the whole hour. I think that's why I love it so much because I just lie there, my legs in straps doing an exercise and we're chatting away so it's lovely, just a nice thing to go and do."

2. Peloton and Love Island

Redknapp likes to ride her stationary bike while watching TV. “I've got a Peloton at home,” she told HELLO!. “I watch Love Island and go for a bike ride in the lounge, [people] must be looking [at me] like 'what was she doing?' If I've got a night in, I get on the Peloton, bike ride, do a few situps, then I'm done.”

3. Natural Beauty

Redknapp credits her preference for a natural look for her glowing skin. “I think it has something to do with the make-up I wear and the products I put on my skin,” she told Women’s Fitness. “I have always used quite a dewy base on my face which perhaps gives it a slight shine. I prefer a natural look to a full-on face of glam make-up.”

4. Grounded Life

Redknapp says she lives a very grounded life. “I am very aware I have had an amazing life and a great career, which has not come easy and has required a lot of hard work,” she told Women’s Fitness. “As long as I surround myself with the right people, I am OK. My two sons are my absolute world. The media speculate why I am not out there in the papers being photographed dating or with a new man on my arm, but I have not chosen to take that path. My priority is and always will be to be the best mum I can to my kids, who are my pride and joy.”

5. Not a Gym Bunny

Redknapp is not always motivated to work out. “If someone said to me, 'do you want to meet for a drink and a bit of dinner on Tuesday night or go to the gym?' I mean, I'm always going to meet my mate for dinner,” she told HELLO!. “The gym is not at the front of my priorities. I'm not a big gym bunny… I'd love to do yoga but after about three minutes I start thinking about all the other things I should be doing rather than sitting in this position and thinking I haven't got time for this today.”

Romee Strijd is a successful model. She’s best known for being a Victoria’s Secret Angel. Strijd recently hit the gym, and shared photos on Instagram. In them, she wore a green top, pants, and hoodie. She captioned the post, “Monday morning mood.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Romee Strijd stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. She Does Yoga & Pilates

Strijid shared some of her secrets for staying fit for jobs to HollywoodLife. She says that she does a combination of yoga and Pilates. “I do a lot of pilates lately,” she shared. “I feel like that’s really good. And yoga to lengthen your legs out. I’ll try to do it three days a week. It really depends on my work schedule. I just uploaded my YouTube video on how to lengthen your legs.”

2. She Eats Healthy

Strijd makes sure to eat healthy. She shared her typical diet with HollywoodLife. “Breakfast is toast with avocado and an egg then I’ll probably have a snack around 11, like a nice piece of fruit. Lunch is mostly a good carb, like brown rice with chicken or salmon and some vegetables and then I’ll have a juice in the afternoon. At dinnertime, I’ll make a big salad or pasta — Anything I feel like!”

3. She Works Out A Lot Before A Job

Whenever Strijd has a big job, like a fashion show, she makes sure to do a lot of workouts leading up to it. “I don’t really cut out any food,” she tells HollywoodLife. “I workout more often so I really need food to build some muscle. I definitely amp up my workouts and workout around 5 days a week for one and a half hours a day.”

4. She Uses Her Abs

Strijd shared her workout secrets in an interview with ELLE. She says that she makes sure to use her abs in all exercises, even when she’s not doing ab exercises. “For abs, I like a little circuit on the mat. With every [exercise], you should always be using your abs—even when you do squats. Try to feel them [with every movement]. I’ve been doing everything myself with ankle weights and resistance bands, and I bring my jump rope when I travel. You can even do it in a hotel room if you have a mat.”

5. She’s Motivated To Workout

Strijd makes sure to workout on a regular basis. She shared her secrets for staying motivated in her interview with ELLE. “I’m not always motivated, but you just have to go do it because afterwards you feel so great and you enjoy the day more because you’ve done it. So, just start somewhere. Just do something. Say to yourself that you only have 15 minutes or something and then it comes from there.”

Rashida Jones is showing off her dance moves – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the Sunny actress flaunts her amazing figure while dancing with John Havic. “Dancing into summer,” 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. Pilates

Jones doesn’t consider herself a "[workout] freak," she told Women's Health. She rarely sticks to a routine. "I'll go through stages when I get really into something; like, I'll start running six times a week," she said. "Right now I'm into pilates three times a week, which is great because it makes me feel strong."

2. Spinning

Jones told Health that she also likes spinning. The Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis. Why is pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic there are lots of benefits to the workout, 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, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

3. Meditation

Jones gets wellness inspiration from her mom, Peggy Lipton. "She has always been holistic about beauty — she puts on sunblock, drinks a ton of water, takes care of herself, meditates. I'm less strict, but I do meditate, eat well, work out. And I love being in nature with no mirrors — just trees and a good sweat,” she said. “When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress,” says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:

• Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
• Building skills to manage your stress
• Increasing self-awareness
• Focusing on the present
• Reducing negative emotions
• Increasing imagination and creativity
• Increasing patience and tolerance
• Lowering resting heart rate
• Lowering resting blood pressure
• Improving sleep quality

4. Loving the Post Exercise Feel

While Jones hates exercise "more than anything when I am on my way to the gym," she told Health, she tries to think about that post-exercise glow. "I love exercise more than anything as soon as I leave the gym and for the rest of the day," she said.

5. Dancing

Jones revealed to Health that her workout inspiration comes from Fox's So You Think You Can Dance. "Those dancers are ridiculously strong and amazing," she said. "It makes me want to move my body (in a much less graceful way)." Dancing is a great workout for many reasons. Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.
