Ajla Tomljanovic is looking pretty in pink in her swimsuit. The tennis star lounges by her pool in her latest series of social media snaps, making faces for the camera. “Sunday scaries…clearly,” she captioned the Instagram post. “Keeping it spicy,” one of her followers commented. How does the athlete stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Ajla Tomljanovic 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 Plays Tennis

Obviously, tennis is Ajla’s go-to stay fit method. According to ACE Fitness the racquet sport combines cardio and aerobic exercise."While tennis provides numerous health benefits—improved aerobic fitness and anaerobic endurance, muscular fitness (grip strength and endurance), flexibility, multiple skill parameters (balance, speed, agility and quickness), reactivity, and power—it also is psychologically demanding," they say.

2. She Walks Her Dog

Ajla also takes her dogs for walks. She captioned this snap of herself and her pooch, “Squirrel watching and Midnights on repeat….How’s your Saturday going?” Walking your dog every day can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. According to a study published in JAMA Internal Medicine, 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.

3. She Rides Horses

Ajla also loves riding horses, which offers many health benefits according to the American Heart Association. Not only does it boost cardiovascular health, but builds core strength, burns calories, and lowers blood pressure. It is also great for your mental health as it helps relax you.

4. She Hydrates

You will often find Ajla with a hydrating beverage in her hand. How much water should you drink? According to the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine men should aim for 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of fluids a day and women about 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) of fluids.

5. She Wears Weighted Training Apparel

Tomljanovic’s “secret weapon” is wearing weighted training apparel from Omorpho.“It’s basically weighted apparel for training,” she told Australian Open TV this year. “You basically do your usual workout, but you get much more out of it. And there’s science behind it. I didn’t know how it would go, because I haven’t used it up until this off-season. But I really feel like, fitness-wise, it helped me a lot.”

Millie Court, star of Love Island, sends “Postcards from Ibiza 🖤✨,” as she captioned a new swimsuit photo. “MILLIEEEEE 😍😍🔥,” said Kaz Kamwi in the comments. “Omg 😍😍😍😍😍,” said Liberty Poole. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Millie Court 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 Has Learned to Love Herself

“HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY ✨ Today is a day where we can celebrate us. I have so many women in my life who inspire me every day and I wanted to give a little something today that can hopefully inspire one of you. Loving our imperfections can be difficult, but when you learn to embrace them and realise that our imperfections don’t define us, they are just a part of us alongside everything else that creates you as a person. None of us are the same, and that’s a special thing. We are one of a kind 🤍 This picture shows me at my most vulnerable… but I’m learning to love myself, imperfections and all. And so should you,” she wrote once.

2. She Was Once “Unhealthily Skinny”

"I went from a size 10 to a six, and it’s the smallest I’ve ever been as a young adult. Because of my height, this made me look unhealthily skinny, of which I was (not eating barely anything, feeling ill all the time, tired, dizzy) and I remember looking at myself, I’d lost my boobs and my bum and those curves I once had and I missed them,” she wrote on Instagram. "The point of this [is], since coming out of Love Island, I found my love for food again and yes I’m getting back to my usual size."

3. She Likes a Nice Bath

“Drowning my sorrows in the bath because my Met Gala invite got lost 💔…,” she captioned one recent photo. Consider adding Epsom salt. “Pour about 300 grams (1.25 cups) of Epsom salt into a clean bathtub as it fills with hot water. (Avoid using Epsom salt in a tub with jets, a hot tub or a whirlpool bath unless the manufacturer says it’s OK.),” says the Cleveland Clinic.

4. This is Her Skin Icon

"At the moment the make-up I use does change fairly often, not necessarily my staples like concealer and foundation, but I do switch up the bronzers, blushers and mascara that I use,” she has said. Her icon? "Meghan Markle, her skin is absolutely flawless – her make-up always looks lovely as her make-up always looks lovely and natural."

5. She Has Had Acne

Pride Of Britain Awards 2021 - Red Carpet ArrivalsMike Marsland/WireImage

“I suffered from acne about a year and a half ago and then I started to work with a skin aesthetician, who helped me to find my skincare routine and helped me to start dealing with the breakouts. Now that my acne has gone, we are on more of a journey to find the right products; doing treatments like microneedling once a month to deal with the scarring. I am so happy with the outcome because the difference from what it was to now is just incredible. I genuinely used to think there was never going to be a time when I could get rid of the acne and I think when you are suffering you think it’s going to be with you forever. Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t an overnight process – it took me a year and a half to be acne free, but through a good skincare routine and using the right products it can be combated. My skin aesthetician advised me that the products you use to treat acne don’t start working for 4-6 months, so it took six months before I started to see a difference. The secret to good skin is also about good lifestyle, it’s all about looking after the inside to make your skin glow,” she told Hello.

Sofia Richie, the model and social media star, has been modeling since a young age, so she knows how to strike a pose. Now 23, she posted a photo of herself in a green swimsuit with a “Caribbean curl.” No wonder Vanessa Hudgens, Paris Hilton, Rita Ora and Katy Perry are followers. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Sofia Richie 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 Does Hardcore Workouts

“PAIN.” That was the caption of one of Richie’s workouts. She’s often seen at the Dogpound, the personal training gym that’s also home to Vanessa Hudgens and Hailey Bieber, among other celebs. Trainer Kevin Mejia has shared footage of her working hard; in one video, she’s got a leg band and doing extensions, holding her core tight. “LOVE THE PROCESS JUST AS MUCH YOU LOVE THE PRIZE,” Mejia has captioned some of his own workouts. “WILL NOT LOSE… PUT SOMETHIN ON IT.”

2. She Loves to Swim

Richie frequently posts photos in a bathing suit, often from “paradise.” Swimming can help everything from your mood to your core to tamping down dementia. In one study, “Preliminary evidence suggests that a dementia-specific, aquatic exercise intervention reduces BPSD and improves psychological well-being in people with moderate to severe dementia. With further testing, this innovative intervention may prove effective in addressing some of the most challenging aspects of dementia care.”

3. She Has a Positive Outlook

"I always live by having fun and never taking things too seriously," she told Grazia. "I know that everyone has this perfect image that they have to uphold, but I think that you'll live a happier life if you just smile more and have fun." “Indeed, some studies show that personality traits such as optimism and pessimism can affect many areas of your health and well-being. The positive thinking that usually comes with optimism is a key part of effective stress management. And effective stress management is associated with many health benefits. If you tend to be pessimistic, don't despair — you can learn positive thinking skills,” says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Has Faced Down Panic Attacks

Richie told Teen Vogue she suffered from panic attacks. “I would convince myself that I was panicking or that I wasn’t comfortable, and once I realized that I was doing that to myself and nothing was actually wrong with me, I was totally fine,” she said.

5. She Meditates

If ever panicky, Richie meditates. “I know how to be like, 'Calm down, you’re here. There’s nothing to panic about,'” she told Teen Vogue. “Meditation is a simple, quick way to reduce stress that you can do wherever you are. Meditation is considered a type of mind-body complementary medicine. Meditation can produce a deep state of relaxation and a tranquil mind. During meditation, you focus your attention and eliminate the stream of jumbled thoughts that may be crowding your mind and causing stress. This process may result in enhanced physical and emotional well-being,” says the Mayo Clinic.

Gezary Matuda is a professional fighter and champion, known for practicing jiu-jitsu. She is currently spending time in Brazil, and just shared a stunning new photo on Instagram. In it, Matuda sunbathed on the beach. She wore a white bathing suit and a multicolored bucket hat, her toned body on display. She captioned the post, “Today is a rough one.” How does she stay so fit?

1. She’s Not Afraid To Be Vulnerable

Matuda opened up about her career to The Jiu-Jitsu Times. She says that she isn’t afraid of showing her soft side once in a while. “Professional athletes, we don’t show a lot of emotion,” she explains. “We train to be killers. We train to be strong. We don’t want to show a weak side. If you have a moment of weakness, you clean up your tears and keep fighting. So, to open up to someone you trust, and admit that you’re feeling kind of weak, and to have someone listen – that makes a huge difference when you’re dealing with a career transition.”

2. She’s Motivated By Success

Matuda talked about about what motivates her to The Jiu-Jitsu Times. “There is nothing that compares to this great feeling of being a world champion as a black belt,” she says. “The feeling that all that hard work paid off. It’s hard to find something else that’s going to give you the same pleasure in life. So that’s why you want more, and more, and more. Every year you win that title, it feeds that adrenaline. You get addicted to this feeling. Everything else feels boring. Everything! If you ask me if I do something outside of jiu-jitsu, my answer is just ‘eat, sleep, and train.’ This is what brings us pleasure – the serotonin, the adrenaline, all the things that make us feel great. That’s why I think it’s so hard when you start to think about stopping.”

3. She Does Ab Circuits

Being a professional athlete, Matuda has to stay in shape and work out on a regular basis. She shares a lot of her favorite exercises on Instagram. Matuda likes to circuit train. In this video, she shared one of her ab circuits. Matuda is seen doing sit-ups, toe-touches, and heel touches, starfish crunches, and side-plank ups. She captioned the video, “Abs on fire.”

4. She Knows Herself

Matuda talked about how she manages her mental health to The Jiu-Jitsu Times. She says that one of her secrets is just knowing and staying in-tune with herself. “I’d think to myself, ‘I’m so good at what I do, what am I going to do next? I don’t know how to do anything else.’ That’s when you feel so lost. And that’s when depression and anxiety happen. That’s why you have to know yourself.”

5. She Swims

Matuda loves to swim as a way to stay in shape. She shared this photo of herself in a pool in Miami Beach on Instagram. Matuda captioned it, “From Florida with love.” Matuda also posted this photo of herself wading in the ocean. She captioned it, “Who protects me doesn’t sleep. Happy Friday everyone!”

German Model Leonie Hanne Stuns in Style

From coffee perks to Pilates workouts, learn her daily habits for a balanced lifestyle.

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 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.”
