January is not always the most fun month, with many people embarking on new diet regimens and grueling exercise routines—but Alex Scott is having the time of her life. The professional soccer player and Strictly Come Dancing star posted a cheerful series of pictures of herself on Instagram where she’s enjoying the pool and beach in a patterned bathing suit. “Smiles, sunsets and good company 🙂,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Scott 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 Never Skips Breakfast

Scott doesn’t start the day without a good breakfast. “I always eat breakfast as it gives me more energy for training,” she says. “My favorite is bagel and jam, with a bowl of fruit.” "Studies have found that although people who skip breakfast eat slightly fewer calories during the day, they tend to have higher body mass index, or BMI," says Christy C. Tangney, PhD, a professor of clinical nutrition at RUSH University and an expert on the effects of diet and nutrition on heart health. “Much of the research just makes good common sense. If you start with a healthy, satisfying meal in the morning you're less apt to nibble on less nutritious things during the day, which we often do out of hunger — you grab the first or easiest thing in front of you."

2. 5K Runs Every Other Day

Scott says health and fitness has always been important to her. “It’s naturally a huge part of my life and has been for years as a former professional athlete,” she says. “While now my health and fitness regime isn’t scheduled daily as it used to be, it remains crucial in terms of my physical and mental performance. Going for a 5k run every other morning is a new thing for me, I would have never done that before as part of my training but I am loving the little challenge it is giving to try and improve my personal best each time I do it. It gets me in the right frame of mind for the day ahead.”

3. Peloton Workouts

Scott loves working out on her Peloton. “I also do Peloton classes three to four times a week,” she says. “I would say Peloton was a life-saver for me last year as it allowed me to exercise most days and connect with friends through the bike and fun workouts. Because of my ankle injuries from football, I can’t really pound the streets everyday, so doing the bike workout helps. For me, health and fitness is an essential and it’s something I will always prioritise as it benefits me in every single part of my life.”

4. Fitness For Mental Health

The mental health benefits of fitness are incredibly important to Scott. “Fitness is a big part of my mental health – simply put, it makes me feel better, it helps get my mind set for a productive day, and it allows my brain to switch off from work,” she says. “It lets my mind be in the present and focus on what I need to do to get through the run or bike class I am doing. I love listening to music or a podcast while I’m running. I’ve always been vocal about the benefits of therapy and that is now a constant part of life for me. Therapy has helped me immensely.”

5. Balanced Diet

Scott is sensible about her diet and leaves room for occasional indulgences. “A typical day will involve a Jason Vale juice for breakfast,” she says. “I don’t juice because I am on a diet or trying to promote anything, it’s just something that works for me and I enjoy them. I think that’s so important to anyone reading this – you have to find what works for you and your lifestyle, there’s no one rule for everyone. I have a homemade soup for lunch and a healthy dinner of chicken or salmon and vegetables. I tend to indulge at weekends though, and when out for dinner with my friends – I love great food and cocktails!”

Carolina Santos is making the most out of summer in her swimsuit! The Married at First Sight star flaunts her swerving curves via her latest social media post. “Good times and tan lines,” she captioned her latest Instagram snap, posing on the beach in a black bathing suit. How does the reality star keep herself in great physical form? Read on to see 5 ways Carolina Santos 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. Her Boyfriend Is a Personal Trainer

The couple that sweat together, stay together. Carolina’s boyfriend, Daniel Holmes, is a personal trainer, so obviously he helps the reality star maintain her curves. On Married At First Sight, the duo got their sweat on together at the gym, doing a variety of strength training exercises. "You can do strength training with inexpensive resistance tubing or even your own body weight. Proper technique is important, however, to prevent injury and gain the most benefit. With proper technique, you may enjoy noticeable improvements in your strength and stamina over time," says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Is a Foodie

Carolina loves food. She has an entire tab on her Instagram account dedicated to her culinary adventures. Some of her favorites? Grilled steak, seafood, pasta, and veggies. “Would the way to my heart be cheese and wine or meal prep? Take a guess?” she captioned a photo on her Instagram.

3. She Loves Watersports

Santos loves watersports, including standup paddling. She regularly shares photos of her sessions, including this one taken in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio.

4. She Also Loves Snow Sports

In the winter, you can find Carolina snowboarding. "The best project you'll ever work on, is you," she captioned a set of snaps taken on the slopes at the Persisher Snow Resort in Canada. "Them sunny days in winterland,” she captioned another series.

5. She Hikes

Santos also loves breaking a sweat by going for a hike. "One of the most beautiful places I've ever been, I'm so blessed! Even when things go wrong they still turn out just right!" she captioned an Instagram of herself hiking in the Andes Mountains of Santiago, Chile.

As a reality TV contestant, Carolina Santos knows how to get attention, and her social media is proof of that. The Married At First Sight star posted a photo of herself posing against a brick wall in a tiny yellow bikini, captioning the shot “That sun glow ☀️💛.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Santos 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 Loves Cheese and Wine

Santos says cheese and wine is “the way to my heart”. When it comes to dairy, experts say the less processed, the better. Opt for less processed dairy products – think flavorful cheeses like Parmesan, feta or part-skim mozzarella instead of processed American slices, and plain Greek yogurt instead of high-sugar flavored varieties,” says Julia Zumpano, RD, LD.

2. She Loves to Jet Ski

Jodi Gordon Attends Life Botanics LaunchDon Arnold/WireImage

Santos loves to get out on the ocean on a jet ski when she gets the chance. “Jet ski is a great exercise; you burn a lot of calories, get some cardiovascular work, learn how to maintain proper balance, release a lot of stress, and you can even work many different muscle groups,” says Tim Conner, MD. “The most important thing is that this activity is also fun, which has mental health benefits.”

3. She Enjoys Swimming

Santos likes to swim both in the pool and out in the ocean. “Swimming has long been recognized for its cardiovascular benefits,” says Seena Mathew, Assistant Professor of Biology at The University of Mary Hardin-Baylor. “Because swimming involves all of the major muscle groups, the heart has to work hard, which increases blood flow throughout the body. This leads to the creation of new blood vessels, a process called angiogenesis. The greater blood flow can also lead to a large release of endorphins—hormones that act as a natural pain reducer throughout the body. This surge brings about the sense of euphoria that often follows exercise.”

4. She Loves Lobster

Santos loves to treat herself to some delicious lobster when she’s on vacation. “Lobster provides a significant amount of minerals, such as zinc, calcium, phosphorus, selenium, and potassium, as well as B vitamins,” says Faye L. Dong, PhD, professor emerita, department of food science and human nutrition, University of Illinois. “If you eat lobster one day a week and a fattier fish like salmon one or two times a week, you’ll have your omega-3 intake covered for the week,” says Eric Rimm, ScD, professor of epidemiology and nutrition, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

5. She Drinks Beer

Santos likes to indulge in an ice-cold Heineken once in a while. “Beer contains vitamin B6, which prevents the build-up of the amino-acid homocysteine that has been linked to heart disease,” says Jim Collins, PhD. “People with higher levels of homocysteine tend to be at higher risk of an earlier onset of heart and vascular disease. Almost everything we eat or drink can provide health benefits as long as they are consumed in moderation.”

Love Island star Francesca Allen spent a day at the beach, and she made sure to have some stunning photos to show for it. Allen posted a photo of herself posing on the shore in a bright blue bathing suit and a white cover-up. She captioned the post, “So you say you want to get away.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Francesca Allen 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’s Comfortable With Her Skin

Allen has struggled with her skin, specifically her acne, all her life. However, when she appeared on Love Island, she learned to accept her skin and wasn’t insecure about it. "I remember being in the villa and thinking 'all these girls are so beautiful and flawless' and there were guys I was trying to impress,” she said to Hello! Magazine. "I wasn't gonna start sleeping in makeup - I haven't slept in makeup my whole life - I would have made it worse in the long run and I would have felt even more conscious of my face… so I owned it.”

2. She Went Back To Training

Allen revealed on Instagram that she had lost a lot of weight recently, and that it was the result of finding love for herself again that inspired her to go back to training. "I'm strong in myself and I have that strength in my body that I used to have like over two years ago. I just had lost love for training, I'd lost love myself."

3. She Spends Time By The Water

Allen loves to spend time at the beach and by the water, and she makes sure to take a lot of stunning photos for Instagram. She has posted several beach shots of herself on social media. “Being outside offers other benefits, too. It offers an emotional boost and can help you feel less tense, stressed, angry or depressed. And sunlight can give your body vitamin D, too,” says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Goes Hiking

The Beauty Awards 2019Lia Toby/Getty Images

Another of Allen’s favorite outdoor activities is hiking. She posted this series of photos on Instagram of a trip she took. A couple of these shots were of her hiking on the road, and of the stunning scenery she saw. She captioned the photo, “So much Happiness in the simplest of things.” “Get moving with these low-risk outdoor activities during the COVID-19 pandemic,” suggests the Mayo Clinic:

  • “Walking, running and hiking
  • Rollerblading and biking
  • Fishing and hunting
  • Golfing
  • Rock or ice climbing
  • Kayaking, canoeing, diving, boating or sailing
  • Skiing, including cross-country and downhill skiing
  • Ice skating
  • Snowboarding
  • Sledding
  • Snowshoeing
  • Fitness classes, held outside or virtually, that allow distance”

5. She Keeps a Positive Attitude

“I just like to smile… smiling is my favourite!” Francesca once captioned a post, asking if you could name that film. (The answer? Pretty sure it’s Elf.) Her good mood helps her health. “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.

Sunlight exposure triggers the release of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood. Increased serotonin levels can improve feelings of happiness, reduce stress, and alleviate symptoms of depression. Research suggests that sunlight exposure may have cognitive benefits, including improved memory, focus, and mental performance. Sunlight stimulates the production of growth factors in the brain that support neuronal health and function.

Traveling allows you to break away from your daily routine, escape work-related stress, and unwind. It gives you an opportunity to relax, rejuvenate, and recharge, which can have a positive impact on your mental and emotional well-being. Many travel experiences involve physical activities such as walking tours, hiking, swimming, or even adventurous activities like rock climbing or skiing. Engaging in these activities can help you stay active, improve cardiovascular health, and enhance overall fitness.

Dressed in a sleek black workout set, she didn’t just make the workout look effortless—she made it look empowering. Adding a playful pun to her caption, she wrote, “Never tyre’d of a good beach workout.”
So, how does she stay in such incredible shape? From strength training to boxing, here’s a look at her go-to fitness moves.

She Strength Trains

In her Instagram post, Sharvari is seen doing a strength training exercise. The Mayo Clinic says that strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories. Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

She Does Yoga

Sharvari shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. One thing she likes to do is yoga. Sharvari posted this video of herself doing poses on her page. John Hopkins Medicine states that yoga is very beneficial. “Regular yoga practice may reduce levels of stress and body-wide inflammation, contributing to healthier hearts. Several of the factors contributing to heart disease, including high blood pressure and excess weight, can also be addressed through yoga.”

She Plays Padel

Sharvari likes to play padel to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself on the court. Playing padel has a lot of health benefits. Everybody Health & Leisure says, “It improves cardiovascular fitness, helps to build strength and endurance, enhances coordination and promotes overall physical and mental well-being. Not to mention, it’s a fantastic way to burn calories.”

She Boxes

Another thing that Sharvari does to keep herself in shape is box. She first picked this up when training for the film, Vedaa. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself punching a bag. Sharvari captioned the post, “BEAST MODE on for Vedaa! ⚠️☠️🥊 Took up boxing to become Vedaa...

She Runs

Sharvari likes to run to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself running on the beach. She captioned the post, “Decided to seas the day!” Better Health says that running is very beneficial. “Regular running or jogging offers many health benefits.

Natasa Stankovic in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Wednesday Challenge"

Stankovic shares her go-to workout moves, from squats to lunges, cardio, Pilates, and strength training.

Entertainment India - March 2023

Natasa Stankovic isn’t just a content creator—she’s a fitness inspiration. Known for sharing intense workout sessions on Instagram, she keeps her followers motivated with creative exercise challenges and dynamic routines.

In her latest post, Stankovic teamed up with Aleksandar Illic for a lower body blast, pushing through variations of squats and lunges. Dressed in a sleek two-piece workout set, she captioned the session, “Wednesday challenge,” proving that fitness is all about consistency and fun.

So, how does she maintain her lean, strong physique? From strength training to Pilates, here’s a look at Stankovic’s go-to workout moves.

She Does Squats

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

She Does Cardio

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

She Does Pilates

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial. The Cleveland Clinic says, “One of the reasons Pilates is such a good workout is that it specifically focuses on building core strength.”

She Strength Trains

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health 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.”

Kim French in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Real Results" Workout

Learn how she sculpts her powerhouse physique with deadlifts, lunges, squats, and more.

Kim French is more than just a personal trainer—she’s a fitness coach who empowers thousands through her Believe App and Instagram workouts. Known for her structured, effective home training plans, she proves that you don’t need a gym full of heavy weights to build serious strength.

In a recent Instagram post, French shared a glimpse of her at-home training, reminding followers that smart training delivers "REAL results." Rocking a sleek two-piece workout set, she showcased some of her go-to exercises, emphasizing that with the right strategy, anyone can see progress.

So what’s in her routine? From deadlifts to hip thrusts, here’s how French sculpts her powerhouse physique.

She Does Deadlifts

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

She Does Lunges

Another exercise that French is seen doing in her Instagram post is lunges. NASM says that they are very beneficial. “The lunge is a versatile, simple and effective movement for lower body training. Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

She Does Squats

French is seen doing squats in her Instagram video. According to The Cleveland Clinic, squats are very beneficial. “Here’s a quick look at the many benefits of squats, also known as bodyweight squats or air squats: Works major muscle groups. Burns calories. Strengthens your core. Improves lower body strength. Enhances stability and balance. Betters your posture.”

She Does Hamstring Curls

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
