When doing press for Baywatch, Daddario was asked about how she got in shape for the film. She tells Muscle and Fitness that she picked up weight training. “I started working out with Patrick Murphy, this amazing trainer in Los Angeles. The weight training helped me feel stronger, especially in my back, which didn’t hurt as much. Women should look into it if they haven’t before.”

2. She Eats Healthy

Daddario makes sure to eat healthy. She shared some of her favorite meals and snacks with Muscle and Fitness. “Salads, fish, and rice, especially before a workout,” Daddario says. “I keep Lara bars in my purse. I also love avocados. I’ll cut one in half, put some olive oil and salt on it—that’s a healthy and filling snack.”

3. She’s Easy On Herself

At the beginning of 2022, Daddario opened up about her wellness to Forbes. She says that she wants to go easier on herself. “I am heading into the new year with a plan to be easier on myself and just have fun. I want to take full advantage of all the special moments this year, and cheers-ing to each one with only the best of the best dirty martinis. That was how I started the New Year: celebrating with a sexy, homemade Grey Goose martini. I bought these incredible vintage-inspired martini glasses from a little store in downtown LA and I love to serve my martinis in them, with an extra olive for good measure.”

4. She Has Support

In her Forbes interview, Daddario talked about the effect the pandemic had on her. She opened up about what it was like to work during this time. She says that she had a lot of supportive people around her. “I was lucky to have such wonderful people around me, we lifted each other up when times got tough. Sometimes we would just get out of the house and go for a drive, we would make little fun videos, we would cry to each other, listen to each other, and love each other. That and accepting that you're not always going to feel good and that's ok.”

5. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Daddario has amazing skin. She shared some of her biggest tips with Forbes. “I ALWAYS take my makeup off,” she says. “Maybe once a year, I will forget or fall asleep on the couch before I manage to get ready for bed properly. I love Vintner's Daughter Botanical Serum—it has saved my skin.”

1. She Doesn’t Let Herself Go Hungry

For Daddario, eating healthy does not mean starving herself. She tells People, “I eat when I’m hungry. I try to stay away from anything unnatural, but if you are trying to stay healthy and you get too hungry, it will only be more difficult to stay away from things like too much sugar if you don’t give yourself what you want sometimes. I’m focused on being healthy and not stressing or obsessing over food.”

2. She Doesn’t Deny Herself

Also for Daddario, eating healthy doesn’t mean denying herself her favorite junk foods. She tells Health, "I think you have to indulge or the stress of not being able to enjoy what you eat will detract from any benefits you’re getting from eating healthy. Life is really stressful without chocolate."

3. She Strength Trains

Daddario likes to do weight and strength training, and she started doing this while prepping for Baywatch. She tells Muscle & Fitness, “The weight training helped me feel stronger, especially in my back, which didn’t hurt as much. Women should look into it if they haven’t before.”

4. She Loves Yoga

Daddario also told Muscle & Fitness that she likes to practice yoga as a way of staying in shape. “I do a ton of yoga. I find it more than just physically beneficial, but also emotionally. It’s great to take an hour to just chill out, be away from your phone, and focus on positivity.”

5. She Eats Healthy

Daddario spilled some of her favorite healthy meals to Muscle & Fitness. She says that she likes to eat, “Salads, fish, and rice, especially before a workout. I keep Lara bars in my purse.

Beach hair, don’t care! In one of her latest social media posts, White Lotus beauty Alexandra Daddario shows off her famous figure in a bathing suit during a day on the shoreline. “Beach hair,” she captioned the Instagram photo, showing off her messy locks and looking naturally gorgeous. How does the actress prioritize her health and wellness? Here are 5 of her top health habits.


1. She Does Yoga

Alexandra is a devoted yogi. “Free your hips and your mind will follow,” she captioned a recent clip of her flow session. Why should you do yoga? “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood,” Harvard Health says. “People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”

2. She Gets Acupuncture Treatments

Alexandra was introduced to acupuncture at the age of 23, when she was suffering from a frozen shoulder. She swears by the Chinese medicine practice, claiming that it helps with sleep and stress levels. “I’m obsessed. I’ve had the needles everywhere—all over my body,” she told Women’s Health. “New place-not going to move again for at least a month,” she captioned a recent post of herself during a session.

3. She Skis

Alexandra loves hitting the slopes. Research has linked downhill skiing to a number of health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress and the occurrence of memory deficits declines.

4. She Exercises Outside

Alexandra makes sure to go on lots of adventures. “Take a vacation from your problems,” she captioned a post. She loves exploring new places, going on hikes and long walks. “I’ve found that my body heals faster and responds better if I’m in tune with myself and can be in nature,” she told Women’s Health.

5. Her Diet Is Simple and Healthy

Alexandra has a healthy approach to diet, starting her day with a cappuccino with almond or oat milk and yogurt and fruit or egg whites with spinach and toast. For lunch she eats a turkey sandwich with cheese, mustard, and mayo, and dinner is usually a bowl of pasta with veggies and olive oil.

Actress Alexandra Daddario, star of Baywatch (and The White Lotus), is back in swimwear and just posted a stunning new swimsuit photo on Instagram. In it, she and her sister modeled swimsuits from Aerie, paddleboarded, and walked on a dock at the lake. She captioned the post, “Things we learned today: paddle boarding is harder than it looks.” She added: "At least we got to be twins for a day." How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Alexandra Daddario 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 A Lot Of Different Skincare Routines

Daddario has flawless skin. And her routine isn’t just about using creams. She revealed to Vogue that she does a lot of unexpected things that care for her skin. “Part of my skin-care routine involves the ritual of going to yoga and destressing and meditating and going to acupuncture,” she explains. “I think it’s really important to take care of yourself and learn to love yourself and love your skin the way it is and keep yourself balanced. I think that all of that ends up helping every aspect of your health, including your skin.”

2. She Washes Her Face Twice A Day

Daddario tells Byrdie that she always remembers to wash her face and take her makeup off each day. She says that she aims to wash her face at least twice a day. “I just try to wash my face every morning and night. Sometimes I forget at night, but even just the whole thing of taking your makeup off before you go to sleep—you have to do things that make you feel good, or you get trapped in a cycle. If you start saying, ‘Oh, I left my makeup on three nights in a row,’ you’re going to start to get down on yourself. So it’s the little things that boost you up.”

3. She Loves Yoga & Meditation

Daddario tells Byrdie that she is a fan of yoga and meditation as a form of exercise and self-care. “I love yoga and meditation. It’s for everything. It's for your heart muscle. And it's for your soul, mind, and skin. I think taking time for yourself and meditating on gratitude makes a big difference in calming down your hormones and letting your skin be what it should be.”

4. She Goes To Bed Early

Daddario tells Byrdie that she has started to go to bed earlier. “I’m 35, so if I can be in bed at nine o'clock, I am delighted. But there was a time in my life where if no one had called me by nine to go out, I couldn't live with myself. So that’s part of your growing-up experience—you can’t just tell people to go to bed early and wake up for your yoga class.”

5. She Believes In Balance

Daddario tells People that she believes in balance when it comes to food. “I try to stay away from anything unnatural, but if you are trying to stay healthy and you get too hungry, it will only be more difficult to stay away from things like too much sugar if you don’t give yourself what you want sometimes. I’m focused on being healthy and not stressing or obsessing over food.”

On Instagram, Hewitt revealed the secret behind her impressive eyebrows. "I have been using this product and I'm noticing people bringing up my brows.

For Hewitt, fitness is all about variety. “I try to switch it up a bit,” she told OK! Magazine. “I’ve found that if every week I do something different it tricks my muscles into not getting used to doing any one thing. I’ve been doing pilates, I’ve been doing yoga, I’ve done just plain old walking. I wear 10 pound weights on my ankles while I’m working just so that as I’m moving during the day I’m constantly building muscle. It’s not great for your back but I’m doing it anyway. I do a booty workout thing that I just did for Shape, which was really fun. And I do Zumba. I have DVDs and I dance around like a crazy person in my house.”

She Builds Confidence

Hewitt tells People that she wants to build her confidence up. “I think I’m a work in progress,” she admits. “[But] I feel it’s so much better than [it was] a year-and-a-half ago, and I feel like in another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today.”

She Wants to be a Role Model

Over the past few years, Sydney Sweeney has become one of America’s sweethearts with celebrated roles in everything from hit HBO shows Euphoria and White Lotus to big-screen movies Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Anyone But You. In addition to her impressive acting ability, the star is a total bombshell and has one of the fittest figures in Hollywood. Here are the top 5 habits that help her stay fit at 27.

Water Skiing

Sydney has been water skiing since she was a toddler. “The moment I could walk, my mom put me on what’s called a U-board to learn how to ski,” she told Women’s Health. “I remember that whenever we would go by the docks of my grandma’s or my cousin’s house, I’d wave. I felt so cool because I could take off one hand. That’s my earliest memory of skiing, but I’ve been doing it as long as I can remember. It’s my favorite.” How does it help her achieve her amazing body? “It’s a lot of upper body strength, it’s balance, it’s core, it’s legs—you get tired really fast,” she says. “I see such a change in my body after an entire summer of [skiing]. My arms are stronger, more sculpted. My abs are rock solid. But I never look at it as a workout because it is so much fun,” she said.

Morning Workouts

Sydney mixes up her exercise routine, but likes to get workouts over with early in the day. “I like to work out in the morning, so I’ll either go for a run or I’ll go to Solidcore,” says Sydney. The high-intensity, low-impact Pilates-inspired workout “makes me feel so strong, but also elongated,” Sydney said about her sweat sessions. “I feel so good afterwards.”

Self-Care

Sydney engages in self-care activities. “I love to paint, and I love to read,” she said. “Those are the activities that are just for me.” One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years than those who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

She Walks and Hikes

One of the ways she treats her anxiety is by spending time outdoors with her dog, Tank. She takes him on walks or hikes. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, 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 reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

We are committed to bringing you researched, expert-driven content to help you make more informed decisions around food, health, and wellness. We know how important making choices about your overall health is, and we strive to provide you with the best information possible.

Mariana Morais is showing off her ab-fab figure – in a two-piece exercise set. In a new social media post, the fitness influencer flaunts her fantastic figure in a brown sports bra and leggings. “Self Progress & Development is not always linear. Sometimes we take steps back & that’s just a sign to course correct so we can leap forward. If 2024 wasn’t the year you expected, use it as an opportunity to learn, grow, & carry on. It’s you VS you - continue to try, focus on consistency > perfection & you will prevail 🤎 rooting for us all to strengthen our mind & bodies this year,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Strength Training

Mariana relies on old-school strength training to keep her body toned. “Training till failure instead of reps + taking my ab routine up a notch by incorporating weighted exercises,” she wrote about one of her workout tactics. “I can feel my muscles being challenged and am in tune with my movements.” According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

  • Develop strong bones
  • Manage your weight
  • Enhance your quality of life
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills

Prioritizing Digestion and Getting Blood Work Done

Other healthy habits? “Prioritizing digestion,” she writes in the same post. “Making sure I get enough fiber & starting off every morning with a juice cleanse. This has helped me feel so much better everyday.” She also gets regular blood work done. “So important to check your levels and know what’s going on in your body routinely! Don’t skip the doc apts, always better to be preventative.”

Hiking

Mariana enjoys hiking. “Elevation therapy,” she captioned a post from one of her fitness adventures. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance
  • Improving your heart health
  • Decreasing the risk of some respiratory issues

Pilates

Mariana does reformer Pilates. “POV: Stepping into the prettiest torture chamber,” she wrote across a video of herself at the studio. 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.

Emsculpt NEO

Mariana recently got an aesthetic body treatment, Emsculpt NEO. “I’ve heard all the rage about the benefits to spot reducing fat & toning muscle so I had to give it a try to target those pesky lower abs. It was a 10/10 & a great addition to my workout routine,” she wrote.
