Alysha Newman In Bathing Suit Is “Caught Between Seasons”

It’s officially March. Which means spring is around the corner. But it’s still technically winter, and there’s still snow on the ground. Not that model and Olympic athlete Alysha Newman minds. She posed outside in snowy Toronto, in a swimsuit, and posted the photo on Instagram. She captioned it, “Caught between seasons.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Alysha Newman 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 Eats Healthy

In an interview with Bodybuilding.com, Newman says that she prioritizes eating healthy. "It's extremely important to put the proper nutrients in your body, especially during long, hard, and critical practices," she says. “If you don't eat right, it's like putting cheap gas in your car. Yeah, it'll drive, but not as well as it should. Our bodies are the same way."

2. She Tries Different Things Out

Newman says to Bodybuilding.com that she has tried a lot of different things in her diet, to see what works for her. She says that she takes this approach instead of following a specific diet or a plan that someone else made for her. “I've experimented over the years to understand which foods work best for me personally. Everyone's body reacts differently to food so you can't just pull a pre-made diet off the shelf. You need to learn what's right for you."

3. She Switches Up Her Workouts

When Newman is training for an event or competition, she says that she does a lot of different types of exercises. "During the week I stick to a specific schedule," she explains to Bodybuilder.com. "I usually have two technical days comprised of pole vaulting, gymnastics, and plyometrics. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I run—anything from tempo runs to quick 60-meter sprints. I finish those running days with weight training.”

4. She Takes Time Off

While Newman’s training routine is intense, she does allow herself time off, a lot of it. She tells Bodybuilder.com that she takes a whole month off from training to rest her body and her mind. "The time I give myself in September is critical to my success in the following year," she says. "For those four weeks, I don't set foot on the track—I try not to even think about track and field. I treat myself to a complete physical and mental break, so I'll be eager to get back out there come October."

5. She Learns From Her Failures

Being an athlete, especially an Olympian, is difficult. You have to get used to not placing as well as you wanted. However, Newman tells The Brunching Mama that she doesn’t take her failures too hard, but as a way to learn. “This sounds so crazy but I fail everyday! It comes with what I do day in and out, but I am so thankful for it. I am constantly learning and growing because of my failures. Every time I experience it, I go back to the drawing board and keep moving towards. When plan A fails that means I’ve excessed my max potential that way so I turn to plan B and restart from there until I get it right.”

Noelle Foley wants to be at the beach. And her recent Instagram post proves it. In it, Foley, aka Mick Foley's daughter, posed in the ocean in Castaway Cay.

1. She’s Recovering From A Concussion

In 2019, Foley got a concussion. She opened up about her recovery on the Concussion Foundation website. “The back of my head is still extremely sensitive to touch. Even when I'm trying to go to sleep, it hurts to put my head on the pillow, so I have to readjust a lot to find a way for my head to be comfortable. Also, every time I've been in the car, I have not let my head even touch the headrest, just in case we hit a bump or hit the brakes a little too hard. I just cannot risk my head even being slightly hit. I'm scarred from headrests, literally.”

2. She Pushed Herself

Foley is pushing herself out of her comfort zone. She talked about this in this 2022 wrapped post on her Instagram. “I stepped out of my comfort zone and got out of the house more… For a while I wouldn’t leave my house for weeks at a time, so this was a big accomplishment for me. This year (like the past few) was very difficult, uncomfortable, painful, stressful, and emotional, but I tried to keep a smile through it all (most of the time) and for that, I am very proud of myself.”

3. She Spends Time In the Water

As you can see from her recent Instagram post, Foley loves to spend time in the water. She captioned the photo, “I’ve seen far too many insides of doctors offices, and way too little sunshine… So I think it's time to get some vitamin D.” Foley also shared this video of herself in a pool, captioning it, “Sweet dreams are made of these… Baths. Still dreaming about this awesome experience at @aireancientbaths_us.”

4. She Kayaks

Swimming isn’t the only thing Foley likes to do at the beach. She also loves to go kayaking. While on a trip to San Diego, Foley posted this highlight video on Instagram. In it, she is seen kayaking at the beach. She captioned it, “I knew it looked awesome from pictures online, but seeing it in person was on a whole nother level.”

5. She Does Yoga

Foley likes to practice yoga as a way to stay in shape. While on a trip to Dallas, she made sure to do a yoga session. She shared these photos from the day on Instagram. Foley captioned the post, “Getting my inner Yogi on over at @thompsonhoteldallas’ outdoor fitness lawn. I could stay up here all day. The gym and fitness lawn are so nice here at the Thompson that it actually makes me want to work out.”

On the most recent season of Young & Pregnant, Sessler opened up about an abortion. She talked to HollywoodLife about her decision to do so. “I try to really be vulnerable and raw because I think people, with abortion, think you’re just being irresponsible,” she says. “But there are so many long-term effects that come with [having a baby], and people don’t really talk about that. No one’s just out getting an abortion for birth control. No one’s doing that. They can be very traumatic, and this season, you’re definitely going to see some of my mental health struggles that stem from the decision I made. There’s a lot of guilt from it.”

2. She Swims With Her Kids

Exposure to the sun can provide a number of health benefits. Here are a few:

1. Vitamin D production: The sun's ultraviolet B (UVB) rays can help your body produce vitamin D, which is essential for bone health and helps your body absorb calcium.
2. Improved mood: Exposure to sunlight has been shown to improve mood and reduce symptoms of depression.
3. Improved sleep: Sunlight helps regulate your body's natural sleep-wake cycle, or circadian rhythm, which can improve your sleep quality.
4. Improved immune system function: Sunlight exposure can help improve the function of your immune system.
5. Lower blood pressure: Some research suggests that sunlight exposure may help lower blood pressure.

It's important to note that it's possible to get too much sun, which can lead to sunburn and increase the risk of skin cancer. It's important to protect your skin from the sun's harmful rays by wearing sunscreen, a hat, and protective clothing, and seeking shade when the sun is at its strongest.

5. She Loves Her Family So Much

Sessler posts a ton of family photos. Having strong family connections can have numerous health benefits. Some of the potential benefits of having strong family connections include:

1. Improved mental health: Strong family connections can provide emotional support and reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation, which can improve mental health and well-being.
2. Better physical health: Studies have shown that people with strong family connections tend to have better physical health outcomes, such as lower rates of chronic conditions and longer lifespan.
3. Increased resilience: Having strong family connections can provide a sense of security and belonging, which can help individuals cope with life's challenges and be more resilient.
4. Higher quality of life: People with strong family connections tend to report higher levels of overall satisfaction with life and a greater sense of purpose.
5. Greater support during times of crisis: In times of crisis, such as illness or loss, strong family connections can provide a sense of support and help individuals navigate difficult times.

It's important to note that the strength of family connections can vary, and it's not uncommon for family relationships to have ups and downs. Building and maintaining strong family connections can take time and effort, but it can be a rewarding and enriching experience that can have numerous benefits for your overall health and well-being.

Sophie Nélisse wowed us all on the Showtime series Yellowjackets, playing young Shauna, the teenage survivor of a plane crash with her fellow high school soccer players who grows up locked into a mystery that involves cannibalism, murder and betrayal. How did the 24-year-old Canadian land such a role, and how does she stay mentally fit? (One way is to take a vacation after all the hard work; she just shared photos of herself in a swimsuit in her recent “Mexico roll” photo dump.) Read on to see 5 ways Sophie Nélisse approaches life and work 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 “Never Satisfied” With Her Work and “Shocked” at all the Love

“I'm quite the pessimist in general,” she told Dead Talk Live when asked about whether or not she thought Yellowjackets would get a second season. (It has.) “Like I'm never satisfied with any of the work that I do. So I was quite skeptical. But the show runners and everyone that was working on the project, they kept telling us towards the end of the shoot, how amazing the first episodes were and how the response to it was great. And they were very confident that the show would get the amount of love and respect that it got. I was skeptical. But it's hard to say when you're in it, when you're shooting it, there's always little things that you see that other people don't….I mean, I'm still kind of shocked at the amount of love we've been getting.”

2. This is Why the Show Broke Out So Fast, She Thinks

Why did Yellowjackets become such an immediate smash? “I think it's because it's mostly a bunch of women and that's something we're not used to seeing,” she told Dead Talk Live. “We're used to seeing groups of people and, and we know that men are strong and capable of such cruelty and aggressivity. And that's not expected of women. We're not used to seeing women's darker side and flaws. And I think that that's what makes the show so unique and, to see how strong women are together, when we work as a team and as a group were kind of undefeatable and I think that's what's so amazing about the show.”

3. This is How She Approached Playing a Younger Version of a Well-Known Actress

Playing a young Melanie Lynskey, “For me, it wasn't that difficult because if you look at it from a character point of view, my character, when she's set in the wilderness or at any time, actually doesn't know what's gonna happen ahead of her,” she told Dead Talk News. “So I try not to let anything that's written of my older self affect my character, the way I play things, because Shauna doesn't know what events are about to happen. She doesn't know if she's gonna kill someone. She doesn't know what's to come. So I kind of try to just take it day by day. Obviously now that I've seen the first season and, and seen how Melanie plays Shauna, there are little things that I've picked up on, like the way she clenches her lips together sometimes, or the way she just plays certain lines, the dark humor that she brings to it. Those are definitely things that I'm gonna try to incorporate in the second season, if I have a chance.”

4. She Underwent a Physical Transformation

To play a young Shauna, “I had to go through obviously some physical changes because I'm blonde with blue eyes and in the show I've” got brown hair “with brown eyes. And I also noticed when we first started talking that we have quite a different like pitch in her voice, like she speaks way higher and I speak quite lower. So we kind of had to adjust to sort of meet in the middle and kind of, sort of sound the same.”

5. Here’s Why She Became an Actor

“I kind of fell into acting when I was young because my brother wanted to become an actor,” she said at the Toronto International Film Festival way back in 2016. “And at the time I was doing gymnastics, so I kind of just started acting a bit to get money, to pay for the travel expenses. And recently I was sitting down because I needed to find what I needed to study after I finished high school and I was looking at all these different jobs and I was like, nothing is as interesting as like acting. And I was like, there's nothing that fits with my personality as much as acting. I was like, being an actress: It makes me travel. It makes me meet different people every day. And the kind of the routine of like a job that you do the same thing every day, that really bugs me. And with acting, I don't have that. It's always something different and something new. And so I discovered that I really wanted to be an actress, only like three months ago.”
