Journalist, co-host, and author, Gayle King, rocks a swimsuit. “Hard to top @si_swimsuit cover & photo shoot so favorite niece @mknzschwb decided she would duplicate my poses on her own! But we did take at least one new picture in our @swimzip swimsuits 👙👙👙,” she said on a series of photos on Instagram. Here’s how Gayle stays healthy and prioritizes her wellness.


She's Thankful

She spent her Thanksgiving with her family, soaking up the sunshine, swimming, playing pickleball, and appreciating all the quality time. “Family Thanksgiving tradition continues—and I loved every minute! Thank you @rwmayakoba who delivered on every level! Food, fun, and fantastic staff and accommodations. Sending my deposit for next year ☀️🌊⛱️,” she said on Instagram on a series of photos.

She Faces Her Fears

She challenges her fears, facing them head on. “Did you know that the iconic 1932 photo depicting 11 ironworkers lunching on a steel beam, 69 stories high, was taken at Rockefeller Plaza? Now you can recreate the iconic photo by buckling up and going on The Beam, a replica that will ascend you above @topoftherocknyc. If @gayleking can do it, so can you,” re-shared on Instagram, originally posted on @oprahdaily.

Play With Her Grandson

She gets right in the obstacle course, spending time and playing with her grandson. “Another example of the glamorous life! What is happening here? … swipe left to understand …all I can say is @danniirodgers I know exactly how you feel! Hanging with favorite grandson Luca as he lives his best life at his favorite toddler gym,” she said on Instagram as she crawled through the gym with him.

She Travels

She enjoys traveling the world, making memories in new places. “The main goal of our visit to Japan was to see cherry blossoms in full bloom. But as our luck would have it, they haven’t been this late in over ten years. In the beginning of the trip we only saw cherry blossoms in vases at hotels or restaurants....but on the last day we scored!🌸🌸🌸,” she said on Instagram.

She Rests

She gets a good night's sleep. “Anytime I get over 8 hours I'm doing the hula and that happened !... Swipe left this weeks range TWO HOURS plus..to...8 hours.... This is NOT healthy so I'm asking how much sleep do you get,” she asked on Instagram, on pictures showing her sleep score. According to the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, getting enough sleep can help “reduce stress, improve your mood, and get along better with people. Think more clearly, form long-term memories, and do better in school and at work. Make good decisions and avoid injuries,” and more.

Model Kelly Gale has devoted her life to healthy living and the results are on display in a new swimsuit photo, which fans are calling “so hot.” She’s done several revealing photoshoots for different brands. Gale posted some highlights from a recent shoot on Instagram. In it, she posed in a multicolored bathing suit, sunglasses, a black jacket, and ankle-high boots. Gale walked on an airplane runway in the shoot. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Kelly Gale 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 Focuses On Her Goals

Gale revealed some of her wellness secrets to Pop-Up Workouts. One thing she revealed was her motivations for staying in shape. “Focusing on having my goals in my mind all the time, knowing why I'm here, why I'm doing it,” Gale said. “And just that makes me push harder. It keeps you in great shape.” Certified professional trainer Alena Beskur “says beginners most often give up on their exercise-related goals because they grow frustrated when they don’t see results quickly. Or they try to do too much too fast and burn out,” according to the Cleveland Clinic. “Exercise is not magic — it’s hard work that takes effort and time,” she says. So it’s important to approach your fitness goals with a sense of patience and persistence.

2. She Walks

Premiere of "The Suicide Squad" at The Landmark Westwood on August 02, 2021 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic)Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic

Gale makes sure to get her steps in. She tells Pop-Up Workouts that she likes to walk a lot. “Wherever I'm going, I make sure I walk,” she says. “That kind of makes me refreshed.” “Walking wards off heart disease, brings up the heart rate, lowers blood pressure and strengthens the heart. Post-menopausal women who walk just one to two miles a day can lower their blood pressure by nearly 11 points in 24 weeks. Women who walk 30 minutes a day can reduce their risk of stroke by 20%, and by 40% when they stepped up the pace, according to researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston,” sats the Arthritis Foundation.

3. She Eats Healthy Snacks

Gale makes sure to eat a healthy diet. And that extends to her favorite snacks. She describes her favorite snacks to Pop Up Workouts, saying that she loves,“Turkey breast, some raw chocolate, and some berries.”

4. She Does What She Wants

In an interview with Grazia, Gale spilled her main wellness philosophy. “Just do what feels good. That's what I try to do. I try to take care of myself and just not think about what other people are doing. Just like drink lots of water, get enough sleep and be happy.”

5. She Goes Makeup Free On Off Days

Being a model, Gale has to put makeup on for jobs and shoots. However, she tells Grazia that she goes makeup free when she’s not working. She says that this helps her skin. “So when I'm working, I have to wear makeup. But what I do is when I'm off duty, I don't wear any makeup at all.”

Sarah Nicole Landry has become one of the biggest names on Instagram. She’s gained fans for her honest revelations about weight, relationships, and health. Landry has never been afraid to post stunning, revealing photos on Instagram. She just posted a new set of photos of herself posing in a pink bathing suit. In the caption, Landry wrote a poem about her body:


"An ode.

One that doesn’t always need words

Yet is writing an entire poem.

Every stripe, a strike of the pen

Every fold, a turn of the page.

The birthplace of memories.

Belly,

You are a work of unwritten art."

Read on to see 5 ways Sarah Nicole Landry 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 Gives Herself Grace

In an interview with Jillian Harris, Landry was asked what piece of advice she would give to someone struggling with their body image. Landry answered, “To give themselves grace and remember they are not the problem or something to fix, but a person who has been saturated with messages of not being enough. Even on the worst of days, that we all deserve to show up and live our lives and make memories in them!

2. She Follows Positive Accounts

Create & Cultivate 100 Launch PartyStefanie Keenan/Getty Images

One way Landry has developed her sense of body positivity is by following other body positive accounts. She tells Jillian Harris, “A big part of this has been following folks who echo positive messages about our relationships with food. That there is no moral value on food, no good, no bad, no “guilt-free” or “cheat days”. There is a spectrum of nutrient density, but not a moral value. Something that’s really helped me over the years.”

3. She Shows Up For Herself

Landry tells Jillian Harris that she is always showing up for herself, and wants others to do the same. “I think my goal would be to show more that we don’t have to FEEL confident or FEEL love for our bodies but SHOW UP confidently and SHOW UP in love. That doesn’t have to be rocking a bikini but rocking whatever makes you not focus on your body so you can focus on the life around you.”

4. She’s All About The Love

Landry posted this set of photos on Instagram, where she talked about diet culture, and how it has caused people to hate their bodies. Landry says that her reaction is to love her body, at all costs. “Hate is a powerful thing. But to LOVE in the face of it… Well that’s just a whole other kind of powerful.”

5. She Didn’t Feel Pressure To Lose Weight

Landry posted this set of postpartum photos on Instagram, and talked about how she is avoiding the pressure of getting back to her “pre-baby body.” She writes, “It’s ok if you look like you gave birth when you did. And honestly, if it’s going to widely accepted that there can be dad bods for men who aren’t fathers, then this statement can also be true: It’s also ok if you look like you gave birth when you *didn’t*.”

Gayle King is sharing her annual swimsuit photo with her niece! In a new social media post, the media personality shows off her fabulously fit at 68 body in a variety of bathing suits while vacationing in Cancun at the Rosewood Mayakoba resort. “Back by popular demand: Our annual Thanksgiving swimsuit photo shoot with fav niece,” she captioned the photo, tagging her niece Mekenzye. “It all started as a joke in 2017 where I was making fun of Mekenzye and now it’s turned into a thing….but full disclosure everybody looks good taking a picture at @rwmayakoba in Cancun! Highly recommend.” How does Oprah’s BFF—and star of CNN's new series King Charles—approach health and fitness? Celebwell rounded up her top lifestyle habits.


1. Exercise

Gayle once told Oprah that she works out for an hour five to six days a week. She does a minimum of 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of strength training either with resistance bands or free weights, doing upper body one and lower the next. On weekends she will do both. She also does ab exercises three to four days a week.

2. Weight Training

New,York,,Ny,-,October,28:,Gayle,King,Attends,AppleShutterstock

Gayle stresses the importance of lifting weights. "Before I was doing cardio, cardio, cardio," Gayle told Oprah. "And I wasn't losing weight the way I'm losing now. Jim said to me that building up muscle really does burn calories faster. For me, that's been the case."

3. Healthy Eating But No Restrictions

New,York,,Ny,-,October,16:,Gayle,King,Attends,HearstísShutterstock

“I deny myself nothing," Gayle says about her relaxed approach to diet. "Some people don't eat pasta or bread or sweets ever. I love those foods too much. So for the most part, I eat healthy, but if I go to a party or on vacation, I'm going to enjoy it; then I work extra hard to get back to where I was." She also abides by the easy come easy go belief. "I've learned that when you gain weight quickly," she says, "you can lose it quickly."

4. Soup Fasts

Gayle has done soup cleanses in the past. “I went from 172.2 pounds down to 165 pounds. Update! Just completed 5 day soup fast & the results are in! Trying to get into mustard yellow dress for Elex night coverage TONITE ..praying to sweet black baby Jesus it now fits, that you VOTE, & that there is PEACE ... ps plz withhold all negative comments about my jacked up feet I’m well aware they are a hot mess but not yet comfortable in a covid environment going to nail salon... bigger issues to worry about ....” she captioned a 2020 post.

5. Weight Watchers

In 2016 King dropped nearly 28 pounds by following the Weight Watchers program, going from 184.5 pounds to 156.8 pounds. “‘It’s going down’ — to quote Kesha — ‘I’m yelling timber,’” she wrote via Instagram at the time, sharing a photo of her feet on a scale. “October 7, 163.6 and now 160.6. Went up for a hot minute, now back on track at Weight Watchers counting the points!”

Several years ago Gayle revealed to Oprah that she works out for an hour five to six days a week: 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of strength training either with resistance bands or free weights. She splits up her day, doing upper body one and lower the next. On weekends she will do both. She also does ab exercises 3 to 4 days a week.

2. She Stresses the Importance of Weight Training

After dopping 20 pounds with the help of her trainer, Gayle revealed some of his best advice: Maintenance is just as much work as, if not more than, losing the weight. "I'd never heard that before," she told Oprah.

4. She Doesn’t Deprive Herself

Her second piece of advice? “I deny myself nothing," she says. "Some people don't eat pasta or bread or sweets ever. I love those foods too much. So for the most part, I eat healthy, but if I go to a party or on vacation, I'm going to enjoy it; then I work extra hard to get back to where I was." And, she believes, easy come easy go and vice versa. "I've learned that when you gain weight quickly," she says, "you can lose it quickly."

5. She Does Soup Fasts

If Gayle has to lose weight fast she might go on a soup cleanse. “I went from 172.2 pounds down to 165 pounds. Update! Just completed 5 day soup fast & the results are in! Trying to get into mustard yellow dress for Elex night coverage TONITE ..praying to sweet black baby Jesus it now fits, that you VOTE, & that there is PEACE ... ps plz withhold all negative comments about my jacked up feet I’m well aware they are a hot mess but not yet comfortable in a covid environment going to nail salon... bigger issues to worry about ....” she captioned a 2020 post.

6. She Does Weight Watchers

In 2016, King, who has been open about her weight struggles, revealed that she dropped nearly 28 pounds by following the Weight Watchers program, going from 184.5 pounds to 156.8 pounds. “‘It’s going down’ — to quote Kesha — ‘I’m yelling timber,’” she wrote via Instagram at the time, sharing a photo of her feet on a scale. “October 7, 163.6 and now 160.6. Went up for a hot minute, now back on track at Weight Watchers counting the points!”

7. She Finds Joy in Movement

“I try to figure out a way to get some kind of exercise. I’ve been reading this book about the joy of movement, and I do think there’s something to that,” Gayle told Elle. “I’m not saying I like working out. I’m just saying I do it. I do the treadmill, I do the elliptical and I do weights. But I’m not going to sit here and say, ‘Oh, my God, I love it.’”

Bianca Bustamante is revving up her engine in 2025 – in her workout gear. In a new social media post, the racecar driver reveals she is taking “the next major step” in her physical journey as a race driver “and I’ve set the target high!” she says in a new Instagram post, filled with video clips of herself lifting heavy weights at the gym. “Never been more motivated in my life, it’s not physically easy for a girl in this sport, but I’m super excited to take on this new challenge and the next big step on my racing journey,” she added. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here are her top lifestyle tips.

Lifting Weights

Bianca spends hours at the gym where she focuses on strength training along with endurance, cardio, reaction time, and reflexes. “You know, to be a driver, it’s a complete package. It takes strength. It takes mental fortitude. It takes reflexes, smart thinking, and survival skills,” she told MEGA Active. “Sometimes it's for the body, sometimes it's for the mind. Nothing more peaceful than early sessions,” she captioned an Instagram post of one of her sessions.

Double Down On Training

In her recent post, Bianca reveals that she working extra hard at the gym. “I’ve been working hard over the years to build a solid foundation, but in 2025, I’ll be working with @j_w_90 and I’m doubling down on my training. Increasing to two workouts a day not just on lifts but aerobic endurance, as well as a better focus on nutrition and rest, in order to raise the bar to compete in the higher formulas,” she said.

Fueling Your Body With Protein

Bianca makes sure to eat enough protein in order to build more muscle and stay as lean as possible to meet the weight requirement. “It’s been a really cool journey seeing my body develop and transform into this whole different person I never knew I could become,” she said. In her new post she added that she is meal prepping. “I’m soooo all in that im even learning how to cook & meal prep better than ever before,” she writes.

Taking Cold Plunges

As for recovery, cold plunging is part of Bianca’s training regime. Limited research supports the benefits of cold plunges, which may include easing sore muscles, bringing body temperature down, increasing focus, improving sleep, and decreasing inflammation, per the Cleveland Clinic. However, a 2021 study found that cold water immersion therapy promotes post-sport recovery.

Working On Self-Esteem

Positive self-talk is also important. “Of course, I put a lot of pressure on myself, but in the end, I always tell myself that as long as I give my best and I learn from it, any mistake I make is valid,” Bianca explained. “I always try to repeat that to myself that I am valid. I’m here for a reason and there’s nothing I would rather do than be here.”

Brenda Perlaza is flaunting her fantastic figure in a tiny bikini. In a new social media post the influencer, who calls herself La Barbie Negra, looks flawless as she poses on the beach in a neon yellow swimsuit. “#viral,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Wow Wow,” one of her followers commented, while several others added fire emojis. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Jogging

Brenda enjoys jogging. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.

Walking Her Dog

She also takes her dog on long walks. 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.

Dancing

You can also find Brenda dancing to burn calories. Dancing is an excellent workout for many reasons. It builds strength and promotes flexibility, 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 or die from heart disease than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues

Swimming

Brenda spends a lot of time in her swimsuit so it isn’t surprising she loves to swim. According to the CDC, swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, multiple studies support the mental health benefits of swimming.

Hydration

Finally, Brenda hydrates, especially after a long workout or sun exposure. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is essential for various reasons. Water helps eliminate waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature regular, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

Model and influencer Claudia Romani isn’t just making waves with her glamorous beachside posts—she’s living the healthy lifestyle to match. Recently, Romani shared a video on Instagram, taking a refreshing dip in the pool with the caption, “Kisses from the 305.” But her fitness routine goes beyond just swimming. From her plant-based diet to her dedication to animal welfare, Romani’s habits reflect a balanced approach to wellness that keeps her looking and feeling her best. Here are the five key ways Claudia Romani stays in shape while living life to the fullest.

She Swims

As you can see from her Instagram post, Romani likes to go to the beach. Naturally, she likes to swim to keep herself in shape. Romani shared this video on Instagram of herself taking a dip in a pool. She captioned it, “Kisses from the 305.” According to The Cleveland Clinic, swimming has a lot of health benefits. “Like other forms of cardio, swimming can help you burn calories and lose weight. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a 154-pound person who swims slow freestyle laps for 30 minutes burns 255 calories. But that amount varies depending on your weight, speed and stroke.”

She's Vegan

Romani is open about following a vegan diet. She shares a lot of posts on her Instagram story highlights of herself enjoying vegan foods. The American College of Lifestyle Medicine states that being vegan has a lot of health benefits. “Overall, nutrition from plant-based diets is typically of higher quality than omnivorous diets, as assessed by the Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI).28 A whole food plant-based (WFPB) diet is one made up of predominantly unprocessed fruits, vegetables, whole grains legumes, nuts and seeds, and excludes animal foods, with certain selective supplementation of vitamins B12. Sometimes D. Intentionally planned, WFPB diets provide sufficient nutrient intakes for all stages of life and can be therapeutic for chronic disease and overall health and healing.29 The plant-based dietary pattern protects against overconsumption of nutrients that lead to obesity and disease,30 particularly animal protein, saturated fat,31 trans-fats, cholesterol simple sugars,32 and sodium.33, 34”

She Loves Salads

A vegan food that Romani enjoys is salad. She shared this Instagram story of herself enjoying a vegan cobb salad. Bupa states that salad is very beneficial. “Salads can contain several foods which are prebiotics. These are foods which act as fuel for healthy bacteria. It also provides a type of indigestible fibre, which can be beneficial for your gut health. Foods to consider including in your salad can be onions, garlic, kale, carrots, and asparagus.”

She Works Out Consistently

Romani makes sure to work out on a regular basis. She shares a lot of Instagram stories in her highlights of herself at the gym. The Mayo Clinic says that regular exercise is extremely important. “Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help you keep off lost weight.

Romani has her own charity, Help Miami Cats. She talked about how she started this in the caption of this Instagram post. “❤️ Guys!!!! I have always loved cats and had many growing up. When I moved to Miami Beach I met a great calico named Chacha and learnt that cats were brought to the city by Mayor Lummus … against rodents. Cats rely on volunteers for their food and water and there’s a huge amount of them. There’s a city program to Spay and neuter with the wonderful @sobecats ladies and the feeding is made official by a City Sanctioned badge, yet new cats keep getting dumped daily sadly and there’s a never ending amount of work, emergencies and so on. I was on a feeding rotation but during the pandemic I was left alone caring for so many as people left town or couldn’t afford feeding anymore …I decided to start my own non profit @helpmiamicats . We feed close to 200 and when Batman got paralyzed took him and other special needs cats under my care … @stevensachs69 with the cat room and the amazing people involved devote their lives to these special souls … My life has changed a lot too … way less spare time, way more sweat and tears and lost the person I had by my side who had sadly other priorities … yet gained so much love from these lovely creatures !!! If you can please get involved in any way … follow @helpmiamicats , share, volunteer, adopt … donate … Only together we can make their world a better place !!! And yes … just me feeding the kitties and talking to them … 🤷🏻♀️👀😆❤️🙌”
