When it comes to fitness, Anusha mixes things up. “I do not have a routine honestly. I always start something, get super into it, then a shoot or my business gets too busy and I stop. But I love to rotate all the things I love and lucky all the people who train me are so patient with my sporadic approach,” she told Women Fitness.

2. She Does Gymnastics, Pilates, Tennis, and Ballet

“Gymnastics is my all-time fav, then Pilates, tennis, and ballet. I cannot go to a gym because I find it boring and I don’t actually know what to do there. I much prefer outdoor activities like hikes and running on the beach, love it!” she told Women Fitness about her workouts of choice.

3. She Prioritizes Mental Health

Anusha maintains that mental health is “so important” telling Women Fitness she is “so glad everyone is opening up more about it. I struggle to meditate, I am such a hyperactive person. My mental health is usually taken care of by really good music, writing down my thoughts and gratitude, countering the negative with positives, and the good things I learned from the experience and journey. Watching comedies and talking to my friends and family.”

4. She “Digs Deep”

Anusha is all about self-discovery, especially when it comes to recovering from toxic relationships. “Honestly dig deep and ask yourself why you thought you were in such a relationship. We always accept the love we think we deserve, so why did you think you deserved toxic? And when you dig deep and finally see your worth, don’t make excuses or blame anyone for why you stayed. Understand that you had to go through it to grow through it… and the best part is you made it and now you know who you are and what you want and deserve so much better, so go get it!” she told Women Fitness.

5. She Doesn’t Diet

“Honestly, I have never believed in dieting,” Anusha told Women Fitness. “I believe in being grateful for any food we receive and eat. I believe in enjoying our blessings and if you are good at your food, it will be good for you. Also, everything is in moderation, humans tend to be greedy, and we should eat when we are hungry. I used to have the habit of eating every time I watch something. Now I watch something every time I have to eat! My fav snack though is popcorn, peanut butter, jam sandwiches, apple, and chips together sounds weird but it’s yum!”

Esha Gupta, star of such films as Raaz 3D, Rustom and Baadshaho, is known for her beauty; she did win Most Photogenic at Femina Miss India, after all. As if you needed reminding, Esha just posted a flashback. In the photo, Gupta posed in a red bathing suit in a dimly lit room. She captioned the photo, “Throwback.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Esha Gupta 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 Practices Yoga

Gupta is a big fan of practicing yoga as a way of staying in shape. And yoga is a big part of her life, if you take a look at her Instagram page. Gupta has an Instagram story highlight on her page called “Fitness,” which is just herself doing different poses. She’s also posted several photos on Instagram of herself doing different yoga poses and practicing meditation. "Research has found evidence that treatment programs including regular meditation practice can help reduce depression; improve sleep, improve pain management, quit smoking, improve self-esteem, improve concentration, decrease menopausal symptoms, and reduce the severity of symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome," says the Cleveland Clinic.

2. She Boxes

Gupta loves to take boxing classes as a way to stay in shape. She posted this video on Instagram from the gym of herself working out with her trainer, with the Post Malone and The Weeknd song “One Right Now” as the background music. Gupta captioned the reel, “@boxeopath killing me softly, posty giving me feels. Thank you @adito_sen @thefitskeptic @knox.studio for making me prep for #invisblewoman. You guys are beast love you.”

3. She Snorkels

Gupta loves to go to the beach, and especially loves doing different physical activities in the water. One activity that she likes to do is go snorkeling. She posted this series of stunning photos on Instagram of herself snorkeling in the ocean at the Reethi Faru Resort. Gupta captioned the photo, “Being Dory,” referencing the Pixar character.

4. She’s Not Worried About Being Thin

When it comes to fitness, Gupta says that she isn’t concerned about losing weight. Instead, she focuses on being at a healthy weight for her body. Gupta wants everyone else to have this same mindset. “Being healthy is not about being thin,” she told Gulf News. “I remember seeing my young cousins in Dubai and them fretting about being a size four. But I told them, you can be any size but focus on being healthy and fit. I don’t want to have a daughter tomorrow who’s concerned that she isn’t thin. So, our focus should be on being healthy and fit. Lots of designers have banned size zero models and that’s wonderful. American model Ashley Graham has such a beautiful face and body. You look at her and you know that she works out too and remember just because you are smaller in dress size doesn’t mean you are healthier than me.”

5. She Eats Healthy

Gupta broke down her diet to Gulf News, where she revealed that she eats pretty healthy. Gupta says that she cuts out certain ingredients to help her eat better. “I come from a family of vegetarians. We are vegetarians not for religious purposes though. Although I am a Punjabi, I have lots of vegetables with collagen in them. I am gluten and dairy-intolerant, so I avoid it completely. When I eat gluten, my stomach hurts and I get acidic. Plus, I don’t believe in having milk products because I don’t think our body needs it. I also have carbs until 6pm. For dinner, I just have dal [lentils] or soups.”

Actress Ileana D’Cruz isn’t afraid to show off her figure on Instagram. She recently enjoyed a day at the beach. D’Cruz posted a stunning new selfie from the day on her story. In it, she sat in a chair wearing a yellow swimsuit. D’Cruz captioned the post, “Soaked up some lovely sunshine.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Ileana D’Cruz 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 Accepts Herself

D’Cruz opened up about her journey to self-love in an interview with IANS Life. She says that she has come a long way and is a lot more confident. "I have always had issues accepting my body the way it is. I have finally come to a place maybe where I am learning to like it how it is. I am respecting it a lot more and taking care of it a lot more. And I think it is showing, so I am happier right now."

2. She Focuses On Her Diet

For D’Cruz, eating healthy is important. “Earlier I used to spend so much time in the gym and did not focus as much on what I was eating,” she told IANS Life “I have realised that ninety percent of what you look like is your diet. So, you need to eat well. Invest in a good nutritionist if possible. Eat clean, eat well. That's what I try and do as much as possible now. I am very careful about what I am eating. Keep a check on how much sugar you consume daily."

3. She Doesn’t Cave To Pressure

D’Cruz tells IANS Life that she tries to not feel pressure to look a certain way. “People have a certain perception of how you are supposed to look. When you are portrayed on screen, you are portrayed in a glamorous way. Women are meant to look pretty and perfect. Now there is the paparazzi phase. When you get papped outside the gym or airport, you often look just normal. I try to put in a sense of reality on Instagram more than anything. I am a normal person and there are days when I don't look perfect and it's fine."

4. She Distracts Herself At The Gym

In an interview, D’Cruz shared one of her workout secrets. "I learnt a trick that everyone should use: when you are on the machine just start watching a show or a movie on your Ipad or tablet and you'll forget about what you are doing. That's what I used to do and it made it so much easier.”

5. She Swims

D’Cruz loves to swim to stay in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself underwater in a pool. Better Health states that swimming has a lot of health benefits. “Swimming is a good all-round activity because it: Keeps your heart rate up but takes some of the impact stress off your body. Builds endurance, muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness. Helps you maintain a healthy weight, healthy heart and lungs.”

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

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

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.”
