Ashley Tisdale, star of the High School Musical films, holds a place in the heart of a certain demographic who grew up admiring her, so it’s lovely to see her looking happy and relaxed on the beach in a swimsuit photo she shared. “Weekend is lookin chill,” she captioned it. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Ashley Tisdale 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 Cares About Wellness

Tisdale launched her own wellness website, Frenshe. Why? “The last couple of years, I've been very open about my mental health journey with my album Symptoms and finally was able to be vulnerable with my fans. Because even though I have social media, I've always kept a very separate private life and sharing almost everything at the same time,” she told The Thirty. “Over the last couple of years, with my anxiety and” taking over her make-up brand, which proved too much her health—“it led me to this moment, which was creating Frenshe, the health-and-wellness blog of talking about my journey. I'm someone who always likes to dig deeper into health.”

2. She Tries to Balance Her Priorities

“I have started to really turn my house into a nontoxic household. And I believe there's a balance still. I'm not someone who's going to be completely pushing a nontoxic brand, but I do believe in a nontoxic kitchen and household items. I think that life is about balance and moderation and not just going one way or the other. I really wanted to create something that was about balance, that was relatable, and that was affordable, to be honest. Because it can get very expensivem,” she told The Thirty.

3. She Limits Sensitivities

“A lot of people always ask me about my skin and how I have such clear skin. I did a post one time on my Instagram saying I'm dairy-free, and so obviously everyone thought just cut out dairy. But that is not what I was really trying to explain. It's more about, to me, dairy is a food sensitivity. And by limiting my food sensitivities in my body, it causes less inflammation. It's just learning about your body and what you're sensitive to and limiting those things. It's hard to take things out of your diet for sure. And it's not an easy task. I think about talking about all of those things, like food sensitivities and how it can affect gut issues,” she told The Thirty.

4. She Had Rhinoplasty

“As most of you might know, I had rhinoplasty 15 years ago. At the time, it didn’t feel like THAT big of a deal to me because the decision was based on serious health issues I was having. To be clear, it was not about changing my appearance. After several doctor’s visits about my health issues, they also suggested shaving my 'bump' down. I was young and didn’t put much thought into it, so I decided, why not? It wasn’t a big deal to me nor was it like I was dreaming of the day I’d get a nose job. On the other hand, I have ZERO judgment towards anyone who does look forward to that day—your body, your choice,” she shared on her website.

5. She Recommends Probiotics

“By now, I’m sure you know our intestines are full of healthy bacteria that helps digestion. Luckily there are plenty of foods you can get to balance out your gut flora! Yogurt is the most common, but if you’re trying to avoid dairy, you can try a vegan alternative or fermented foods such as sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir, kombucha, and even over-the-counter supplements. Check the packaging for ‘probiotics’ or ‘live and active cultures’ to ensure you’re getting what you need!” she wrote.

Ashley Tisdale, star of High School Musical and Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Candance Against the Universe, is enjoying a pool day. And she made sure to get some gorgeous photos for Instagram. In her newest post, Tisdale posed in a black strapless bathing suit and a skirt. She captioned the post, “It’s always sunny somewhere.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Ashley Tisdale 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 Believes In Inner Confidence

One of Tisdale’s biggest wellness secrets is having confidence in herself. She says that she feels better and more beautiful when she’s confident. “For me, it’s all about feeling good,” she tells People. “I have a makeup line, Illuminate by Ashley Tisdale, and yes it’s easy to put makeup on and go out, but true confidence comes from within.”

2. She Treats Her Diet Like Her Skin

Tisdale tells People that her wellness secrets are the same as her beauty secrets. “Treat your body how you treat your skin and you will always feel good,” she explained. Tisdale says that her biggest tips are, “Drinking plenty of water and sleep.” "These two environmental factors can impact your quality and quantity of sleep. Darkness causes your brain to release melatonin for a calming, sleepy effect. As a result, it's important to minimize your exposure to light before bedtime. Even the light from your computer, TV or other devices might make it more difficult for you to fall asleep. Ban these devices from your bedroom, and create a dark space by using blackout shades or an eye mask. Noise also can interfere with your ability to sleep. Try using a fan or a noise machine to block out unwanted noises," says the Mayo Clinic.

3. She Found Out Her Food Sensitivities

Tisdale told People that she decided to get tested for certain food sensitivities. She says that she then made a lot of changes to her diet afterwards. “I recently found out what my food sensitivities are, so I had to cut dairy out and certain other foods that weren’t good for me,” she explains. “Also, as much as I love carbs I cut them down a lot. I allow myself to have them once a week.”

4. She Walks A Lot

After having her first child, Tisdale revealed on her Instagram stories that she has started walking a lot more. She says that this helps manage her stress, and to lose weight. “It's all about moving, finding ways of walking," she writes. "Taking the dogs out with the baby for a stroll, taking meeting while walking versus sitting. It's honestly what has helped my mental health as well. Having the extra energy from anxiety, just taking a walk and putting on a walking meditation always makes me feel better."

5. She Keeps Her Heart Rate Low

Tisdale works with celebrity trainer, Harley Pasternak, to help herself stay in shape. Pasternak told Shape Magazine that he aims to keep Tisdale’s heart rate low during sessions. “Because the heart rate doesn't get too high, there is a lower rate of perceived exertion," he explains. "In other words, the workout doesn't feel too hard, even though it's getting everything done we need to get done. We can even carry on a conversation the whole time while her butt and hips and arms get totally demolished — in a good way."

1. She Claims Walking Is a Game-Changing Workout

Ashley revealed that walking was the workout responsible for making her feel like herself again after welcoming her first child. "Getting back with my trainer @harleypasternak has changed my body tremendously and honestly it's all about getting your steps in," she said in an Instagram Story. "His method isn't hard and my body isn't left feeling like I tortured it. I can't believe what my body has gone through over the last year and a half. I'm so grateful for it and honestly can't believe how strong I feel." Wearing a Fitbit, she aims for 14,000 steps a day. "All I do is walk lol but it's effective," she said. "I'm only sharing this because after months of working hard and trying everything, these small changes in the last three weeks is what have done the most," she continued. "It's the difference of how I feel. It's all about moving, finding ways of walking. Taking the dogs out with the baby for a stroll, taking meetings while walking vs. sitting." She also claims it is good for her mental health. "It's honestly what has helped my mental health as well," she added. "Having the extra energy from anxiety, just taking a walk and putting on a walking meditation always makes me feel better."

2. She Focuses on Low Impact Workouts

Tisdale, who has "borderline thyroid disease," adds that low impact workouts help her condition, in addition to diet. "I eliminate gluten (sometimes 😛), dairy and do everything I can to not have to rely on medication but a lot of it is not creating stress on the body and even though working out is great, the different methods can create more stress and do more damage," she said. "So using @harleypasternak technique helps me reach my goals but not over exert myself."

3. She Mixes Up Her Workout

In addition to training with Pasternak, Ashley also stays fit through a variety of other workouts. "I've worked my butt off. Whether it's hiking, Pilates, riding on my Peloton,” she wrote on Frenche.

4. Her Diet Is Balanced and Healthy

She also revealed on Frenche that diet is a big part of the equation. “While I haven’t mastered his recipes yet, I’m excited to dive deeper into them. He always says, ‘you can’t out-walk a bad diet,’ and I’m trying to live by that too,” she said about Pasternak’s plan. “In the past, I practiced yo-yo dieting that wasn’t sustainable instead of focusing on making lifestyle changes. That’s ultimately the opposite of Harley’s methods. He emphasizes the importance of fueling the body with food rather than depriving it of certain foods. My entire point is that while it’s easy to get caught up in wanting fast results from your diet and exercise regimen, it’s not a healthy mindset to have. It’s not a race; it’s a lifestyle, so I’m sure the more I do it, the better I’ll get at it.”

5. She Claims Ditching Dairy Is Responsible for Her Glow

“Skin never looked so good,” Ashley said in an Instagram video. “I would love to say it’s just the products I use but I’ve been dairy free for 5 years and I swear it changed everything with my skin. I barely break out,” she added. “I know it’s hard to give up something but when you do, after awhile, you barely crave it and I feel healthier.”

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.

She Supports Animals

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 … 🤷🏻♀️👀😆❤️🙌”
