1. Do Pilates

Bella is one of the many stars who swears by pilates. She posts tons of photos of herself using a pilates reformer to strengthen and elongate her muscles. Why is pilates such an effective workout? According to the Mayo Clinic it “strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility resulting in improved overall health.” It can also help build longer, leaner muscles, prevent injury, offer relief from stress and back pain, enhance athletic performance, and heighten mind-body awareness.

2. Lift Weights

Bella also does regular circuit and strength training. “I am looking to build lean muscle with aerobic conditioning. My workout consists of an hour and I always make time for proper stretching before and after my workout. My focus this morning was to strengthen my core, tighten my waist and light shoulders,” she wrote in one of her Instagram posts.

3. Do Yoga

Bella recently added yoga to her routine and saw (and felt!) major results. “Today was the day I finally noticed results !!! And what's even better is: I FEEL good & healthy,” she captioned this post. “I now feel like I can do more in my day and helps me fall asleep easier at night!” The Mayo Clinic explains that the term ‘drishti,’ referring to obtaining a focused gaze or focus in the mind, comes into play as people aim to hold a pose with their eyes closed. “Certain poses become more challenging with eyes closed, which improves the visual part of balance,” they explain.

4. Eat Clean

Bella is all about maintaining a clean and healthy diet. She fills her plate with veggies, fruit, protein, smoothies, and even rice and pasta. “Rice, black beans, pasta, fruit for my smoothies, veggies and some protein,” are just a few of the items she keeps on hand, she told Hollywood Life.

5. Box

Bella told HollywoodLife that she is a fan of another fighting form of fitness: Boxing. Why should you consider putting your gloves on, a la Bella? "Aerobic exercise gets your heart pumping and helps lower the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. It can strengthen bones and muscles, burn more calories, and lift mood. Aerobics can also boost your endurance, which helps you climb a flight of stairs or walk farther," explains Harvard Health.
