Bella Thorne is soaking up the sun and sea. The 24-year-old actress looked white hot in a swimsuit over the weekend, flaunting her famous figure while lounging on a boat. “Getting my vitamin sea hehehe,” she captioned a series of snaps shared to Instagram. How does the actress prioritize health and wellness? Read on to see 5 of Bella Thorne’s top tips for staying 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. 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.

Bella Thorne, star of the Babysitter series and Infamous, hit Cabo and shared the swimsuit images to show what a great time she had. “Llévame de vuelta 🤍🤍,” she captioned it. (Rough translation: “Take me Back.”) How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Bella Thorne 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’s Done Plyometrics

“It's easy to zone out and mindlessly hop from one piece of equipment to the next when you're at the gym. But the nature of body-weight workouts forces you to focus and get down to business. In fact, if you add plyometric moves — such as lateral jumps, squat jumps or even skipping — to your routine, you can maximize calorie burn in 20 minutes or less,” says the Mayo Clinic.

2. Yoga Helped Her Get Results

“Today was the day I finally noticed results !!! And what's even better is: I FEEL good & healthy,” she captioned an Instagram post a few years back. “I now feel like I can do more in my day and helps me fall asleep easier at night!” The workout? Yoga! It can help your heart, too. “Major cause of death across the world is coronary artery disease. Its severity depends on various risk factors like hypertension, diabetes, smoking, dyslipidemia, obesity, stress and others. Combined Indian yoga and aerobic training give better control of coronary risk factors,” sasy one study.

3. She Hydrates

Bella has enjoyed water with watermelon, orange and lemon, adding flavor without any added sugars. This is so much healthier than energy drinks. “Most energy drinks contain large amounts of caffeine, which can provide a temporary energy boost. Some energy drinks contain sugar and other substances. The boost is short-lived, however, and may be accompanied by other problems,” says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Got a Colonoscopy

Due to digestive issues, Thorne revealed she got a colonoscopy. “A colonoscopy is a test that allows a healthcare provider to see inside your large intestine. This procedure is done with a flexible camera called a scope. This test is used to check out symptoms like bleeding, as well as look for polyps and possible signs of colon cancer. It’s recommended that adults start getting colonoscopies at age 45,” says the Cleveland Clinic.

5. She Does This for Her Mental Health

“Here are 4 things I do for my mental health,” she wrote recently:

“1. Self reflection

  1. Me time — Sun + my dogs always brighten my day and make me happy
  2. Look in the mirror and tell myself … you can do anything you put your mind to.
  3. Sometimes before I drift off into sleep I repeat the words I’m happy everything is perfect (almost as if I’m trying to convince myself).

Sometimes u have to convince your self into different mental patterns!! If you have any tips I would love to hear them ❤️”

Carmen Electra posted a video of herself dancing to “Coming in Hot.” “I don’t go to the gym every day,” she once told the Cut. “Usually when I’m on break, I’ve already danced a lot so I’m okay for a while. Sometimes I work out at my house. I’ll do some lunges, something simple like that. Otherwise I’ll go to the gym. I’ve only had one trainer in my life, and I realized that because of my dance background, I already have discipline and I don’t need to be pushed. I think I’ve saved a lot of money too. As a dancer, I’ve never put strict rules on my workout habits and sometimes I just want to go to the gym and do something light.”

5. Rita Ora Went Seaside

“Happy weekend. I’ll be seaside,” Rita Ora captioned an Instagram post. "For me, every day I wake up feeling like, 'OK, what do I want to conquer today?' and that helps me get dressed," Ora said to TZR. "I always wear a tight pair of pants to make myself feel really sexy and feminine. Ones I recently discovered and I can't take off are the [Maison] Margiela shiny pants. They're high-waisted and they make your legs look super long."

I know McDonald's will never turn its back on me. I can always go to McDonald's and order a Saweetie Meal," Saweetie told Forbes the Culture. "I think McDonald's just saw that I genuinely love the meal. I'm always remixing their meals on my live. I only really go live when I eat. So, the fact that I'm here right now with these beautiful packages and cartons of Saweetie Meal behind me is like a dream come true. So, just a match made in heaven."

The opportunity comes to you, you'll see if you ride it. Hold on tight, don't let go. Laugh... Weeps that each one has his time. Laugh... Cry, live your life, enjoy it all.”

4. She Gets Her Vitamin D

"Vitamin D isn't naturally found in many foods, but you can get it from fortified milk, fortified cereal, and fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel and sardines. Your body also makes vitamin D when direct sunlight converts a chemical in your skin into an active form of the vitamin (calciferol)," says the Mayo Clinic. "The amount of vitamin D your skin makes depends on many factors, including the time of day, season, latitude and your skin pigmentation. Depending on where you live and your lifestyle, vitamin D production might decrease or be completely absent during the winter months. Sunscreen, while important to prevent skin cancer, also can decrease vitamin D production."

5. She Likes the Beach

"Swimming can improve mood in both men and women. For people with fibromyalgia, swimming can decrease anxiety, and exercise therapy in warm water can decrease depression and improve mood. Water-based exercise can improve the health of pregnant people and has a positive effect on the pregnant person’s mental health. Parents of children with developmental disabilities find that recreational activities, such as swimming, improve family connections," says the CDC.

Bella Thorne is enjoying the sea and sunshine in Cancun, Mexico. The 24-year-old actress posted a series of pictures of herself wearing a bright bedazzled bikini, with the tongue-in-cheek-caption, “This is Ariel now, feel old yet?” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Thorne 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 Pilates

Thorne attends regular Pilates reformer sessions. “Both the equipment and the exercises can be modified and adjusted to any body, which makes it perfect for those looking to tone up, rehab from an injury, train for a particular hobby or sport, or for those looking for low impact, full-body workout,” says Tianna Strateman, Vice President of Training and Experience for Club Pilates.

2. She’s Not Vegan Because… Bacon

Thorne is not vegan, because she finds bacon too hard to resist (understandable!). She eats plenty of vegan food though, thanks to her sister’s diet. “I'm not, I'm so sorry guys,” she says. “I really want to be though. My sister's a vegan so we eat a lot of vegan food but man, bacon. Oh, gets me every time.”

3. She Doesn’t Use Scales

Thorne stopped weighing herself after realizing it was doing more harm than good. “Almost every day I have been to the gym in the last six weeks,” she says. “Turns out I only lost one pound of fat and gained one pound of muscle. Throw away your scales ladies because they don’t mean s**t. As long as YOU feel better and u like the way u look that’s all that matters.”

4. She Loves Pasta

Thorne loves to indulge in a bowl of spaghetti every now and then. “Whole wheat pasta is a better option, thanks to its higher fiber content – this will help to fill you up, support digestive health…” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “That said if you prefer white pasta, fresh pasta, which has a higher protein content, has less of an impact on blood sugar levels than the equivalent portion of another popular carb, white rice. Whole grain pasta is lower in calories and contributes more vitamins and minerals than the white, refined equivalent, making it a healthier choice.”

5. She Doesn’t Do Traditional Cardio

Thorne prefers strength training to cardio. “My brother is my trainer. He's getting into the UFC, and he does Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, and Mixed Martial Arts,” she says. “He's got me doing circuit training and weight lifting—I never do cardio. A lot of people think that cardio burns off weight better than weight lifting does...but weight lifting works your muscles, getting them toned while losing fat.”

So mysterious.” She also shared this video of herself swimming in the same pool, captioning it, “Lost in Lombok Island.”

4. She Gets Her Vitamin D

The sun's rays provide ultraviolet B (UVB) energy, and the skin uses it to start making vitamin D. (The skin actually produces a precursor that is converted into the active form of the vitamin by the liver and kidneys.) Vitamin D is best known for its vital role in bone health. Without this "sunshine vitamin," the body can't absorb the calcium it ingests, so it steals calcium from bones, increasing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Vitamin D also helps maintain normal blood levels of phosphorus, another bone-building mineral," says Harvard Health.

5. She Hits the Beach

"The healing benefits of being in nature have been expressed by many different cultures, poets, and healers throughout the ages. Research confirms the amazing healing effects of nature on our emotional, mental, and physical wellbeing. Even viewing images of nature scenes has benefits," says the Mayo Clinic. "Being in nature reduces your heart rate, blood pressure, and the production of stress hormones and makes you feel better emotionally. A study published in Frontiers in Psychology showed that 20-minutes of walking or sitting in nature without any distractions of digital devices, provided the most reduction in stress."

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.

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.

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. When you take part in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn. Regular trips to the gym are great, but don't worry if you can't find a large chunk of time to exercise every day. Any amount of activity is better than none. To gain the benefits of exercise, just get more active throughout your day. For example, take the

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 … 🤷🏻♀️👀😆❤️🙌”
