1. Her Workouts Are Consistent

Blake’s trainer, Don Saldino, recently told E! News that Blake’s goal is "just to get in and move everyday successfully, because rather than comparing it to your best workout, she's now leaving and saying, 'Great, I moved!' That's the big lesson here. Don't feel like you have to get up off the couch and set this world record workout. Because if that's the goal, no one's ever going to be successful. We're looking for this level of consistency."

2. She Works Out Almost Every Day

Saldino told Cosmopolitan that his star client works out almost every day. “Five to six days a week, Blake can spend anywhere from 30 to 75 minutes working out. The routine usually begins with foam-rolling, then five to seven minutes of mobility work. After that, she's doing a variation on a jump, throw, carry, and doing that for three to five rounds. "That gets her body temperature up, that gets her really athletic, and it's my way of doing an upper body, a lower body, and a core movement," he said.

3. She Makes Sacrifices

To slim down for her bathing suit wearing role in The Shallows, Blake cut two things from her diet. “I did no gluten and no soy,” she said in an interview with Australian radio hosts Kyle and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson. “Once you remove soy, you realize you’re eating no processed foods. So that’s basically what I did. No processed foods and then working out.” She added that it was harder than it seems. “[It] seems like, ‘Oh, that’s really easy to cut that out,’ but then you realize, there’s soy in everything,” she said. “Like, everything you eat, there is soy in it. Even if it’s healthy, Whole Foods-organic stuff, there’s always soy in it.”

4. She Is Active Outdoors

In addition to working out, Blake maintains an active lifestyle. "I hate the gym. Who doesn't? When I'm in the gym I feel like I am missing out. So I would rather rent a bike or go for a hike," Lively told You. "Even low-intensity exercise can be incredibly beneficial to your health. Regular physical activity can help prevent dementia in older adults. Activities involving sequenced movements — like tai chi — are particularly helpful, as they exercise your mind and body at the same time," says the Mayo Clinic.

5. She Doesn’t Count Calories

Saldano told Cosmo that Blake never counts calories. Instead she has trained her metabolism to burn more efficiently. "I don't think putting someone into a caloric deficit, meaning restricting their calories, is the right thing to do," he explained "and this is why a lot of coaches and a lot of people are unsuccessful."

6. She Follows the 80/20 Rule

Saldano explained to Cosmo that Blake follows the 80/20 rule, meaning "80 percent of the week, you're really good, and 20 percent you leave for error and having fun." She also doesn’t drink any alcohol.

1. She Loves Oysters

Lawrence enjoys oysters, which are a great source of vitamin D, copper, selenium, iron, vitamin B12, and zinc. “Yes, oysters are very good for you,” says preventive cardiology dietitian Julia Zumpano, RD, LD. “In fact, you probably didn’t know that it’s hard to beat all the health benefits of oysters from a nutritional standpoint. Oysters can really pack a healthy punch. Think of oysters as little shells full of nutrients.”

2. She Stays True To Herself

Being on a reality show didn’t affect Lawrence’s sense of self. “For me it was easy because I just didn’t have to think about it,” she told COMPLEX. “I just said what I wanted to say, I did what I wanted to do. There wasn’t much thought into it because I was like, this is just who I am as a person. I look back and I’m like, OK, maybe I shouldn’t have done or said that, but then I’m like, well, I’m being authentic. So that’s me. And if people don’t like something that I did or said, then they might just not like me.”

3. She Loves Her “Beach Hair”

Lawrence isn’t a fan of the overly-groomed look, preferring messier “beach hair”. “A lot of people just tell me to brush my hair, which I don’t disagree with them,” she jokes. Lawrence’s hair might actually be healthier this way, experts say, "After only a day of not using irons or heat instruments to style the hair, it will be in the condition that our hair is which is dehydrated, fragile, dull, and lifeless," says Garnier celebrity hairstylist Millie Morales. "After a month, you will notice an incredible, stronger change in your hair. You would have recovered the hydration, the natural oils of your hair and would have strengthened the protective layer of the hair."

4. She Loves the Water

Lawrence has posted lots of snaps of herself frolicking in the ocean (in a bikini, of course!). “The color blue has been found by an overwhelming amount of people to be associated with feelings of calm and peace,” says clinical psychologist Richard Shuster, PsyD. “Staring at the ocean actually changes our brain waves’ frequency and puts us into a mild meditative state.”

5. She Loves to Dance

Lawrence enjoys dancing, based on her TikTok posts. “We know that movement is good for everyone,” says Emily Sandow, supervisor of dance physical therapy at NYU Langone’s Harkness Center for Dance Injuries. “A healthy lifestyle is integrating the mind, body and soul relationship, and dance has all of those characteristics. Everyone can do something, even if it’s just you just tapping your foot. Everyone can do something where they can move their body to music, and that’s really valuable.”

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have a supportive marriage—especially when it comes to one another’s new projects. “Go see @freeguymovie this weekend or you’ll be bummed,” Lively posted cheekily on Instagram today, with an image of herself in a bikini, backside to camera—and a Photoshopped Ryan Reynolds, who’s film Free Guy is out tomorrow, making a yowza face, popping out of a pool. He’s not alone in feeling that way. Blake has amazed many with her fit figure. How does she do it?

To lose weight for her hit film The Shallows..."Once you remove soy, you realize you're eating no processed foods," Lively explained in an interview with Australian radio hosts Kyle and Jackie O’ Henderson. "So that's basically what I did. No processed foods and then working out.” Easy? Not entirely. “[It] seems like, 'Oh, that's really easy to cut that out,' but then you realize there's soy in everything," she said. "Like, everything you eat, there is soy in it. Even if it's healthy, Whole Foods-organic stuff, there's always soy in it."

2. She’s Learned That Feeling Insecure Can Be “Silly”

After giving birth, no one could provide Lively with samples that would fit. "It doesn't send a great message to women when their bodies don't fit into what brands have to offer. It's alienating and confusing,” said Lively. “I wish I felt as confident then as I do now, a year later looking back. That body gave me a baby. And was producing that baby's entire food supply. What a beautiful miracle. But instead of feeling proud, I felt insecure. Simply because I didn't fit into clothes. How silly is that in retrospect."

3. She Knows to Value Sleep

“Actress Blake Lively's trainer is emphasizing an essential component for healthy living that's so easy to underestimate: sleep,” reports Self. “Don Saladino, who has trained celebrities like Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, actually values shut-eye so much that he tries to make it to bed at 9 P.M. every night. ‘When I meet with my clients, the first thing we talk about is sleep, then stress levels, then nutrition,’ Saladino told the Daily Mail. ‘The exercise we leave for last because that's the easiest thing to take care of.’”

4. She Trained Hard for the Shallows

"I had to be in just a bikini. So for vanity's sake, that was an issue," she told Marie Claire. "They didn't hire a stunt double until the last two weeks of shooting. So everything I did—underwater stunts, flipping off of a buoy—it was incredibly physically and emotionally demanding." Her trainer Saladino told People: “We would do an upper body workout Monday, lower body Tuesday. Wednesday was a playful pool workout where she would do laps," he said. "Thursday was upper body, Friday lower body, and Saturday we were focusing on the accessory movers: the arms, the shoulders."

5. Her Husband Thinks She’s Epic

"By the time we were in post[-production], we’d been to Comic-Con, and people went crazy for it," Reynolds said of his hit Deadpool. "The expectations were eating me alive...Blake helped me through that," he said. "I’m lucky to have her around just to keep me sane." "There was a minute where I even thought, 'Maybe I shouldn't do the movie,' because it had been this thing with such a build-up," Ryan said at the Critics' Choice Awards. "And she was the one that said, 'You gotta do it. You absolutely have to do it. It's your dream role. The role you're meant to play. So you've got to get up there and do it.’ She's been epic for me in every way."

Too Hot To Handle star Emily Miller lives up to her show’s name. Especially when you take a look at her most recent Instagram post. Miller posed in a black and white swirly swimsuit on a balcony.

Read on to see 5 ways Emily Miller 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 Loves Plant Based Burgers

Miller loves to eat plant-based foods on occasion. Specifically, she loves to make plant-based burgers, and has tried them made from jackfruit. Eating plant-based foods has a lot of health benefits. According to the MD Anderson Center at the University of Texas, “Plants have essential nutrients that you cannot get from other foods. The vitamins and minerals, phytochemicals and antioxidants in plants help keep your cells healthy and your body in balance so that your immune system can function at its best.”

2. She Swims

Miller loves to go to the pool and to the beach, specifically to go for a swim. She has posted several photos and videos on Instagram of herself enjoying a dip in the water. Swimming and spending time in the water is a great way to stay active. BetterHealth.gov says, “Swimming is a great workout because you need to move your whole body against the resistance of the water.”

3. She Gets Outside

Miller spends a lot of time outside, and loves to get fresh air and time in the sunshine. She has posted several photos on Instagram of herself enjoying time outdoors. Spending time outside doesn’t just help our bodies, it can also help relax us and help with our mental health. According to UNC Health Talk, “Walking has been proven effective in reducing anxiety and depression, and there is further evidence that walking in nature improves those results even further. That’s because different parts of our brain activate in nature. Our mind calms, leading to physical changes including a reduction in heart rate and blood pressure.”

4. She Loves Hot Tubs

In addition to the pool and the ocean, Miller loves to spend time in a hot tub or jacuzzi. She posted this stunning photo on Instagram, captioning it, “On Sundays we hot tub.” Hot tubs aren’t just a great way to relax, they can also help you recover from pain or injuries. According to a study from Myra.org, “​​Soaking in warm water often can help reduce your pain and stiffness and the benefits. There are many reasons soaking in warm water works. It reduces the force of gravity that’s compressing your joint. Water offers 360-degree support for sore limbs, can decrease swelling and inflammation and increase circulation.”

5. She Once Went Cliff Diving

Miller is up for trying new things, and is up for a good adrenaline rush. She previously has gone cliff diving. Activities like that give your body a natural rush of adrenaline, which can help you get through your day. Also, doing something scary like that can help you conquer other things in your personal life.
