In her Instagram video, Landolt is seen doing pulldowns, which are a back workout. According to Piedmont, these are very beneficial. “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.”

3. She Does Rows

Landolt is seen doing dual pulley rows in her Instagram post. Rowing exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic reports, “You may not think about the way you carry yourself as a strength thing, but it is. Strong core and back muscles help maintain your posture and reduce pressure on your spinal column. And — while the brain is crucial to balance and coordination — so are our muscles. They help us react quickly and prevent falls.”

4. She Strength Trains

Landolt is seen doing a lot of strength training exercises in her Instagram video. According to The Mayo Clinic, strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories. Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury.”

5. She Goes Outside

Landolt spends a lot of time outside. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself at the beach. Landolt captioned it, “It’s Fridayyyy 🥰Tell me what you’re NOT going to do?! I received 4 new bikinis just today and I’m not going to ignore them this weekend 😈” UC Davis states that spending time outside has a lot of benefits. “Getting out into nature can lead us to want to walk, bike, hike, or kayak more often. People typically engage in regular physical activity when they're in nature. So, stepping outside can help you keep a healthy weight or even lose weight by increasing activity levels.”

Sarah Villegas is showing off her “fitness lifestyle.” In a new social media post featuring the bodybuilder, she shows off her amazing figure in a two-piece exercise outfit while holding weights. “First reaction.. OH MY !!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥,” commented a fan. “Incredibile!” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. Multiple “Layers” to Conditioning

Sarah told Alina Popa and Lenda Murray about what people should know about conditioning on a recent episode of Femme Flex Friday, per Muscle & Fitness. “I think people need to realize there are multiple layers to that. You have leanness, you have dryness, and you have fullness. And all three of those things are very separate,” Villegas explained. “And when you master each one of those, that’s what gives you conditioning.”

2. Aim for “Leanness”

“A lot of times you can have people that aren’t lean enough, and they say ‘well, I was too full.’ You weren’t too full, you weren’t lean enough,” Sarah said during the interview. You have to start with leanness then focus on water balance and fullness of the muscles. “You have to remember that you can only achieve conditioning if you master all three of those.”

3. It Helps You From Acquiring Too Much Body Fat

“Staying too lean keeps you from growing, but obviously, you know, acquiring too much bodyfat in the offseason keeps you from growing as well,” Sarah added. “You lose your shape, and it can be easy to lose sight on what you need to work on.”

4. Lots of Lower Body “Hard Work”

Sarah explained to RX Muscle that she does a lot of lower body workout. “Now you have the best legs in the women's division. What is a body part that came very easy to you? Are you like one of these maniac trainers, squatting heavy and stuff like that? Was it hard work or was it genetics?” she was asked. “Definitely I would say hard work. I would say that they responded very well, but I train the lights out,” she replied. “And you hear it all the time: You gotta build from the bottom up and legs are the most important muscle. But not a lot of people actually really listen to that and follow through with that,” she says. “I have been relentless with leg training, giving it twice as much time throughout my week, twice as much time on the gym floor. So it's definitely been a lot of work. It does help though that I like training legs. I think, you know, I'm one of those weirdos that thinks it's kind of fun and rewarding, but it's definitely been a lot of hard work.”

5. She Trains Others

Sarah also helps others with a personal training and nutrition program. She explains that it is more than just dieting and lifting weights. “We do everything from personal training to diet, nutrition,” she says. This includes DEXA scans, measurements, tracking, and a “whole program” so people can “reach their ultimate body composition”

Andrea Shaw is tackling leg day – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the bodybuilder shows off her amazing figure and impressive strength during an intense workout session at the gym. “Another leg day in the books. Having specific glute and hamstring focused days is something new for me as of this past prep but I’m enjoying it,” she captioned the Instagram clip. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. Her “Life Is Bodybuilding”

Andrea devotes herself to staying in shape. “There is a lot that goes into it,” she told BarBend. “My life is bodybuilding — almost exclusively for three months out of the year. I have to give it my best.”

2. She Trains Every Day

“I train every single day,” she said. “The goal is to work out seven days a week and to train each body part twice a week. The average person training is hitting a body part once a week. So, after four weeks, they’ve only trained that body part four times. If I train everything twice a week, I’ve hit that body part eight times in that same four weeks.”

3. Back Day Workout

On back day she focuses on her lower back, lats, and traps, while indirectly working her biceps. She does 10 exercises performing sets at a fast pace.

  • Rack Pull: 5 x 8-12
  • Pendlay Row: 4 x 8-10
  • Barbell Shrug: 4 x 8-12
  • Barbell Upright Row: 4 x 8-12
  • Bent-Over Barbell Shrug: 4 x 8-12
  • Wide-Grip Pull-up: 2 x 6
  • Narrow-Grip Pull-up: 2 x 6
  • Bent-Over Straight Arm Pulldown: 4 x 12
  • Wide-Grip Pulldown: 4 x 12
  • Face Pull: 4 x 12

4. Chest and Glute Day Workout

Shaw does two chest-specific moves on these days, including the side-by-side chest press. She also does glute bridges into the workout with dumbbells and five sets of farmer’s carry.

  • Flat Dumbbell Bench Press: 6 x 8-12
  • Side-by-Side Chest Press: 6 x 8-12
  • Glute Bridge: 5 x 8-12
  • Farmer’s Carry with Dumbbells: 5 sets

5. Leg Day Workout

On leg day Andrea starts with warmups and then moves onto doing 25 total sets of a chosen exercise.For example, she might go on the leg curl machine, select a weight, and perform a single rep each, rest a minute, then do two reps with the same weight, followed by three, and on and on until 25 reps. She ends up doing 325 reps. “When I finish that, my legs are humming,” she joked.

Cydney Gillon is posing and appreciating her body 8 weeks post-show – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the IFBB pro takes a moment to show off her fit figure and celebrate it with a self-love post. “If you don’t learn anything else from me, learn the importance of a reverse diet, year-round consistency and loving your body at EVERY stage,” she wrote. “So glad I mastered self-discipline before I retired. I really started locking in my ‘retirement mindset’ two years ago so that I was prepared to make the shift.” How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

6 Small Meals a Day

Cydney detailed her diet to Kaged explaining that she sticks to 6 small meals per day. “Most of these meals will be fairly small to keep you from exceeding your recommended calories each day. A couple of the benefits of consuming multiple meals a day is that you’ll have a constant supply of amino acids to protect you muscle mass, and you’ll have fuel in your system to help prevent you from cheating,” she said. She aims for 2100 calories per day. “You know that calories count. You aren’t going to get rid of body fat if you’re consuming too many calories each day. The question for you is: How many calories should you take in each day? My suggestion may shock you a bit. I recommend that you consume 15 calories for the body weight you expect to achieve at the end of this 8-week program. And you shouldn’t expect to drop more than about 10 pounds — with a few exceptions — because you’ll also be adding muscle,” she says.

Protein

“When your goal is to cut body fat while retaining or even building muscle tissue, it’s crucial that you consume plenty of protein every day. And it’s also important that you get in protein at regular intervals throughout the day. That’s because you need those free-floating amino acids in your system to make sure that your body isn’t breaking down muscle tissue to fuel your workouts and supply energy for daily activities,” she continues. “My recommendation is that you get in at least 40 percent of your calories from protein. If you’re that person who is consuming 2100 calories a day on this program, that means you need to consume about 210 grams of protein each day.” Protein sources she recommends include egg whites, eggs, chicken, ground turkey, Micropure Whey Protein Isolate and Kasein. “You can also consume other forms of protein such as white fish, fatty fish, seafood, and lean beef. Vegetarian forms will work as well if you don’t eat meat,” she says.

Carbohydrates

In total, about 40 percent of your daily intake of calories should come from carbohydrates, according to Cydney. “For women who are consuming 2100 calories a day that means you should get in about 210g of carbs each day,” she says, recommending slow-digesting forms of carbohydrates. “These foods stay with you longer, and they help prevent you from feeling hungry. In addition, they help control the release of insulin, a benefit while you’re dieting. Good examples of slow-digesting carbs that I like are brown rice, oatmeal, and sweet potatoes and yams. These foods also help you replace muscle glycogen, which you burn when you’re training with intensity,” she says. “You can also consume plenty of vegetables and fruits. For vegetables, I like low-calorie green veggies that are high in fiber and nutrients. Examples include zucchini, broccoli, asparagus, Brussels sprouts and spinach. In addition you can get in raw crunchy vegetables such as celery and all forms of leafy greens. With fruits, you should emphasize those that are low in calories and high in fiber. Berries are among the best choices. In addition, you can consume beans and lentils that are high in dietary fiber. Good examples include pinto, black, chickpeas/garbanzo beans and green peas. It’s important to get in plenty to fiber because it provides satiety, and it helps your digestive system working regularly. Not everyone handles a high-protein diet all that well when they begin, and bumping up fiber can help.”

Dietary Fats

Dietary fats are also important. “In fact they should make up about 20 percent of your daily intake. Dietary fats are not the enemy when you’re trying to reduce body fat; they can be very beneficial so long as you don’t over consume them,” she says. “While every gram of fat contains 9 calories per gram (as compared to about 4 calories per gram for carbs and protein), one of the benefits of consuming fats is that they digest slowly and provide satiety, which is crucial in helping you stay on your nutrition program while shedding body fat.” She recommends consuming equal portions of “healthy” and “saturated” fats. “Healthy fats such as Omega 3s and 6s protect your heart and spur growth. While most people in the Western world tend to get in plenty of Omega 6s, they often have a deficit in Omega 3s. Good sources of Omega 3s include fatty fish such as salmon and sardines. These may not be your favorite foods, but you can also supplement Omega 3s if you aren’t getting in enough of them from foods,” she says.

Hydration

“Don’t forget that you need to take in plenty of water every day. That’s especially true when you’re training with intensity and cutting calories to reduce body fat. I like to drink water when I get out of bed first thing in the morning,” she says. “Remember that all low- or no-calorie beverages such as tea and coffee also provide fluids, so you don’t need to cut these while you’re on my 8-week Fat-loss Figure Trainer. My recommendation is that you get in about 1 gallon of water each day.”

Lindsey Bomgren, a popular fitness trainer, regularly shares her favorite workout routines with her Instagram followers, keeping them motivated and fit. Recently, she posted a video featuring an updated version of her 25-minute upper body workout with hand weights. “Today’s workout is ALL STRENGTH and ALL ARMS (okay, there’s some sneaky core work in there too!),” she captioned. Known for her well-rounded approach, Bomgren incorporates both strength and core exercises into her routines, helping her followers achieve total body fitness. Whether it’s leg day or focusing on unilateral training, she keeps things fresh, challenging, and accessible for all levels. Her dedication to fitness and passion for helping others is clear in every post.

Bomgren captioned the post, “Today’s Workout is PURE FIRE 👉 30-Minute Leg Workout (Strength, Power, Isometrics!!) 🔥Each circuit starts with a strength training exercise as your base, then we’ll amp things up with a power move and finish with an isometric hold🔥

3. She Does Core Workouts

Bomgren has an amazing core, so she naturally does a lot of core workouts. She shared this post on Instagram of herself doing things like planks and mountain climbers. The Mayo Clinic states that core workouts have a lot of benefits. “Your core is the central part of your body. It includes your pelvis, lower back, hips and stomach. The stomach muscles sometimes are called abs. Core exercises train the muscles in your core to work in harmony. This leads to better balance and steadiness, also called stability. Stability is important whether you're on the playing field or doing regular activities. In fact, most sports and other physical activities depend on stable core muscles.”

4. She Does Unilateral Training

So, how does she stay in such incredible shape? From strength training to boxing, here’s a look at her go-to fitness moves.

She Strength Trains

In her Instagram post, Sharvari is seen doing a strength training exercise. The Mayo Clinic says that strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories. Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

She Does Yoga

Sharvari shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. One thing she likes to do is yoga. Sharvari posted this video of herself doing poses on her page. John Hopkins Medicine states that yoga is very beneficial. “Regular yoga practice may reduce levels of stress and body-wide inflammation, contributing to healthier hearts. Several of the factors contributing to heart disease, including high blood pressure and excess weight, can also be addressed through yoga.”

She Plays Padel

Sharvari likes to play padel to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself on the court. Playing padel has a lot of health benefits. Everybody Health & Leisure says, “It improves cardiovascular fitness, helps to build strength and endurance, enhances coordination and promotes overall physical and mental well-being. Not to mention, it’s a fantastic way to burn calories.”

She Boxes

Another thing that Sharvari does to keep herself in shape is box. She first picked this up when training for the film, Vedaa. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself punching a bag. Sharvari captioned the post, “BEAST MODE on for Vedaa! ⚠️☠️🥊 Took up boxing to become Vedaa... Now I am ready to pack a punch or be strong enough to take a brutal beating 💪#Vedaa coming to a theatre near you on August 15th.”

She Runs

Sharvari likes to run to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself running on the beach. She captioned the post, “Decided to seas the day!” Better Health says that running is very beneficial. “Regular running or jogging offers many health benefits. Running can: help to build strong bones, as it is a weight bearing exercise, strengthen muscles, improve cardiovascular fitness, burn plenty of kilojoules, help maintain a healthy weight.”

Natasa Stankovic in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Wednesday Challenge"

Stankovic shares her go-to workout moves, from squats to lunges, cardio, Pilates, and strength training.

Natasa Stankovic isn’t just a content creator—she’s a fitness inspiration. Known for sharing intense workout sessions on Instagram, she keeps her followers motivated with creative exercise challenges and dynamic routines.

In her latest post, Stankovic teamed up with Aleksandar Illic for a lower body blast, pushing through variations of squats and lunges. Dressed in a sleek two-piece workout set, she captioned the session, “Wednesday challenge,” proving that fitness is all about consistency and fun.

So, how does she maintain her lean, strong physique? From strength training to Pilates, here’s a look at Stankovic’s go-to workout moves.

She Does Squats

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

She Does Cardio

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

She Does Pilates

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial. The Cleveland Clinic says, “One of the reasons Pilates is such a good workout is that it specifically focuses on building core strength.”

She Strength Trains

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health 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.”

Kim French in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Real Results" Workout

Learn how she sculpts her powerhouse physique with deadlifts, lunges, squats, and more.

Kim French is more than just a personal trainer—she’s a fitness coach who empowers thousands through her Believe App and Instagram workouts. Known for her structured, effective home training plans, she proves that you don’t need a gym full of heavy weights to build serious strength.

In a recent Instagram post, French shared a glimpse of her at-home training, reminding followers that smart training delivers "REAL results." Rocking a sleek two-piece workout set, she showcased some of her go-to exercises, emphasizing that with the right strategy, anyone can see progress.

So what’s in her routine? From deadlifts to hip thrusts, here’s how French sculpts her powerhouse physique.

She Does Deadlifts

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

She Does Lunges

Another exercise that French is seen doing in her Instagram post is lunges. NASM says that they are very beneficial. “The lunge is a versatile, simple and effective movement for lower body training. Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

She Does Squats

French is seen doing squats in her Instagram video. According to The Cleveland Clinic, squats are very beneficial. “Here’s a quick look at the many benefits of squats, also known as bodyweight squats or air squats: Works major muscle groups. Burns calories. Strengthens your core. Improves lower body strength. Enhances stability and balance. Betters your posture.”

She Does Hamstring Curls

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
