1. Don’t Diet

Brooke chooses lifestyle over trendy fat diets “I don't like the word diet. It’s all about building a sustainable, enjoyable, healthy lifestyle,” she explained.

2. Do Intermittent Fasting

“I intermittent fast most every day,” Brooke told us about the eating practice. “I give myself a resting window of 16 hours, and I eat in an eight-hour window. It's 1:30p right now and I'm breaking my fast. I'm having a shake which is high in calories and in fat, which is totally okay. It has protein, matcha, MCT oil, dates, almond butter, one Tru Niagen stickpack, collagen powder, and cinnamon.”

3. Try Mediterranean Style Eating

“I eat a very Mediterranean-style diet,” she dished. “I have healthy fats such as olive oil and avocados, vegetables, lean proteins, beans, and nuts.” If she doesn’t start her day with a shake, she will eat a grilled salmon salad or some type of protein salad. “I love cobb salad,” she adds. For dinner, she likes fish or a filet mignon with crunchy vegetables. She also enjoys the occasional spirit. “I might have a glass of vino or, if I'm being more health conscious, a tequila-based drink,” she says. “I’m restricting my alcohol intake right now and not drinking any alcohol during the week.”

4. Go to the “Digital Gym”

Brooke prefers online workouts over going to the gym. “I am all about the convenience of the digital gym,” she explains. “That’s one of the good things the pandemic taught us…we can get a great workout from the comfort and in the safety of our own homes.” This is why she opted to start Brooke Burke Body. “I wanted to create something that was accessible to everyone. It sounds crazy but you really can do short 10–20-minute, intense workouts that help you sculpt and tone your body,” she continues. “The app has workouts ranging from 5 minutes to 50 minutes and it is inexpensive at just $9.99 a month. You can even try it for free for a week. But whether it’s my app or free content you find online, take the time to get your body moving. It’s not only good for the body, but also for the mind.”

5. Mix Up Your Workouts

Brooke designs and choreographs her own workouts, which are on the Brooke Burke Body app. “I believe in body sculpting. I believe in movement of all kinds. I do enjoy lifting weights and cardio, but you don’t have to sweat for hours to reshape your body,” she said.

6. Evolve Your Approach to Diet and Fitness

Brooke continues to alter her approach to health and fitness. “I understand my body more today than I did when I was younger. I listen to what it needs. I understand my cycles and why I have different cravings. I give myself grace when I have a cheat day or indulge in pasta like I just did in Italy,” she told us.

7. Try Body-Hacking

Brooke refers to herself as a biohacking nerd. “I am constantly trying new supplements and technology tools to make me feel better,” she explained. “That’s how I became involved with BEMER. We all know how important it is to have proper blood circulation for moving oxygen and nutrients throughout the body and removing waste. But how do you increase blood circulation? That’s what BEMER does. It’s patented technology that stimulates and increases microcirculation by as much as 30%. I won’t go into the science as it can be overwhelming, but I can tell you that it works. BEMER reinforces all the steps that I’m taking in preventative care, so I can live a long, healthy, and active life. And it takes just eight minutes twice a day.”

8. Utilize Health Apps

Brooke recommends using health apps to keep yourself on track. “There are so many great apps that help you track your health and wellness,” she says. “And so many that are free.”

9. Take Supplements

Brooke takes supplements to achieve her nutritional needs. “I’ve been taking a supplement called Tru Niagen for about five years now that promotes health. It works at the cellular level and is all about increasing the NAD+ in our bodies. I usually put that into my morning coffee or protein shake,” she revealed.

10. Do Breathwork

Brooke recommends breathing exercises “I’m all about feeling good. Finding the calm. Finding the power as a woman,” she explained to us, revealing that she is a certified breathwork teacher. “Breathwork is an active form of meditation—an opportunity to reset, release, create, and imagine—which I pair with sound baths that envelop you in positive energy that's healing and can melt stress away,” she continued. “I host in-person retreats and experiences. In fact, we just had our first one since the pandemic at Rafi Lounge Malibu last month.”

11. Find a Workout Buddy

Brooke maintains that workout buddies are great for accountability. “Find a fitness buddy or accountability partner who can help ensure you keep your personal commitment,” she suggested. “It’s easy to deprioritize ourselves. Having someone there who helps to inspire and motivate you sets you up for success.”

12. Take Me Time

“Set aside time for YOU,” Brooke recommended. “That means putting yourself on your daily schedule and remembering that you can still take care of whatever else you need to do before or after your ‘me time.’ You’ll be a better friend, partner, parent, boss, etc. if you take the time to care for yourself and your needs every day.”

Brooke Burke is a fitness icon and, after a long career in acting, transformed herself into a fitness guru, founding Brooke Burke Body. Her Instagram is full of swimsuit photos and videos. Burke just posted a new reel of herself lounging by the pool. In it, she wore a mustard bathing suit, and a floral print caftan, showing off her tonged figure. Burke captioned the reel, “Summer activated.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Brooke Burke 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 Takes Her Mornings Slow

Burke revealed her wellness secrets to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit. She says that she likes to take her mornings slow. “Really slowing down and having grateful moments in the morning. I have my coffee in bed. But before I even rise, I try to steal five to 10 minutes from every day just for myself to get my head in the right place.” Burke says that the pandemic is what got her into this practice.

2. She Makes A Shake Each Morning

Burke likes to start her day with a shake. She shared her recipe to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit. “My first meal of the day after intermittent fasting is a shake that is full of everything I need from good fats, MCT oil, Tru Niagen packets, collagen powders, almond butter cinnamon for anti-inflammatory properties, peptides, etc. I basically put everything I need into one shake, and that’s it. It’s that simple.”

3. She Stays Hydrated

Burke makes sure to stay hydrated each day. She tells Sports Illustrated Swimsuit that it helps not only with her wellness, but with her skin. “Hydration is No. 1. I believe it’s beneficial for hair, skin, nails and joints.” "As you age, your body's fluid reserve becomes smaller, your ability to conserve water is reduced and your thirst sense becomes less acute. These problems are compounded by chronic illnesses such as diabetes and dementia, and the use of certain medications. Older adults also can have mobility problems that limit their ability to obtain water for themselves," says the Mayo Clinic. "Increasing your water intake may seem easy, but it can be hard to remember to drink up."

4. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Burke has amazing skin and she makes sure to take care of it. She revealed some of her favorite products to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit. “I’m a big believer in MCT oil. I also love vitamins for the face. I like Vitamin B, Vitamin C for eye cream and coconut oil.”

5. She Eats Healthy Fats

Burke makes sure to get enough fat in her diet. She tells Hollywood Life that she always eats healthy fats each day. “We need fat, it’s all the things that we were trained not to do that really feed our brain and our skin, our hair. I do eat a lot of fat, but I am pretty conscious of what I eat, I don’t eat processed food really at all.”

American Pickers star Danielle Colby is sharing one of her favorite hobbies with fans: underwater swimming. Colby posted a photo of herself along with a quote by David Lynch, looking serene in a two piece swimsuit. “Meditation is to dive all the way within, beyond thought, to the source of thought and pure consciousness. It enlarges the container, every time you transcend. When you come out, you come out refreshed, filled with energy and enthusiasm for life,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Colby 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 To Swim

Colby is an accomplished underwater swimmer. "Every time I go for a swim I feel like the earth and my incredible swim colleagues have enabled me to have experienced something pretty amazing," says Dr Jenny Martin, a physician and clinical pharmacologist at the University of Newcastle. "You get a release of hormones that make you feel good, like the molecules that are in morphine drugs, and other feel-good hormones like serotonin, dopamine. After an ocean swim in winter, you sometimes get a temporary natural high when you get out … definitely a euphoric feeling."

2. Paddle Boarding

Colby shares her adventures with paddle boarding on her social media. “I had a breakthrough today with @rinconpaddleboards I have never been able to root myself properly for longer duration. I could get up but it didn’t last long,” she says. “Damiano took the time during our private lesson to break down every detail of what’s happening on the board, in the water and in my body and how to respond for more stability. I have a long way to go and needs to stay lower and work on arm placement but I felt so happy with today’s lesson🎉 I always Learn so much.”

3. She’s a Dancer

Colby is a professional dancer, something she says changed her life from day one. “I discovered Burlesque in Chicago quite some time ago, years and years ago- I was addicted from the first show,” she says. “There’s something very empowering about Burlesque. I started learning right away, I started performing way too soon! There’s some great video footage to prove that. But it’s all been a really fun journey, even watching old videos, it’s cool to see how much more at ease I am with myself and with my audience. But it’s funny, I have maintained the same lumbering stance since I started. There’s nothing delicate about me on stage, I just throw my guts out there and then I walk away and let people sort out what they saw.”

4. Mental Health and Confidence

Colby says giving back to the community is one of the best ways to gain happiness and confidence. “My advice, for what it’s worth… If you’re trying to gain or regain confidence, don’t do it through Burlesque,” she says. “Help in your community, educate yourself, travel, find where your real strength lies.”

5. Embracing Her Unique Looks

Colby is famous for her many tattoos, something she considers a “storyline” for her life. “I don’t think I took collecting tattoos seriously at first,” she says. “I mean my first tattoo was an LBT tribal tramp stamp of a butterfly…Ha! I have definitely acquired some more impressive tattoos since then but I collect them for the story. I’m not afraid of people judging the work I have on my body, it’s a storyline for myself. I love it when my friends work on me, I love to collect the memories, I cannot have an artist work on me that I don’t feel close with. I have to feel a sense of kinship I’ve been very fortunate to find that across-the-board with my tattoo artists.”

It’s winter in Australia, and model Georgina Burke is missing the warm weather. Burke shared a throwback Sports Illustrated photo of herself lying in the surf in a stripy two-piece swimsuit, soaking up the Puerto Rican sun. “Australia in the winter is not the same 🥶 dreaming of this day!” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Burke 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. A Love For Exercise

Burke has learned to genuinely enjoy working out instead of seeing it as a punishment. “It’s only taken me 10+ years to finally have a healthy relationship with exercising! Cheers to that!!!” she captioned a post. “Having stayed true to myself for the last three years working on my mental physical and all round health! Now taking more action through exercise and not over consuming alcohol. I’m feeling I’m heading in the direction to be the best version of myself!”

2. Horseback Riding

Burke loves horseback riding, saying it’s something that’s always made her happy. “I was always a confident woman, to be honest. I did equestrian sports,” she says. “And that really puts your body on display: You're wearing white, tight jodhpurs. You've got to be fit and confident. And I wasn't fit. I was a chubby little kid, but I still did it because it was a passion. Modeling is a passion. Yes, I could be thinner. Yes, I could be more skinny, toned, whatever. But I am just doing me. I'm happy in myself and I think that's all that matters.”

3. Coffee Lover

Burke loves coffee, especially in her native Australia. “Australian coffee you are ruining me for nyc 😭 so here is a ten part series of me enjoying it,” she captioned an Instagram post.

“For most people, moderate coffee consumption can be incorporated into a healthy diet," says Frank Hu, chair of the Department of Nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

4. Mental Health and Wellness

Burke makes a point of working on her mental wellbeing as well as her physical health. “I honestly think the most important part of being a model is your mental health,” she says. “I’ve spent the last three years working so extensively at that… I think it’s so important to surround yourself with incredible people. I wasn’t doing that for the longest time.”

5. Don’t Call Her Plus-Sized

Burke is proud to rock a physique that is not necessarily labeled. “I think if you put labels on anyone – whether it’s age, color, size, sex – I feel like it’s so outdated,” she says. “I don’t think I need to be labeled as ‘plus size’. In the beginning, it was an industry term, whereas now, [the industry] is so open and everyone is really coming on board. I feel like it has changed from ‘plus size’ to ‘size inclusive’, to ‘curve’, to this, to that. I’m in Sports Illustrated as a model – it’s not, ‘Whatever number plus-size model to be in [the magazine].’ It’s like, no, there’s a model in Sports Illustrated! We’ve made huge progress, that’s for sure.”

Brooke Shields is showing off her forever young figure – in a swimsuit. In a new social media post the actress makes 59 look like 39, posing on the beach in a bikini and flaunting her super flat abs. “The best new years trip 🩵🏝️,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Thanks for giving me my new goals for 2025 @brookeshields 🔥🙌” commented Beverly Hills, 90210 star Tiffani Thiessen. “🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥,” added supermodel Helena Christensen. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Eating In Moderation

Brooke is all about moderation when it comes to diet. "We’ve been taught, 'Deny yourself pleasure.' But moderation is harder because it requires really committing to balance," she told Health. "I find that if I say, 'I’m not gonna eat ice cream' or 'I’m not gonna drink,' all I want to do is drink and eat ice cream. It’s some kind of psychological battle."

Strength Training

During a recent interview with Celebwell, Brooke’s trainer, New York based trainer Ngo Okafor, unveiled details about her rigorous routine. “Brooke and I would usually train for one hour, three to four days a week. Our sessions are results driven,” the Iconoclast Fitness gym owner told us. To prepare for her recent Jordache campaign, they “ramped up” training. The goal was to get her as lean as possible, in a short time,” Ngo explains. “We did a 14 day transformation program.” During this period, Brooke worked out every single day. “The sessions consisted of strength training circuits and abs, with cardio bursts mixed in, with a goal to keep Brooke’s heart rate elevated while she lifted weights, which will enable her to burn more calories than lifting alone,” Ngo told Celebwell. “I would have Brooke do lighter weights, with high repetitions. This makes the exercises more cardiovascular in nature, which burns more calories. The goal is always to burn 10 calories per minute.”

Focusing On Small, Tiny Movements

"I started working on little individual muscles, and sort of shaping the muscles that don't really get attention," Brooke said on the Today Show about her strategy. "You don't have to deadlift 100 pounds. You can do small, teeny movements to activate these little muscles that actually wrap around other bigger muscles, and they tighten them all in. It was a revelation to work with a personal trainer and it not be a crazy painful thing."

Lots Of Ab Work

If you want flat abs at 59, plan on working for them. Brooke once demonstrated one of her go-to ab moves on Instagram dubbed The Penguin. “It’s harder than it seems... keep your stomach tight and work your obliques,” she instructed. She also uses an exercise ball to activate her abs.

Cardio and Stretching

Brooke also does 30 minutes of cardio on her own. “The other two days would be cardio and stretching days,” he says. “She would do an hour of low impact cardio (to ensure that she didn’t get injured), abs and stretching.” Why should you consider stretching? “Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints,” says Harvard Health. “Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. Then, when you call on the muscles for activity, they are weak and unable to extend all the way. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage.”

Sleep and Hydration

When does Brooke feel her healthiest? “Truly, when I get enough sleep and drink enough water," she told Healthy Living Magazine. "I don’t think there’s a trick to being healthy; I think we all know what our limitations are." What are the health benefits of sleep? According to the Sleep Foundation, getting enough z’s is a mood booster, promotes heart health, regulates blood sugar, improves mental function, restores your immune system, helps relieve stress, and aids in weight loss.

1. She Uses Eye Patches

Richie has gorgeous skin, and since she’s a model, she has to take care of it. She revealed to Vogue that she has sensitive skin, which also means she has to be careful about which products she uses. She says that one product that has helped with her skin is eye patches. “If I’m going to a shoot, I will wake up and drive with these all the way to the shoot until I get into the makeup chair,” she says. "I don't know if anyone can relate to this but my skin is so bad when I fly," she told Vogue. "I break out. I'm dry. So when I travel, I always have these little eye patches, I have face masks, I have these rollers to get my blood flowing...."

2. She’s Happy

"I know that everyone has this perfect image that they have to uphold, but I think that you'll live a happier life if you just smile more and have fun."

"I learned how to do my makeup by watching my mom do her makeup and by watching YouTube tutorials," she told Vogue."I had an Emo stage. I don't even think I wanted to be Emo, I just didn't know how else to do my eyeliner" except to slash it above and below her eyes. "And then there was the preppy girl where I only wore light pink lipstick and blush. We all go through our stages. It's about finding what's right for you."

Kristin Cavallari is a reality TV and fashion icon. Since she debuted on Laguna Beach, people have clamoured for her fashion and beauty secrets. Cavallari recently shared her eye makeup secrets on Instagram, after several people asked for them. She captioned the post, “This is for the girlies in my DMs asking about this eye every time I do it. Sorry the lighting is awful. I also don’t know why the audio isn’t in sync for half of it 🫣 but here ya go 💗”

She's Less Strict With Her Diet

Cavallari has written several cookbooks, and they have changed as her diet has changed. While promoting her book, Truly Simple with EatingWell, she revealed that her diet is less strict. “I've gotten to a point in my life where not everything has to be so perfect anymore,” Cavallari said. “I used to be so strict about what I was putting in my body. I'm still very healthy and very conscious of it, but I've gotten a little bit more lax. True Roots and True Comfort had nothing ‘white’ in them: no white flour, no white sugar, no white salt. But in Truly Simple, I bend a little bit in a few of the recipes, which really reflects where I am in my life and my new way of eating. Everything is a little bit more relaxed around here now.’

She Loves Cauliflower

Cavallari tells EatingWell that she loves making foods with cauliflower. “I love cauliflower because I think it's very versatile, and there's actually a Sweet Harissa Cauliflower recipe in Truly Simple that's my absolute favorite cauliflower recipe on the planet. If you've ever been to True Food Kitchen, their cauliflower was the inspiration behind it. There's this sweet harissa dressing that's on it, and there's little chopped-up dates in it, so it has that nice balance between sweet and savory. It's the absolute best.”

She Loves Salad

Cavallari likes to make salads. She shared one of her favorite recipes with EatingWell. “This salad has a few of my favorite things: salmon (which has omega-3s and is so, so good for you), bacon (no explanation needed), avocado (healthy fats), and spicy tomatillo ranch dressing (just yum). Together, they create culinary heaven. If you aren't familiar with tomatillos, they're similar to tomatoes but are slightly less sweet and are perfect when drenched in ranch.”

She Works With A Trainer

Cavallari tells Us Weekly that a lot of her gym sessions are with her personal trainer. “He kicks my ass,” she says. “He pushes me really hard. He has me actually lifting really heavy weight, the heaviest weight I’ve ever lifted in my entire life. I feel the best I ever have. I feel like I’m the strongest I’ve ever been.”

She Shared Her Eye Makeup Trick

Cavallari shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Us Weekly. She says that consistency is one of her biggest priorities. “My goal is sort of, right now, just to maintain the muscle that I have,” she says. “I’m really petite. I have no hips. I’m just small. And so if I don’t work out for like a week or two, I feel like all my muscle goes away. So it is about consistency for me.”

Rebeca Andrade is an Olympic gymnast. She is the most decorated Olympic athlete from Brazil, having won two gold medals, three silvers, and a bronze. Andrade recently shared some highlights of her native Brazil on Instagram. In some of them, she posed in a swimsuit while wading. Andrade captioned the post, “SC-&-RS🏕️🌅❤️ Being free is a paradox. It's committing to the life you want, without running away from the work that it entails. It's building freedom every day, with conscious choices and, mainly, with the acceptance that freedom is not the absence of limits, but the autonomy to know which ones are worth it and which ones are not. Being free is being willing to carry the weight of your own life and still find it funny.”

She Swims

In her Instagram post, Andrade is seen swimming. The Cleveland Clinic says that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming takes much less of a toll on your body than, say, running or riding a bike. That’s because exercising in water lessens the impact of your body weight on your joints.”

She Does Gymnastics

Gymnastics is the main way Andrade stays in shape. British Gymnastics states that the sport has a lot of benefits. “When you take part in gymnastics, or any sport for that matter, your body releases chemicals called endorphins. These also help to trigger a positive feeling in the body which can have a positive impact on your happiness and mental wellbeing. This can help to combat feelings of anxiety and depression.”

She Prioritizes Safety

Andrade talked about her training approach in an interview with the Olympics website. She says that she and her coach prioritize her safety, and that she will skip floor sessions if she isn’t able to do it. "I talk a lot with my coach and we trust in each other. We always try to be really safe, and do floor in the correct moments. He believes in me. I'm never going to lie to not do it. So, when I really tell him that I can't do it, it's because I cannot and he always respects that.”

She Sets Goals

In her Olympics website interview, Andrade talked about her commitment and goal setting. Specifically, she talked about her goal to make the Olympic team. “The other [goal], which is the main one, is for us to qualify as a team,” Andrade said. “I think it will be very important for me, for my team, and the focus is on that, whatever happens there, the result is a consequence of our work, of our commitment. But I really want to be there with my team and be happy and healthy.”

She Cooks

Andrade makes sure to eat healthy. She also likes to cook a lot of her own meals. She shared some of her favorite things to make in an interview with NPR. “There was one that was with potatoes and cheese, chicken. There’s cake. There’s cookies. A lot of things.”

Brandi Glanville has never been one to hold back, whether on reality TV or her unfiltered podcast. Best known for her time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the US and UK versions of Celebrity Big Brother, and The Traitors, Glanville always speaks her mind. Her podcast, Brandi Glanville Unfiltered, recently stirred up some drama when she called out Real Housewives stars for struggling on The Traitors and suggested the show stop casting them. Many fans saw this as subtle shade toward Phaedra Parks, who excelled in the previous season.

Beyond the headlines, Glanville has shared glimpses into her personal wellness routine, from skincare secrets to unconventional self-care methods. Here’s a look at how she stays feeling and looking her best.

She Uses Eye Patches

Glanville captioned it, “One of the #1 questions we get from fans since leaving #bigbrother is what brand of under eye patches were we wearing constantly on the show...The answer is @peterthomasrothofficial!! They are amaze! #ThanksMarissa 💋 (Blogging about all the products, will be posting on @bbeautyunfltrd soon).”

Glanville likes to walk her dogs to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself and her pup walking in Los Angeles. Glanville captioned the post, “On our way to do some podcasting.” Harvard Health says that walking is very beneficial. “Walking can help protect you during cold and flu season. A study of over 1,000 men and women found that those who walked at least 20 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week, had 43% fewer sick days than those who exercised once a week or less. And if they did get sick, it was for a shorter duration, and their symptoms were milder.”

She Has A Dog

As you can see from the previous Instagram post, Glanville has pet dogs. And according to Harvard Health, this can be beneficial. “A growing body of solid research shows that owning a dog can: provide companionship, help you be more active, make kids calmer, more secure, and more responsible, improve the lives of older individuals, help you be calmer, more mindful, and more present in your life, make you more social and less isolated, ease stress.”

She Worked With A Breath Coach

Glanville revealed to Us Weekly that she works with a breath coach to help with her mental health. “I’m still doing cosmetic stuff, but at the same time trying to fix myself. I eat better and breathe and actually exercise. I’m getting there. I just started with this journey, but I can actually do things. My body can do things now that I couldn’t do five years ago.”

She Uses CellSound

Glanville revealed to People that she used the CellSound treatment on her stomach. "I mean, to be honest, I haven't worn a crop top in years, and I literally feel comfortable going out in a crop top, which is so bizarre," she says. "Not that I feel like everyone should do that, but I can go work out with a crop top on and not feel like I have my mommy stomach and I shouldn't sit down. So it's definitely empowered me in that aspect."
