Charlize Theron is welcoming the warmer weather and spring sunshine. Theron, 47, shared pictures of herself sitting on the beach in a white swimsuit and straw hat, sipping on a drink from a champagne glass. “A small appreciation toast to spring. Don’t be shy. We are ready for you. ☀️,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Theron 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. Diet and Movement

Theron is sensible about her diet, and balancing it out with her workouts. “I’m always calculating my activity,” she says. “If I haven’t been moving a lot, I can’t eat a lot. Or maybe it’s a cheat day. But I’m honest with myself. When I leave to go exercise, my kids will say, ‘Where are you going?’ I tell them that I’m going someplace to make sure my heart works for a very, very long time!”

2. Pilates Sessions

Theron loves Pilates, saying it totally changed her body. “The nice thing about Pilates is you don't have to break a sweat if you don't want to — but you can also work the exercises quickly (bearing in mind fluidity, of course!) to get your heart rate going,” says Johns Hopkins Medicine. “Or, because Pilates is primarily about strength and flexibility, pair your pilates workout with a form of aerobic exercise like swimming or brisk walking.”

3. Outdoorsy Type

Theron is happiest when working out in the fresh air. “I’ve always believed that if you find something you love, exercise won’t be a chore,” she says. “I love anything outdoorsy. My mom recently got me to play tennis, which I wasn’t good at, but really enjoyed it. If you do the exercise you enjoy you’re keeping yourself fit without even realizing it.”

4. Green Juices

Theron makes an effort to eat a healthy and nutritious diet. "I have juices and kale and green salads every day,” she says. “When I'm eating healthily, getting enough sleep and not drinking alcohol, that's when I look my best. That's when I'm happiest and I think it shows."

5. Simple Routine

When it comes to her skincare and beauty routine, Theron keeps things as simple as possible. “We wake up really early in my house—5:45 a.m,” she says. “I’m a single mom trying to get two kids ready, pack the lunchboxes, and not miss the bus.When I wake up I just rinse my face and put on sunscreen.”

Kate Beckinsale is an actress, best known for her role in the popular Underworld film series. She just shared a stunning new set of photos on Instagram. In it, Beckinsale enjoyed time at the beach. She wore a brown bikini, sunhat, and a white cover-up. Beckinsale’s amazing figure was on display. She captioned the post, “Say hello to falsetto, in three, two, one, swag.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Kate Beckinsale 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 Stands Up For Herself

Beckinsale isn’t afraid to stand up for herself. When she felt that her comments in an interview were misconstrued, she hit back. Beckinsale explained herself in this Instagram post. “I was asked multiple times in a recent interview if knew my IQ. I didn’t answer the question the first few times, but I did tell the truth that my mum had had me tested when I was young,and that it was high. I didn’t remember the number,and after being pressed several times to call my mother and ask her, I did. Here’s the dilemma: Tell the truth? Refuse to answer the question? Lie? Pretend it was lower? I told the truth and some journalists have been triggered by this. Are we really jumping on women for answering a question truthfully about their intelligence or education? Are we really still requiring women to dumb themselves down in order not to offend?”

2. She Protects Her Skin From The Sun

National Film Awards 2022 - Winners RoomJoe Maher/Getty Images

Beckinsale has amazing skin. She revealed some of her secrets to People. Beckinsale says that protecting her skin from the sun is one of her main tips. "I think obviously some of it is a genetic thing, although you can mess that up. I didn't see sun for the first several decades of my life, and that's probably been a big help. A great deal of it was geography [growing up in England], but the otwas on the very rare occasions when we would go on a family vacation somewhere hot, I was paranoid that I would get freckles in a mustache formation on my face. So I was wearing Factor 70 [SPF]. I just didn't want a mustache, that's really why I used sunscreen."

3. She Makes Time For Herself

2022 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Hosted By Radhika Jones - ArrivalsArturo Holmes/FilmMagic

Beckinsale has a busy schedule, but she always makes time to relax. "I literally cannot transition from day to night unless I have submerged myself in water," she says to People. "Which is really annoying because I could get a hotel room and it'll have cockroaches and go, 'Okay, fine,' But if [the room] doesn't have a bathtub, I'll be like, 'Sorry, can I move?' I really need to have that every day, no matter what. Even when it's Oscar night and you're getting home at seven in the morning once you've been to 15 parties. I still have to go through the whole bath thing."

4. She Pushes Herself To Workout

Beckinsale opened up about her fitness secrets to Shape Magazine. She admits that she doesn’t always want to workout. However, she pushes herself to get through it. "I start out absolutely dreading it, do an incredibly punishing workout, bitch about it the whole time, and end up feeling 100 percent better when I leave," she says. "Working out is basically nature's antidepressant."

5. She Works With A Trainer

Beckinsale works out with personal trainer, Gunnar Peterson, to help her stay in shape. She talked about their sessions to Shape Magazine. "I work out hard with Gunnar five or six times a week," she says. "We have loads in common, like our kids. During our sessions we have long talks about teenagers, and then suddenly one day I find that my ass is in a lot better shape than I thought it was!"

Redknapp even made a documentary about it. It was called The Truth About Size Zero, and talked about the singer’s struggles with her weight, and the dangers of losing too much weight. “Everything he said shocked me. It’s a shame. If every woman in the country, or every woman in the world, that wants to lose weight and become really skinny, if they could all just have half an hour sat down with a doctor telling them exactly what's going to happen to them, I think you’d get very few of them that would carry on with it," she told Sassy Bella.

She says that she aims to be fearless. “When I was having a really rough time with everything, a close friend said to me: ‘Be fearless’,” she explained. “I lost the meaning of these words for a while and I'm working hard to get it back.”

5. Don't Be Quiet, She Says

In her memoir, Redknapp talked about what led to her divorce, and what she learned from it. She says that she is no longer afraid to say what she needs to say. “Once you run too fast, you can’t make up the ground you’ve lost. Stop, say what you need, say what you think, don’t be afraid to say what’s really going on. You don’t have to be quiet."

1. She Doesn’t Doubt Herself

Manto opened up about her life and career to Kwentuhang Pilipina. She says that she doesn’t second-guess or doubt herself. “I feel like the path that I took to get to the career that I have right now are all the steps that I needed to take. So of course you'll have doubts every now and then, but I never, I have never, you know, second guessed the path that I took for this one. So I guess this is what I'm supposed to undergo.”

2. She Creates Content People Enjoy

Manto opened up about how she approaches her influencer career to Kwentuhang Pilipina. She says that she wants to create content that people enjoy. “It's never really been a goal of mine to reach a certain number of views, a certain number of followers or a certain number of viewers per se. But it's more about me putting content that I feel like even at least one person can relate to or just anything that would make me happy.”

3. She Ignores What Others Think Of Her

Manto opened up about how she deals with insecurities to PHILStar.com. She says that she ignores what others think of her. Manto also encouraged others to do the same. "You cannot tell me bad things about myself or my flaws because I treat them as uniquely mine or what defines me…I just want you to know that there is enough space for everyone, whatever beauty you have. I think that's the very essence of what Filipina beauty is, knowing that there is space for each and every person with their own unique identities that make them beautiful."

4. She Doesn’t Feel Pressure

Manto tells PHILStar.com that she doesn’t feel pressure to appeal to society’s standards. “Going back to that pageant, life has a funny way of telling you something, making you realize that you should not be defined by their standards, and you can tell them more about different facets of yourself beyond physical beauty," she says. "I feel at that moment that it was my lowest, but I also realized that this is a wake-up situation for me that to be at my lowest is a realization of my highest point. So if I would go back, I would tell myself to not stick to the standards of other people because there will be a time when you wake up, they will be celebrating you for who you are."

5. She Swims

Manto spends a lot of time in the water, as you can see from her recent Instagram post. She shares a lot of other posts of herself at the beach or the water. Manto posted this black and white photo of the ocean, captioning it, “Back at my happy place for some peace and quiet.” She also shared this video of herself wading in the ocean in Bali. She captioned that post, “Enjoying the now.”

And I wouldn't like to be stick thin." "Once you've learned which situations affect your self-esteem, notice your thoughts about them. This includes what you tell yourself (self-talk) and how you view the situations. Your thoughts and beliefs might be positive, negative or neutral. They might be rational, based on reason or facts. Or they may be irrational, based on false ideas. Ask yourself if these beliefs are true. Would you say them to a friend? If you wouldn't say them to someone else, don't say them to yourself," says the Mayo Clinic.

Hayek is all about body-positivity, and wearing what she wants. In an interview with Glamour, she recalled a conversation with her daughter about a revealing red-carpet look she wanted to wear. “‘But honey, you see the belly,” Hayek said. “‘You see that I have a belly. And I don’t want to be sucking it in.’ And then I said, ‘You know what? Screw that. I’m 56, everything else looks good.’”

In an interview with Vogue, Hayek talked about the sexism she’s faced in Hollywood. She makes sure to speak out against these standards. "Why should we let them give us an expiration date? I think there is a lot of sexism when it comes to age. They give us a lot of deadlines that they don't have, such as [the idea that] after a certain age, you lose your beauty or nobody will want to marry you. It's incredibly unfair. I wanted to make this character, who is strong, fierce, beautiful, sexy and ready for adventure because women my age, in their mid-fifties, can still be that."

4. She Swims

Hayek loves to swim to stay in shape. She shares a bunch of posts on Instagram of herself in the water. Hayek shared these photos and one video of herself taking a swim in the ocean at sunset.

5. She’s Present

In an interview with Marie Claire, Hayak revealed some of her secrets for building confidence. “It’s about being in the present and being alive. When you’re present you forget certain things; I’m not thinking about how old I am when I wake up. I don’t even look in the mirror. Though, sometimes when I do look in the mirror I go, ‘Oh Jesus’, or I’ll think ‘How come I’m always tired?’ and I’ll remember, ‘Ah, I’m older now’. When it dawns on me, I make the effort to connect with life again. I’m just amazed that at my age I’m still working and having the best moment of my career. At this point I’m just grateful.”

From coffee perks to Pilates workouts, learn her daily habits for a balanced lifestyle.

Leonie Hanne is living her best life in Thailand – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the German model flaunts her fantastic figure in a $750 Missoni bathing suit while enjoying a boating day in the tropics. “She dreamed of a tropical adventure 🦋,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Stunning,” commented one of her followers. ”So beautiful,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Coffee

Leonie enjoys the perks of caffeine. In one of her posts from Thailand, she drinks a cup of coffee at the poolside. According to the Cleveland Clinic, drinking coffee in moderation has several benefits. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Pilates

Leonie does Pilates at the super exclusive London studio Pilates in the Clouds. Why is Pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic, the workout has many benefits, as it “strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility, resulting in improved overall health.” It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, stress, and back pain relief, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

At-Home Workouts

Leonie tries to get a workout in daily, preferably in the morning. I still try to get up early to maintain a sense of routine. I start every day with a quick at-home workout and a homemade acai bowl, before starting work on emails and content creation. I’ve been getting really into TikTok lately, it’s funny and keeps me feeling energised!” she told Arcadia.

Community

It takes a village, according to Leonie. “Community is key! The people you surround yourself with are more important than ever, as we are all trying to find ways to stay connected without being physically present. Speaking to people either on the phone or through social media can shift your mindset and motivation more than ever before,” she says.

Small, Healthy Habits

Leonie focuses on maintaining small, healthy habits. “Do something every day that brings you joy. Even if that means having something small to look forward to, like having your favourite snacks around the house or changing into an outfit that makes you feel good about yourself,” she says.

Sophie Piper is embracing island life – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Love Island beauty shows off her fantastic figure in a swimsuit during a tropical vacation at Kandima Maldives with Josh Ritchie. “Island life,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps taken at the picturesque resort. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

She Doesn't Go Under the Knife

Sophie claims she hasn’t gone under the knife. “It’s your own body, you can do what you want to,” she told Grazia, weighing in on the show’s reputation for girls getting work done. “I wouldn’t have surgery myself; I don’t want it. I’ve got such a low pain tolerance as well; I’d be squirming around.”

She Gets Her Steps In

Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Sophie loves paddle boarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and cardio. Water sports can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140-pound male and 436 calories for a female of the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

She Skis

When Sophie hits the mountains, she throws on a pair of skis. “Ski club,” she captioned a photo. Research has linked downhill skiing to several health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, the prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress, and the occurrence of memory deficits decline.

She Loves Group Fitness

“You’ve got to be body confident,” Sophie told Grazia. One of her favorite sweat methods? Group fitness. “A few gym classes can’t hurt,” she said.

She Goes Snorkeling

On her recent Maldives vacation, Sophie and Josh snorkeled in the crystal clear water. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Tammy Hembrow is a fitness influencer and expert. She has her own app, called Tammy Fit. Hembrow has a lot of challenges on her app. Recently, she advertised a challenge with a workout video on Instagram. Hembrow captioned the post, “We are 3 days into our first @tammyfitapp challenge of the year & I am more motivated than everrrrr. (Sign ups are still open if you haven’t joined yet - there’s still time to catch up!! - link in bio). Soooo happy seeing so many of my girlies (and guys) in this challenge doing it with me!! And I CANNOT wait to see everyone’s results at the end of the 8 weeks. We got thissss 💪🏼”

She Does Pulldowns

Hembrow is seen doing pulldowns in her Instagram video. Piedmont reports that pulldowns have a lot of benefits. “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.”

She Lifts Weights

Hembrow is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that using weights to workout has a lot of 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.”

She Tracks Her Meals

Hembrow likes to track her meals on her app. She talked about the benefits of this in the caption of this “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. “Make sure to take advantage of the calorie/macro tracking features in the @tammyfitapp during this challenge guys. It can be really helpful in reaching specific goals quicker. And it also can help educate you on your food choices when it comes to nutrition, ratios, hidden calories, overeating or under eating etc. honestly I’d recommend any beginner try it out just to get a good feel for how you’re fuelling your body!! I feel like when people think of ‘meal tracking’ it can be seen as something that seems restrictive or something only bodybuilders do. When in reality it can be such a helpful tool and you can learn things that will actually encourage long term habits 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

She Loves Bananas

Tammy Hebrew has a banana snack.

Hembrow is seen enjoying bananas in her “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that bananas have a lot of benefits. “A single medium-sized banana offers about 32 mg of the mineral magnesium, which fulfills around 8% to 10% of your daily magnesium requirement. Magnesium is involved in many processes in your body, including: Blood pressure. Blood sugar levels. Building proteins. Maintaining bone. Muscle function. Nerve function.”

She Loves Cottage Cheese

Tammy Hebrew's snack the contains banana and cottage cheese.
