How does she stay so fit?

1. Balance and Cheat Days

Crosby allows herself indulgences once a week. “You don't have to be stupidly disciplined,” she says. “It's about having a balance of everything. It's important to allow yourself a cheat day or two, otherwise you have more chance of quitting altogether. It's good to have that one day where you eat what you want, because then you work towards it.”

2. Healthy Breakfast Options

Crosby keeps different breakfast options in rotation so she doesn’t get bored. Her go-to meals are toast and poached eggs, fruit and yogurt, or porridge. When it comes to oatmeal, be careful to pick options with low or no added sugar. “Fiber is what's going to help slow down that digestion,” says registered dietician Beth Czerwony. “It's going to trickle that blood sugar into your skin, so you're not going to have these highs and lows. It's going to help keep you fuller longer. But it's also going to help with digestion, so you have good GI health. So looking at something that's going to be 3 grams of fiber or more per serving is going to be important.”

3. Weight Loss

It wasn’t until Crosby lost 42 lbs that she realized how unfit she had been before. “I thought that was normal until I got fit and healthy,” she says. “Losing weight isn't just about the way you look – obviously you feel better, but it's your mind and your health that changes massively. Before, I couldn't walk up a flight of stairs without getting out of breath. But after exercising for a couple of weeks, I found everything so much easier. I could run to the car without feeling like I was going to die!”

4. Postpartum Health

Crosby is detailing the ups and downs of her postpartum body after giving birth in October 2022. She has been sharing her progress on social media, hoping to inspire other new mothers of how just 20 minutes of gentle exercise a day can yield health and fitness benefits. “The goal is to inspire others and demonstrate that a fitness journey can be challenging, but ultimately rewarding,” she says. “Join me as I share my journey towards regaining my fitness, and let’s see where this journey takes us.”

5. Lots of Walking

Crosby’s workouts always include lots and lots of walking, which is a great way to get ease back into fitness after having a baby. “You can also alternate periods of brisk walking with leisurely walking,” says the Mayo Clinic. “This type of interval training has many benefits, such as improving cardiovascular fitness and burning more calories than regular walking.”

Charlotte Crosby first made waves as a cast member on the hit MTV series, Geordie Shore, a British spin-off of the US’ Jersey Shore. From there, she has also launched a fitness plan, including DVDs. Crosby also has a large following on social media, specifically Instagram. She’s currently on vacation, and shared a new photo to her stories. In it, Crosby posed by the pool in a bathing suit. She captioned it, “What a perfect little getaway with my love.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Charlotte Crosby 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 Sticks With It

Crosby shared some of her wellness tips in an interview with Closer Online. She says that consistency is an important part of fitness. “If you fall off the workout wagon, just get back on it! Don’t let all the hard work you’ve already done go to waste, just because of a few dodgy days. You can always make up for lost time.”

2. She Works Out With Others

Crosby likes to workout with her friends as a way to help her stay motivated. “Form a fitness group with your mates or on Facebook,” she advises in her Closer interview. “I love working out with the Geordie Shore girls when we’re in the house, because it helped keep me motivated. If one of us slacks, the others keep you on course.”

3. She Eats Slowly

London Celebrity Sightings - October 19, 2021Ricky Vigil M/GC Images

When it comes to eating, Crosby believes slower is better. “I used to wolf down my food in five minutes then look for pudding because I was still hungry,” she explains to Closer. “Take your time over your tea - it should take 20 minutes to eat a meal. I guarantee you won’t be hungry if you eat more slowly, because it gives your tummy time to tell your brain that you’re full.”

4. She Mixes It Up

Crosby tells Closer that she likes to switch up her workouts. “Variety is the key to life,” she says. “No one likes doing the same thing every day and exercise is no different. Shake it up a bit. My DVD has different workouts so you’re not doing the same routines day in day out.”

5. She Believes In Balance

CharlotteCrosbyCharlotte Crosby/Instagram

Crosby lives a healthy lifestyle. However, she tells NowToLove that she also believes in balance. “You don't have to be stupidly disciplined. It's about having a balance of everything. It's important to allow yourself a cheat day or two, otherwise you have more chance of quitting altogether. It's good to have that one day where you eat what you want, because then you work towards it.”

Reality star Charlotte Crosby is currently expecting her first child with her boyfriend. She just shared a stunning new photo on Instagram. In it, Crosby wore a black and white striped two piece. She captioned the post, “365 days ago I kissed my soulmate for the first time…….NOW WE HERE.” Read on to see 5 ways Charlotte Crosby 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 Time

Charlotte Crosby arrives on the red carpet during the In TheKeith Mayhew/Getty Images

Crosby revealed her approach to fitness to Express. She says that she takes her time when it comes to exercise. “My advice would be don’t be scared, don’t be overwhelmed by it all. It's all about taking everything at your own pace. You don’t need to go and do an hour workout with a load of people who are pushing you really hard. That’s not what fitness is all about. Fitness is about moving more and going at your own pace and your own fitness level and building on that. It’s not about being amazing straight away, so just go at your own pace, take it really really slow and gradually try and get better.”

2. She Works Out With Others

One of Crosby’s workout secrets is having other people to exercise with. She tells Express that this helps her stay motivated. “It doesn’t make it a chore, it just takes away that part of what you dread about exercising.”

3. She Mixes It Up

Another thing that keeps Crosby interested in fitness is doing different things. “Every day I do something different,” she tells Express. “Variation is key because sticking to the same thing over and over again gets boring and you get sick [of it].”

4. She’s Consistent

Crosby tells Express that she is very consistent. She says that she tries to do some type of physical activity each day. “I move every single day of the week, so there’s not a day when I’ll just lie on the settee all day and watch TV. Every single day I’ll be moving, so days when I haven’t done an intense workout as such I’ll always do a 45 to an hour walk and that’s still just as good exercise as anything else."

5. She Believes In Balance

When it comes to her diet, Crosby says that she believes in balance. She tells OK! Magazine, “Be realistic with your diet, rather than just avoiding sugar all together. Which, lets face it is far too hard and we all end up caving in the end. Why not just find something that is just as yummy but kinder on the hips?”

Olivia Frazer is known for her time on the hit Australian reality series, Married At First Sight. This has lead to her being an active presence on Instagram. She shares a lot of gorgeous photos on her page. This week, Frazer posed in a white two-piece swimsuit with blue dots. She received praise from her followers in the comments. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Olivia Frazer 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 Happy With Her Life

Frazer opened up about life after her divorce in an interview with Yahoo Lifestyle. She says that she is now living life on her own terms. “Now I’m on OnlyFans, I’m single, I’m on the cover of Maxim - it’s the complete opposite. I think it’s the path that I was meant to be on and I’m where I’m meant to be. Every day I wake up and I'm just so happy with my life.”

2. She’s Taking Care Of Her Mental Health

Creed III Sydney PremiereMark Metcalfe/Getty Images

Frazer tells Yahoo Lifestyle that she has started taking care of her mental health. “I still feel like there's a little bit of fine-tuning to do with my mental health, but it's the best it's been since I want to say even before MAFS started filming,” she remarks. “I'm just excited to wake up every day, which I haven’t felt for two years. Obviously the filming process was hard and then what we went through during filming was awful. And then Jackson and I, it was the wrong relationship. So being in a relationship that's not working as well as all this other stuff just really took a toll. So I think getting out of all of it, I made a very conscious choice a few months ago to just stop talking about all the drama and all the bad stuff... Unless I’m asked a direct question, I just don’t interact with it or take the bait or anything like that, and it's just serving me really well.”

3. She Got Surgery

Frazer notably lost a lot of weight in recent years. She revealed on Instagram that she decided to get weight-loss surgery as a way to do so. “Surgery [is] the last thing anybody ever wants to do. It is the last resort. It’s not fun not being able to eat like everybody else, it’s not fun to not be able to drink like everybody else.”

4. She Defends Herself

Frazer has had to defend herself due to being seen as a reality TV villain. She recently clapped back when a photo of her was taken without her consent. “I was spotted applying for a casual job at a makeup store. Absolutely disgusting because a photo was taken of me in my job interview that I did not know was being taken. It’s a huge disgusting invasion of privacy.”

5. She Swims

Frazer spends a lot of time outside. One thing she likes to do to stay in shape is going swimming. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself by the water. Frazer posted this set of photos of herself in Bali. In the first photo, she is seen taking a dip in a pool. She captioned the post, “Bali. And I might like the color green.” Frazer also shared this pool photo, captioning it, “More relaxing times.”

Chelsee Healey is truly in the Halloween spirit this year. The British actress posted photos of herself getting ready for festivities, wearing a black patterned swimsuit, with denim over the bathing suit. Healey then followed up her selfies with pictures of herself out on the town with a cocktail. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Healey 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 Her Post-Baby Body

Healey bounced back from having a baby by adopting healthy habits. “After Coco arrived my appetite is nowhere near as big, I also eat much healthier and swear by green tea and liters of water everyday,” she says. “I’d say I’m the smallest I’ve ever been in my life but the most happiest and content I guess I’ve ever been, not because I’ve lost the weight but just appreciating myself and my body much more realizing how amazing a woman’s body is.”

2. She’s An Adrenaline Junkie

Healey once bungee jumped and really enjoyed the experience. “I loved it! I was so gassed about this… I couldn't wait,” she says. “I think obviously when we went up in the bungee my head went a bit like, ‘Oh my god Chelsee, what are you actually doing?’ But honestly that was just the best experience. I loved it. I would never have done one of them off my own back, so I'm just so thankful that I got to do it… I think my adrenaline took over. Obviously when I was about to go on it I was like, ‘Oh my gosh.’ I remember going up and I was like, ‘Can I just stop?’ It was just so exciting and I had such a rush after that. It was brilliant. I'd definitely do another one.”

3. She Loves Seafood

Healey loves seafood, especially sushi (although she jokes that she can’t handle adult chopsticks). “Sushi can be a healthy choice, but it depends on the type you choose and the ingredients used,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “Oily fish, such as salmon, provides omega-3, which is an essential fatty acid and has to be obtained from your diet. The World Health Organization recommends eating 1-2 portions of oily fish a week, so sushi may be a delicious way to help reach these targets.”

4. She Embraces Her Imperfections

Healey has learned to focus on the positive and appreciate herself both inside and outside. “There’s never been a time when I’ve been fully content in my appearance, but as I’ve got older I have learnt to be happier with things,” she says. “Being a mum definitely puts life into perspective and things I used to worry about all the time just don’t feel as important now... I accept my flaws and my imperfections more now, and I appreciate myself looks-wise and how I am as a person. I don’t think I’d change anything about me now. The one thing I’m 100-per-cent happy with is my heart. My heart is perfect and that’s the important thing.”

5. She Exercises Outdoors

Healey enjoys visiting her local park for some exercise in the sunshine and fresh air. “Exercising outdoors increases our exposure to sunlight, enhancing vitamin D production, which has been linked to improving mood, promoting bone health, boosting immune system function and reducing inflammation,” says Cedric X. Bryant, PhD, FACSM. “Being in nature boosts feelings of well-being and life satisfaction. In fact, simply being outside and breathing fresh air has been shown to reduce stress and enhance relaxation. Research shows that being in nature, also called forest bathing, reduces stress and enhances relaxation. Exercising, particularly outdoors, drives tremendous mental health benefits, ranging from reducing depression and anxiety to enhancing self-esteem and mood. Combine that with the physiological benefits of exercise, and you'll see greater levels of joy in your life.”

She says that she knows her body really well, and she knows what she has to do to get the results she wants. “I’m like a body scientist,” Banks writes. “I know how to make myself thick and then skinny when I want. This is possible if you don’t have any health conditions.”

2. She Doesn’t Have A Set Routine

In the same Instagram post, Banks revealed what she likes to do to stay healthy. She says that she doesn’t have any routine in particular, and that she does different things when she wants different results. “Just a little focus, tweak to my eating habits, & added way more walking. Now I’m 133. Whenever I feel like getting thick again, I’ll add more protein and carbs in moderation.”

3. She Embraces Her Body

Banks is all about body positivity. She says that she embraces every part of her body, even the parts that aren’t all that great. In this stunning Instagram photo, Banks posed outside in a bikini, and called out her body shamers. She wrote, “Yes I got cellulite, stretch marks, a loud mouth, and your man. #BodyPositivity.”

4. She’s Open About Her Plastic Surgeries

While Banks embraces her body, she’s also not afraid to admit that she’s had work done. In her Instagram stories, Banks revealed that she has gotten a breast reduction, implants, and Kenalog injections, and talked about her reasons for doing so. “That worked for a while and my scars did get a lot better but over the years I noticed my implants bottoming out. That came from having too much breast tissue removed during my reduction.”

5. She Spends Time In The Water

Banks loves to spend time outside. One of her favorite things to do is go for a swim in the ocean or the pool. Banks has posted several poolside photos and videos on Instagram and TikTok. She posted this video, captioning it, “Self care Friday. Who wants to come with me to the pool next time?”

Alice De Bortoli doesn’t just light up Instagram with her stunning fashion and effortless style—she also shares the secrets behind her enviable beach-ready physique. The Italian influencer keeps her followers in the loop when it comes to fitness, beauty, and wellness, proving that looking and feeling great is all about consistency. From skincare rituals to core-sculpting workouts, De Bortoli’s daily habits make it clear that staying in shape is about more than just hitting the gym. Whether she’s cooking up homemade meals, breaking a sweat, or showing off a fresh new look, she’s all about feeling her best from the inside out. Here are five of her go-to habits for maintaining a strong, confident, and glowing presence all year long.

She Takes Care Of Her Skin

De Bortoli has impressive skin. Naturally, she takes care of it on a regular basis. De Bortoli shared this video on Instagram sharing her skincare routine. She captioned it, “The secret to perfect skin? Here is my step by step routine! ✨💦🎀 What product can you absolutely not live without?”

She Changed Her Hair Color

De Bortoli recently changed her hair color. She explained why in the caption of this Instagram post. “The good thing about this color is that it does not require frequent touch-ups and it easily adapts to natural hair growth, it is versatile and can enhance any body and face shape 🧡for those who are tired of blonde or brown, bronde is the solution to change harmony without distortion 🤍for those who have a fair complexion, the most golden tone is recommended 🤎 for the dark complexion, on the other hand, more ash brown ❤️ 🔥what can I say... For me the bronde conquered, and what do you think?”

She Cooks

De Bortoli likes to cook, and she was taught to do so by her grandmother. She shared this video on Instagram of herself and her grandmother cooking together. De Bortoli captioned it, “Grandparents are wealth in society, my grandmother loves to cook and do it with her since I was a child. She has always inspired my creativity, patience, discipline and order but above all traditions, history, and the concreteness of nature's gifts. The greatest teaching my grandparents passed on to me is respect for people, the environment, animals and the kitchen... Today together we made Carnival Frittelle, an easy, quick dessert that adults and kids love. The ingredients are few and simple (but of high quality) and, trust me, the result is guaranteed: nice round but above all soft and tasty.”

She Works Her Abs

De Bortoli shared this video of herself working out on Instagram. In it, she is seen doing core exercises like sit-ups. Core exercises are extremely important. The Mayo Clinic says, “Strong core muscles make it easier to do many activities. When your core muscles are strong, it's easier to swing a golf club, get a glass from the top shelf and bend down to tie your shoes. Strong core muscles help athletes, such as runners. That's because weak core muscles can lead to more fatigue, less endurance and injuries.”

She Works Out With Others

In the previous Instagram video, De Bortoli is seen working out with a friend. Better Health says that this has a lot of benefits. “You’re less likely to get bored when you have a workout buddy, especially a friend. While you’re catching up, having a laugh, encouraging each other, you’re also getting healthier. It’s a win-win. Chatting to a friend during exercise and breaks can help time pass quickly too. You’ll have more options as well, such as a game of tennis or squash.”

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.”
