1. She Bodybuilds

Charlotte lifts heavy weights. “I just turned 35, and I’m like, I want to be in the best shape of my life,” she says. “I’ve done CrossFit and I was really into running in college, but right now I love bodybuilding,” she told Muscle & Fitness about her new workout obsession.

2. She Also Does Cardio and HIIT

Charlotte mixes up her routine. She breaks up her bodybuilding with regular cardio and HIIT circuits for 3 days per week. “I’ll cycle with an app where we do 20 seconds on, and 20 seconds off, or I’ll ride around the park. We’ll do pull ups, dips and push ups before we start the workout,” she told Muscle & Fitness.

3. She Makes Nutrition a Priority

Charlotte also prioritizes nutrition. She eats five meals per day. “It’s about portion control,” she told Muscle & Fitness. “It depends on what your goals are.” An average breakfast would be protein enriched oatmeal. Then, for lunch, she might eat steak with two tortillas and cactus followed by chicken with half a cup of rice, cucumbers, and lettuce for dinner.

4. She Has a Workout Buddy

Charlotte has a workout buddy: Her husband, All Elite Wrestling star Andrade El Idolo. The two regularly work out together, sharing their couple sessions on social media. Having a workout buddy makes exercise more fun and helps keep you accountable.

5. She Cheats

“I love ice cream, chocolate, cheeseburgers, and tacos, but I have developed a plan that I can enjoy food and not worry about it being labeled bad or not healthy,” Charlotte told Food & Beverage. However, she makes healthier choices, like eating a cheeseburger on a whole wheat bun and adding avocado. “There is always a way to make the food you love enjoyable, healthy, and a part of your dining routine if you commit to it,” she said.

1. Wrestling Motivated Her to Prioritize Health and Fitness

“I’ll be honest I was not an athletic child growing up! I was in 4 choirs, drama club, and German club. I wasn’t the fastest or the strongest but after high school, I wanted to change and improve my health and body when I fell in love with wrestling,” Scarlett told Fitness Gurls. “It took a lot of time and consistency to get to where I am today. I think too often people labor under the notion that either a person is athletic or they are not and there’s no way to overcome that. But it’s a myth.”

2. She Works Out Four Times a Week

Scarlett exercises a lot. “I work out at least four times a week focusing mostly on lower body and glutes for the majority of those days. I dedicate at least one day for upper body so my legs have a chance to rest,” she told Fitness Gurls. “I also do fasted cardio a few days a week in the morning for 30 minutes, usually just a power walk around the neighborhood.”

3. She Hikes

Scarlett loves to hike. She recently spent her birthday up in the mountains of Sedona, Arizona without a phone signal, getting her sweat on. “Hiking is one of the best ways to get exercise. No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between,” says the National Parks Service.

4. She Practices Martial Arts

Scarlett loves to get her fight on, but not only when she is wrestling! She is a big fan of martial arts. “Thanks for the killer cardio sesh today @imazakidojo 💪🥋 #kyokushin #martialarts #chicago,” she captioned a snap of her fighting session.

5. She Does Ab Work

Scarlett’s flat abs aren’t the product of sitting around on the couch. She does a ton of ab work. In this Instagram video she does situps with a medicine ball, tossing it to her trainer after each sit up. Ouch! "An exciting alternative to dumbbell exercises, medicine ball training is versatile, cost-effective and simple to teach, and it's time-efficient because it requires multiple body parts to work in harmony. Using just one weighted ball, you can help your training clients or class participants improve fitness, strength, posture, movement mechanics, athletic skills and more," says ACE Fitness.

Georgia Steel, the Love Island Star, just posed in a swimsuit, and her fans went bonkers accordingly. “🦄💕🦋☀️🌸,” she captioned the colorful image.

1. She Focuses On Herself

After Steel ended her romance with her Love Island co-star, Callum Izzard, she decided to focus on herself. She said on FUBAR Radio, “I just want some time now to just focus on myself and I’m not really wanting to rush into anything. I’m just wanting to take every day as it comes!” “Expectations help you plan for what's coming up and can make you feel excited about the future,” says the Mayo Clinic. “But they can also lead to disappointment and frustration when your expectations aren't met and your hopes are dashed. And when they involve another person, misaligned expectations can diminish the quality of relationships.”

2. She Rolls With The Punches

Steel tells FUBAR Radio that she doesn’t let things bring her down. Instead, she just embraces whatever life throws at her. “I’m a good believer in everything happens for a reason,” she says. “I’m just rolling with it.” “Letting go of certain expectations can be hard. But it doesn't mean lowering them. There's a difference. You're not saying it will never be; you're saying this is where things are at right now,” says the Mayo Clinic.

3. She Goes Swimming

Steel loves to go swimming as a way to stay in shape. Her Instagram is full of photos of herself by the pool and in the water. She posted this set of photos of herself at a beach in Dubai. She also posted this photo of herself by the pool, captioning it, “You wanna be part of this vibe.”

4. She Has Experienced Loneliness

“Before Love Island I was a student making dinner off £2 but now I have a lovely TV, glass lights and a big mirror in a beautiful flat, my life has completely changed. But one thing I must say is that money does not buy happiness. The last few weeks I have been the lowest I have ever been since leaving the villa. Your highs are high but your lows are very low. It is a different lifestyle. I could be filming for the day and surrounded by people saying my name but then I go back to my empty flat on my own and it hits me,” she said after leaving Love Island, according to the Sun.

5. She Works Hard and Rests Hard

“I get up at 11 if I can, honestly, I am not a morning person at all, but I'm funny. Like I'll have days where I just wanna chill, which I've literally just got back into now because I never used to be able to have chill days. And at the moment now, I think it's really important to schedule them chill days in, just for yourself mentally, physically, everything. I just think you need some time to just focus on yourself. Otherwise it can get a bit too much, but I do love working when I get into it. Boom, boom, boom, boom,” she told On Demand Entertainment.

Charlotte Flair, a professional wrestler with WWE and daughter of the legendary Ric Flair, has made a name for herself both inside and outside the ring. In August, Flair shared glimpses of her month on Instagram, where she was seen enjoying boating, hitting the gym, and traveling. She captioned the post, “August was cute.” Known for her dedication to fitness, Flair stays committed to her health and wellness routines, even while on the go. From meal planning to keeping hydrated, Flair’s lifestyle habits reflect her commitment to staying at the top of her game both mentally and physically.


1. She Meal Plans

Flair makes sure to eat healthy. When she travels, she makes sure to bring meals with her. “I stay in a Marriott hotel that offers a kitchen,” she told Food & Beverage Magazine. “If I leave on a Thursday, I will pack 20 to 25 meals with what I call my very big, oversized lunchbox. I will pack items such as grilled chicken and broccoli, quesadillas with chicken, and my favorite of steak and red peppers.”

2. She’s Kind To Herself

Flair shared the secrets behind her success with Muscle & Fitness. “It’s about being kind to yourself,” says Flair. “How you talk to yourself really matters. I never believed that I could be on TV, or be a performer, or any of those things … why did I tell myself that for so many years? And now, here I am, the most decorated women’s champion of all-time. Why do we tell ourselves that we can’t do something? It’s because we are scared of it. So, do what you are scared of. That biggest fear that you have…do that!”

3. She Works Her Entire Body

Flair shared some of her workout secrets with The Dallas Morning News. She says that she makes sure to work her entire body. “I have leg day, back, arms. Today was a leg day. I did eight different exercises, then four sets of 15. My least favorite is chest. My favorite is legs. I have really, really broad shoulders and am really muscular up top so I don't need to bench press that much. I've developed the muscles I want to. For me, I go to the gym for maintenance."

4. She Uses The Treadmill

Flair likes to use the treadmill to stay in shape. She even has a routine, which she shared with The Dallas Morning News. “I'll go 20 minutes on the treadmill, 30 seconds at speed 10, hop off for 30 seconds, hop back on for 30. You burn more fat or use more carbs when your heart rate is up and down. Your body has to work harder."

5. She Stays Hydrated

Flair makes sure to stay hydrated each day. “I stay hydrated with a gallon of water,” she tells Us Weekly. Harvard Health states that drinking enough water is very important. “Drinking enough water each day is crucial for many reasons: to regulate body temperature, keep joints lubricated, prevent infections, deliver nutrients to cells, and keep organs functioning properly. Being well-hydrated also improves sleep quality, cognition, and mood.”

Adding a playful pun to her caption, she wrote, “Never tyre’d of a good beach workout.”
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.

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.”
