It might be almost winter, but Mexican singer Cynthia Rodriguez is reminiscing about time spent by the ocean in the sunshine. The TV star posted a series of photos of herself wearing a brown bathing suit, relaxing against a background of blue seas and skies. “The days when we went to the sea, which gave us peace of mind... ❤️,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Rodriguez 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. Treadmill Workouts

Rodriguez loves incorporating treadmill workouts into her exercise routine. “For many runners, the quickest way to reap substantial benefits is to change their running cadence,” says Jack McNamara, M.S.c., C.S.C.S., NASM-CPT, and a clinical exercise physiologist who specializes in coaching running techniques. “That translates to less impact on the lower back, knees, and hips and a reduced risk of injury.”

2. Low Carb Snacks

Rodriguez enjoys low carb snacks like ham and celery after a workout. “Although celery has a high water content, it contains numerous vitamins and minerals, including potassium and calcium, which are important for heart health,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “It also contains folate and vitamin K, both of which are required for the formation of red blood cells and effective blood clotting. Celery is also a good source of protective plant compounds called flavonoids, which have anti-inflammatory and protective effects on the cardiovascular system. Diets high in fibrous foods like celery are associated with a lower risk of heart disease.”

3. She Lifts Weights

“You don't have to feel like it, you just have to go for it. You got this,” Rodriguez captioned a video of herself lifting heavy weights. “Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities,” says the Mayo Clinic. “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.”

4. Boxing Workouts

Rodriguez enjoys high-intensity boxing workouts with a sparring partner. “Boxing requires the full body to move,” says trainer Anthony Char. “From staying on your toes to engaging the core muscles or throwing a jab or a cross, there’s a lot to think about, which makes it great for training both the mind and body. It’s also a great calorie burner and can often burn more calories than cardio workouts such as running (opens in new tab). It’s a fun alternative to traditional cardio workouts like HIIT or swimming.”

5. Squats and Planks

Rodriguez frequently does squats and planks in her workouts. “Squats are beneficial for everyone,” says certified personal trainer Chris Gagliardi. “From elite athletes to older adults and women during the postpartum period. Including squats as part of your exercise routine will help to ensure that you have the required muscular strength and endurance to continue to do the things you enjoy in life. Squatting is considered a bend-and-lift movement which is one of the five primary movement patterns that we use throughout daily life. Consider that every time you stand from a sitting position, or squat down to pick an object up off the floor, you are doing a squat. Squats are something we do often, and it is important to have the appropriate muscular fitness and power to perform squats throughout your activities of daily living.”

1. She’s Taking A Break

Rodríguez decided to take a break from her career to focus on other things. She explained why in an interview. "I think that after 17 years of non-stop, it was time to take a break to spend more time with my family, take those trips that I had been waiting for so long…We have to follow our intuition, enjoy each day and each stage of our life." Rodríguez also says that she is also using this time to work on projects.

2. She Focuses On The Positive

Rodríguez is all about positivity. She talked about this in the caption of this this Instagram post “I tongue out negative thoughts, apathy, and bad moods,” she writes. “Complicated days, of taking care of each other a lot, of missing a lot and also a great opportunity to love each other beautiful.Sending you hugs, from the ones that make you feel like everything is going to be alright.”

3. She Works Out At Home

Rodríguez makes sure to workout on a regular basis. She sometimes shares workout videos on Instagram. Rodríguez doesn’t always go to the gym to exercise. In this video, she is seen doing at-home workouts. Rodríguez does lower body workouts like leg lifts and fire hydrants while kneeling on a chair, and one leg squats from sitting in the chair. She captioned the post, “Let's work out together, it's 3 minutes of exercise from your home in a chair, you can do it.

4. She Weight Trains

Another thing Rodríguez does to stay in shape is weight train. She shared this workout video on Instagram. In it, Rodríguez is seen doing deadlifts with a barbell. She captioned the post, “You don't have to feel like it, you just have to go for it. You got this.” The Mayo Clinic recommends weight and strength training to stay in shape. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories.”

5. She Spends Time Outside

Rodríguez spends a lot of time outside. She shares a lot of outdoor photos on her Instagram. In this set of photos, Rodríguez is seen meditating on a balcony overlooking nature. She captioned the post, “Thank you God, Thank you Mother Earth. 🙏🏻🌎 Days of peace, reflection and much love.Encontré esta foto en mis recuerdos.”

Roselyn Sánchez, the actress and TV presenter, is missing her late pooch. “Miss you Maraca 💕🌈,” she captioned a photo of her in a bathing suit, holding the dog. “I remember this day like it was today… 15 years ago, I met you the day before. You were 11 weeks old. Puerto Rico… Te pienso tranquila y feliz en el cielo 💫” (Rough translation: “I think of you calm and happy in heaven.”) How does she stay so fit?

1. She Consciously Stays Fit

"I think [staying fit] is a conscious decision. Once you have kids, the body changes," she told her friend Eva Longoria in Hola. "I'm 46 years old; I'm still in this business. People have a perception of you, of how you need to look, and it's a lot of pressure. I’d rather be home and do nothing, but I can't." She added: "And now it's not even about the physique. I became a mother late in life -- I had Sebella at 38 and Dylan at 44 -- and I want to be as healthy as possible for as long as possible. I owe it to my kids to stay young and vibrant."

2. She Lives Her Life Respectfully

How does Sánchez stand tall? “I do it by living my life in a very respectful way,” she has said, “to serve as an inspiration to all those young Latinas and Puerto Rican girls that see me as a testament that you can do it. You can leave the country and succeed and work hard and have a clear goal as a Hispanic. I’m making it happen.”

3. She Stretches

Sánchez is a former dancer and knows the value of a good stretch. Try also ending each workout with a foam roller. “Foam rolling is one of the best ways to keep your muscles loose and your body mobile. It stretches areas that are hard to hit otherwise (like long tendons) and releases muscle tension throughout the body, helping you recover for your next workout,” says personal trainer Mark Langowski.

4. Pets are Good For Your Mental Health

"Pets continue to be an optional part of our modern lives. Research shows that our desire to connect with our pets can be a valuable asset for those struggling with physical and emotional pain; mental illnesses, such as depression and anxiety; and environmental factors, such as loneliness," says Jennifer Wickham, licensed professional counselor at Mayo Clinic Health System. "Though not a replacement for social interaction with people, pets do provide social support and stress reduction," adds Wickham in the Mayo Clinic. "We know, through medical research, that increased levels of the stress hormone cortisol slows immune response to injury sites. When this occurs, the healing process can be delayed causing increased recovery times. Developing strategies for reducing stress in everyday life and in health crisis situations has been a recent focus for all."

5. She’s Never Had a Nip or Tuck

Sánchez says she’s never had plastic surgery. What to expect if you’re considering it? “Anticipate improvement, not perfection. If you expect cosmetic surgery to turn you into a movie star, you're bound to be disappointed. Don't count on surgery to save a rocky relationship, gain a promotion or improve your social life,’ says the Mayo Clinic. Also: “Cosmetic surgery isn't covered by most health insurance plans. The cost varies depending on the procedure, ranging from hundreds to thousands of dollars. Also, consider the cost of any follow-up care or additional corrective procedures.”

1. She Decompresses

Rodríguez gave an interview to Nightmarish Conjurings to promote her movie Centigrade. She says that she has to decompress after shooting days. “It was very very difficult. It’s not like you can turn it off, turn off the characters. You have to go home and continue the diet. What I would do was watch reality TV shows to try to get out of my head because I was so frightened and so scared of my job that I would just try not to think about anything. So, that’s what I would do. It was hard. You had to have a partner, of someone you’d trust to be able to do that.”

2. She Wants Inclusivity

Netflix and Elle Celebrate Latinas In HollywoodPresley Ann/Getty Images

Rodríguez wants to increase the amount of diversity in the movie and TV industry. “Well, I have got to say being a Latino woman, a Latinx woman, it’s very difficult for me to even land a lead role in a movie,” she tells Nightmarish Conjurings. “Let alone being considered a Naomi so, this to me was a feat because I was able to be a lead of a movie. But also, I wanted and I feel like I deserved the opportunity. And I hope that changes. I do still feel it’s not there. Hollywood is not there yet. They have to be more inclusive and they have to consider us as being a part of the American population. I should have no problems in getting a Naomi role, but I did. It was a challenge. It is a challenge for me to get there. So, I pray that it changes. That there [are] more opportunities for someone like me and the door is completely open and it is all about just your talent. Not because you are filling a quota.”

3. She Wants To Be Challenged

Man,Hand,Holding,Card,With,The,Text,Impossible,,Cutting,TheShutterstock

Rodríguez opened up about her ideal qualities in a man to Muscle and Fitness. She says that she wants to be challenged in life. “I don’t like it when a guy lets me win. I think that’s stupid and lame. I like a guy who gives me a challenge, because if I’m going to win I’m going to beat you when you’re giving it your all. Especially in video games.”

4. She Loves Green Juice

Rodríguez makes sure to eat healthy. One thing she likes to do is drink green juice. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself enjoying a green smoothie. Rodríguez captioned the post, “Wash your face. Drink your greens. Do some gua sha. Block the haters. Stay hydrated Mami.”

5. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Rodríguez is all about skincare. She wrote this essay for POPSugar about the importance of skincare. “It's so important to take the time to treat your skin. We always talk about that red carpet glow — how do actresses do it? It's really about loving the skin we are in, but…Are we loving it like we're supposed to? Taking a few minutes to pamper your skin might seem like the last thing you want to add to your already busy to-do list, and it really does take time, but your skin deserves it!”

1. She Has Healthy Habits

Don't,Smoke,SignShutterstock

Sánchez opened up about her healthy habits in an interview with HOLA! Magazine. “I’ve never been a drinker or a smoker. I don’t know for sure if this is the reason why I look younger. Doctors claim that leading a healthy life consisting of good habits like eating healthy and getting enough rest is fundamental to good health. I’ve never gone to bed with my makeup on, but I’m not a big fan of beauty products and I’ve never had plastic surgery. I practice a bit of discipline and I’m good to myself.”

2. She Wants To Share Her Culture’s Stories

Sánchez tells The A.V. Club that she wants to give opportunities to other Hispanic and Latino actors and workers in the film and TV industry. “I have an immense passion to produce and to direct, especially Latino content. I take it as a responsibility. I’ve been so lucky that it’s time to pay it forward, [especially] if I can do it in Puerto Rico and employ Puerto Ricans. This country is so unique in terms of our history. It’s a Commonwealth with an ever-evolving relationship with the States. Puerto Ricans are very divided when it comes to our political status. And as a place to shoot, it’s paradise. We have a little bit of everything. We have rainforests! So in terms of production value and history, we have so much to offer. So with HSI: Puerto Rico, there’s so many cop procedural franchises that do so well, [so] how is it possible that there’s not one here? That was the whole idea behind it.”

3. She Stays True To Herself

Sánchez opened up to HOLA! Magazine about how she approaches her career. She says that she wants to be honest and true to herself. “I’ve never had terrible problems on a personal or professional level, and I’ve always made an effort to keep my career intact,” Sánchez explained. “I had a very normal upbringing, from good and humble people in Puerto Rico. My mother taught me to be of strong character, but never mischievous. I’ve always had a good head on my shoulders and made sure my career was nice and clean so it can serve as an inspiration to others. I dislike people who have successful careers based on gossip and scandals.”

4. She’s Grateful

Sánchez tells HOLA! Magazine that she’s extremely grateful for her career. “I can’t complain. That would be ungrateful of me. I thought that it would be easier than it actually was. I’ve lived through so much happiness but also lots of tears. But it’s like anything in life, if I were to retire tomorrow and write a book about my life, it would be 90% gratitude. Gratitude towards God, life, my angels…Because I’ve worked consistently for 25 years.”

5. She Dances

Sánchez shared some of her favorite exercises to HOLA! Magazine. She says that she likes to practice ballet to keep herself in shape. “I exercise a lot. I’ve been dancing ballet since I was four, and have been practicing it constantly throughout the years. It’s very important for me to keep moving and stay active.”

For Hewitt, fitness is all about variety. “I try to switch it up a bit,” she told OK! Magazine. “I’ve found that if every week I do something different it tricks my muscles into not getting used to doing any one thing. I’ve been doing pilates, I’ve been doing yoga, I’ve done just plain old walking. I wear 10 pound weights on my ankles while I’m working just so that as I’m moving during the day I’m constantly building muscle. It’s not great for your back but I’m doing it anyway. I do a booty workout thing that I just did for Shape, which was really fun. And I do Zumba. I have DVDs and I dance around like a crazy person in my house.”

She Builds Confidence

Over the past few years, Sydney Sweeney has become one of America’s sweethearts with celebrated roles in everything from hit HBO shows Euphoria and White Lotus to big-screen movies Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Anyone But You. In addition to her impressive acting ability, the star is a total bombshell and has one of the fittest figures in Hollywood. Here are the top 5 habits that help her stay fit at 27.

Water Skiing

Sydney has been water skiing since she was a toddler. “The moment I could walk, my mom put me on what’s called a U-board to learn how to ski,” she told Women’s Health. “I remember that whenever we would go by the docks of my grandma’s or my cousin’s house, I’d wave. I felt so cool because I could take off one hand. That’s my earliest memory of skiing, but I’ve been doing it as long as I can remember. It’s my favorite.” How does it help her achieve her amazing body? “It’s a lot of upper body strength, it’s balance, it’s core, it’s legs—you get tired really fast,” she says. “I see such a change in my body after an entire summer of [skiing]. My arms are stronger, more sculpted. My abs are rock solid. But I never look at it as a workout because it is so much fun,” she said.

Morning Workouts

Sydney mixes up her exercise routine, but likes to get workouts over with early in the day. “I like to work out in the morning, so I’ll either go for a run or I’ll go to Solidcore,” says Sydney. The high-intensity, low-impact Pilates-inspired workout “makes me feel so strong, but also elongated,” Sydney said about her sweat sessions. “I feel so good afterwards.”

Self-Care

Sydney engages in self-care activities. “I love to paint, and I love to read,” she said. “Those are the activities that are just for me.” One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years than those who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

She Walks and Hikes

One of the ways she treats her anxiety is by spending time outdoors with her dog, Tank. She takes him on walks or hikes. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Mariana relies on old-school strength training to keep her body toned. “Training till failure instead of reps + taking my ab routine up a notch by incorporating weighted exercises,” she wrote about one of her workout tactics. “I can feel my muscles being challenged and am in tune with my movements.” According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

  • Develop strong bones
  • Manage your weight
  • Enhance your quality of life
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills

Other healthy habits? “Prioritizing digestion,” she writes in the same post. “Making sure I get enough fiber & starting off every morning with a juice cleanse. This has helped me feel so much better everyday.” She also gets regular blood work done. “So important to check your levels and know what’s going on in your body routinely! Don’t skip the doc apts, always better to be preventative.”

Hiking

Mariana enjoys hiking. “Elevation therapy,” she captioned a post from one of her fitness adventures. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance
  • Improving your heart health
  • Decreasing the risk of some respiratory issues

Mariana does reformer Pilates. “POV: Stepping into the prettiest torture chamber,” she wrote across a video of herself at the studio. 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.

Emsculpt NEO

Mariana recently got an aesthetic body treatment, Emsculpt NEO. “I’ve heard all the rage about the benefits to spot reducing fat & toning muscle so I had to give it a try to target those pesky lower abs. It was a 10/10 & a great addition to my workout routine,” she wrote.
