Danielle uses her own before-and-afters to stay motivated. “The picture on the right I took at the gym last week. I’ve cut 42Ibs of body fat and I feel the healthiest I’ve ever been. I feel proud of what I’ve achieved and it’s been so easy,” she wrote in one post. Another way she motivates herself is by partaking in challenges, sharing about them on social media. “Following a simple nutrition plan.

3. Her Diet Is Healthy

Danielle maintains a healthy diet. “I love to make a salad for lunch, lots of people think salads are boring for lunch but that because they’re not putting love into it. I’ll make chicken & avocado with lettuce cucumber and I’ll add pomegranate with and like to experiment with adding different seeds making my own healthy salad dressing. I also have tuna and mixed seafood salads. For evening meals I love fish so lots of salmon fillets and sea bass with vegetables and sweet potato mash. I also love to make chicken and prawn stir fry,” she told Women Fitness.

4. She Works Out in the AM

Danielle likes to exercise first thing in the morning. Early Morning Workout,” she captioned this snap. “I forgot how good it feels when you actually put yourself through a good workout.”

Sporadic diet and exercise changes aren’t going to get you in great shape for the long haul, per Danielle. “This is a not a diet and definitely not a quick fix I’ve lost my baby weight healthy and over a good period of time,” she wrote in a post. “This is a lifestyle change and if you think the time is right for you please drop me a #DM and I will be more than happy to discuss the exact plan I followed.”

1. She Meditates

Danielle is all about getting her zen on. “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 quoted David Lynch as saying in a recent post.

2. She Drinks

Danielle, who has been open about suffering from uterine fibroids, prioritizes her gut health. One way she does this is by drinking Kombucha.”I always understood the importance of probiotics but now more than ever I’m focusing on staying positive and being proactive with my healing. This is my personal experience so please follow your own journey based on your doctors recommendations. Each healing journey is unique,” she wrote.

3. She Swims

Danielle spends a lot of time swimming in the ocean. “Throwing it back to a sunny day in my favorite place,” she captioned a recent post. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, the CDC says. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.

4. She Takes Baths

Danielle also shares a lot of photos of herself soaking in the tub. Baths, which have been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression, are an easy way to interject self-care into your routine. One recent study even found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.

5. She Paddleboards

Danielle enjoys paddleboarding in the ocean. “Soaking up ALL the energy from that big battery in the sky!” she wrote in the caption of a photo of herself out in the ocean. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio. The water sport can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140 pound male and 436 for a female the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

When it comes to acting, Harold wants to represent people. During her time on Eastenders, her character developed a brain tumor. She opened up about what this was like to The One Show. “It’s been a massive responsibility to be given this storyline by the show,” she said. Just because it’s affected so many people. Especially me starting the story, I didn’t realise just how many that it does and how little awareness there is and how little funding there actually is for brain tumour research.”

3. She Hikes

Harold loves to spend time outside. She does a lot of outdoor activities to stay in shape. One thing Harold likes to do is go hiking. While on a trip to Greece, she made sure to hike through the local spots. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself on top of a rock. She captioned the post, “Take me back.”

4. She Swims

Harold captioned it, “I need some sun.” Healthdirect.gov reports that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming is a sport that you can do in a squad or independently, at any time of year. Being low-impact, swimming is a great option for people recovering from injury. Swimming has many health benefits including increasing your fitness, muscle strength and wellbeing.”

5. She Spends Time Outside In Different Places

Harold spends a lot of time outside. Her Instagram is full of photos of herself outside. Harold also travels a lot, and goes to a lot of different places.

Charlbi Dean, the South African actor you may recognize from Black Lightning and An Interview With God, is in the spotlight and loving it. Dean is going to appear in the upcoming film The Triangle of Sadness, co-starring Woody Harrelson, which just premiered to acclaim at the Cannes Film Festival.

Read on to see 5 ways Charlbi Dean 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 Goes Hiking

Dean loves to go hiking as a way to stay in shape. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself hiking with a friend. She captioned the photo, “The hike back the day after took a little longer than on the way down.. The wine & s'mores may have had something to do with it.”

2. She Does Her Own Stunts

When Dean is acting on Black Lightning, she doesn’t always need a stuntwoman. She revealed on Instagram that she is working on learning her own stunts for the role. Dean posted this photo of herself learning martial arts. She captioned the photo, “Kicking ass and taking names!!! Thanks to the awesome stunt team for working me so hard and teaching me new tricks everyday!”

3. She Boxes

In order to do some of her own stunts, Dean had to learn a lot of new skills. One thing she did was boxing. She posted this photo of herself at the gym with a trainer. She captioned the photo, “What didn’t kill me, made me a weirdo.”

Dean loves to go to the beach. She posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself in Cape Town, South Africa. While she was there, she made sure to spend time by the water.

Dean is unafraid to speak her mind, and is a proud feminist. In this video interview with Next Management, she talked about double standards in the industry and society. “I always thought that if I spoke loud, people would feel uncomfortable. If I said what was on my mind, it would make people feel uncomfortable. Especially as a woman, too often we have to be quiet, and mind people. And what ends up happening is you have a whole bunch of people who are minded, but never end up speaking their mind. I don’t think you should even be apologetic for who you are.”

Bebe Rexha is in Hawaii and it feels like we’re there with her. The singer (and actress, who appeared in Queenpins) has posted photos of herself relaxing and dancing on a boat, swimming next to a waterfall, posing like a model and joking around with Instagram filters. To paraphrase one of her songs, baby, I'm jealous of the pictures that you take. How does she stay so fit while having so much fun? Read on to see 7 ways Bebe Rexha 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 All About Body Positivity

“I was in Florida doing WWE Wrestlemania. The day I flew in, I had a little time off to go to the pool. I said to my manager, ‘Will you just take a video of me?’ I just wanna see what I look like. And when she played me back to the video, I said, I'm kind of, to me, it's okay to have a little moving parts and pieces and the little indentations—it's sexy to me. That's sexy. We were never really taught that. Like how to love ourselves and how to love imperfections,” she told Access Hollywood.

2. She Does Leg Day

"Time for legs," Rexha wrote in an Instagram Story chronicling her lower body workout. Smart choice. The largest muscles are in your lower body, and thus they burn the most fat. Your backside if the biggest source of myokines, which can do amazing things. Some help increase fat-burning in both the liver and skin tissue; others improve the function of the vascular system. Some improve the immune response; still others help our digestive system by improving communication between the pancreas and intestines. There’s even some evidence that myokines released through exercise may influence cancer cell growth.

3. She Mixes Up Her Workouts

Bebe knows the value of a good sweat session. Here’s a perfect 4 minute workout for you to try at home: Perform burpees for 20 seconds. Don’t worry about counting reps—just set a timer and get as many as you can. Afterward, rest 10 seconds, and then repeat for four minutes. Over time, you can progress the length of the work interval, but keep the ratio of work to rest at two to one (so if you build up to doing burpees for 30 seconds, rest 15 seconds between sets).

4. This is “Key for Me”

62nd Annual GRAMMY Awards – Red CarpetEmma McIntyre/Getty Images

“I will say that sometimes when I’m really tired, and I don’t have time to wash my face, I have a little trick. It's actually something I learned from a makeup artist back when I worked in retail and sold perfume. He’s like, “Listen, if you’re super tired and you can’t even wash your face, and you just use a makeup wipe, the one thing you should still always do is moisturize.” So, sometimes when I’m really exhausted, I don’t really go in with the soap and water. I know it’s not the greatest, but I’ll just use a couple of face wipes and then moisturize my skin really well. That’s key for me!” she told WhoWhatWear.

5. She Was Diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder

“For the longest time, I didn’t understand why I felt so sick. Why I felt lows that made me not want to leave my house or be around people and why I felt highs that wouldn’t let me sleep, wouldn’t let me stop working or creating music. Now I know why,” she said on Twitter, revealing her bipolar diagnosis. “I was very fearful,” she told Self magazine. “I didn’t want to think there was something wrong with me.” “My mom would call it code red,” Rexha said. “A day before [my period started], I would feel like my world was ending ... I would get into these funks and be really depressed and not want to leave my house.”

"“That was my worst fear all my life: going crazy,” she told Self. “I felt like me opening up to my fans was me finally saying, ‘I’m not going to be imprisoned by this.’ And maybe it’ll make somebody not feel imprisoned, in that moment, if they feel like they’re going through a rough time. That’s why I decided to really open up and to free myself from that.”

On Instagram, Hewitt revealed the secret behind her impressive eyebrows. "I have been using this product and I'm noticing people bringing up my brows. I don't have anything on them today really, except this product, but it's the Rare Beauty lifting gel stuff. I mean, Selena, 'thank you' is all I can say. I love it, so I'm going to put it up so that you know what it is, but that's what it is. That is the brow lifting that people are talking about. That's all I got."

She Does a Variety of Workouts

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

Hewitt tells People that she wants to build her confidence up. “I think I’m a work in progress,” she admits. “[But] I feel it’s so much better than [it was] a year-and-a-half ago, and I feel like in another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today.”

She Wants to be a Role Model

Love what you look like right now – and remember I said it 10 years from now because it’s the greatest gift I can give.’”

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 Morais is showing off her ab-fab figure – in a two-piece exercise set. In a new social media post, the fitness influencer flaunts her fantastic figure in a brown sports bra and leggings. “Self Progress & Development is not always linear. Sometimes we take steps back & that’s just a sign to course correct so we can leap forward. If 2024 wasn’t the year you expected, use it as an opportunity to learn, grow, & carry on. It’s you VS you - continue to try, focus on consistency > perfection & you will prevail 🤎 rooting for us all to strengthen our mind & bodies this year,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Strength Training

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

Prioritizing Digestion and Getting Blood Work Done

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.

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.
