Italy Mora is moving past the scandal that disqualified her from the Miss Universe 2024 competition, where she admitted to breaking pageant rules by leaving her hotel to meet her boyfriend. Despite the controversy, Italy is focusing on wellness and self-care. In a new social media post, she flaunted her fit physique in a two-piece workout set during a gym session. How does she stay healthy and balanced? Here’s a look at her wellness habits.


1. She Walks Her Dog

Italy is the proud owner of a French Bulldog. She regularly takes it on walks and shares about the Frenchie in her Instagram Stories. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, 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 led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

2. Self-Love

Italy believes that beauty comes from within. She loves sharing motivational messages with her many followers. “Beauty is how you feel inside and it is always reflected in your look so many things in life we just need a second to do spectacular things,” she captioned a recent post.

3. Hydration

With a super busy lifestyle, Italy understands that hydration is important. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

4. Running

Italy also enjoys running. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.

5. Strength Training

In her latest post, Italy takes a break from her strength training workout to take a mirror selfie. 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

1. She Works Out In The Off Season

For Blanquisco, working out is an all-year thing. Even when she isn’t competing. She revealed in this gym video she posted on Instagram that she works out in the off-seasons. In it, Blanquisco is seen doing one-arm bicep pulldowns and curls. She captioned it, “Lean OFF-SEASON is officially ON. 10kg up from my stage weight! I feel good and rested! Strength and pump is coming back!”

2. She Does Cardio

Blanquisco does a lot of different types of workouts. One thing she likes to do is cardio exercises. In this photo she posted on Instagram, she revealed in the caption that she did a lot of cardio at the gym day. She wrote, “Cardio. Workout. Sauna. Next stop cardio! 9 days out!”

Cardio exercise is any type of physical activity that raises your heart rate and increases your breathing rate. It's an important part of a healthy lifestyle, as it can help to improve cardiovascular fitness, reduce the risk of heart disease and other chronic conditions, and promote weight loss. Here are a few examples of ways to do cardio exercise:

  1. Walking: Walking is a simple and accessible form of cardio exercise that can be done almost anywhere. To get the most benefit, aim to walk at a moderate intensity for at least 30 minutes on most days of the week.
  2. Jogging: Jogging is a higher intensity form of cardio exercise that can help to improve cardiovascular fitness and burn more calories. To get started, try jogging for short intervals and gradually increasing the distance as you get more comfortable.
  3. Biking: Biking is another great form of cardio exercise that can be done outdoors or indoors on a stationary bike. It's a low-impact option that can be easier on the joints than activities like running.
  4. Swimming: Swimming is an excellent form of cardio exercise that works the entire body and is easy on the joints. It's a great option for people with injuries or chronic pain, as the water provides buoyancy and support.
  5. Group fitness classes: Group fitness classes, such as spin class, Zumba, or kickboxing, can be a fun and social way to get your cardio in. Many gyms and community centers offer a variety of classes that cater to different fitness levels.

It's important to remember to start slowly and gradually increase the intensity of your cardio workouts as you become more fit. It's also a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new exercise program, particularly if you have any underlying health conditions.

3. She Weight Trains

Another type of workout Blanquisco likes to do is weight train. In a majority of her gym videos that she posts on Instagram, she is seen doing a lot of different exercises with weights and strength training. In this video, Blanquisco is seen doing exercises like squats with dumbbells, deadlifts, and hamstring curls. She captioned it, “Hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard.”

4. She Works Out Her Back

A body part Blanquisco does a lot of exercises to help is her back. She shares a lot of her back days at the gym on Instagram. In this video, she is seen doing seated bicep curls. She captioned it, “Squeezing in this back sesh. 16 days out.”

5. She Doesn’t Make Excuses

Blanquisco has a strong work ethic. One thing she does is, avoid making excuses for not working out. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram video. “If there’s one thing people love doing, it’s making excuses. And if there’s one thing people hate hearing, it’s that they’re making excuses. That’s why your friends won’t tell you you’re making excuses. They know you don’t want to hear it, and they don’t want you to be mad at them. So instead, they tell you what you want to hear: that you’re doing everything right, nothing is your fault, and success takes only the barest amount of effort. So don’t make excuses for why you can’t get it done! Focus on all the reasons why you must make it happen!”

1. She Does Squats

Ammirato is seen doing squats in her Instagram post. ACE Fitness states that the exercise has a lot of benefits. “Love them or hate them, squats can work wonders for your strength, flexibility, physique and power. This multijoint movement engages the glutes, hamstrings, quad, back and core, making it a great total-body exercise.”

2. She Uses Weights

Valeria Ammirato.2Valeria Ammirato/Instagram

Ammirato is seen using a barbell in her Instagram video. Lifting weights or using them in your exercise is very beneficial. According to ACE Fitness, “Using maximal loads for compound (multi-joint) movements like the deadlift, squat-to-shoulder press, bent-over row or chest press can improve intermuscular coordination, which is the ability of many muscles to work together to generate and control high levels of force through multiple joints.”

3. She Walks

Ammirato spends a lot of time outside. She does a lot of outdoor workouts to keep herself fit. One thing she enjoys doing is going for walks. Ammirato shared this photo on Instagram of herself walking. She captioned the post, “Enjoying the beautiful weather after what feels like ages! ☀️ Did anyone else spend their weekend soaking up the sun outdoors like I did?”

4. She Swims

Another outdoor activity that Ammirato likes to do is swim. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself in the water. Ammirato shared this photo of herself wading at the beach in Dubai.

She captioned it, “🎉Celebrating 38 years today! 🎉 Stepping into a new chapter filled with peace, inner calm, and a crystal-clear vision of my goals. Cheers to the adventures ahead! ✨”

5. She Loves Fruit

Ammirato loves to eat dried fruit. She shared this photo and video on Instagram of herself enjoying a variety of dried fruits. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics states that fruit is very beneficial. “Research suggests eating enough fruits and vegetables is linked to a lower risk of many chronic diseases and may help protect against certain types of cancer. Despite these health benefits, many people don't eat enough produce. Whether fresh, frozen, canned or dried, fruits and vegetables are major sources of nutrients we need. Since the nutrients in fruits and vegetables vary, it's important to eat a variety on a regular basis. And be sure to opt for dark green, red and orange vegetables, and beans and peas throughout the week.”

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.”
