Elisabetta Canalis is showing off her between seasons body in a bathing suit. The Italian model and former flame of George Clooney steams up social media with her latest photos, wearing a black swimsuit as she poses for photos. “Between Summer and Winter,” she captioned the snaps. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Elisabetta Canalis 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 Does Pilates

Elisabetta loves pilates. “What I like is that Pilates really defines the muscles,” she told People. She added to FitBump that she discovered it when on the hunt for a good cardio workout. "I was hiking with my dogs twice a week. And then I started to do Pilates. I had never done Pilates before. I found a very good place here in Los Angeles. I tried Pilates before and thought it was boring. The most important thing is to find a good school, a good teacher who motivates you."

2. She Has Sweet Tooth

“I love sugar, and I know that if I don’t work out, I can’t eat that,” she told People about her motivation to exercise. “Bread pudding has become an obsession. Potatoes any way you can cook them. And carbs! I would love to crave spinach, but it’s not going to happen.”

3. She Fuels Her Body with Food

When Canalis was on Dancing with the Stars, she had to eat more than usual. “You have to force yourself to eat a lot to have more energy because we rehearse so much. My body has always had curves but I’ve never had the kind of flat abs I have now -- for the first time in my life I can see my abs!” she told Shape "I'm very athletic," she added to SheKnows. "I love sports. I'm never on a diet regimen. I love food. When I'm not on the show, I eat a lot of protein and carbs."

4. She Does Strength Training

Elisabetta also does regular strength training workouts. She recently shared a video to social media showing off her routine. It involved a lot of combination exercises, working multiple muscle groups at once as well as small weights.

5. She Kickboxes

Elisabetta recently started kickboxing. “Yesterday I won my first kickboxing match, it was a fun and tiring experience but it gave me so much. This sport has introduced me to people who have literally changed my life like Angelo Valente who with his sacrifice, passion and professionalism encouraged me to get in the ring last night... If Angelo didn't believe in me I would never have done this madness,” she captioned a recent post.

Elisabetta Canalis, the Italian actress and showgirl, stays fit for a living and proved it by sharing a recent workout in a swimsuit. Canalis captioned the post, “The caption is… Easter the day after! Buona Pasquetta a tutti, se avete voglia potete espiare i peccati di gola con qualche esercizio altrimenti godetevi l’uovo di Pasqua e amen 💫.” (Roughly translated: "Happy Easter everyone, if you feel like you can atone for the sins of gluttony with some exercise, otherwise enjoy the Easter egg and amen 💫.") How does she stay so fit?

1. She Worked Out While Pregnant

When Canalis was pregnant with her daughter, she didn’t let it stop her from working out. Canalis took Pilates classes while she was pregnant, and she made sure to push herself. “​​What I like is that Pilates really defines the muscles,” Canalis told People. “I don’t do pregnancy classes. I take regular advanced classes!”

2. She Doesn’t Diet

In an interview with SheKnows.com, Canalis revealed some of her health and wellness secrets. She says that she focuses on working out and eating healthy, instead of putting herself on restrictive diets. “I’m very athletic,” she said. “I love sports. I’m never on a diet regimen. I love food. When I’m not on the show, I eat a lot of protein and carbs.” Try plant protein. "Nuts; nut butters; seeds; green peas; edamame; quinoa; lentils; legumes, such as garbanzo, kidney, black, pinto or cannellini beans; seitan; tofu; tempeh; and nutritional yeast are all whole food sources of plant protein. Processed plant-based meat alternatives ― "meat" balls, burgers, crumbles, "chicken" tenders and "fish" filets ― have come a long way in texture and flavor. But, it's not clear if replacing animal protein with processed plant-based meat alternatives provides the same benefit as whole food plant-based protein options," says the Mayo Clinic.

3. She Burns Calories Quickly

Canalis revealed to SheKnows that a lot of people think that she doesn’t eat a whole lot. She says that assumption is incorrect, as she eats a lot, and is just blessed with the ability to burn calories fast. “People, especially from Italy are telling me, ‘Why are you losing so much weight? You’re not eating.’ I’m eating much more than usual. People don’t believe it, but I’m burning a lot of calories.”

4. She Loves Pilates

Canalis is a big fan of Pilates. She told FitBump that she picked it up as a way to do more cardio workouts. “I was hiking with my dogs twice a week. And then I started to do Pilates. I had never done Pilates before. I found a very good place here in Los Angeles. I tried Pilates before and thought it was boring. The most important thing is to find a good school, a good teacher who motivates you.”

5. She Has A Supportive Husband

Canalis is married to surgeon, Brian Perri, and she gushed about him to FitBump. “I learned that I have a great husband. Sometimes I can’t take myself and he’s the best at doing that. [Laughs] He’s an extremely positive person. You have these moments when you’re down a little bit and he’s there. He’s super active. Every time he can go surf or run, he’ll do it. He loves it. Sometimes I’m jealous that I cannot follow him, but it motivates me. Better a person who takes care of himself than another person who grabs popcorn and hamburgers and French fries and stays every day in front of the TV.”

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.

We are committed to bringing you researched, expert-driven content to help you make more informed decisions around food, health, and wellness. We know how important making choices about your overall health is, and we strive to provide you with the best information possible.

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

Pilates

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.
