1. She Has No Time For Haters

Ratajkowski has never been afraid to stand up for herself, what she believes in, and shut down haters on social media. On her Instagram story, she responded to some haters, after posting a photo of herself in a revealing outfit. “Almost didn't post this bc I knew the controversy it would stir up but hey it's my damn body and I'm not going to lean into shaming! God bless!”

2. She Loves Workout Classes

Ratajkowski has been vague about her fitness routine in the past, but she does have some favorite ways to exercise. She tells InStyle that she loves to go to workout classes at the gym. She says that they push her to work harder than she would working out alone. “I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself, so the class environment works really, really well for me,” says Ratajkowski.

3. She Loves Zumba Classes

One of Ratajkowski’s favorite exercise classes to go to is a Zumba class. She even has a partnership with the company’s STRONG brand. “I think that’s the great thing about STRONG — the music keeps me really focused and in the zone,” she tells InStyle. “You just feel like you're, you know, Superwoman really pushing herself. You end up working harder and it's a better, more intense workout, without even noticing.”

4. She Works Out At Night

Ratajkowski tells InStyle that getting enough sleep is very important to her. It’s this reason that she likes to do most of her workouts before she goes to bed. She says that this helps her sleep better. "For me, the way I sleep afterwards is one of the main reasons to work out. I am always on my phone working and I think that's affected my sleep. I'm also really light-sensitive. When I work out, it's better than taking a melatonin. Because my body has worked hard, my brain finally rests and I think that is so valuable in this day and age — not to sound like an old geezer, but truly I feel that way."

5. She Believes In Balance

Ratajkowski says that her wellness routine is all about balance. "I'm all about the balance of that stuff and I really, as cheesy as this sounds, truly believe that mental and physical are really aligned, so taking care of yourself physically will help you mentally and vice versa," she says to InStyle. Pay attention to your mental health. "If you have stress symptoms, taking steps to manage your stress can have many health benefits. Explore stress management strategies, such as:

• Getting regular physical activity
• Practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, meditation, yoga, tai chi or massage
• Keeping a sense of humor
• Spending time with family and friends
• Setting aside time for hobbies, such as reading a book or listening to music," says the Mayo Clinic.

Emily Ratajkowski is a busy woman. The model, actress, writer, and mother is constantly on the move, but she always has time to share some cute bathing suit shots on social media. The 31-year-old star posted a photo of herself wearing a red bikini, because there’s always time for swimsuit selfies. How does she stay so fit?

1. She Sets Boundaries

Ratajkowski is firm about boundaries, something she wants young girls to be strict about. "For a young girl going into modeling today, I would tell her that the agencies, as much as they seem like they're protecting you, they're not," she says. "You have to learn to have your own limits and boundaries and to take care of yourself. I think the industry really needs to change, but that's one way that a young woman could protect herself."

2. She Keeps Her Phone Out Of the Bedroom

Ratajkowski makes sure to keep her phone out of the bedroom to ensure better sleep. “When things in my life start to feel stressful, or I look at the news and feel like, ‘Oh my God, everything is falling apart,’ it can really feed into anxiety,” she says. “One of the things that I don’t always do and I wish I did more is sleep with the phone outside of my bedroom. I think when you know that your phone is right by you and accessible to you, even if you’re asleep, I don’t think you shut out all of that, on a subconscious level.”

3. She Works Through Self-Doubt

Ratajkowski knows what it feels like to doubt yourself—but she always works through it. "I always felt very sure of the fact that I was never going to be as good as I wanted to be and I think getting past that and just doing it, and even doing something poorly and badly can be hugely important," she says. "The way to battle self doubt is to keep working. It's OK to have that feeling; you just have to move past it."

4. She Keeps Thing Balanced

Ratajkowski knows the importance of downtime and relaxation. “I feel like, at least for me, that was a very new idea in the last two years,” she says. “Most of my life [physical and mental health] were very disconnected, but now I check in with myself more. Sometimes that means ordering a mountain of Thai food and staying at home and watching TV — and that can be wellness. I love eating a meal in bed on like, a Thursday night or whatever instead of going out and just being cozy, you see?”

5. She Loves To Read

Ratajkowski’s love of reading eventually inspired her to write a book of essays called My Body. “I’ve been an avid reader my whole life, and it was one of the reasons I didn’t write more, because I had so much respect for wonderful writing that I felt like, ‘Why attempt, why not just appreciate?’” she says. “I’ve always been drawn to sparse, unpretentious writing. Flowery language doesn’t really interest me. It covers it up. It’s often difficult to be very direct and not flowery because you really have to figure out what ... you’re saying. I have so much respect for people who are good at that, especially in essays, because the idea of an essay is to get to the root of something, to investigate it.”

Emily Ratajkowski is heating up the beaches of Spain with her latest swimsuit snaps. The model and rumored new gal pal of Brad Pitt vacationed in Majorca and shared the photos to her millions of followers. She captioned the series of snaps, which highlighted her famous figure in a bold bathing suit, “cala pi,” referencing the Mallorcan beach. How does the mother-of-one maintain her seriously fit physique?

“I don’t have a trainer, and I don’t really go to the gym. I go on long walks and hikes with my girlfriends. That’s about it. I’m just not a crazy fitness person. I’m definitely an outlier in the industry,” Emily told The New York Times. “And doing yoga a couple of times a week is a really big part of my regimen.”

2. She Focuses On Being Herself

"I think the biggest obstacle of my career has been transitioning and doing things that people didn't really expect," Emily told Harper’s Bazaar. "But I think you just have to forge ahead and do what you're going to do and be who you are."

3. She Prioritizes Self-Care

Emily puts priority on self-care. One way she relaxes? Exercising at night. "For me, the way I sleep afterwards is one of the main reasons to work out. I am always on my phone working and I think that's affected my sleep. I'm also really light-sensitive. When I work out, it's better than taking a melatonin. Because my body has worked hard, my brain finally rests and I think that is so valuable in this day and age — not to sound like an old geezer, but truly I feel that way," she told InStyle. She is also big into baths, regularly sharing photos of her soaks on Instagram.

4. She Walks Her Dog

Emily is the proud owner of a Husky mix, who she regularly walks in New York City. "I still can’t believe that he went from 13 lbs at 8 weeks old to approx 80 lbs in one quick year," Emily wrote, commemorating her pooch on his birthday in 2020. "He’s still the snuggliest though! He makes us the happiest and I’m going to take this opportunity to post a sh*t ton of pics of him ‘cause you know what? We all could use some puppy pics right about now. Hbd Colombo ILYSM."

5. She Takes Workout Classes

“I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself, so the class environment works really, really well for me,” Emily told InStyle. “I am also someone who, even in a class, will get chatty and [distracted]. I think that’s the great thing about STRONG — the music keeps me really focused and in the zone,” she continues. “You just feel like you're, you know, Superwoman really pushing herself. You end up working harder and it's a better, more intense workout, without even noticing.”

Ratajkowski tells Harper’s Bazaar that while she eats pastries for breakfast, she tends to eat a light healthier lunch. "Lunch is usually a salad or a sandwich," she says. "If I'm on set, I'll have catering, but I'm well behaved with that stuff. It's easy to go crazy—they know how to feed you."

2. She Cooks Her Meals

3. She Indulges Once In A While

Ratajkowski believes in a balanced diet, and that includes indulgences. "I think it's good to indulge occasionally," she said to Elle. "I wouldn't say I am the type of girl who craves Doritos but I definitely love a good cupcake sometimes. You know what I mean? Or a croissant in the morning. I think it is like really important to give yourself a break."

4. She Loves To Get Outside

Ratajkowski’s fitness routines usually involve her going outside. "I really like being outside and doing yoga, so I do a lot of hiking in L.A. and I have a yoga studio really close to my house that I go to like once a week,” she told Elle. Ratajkowski says she prefers her workouts to be slower paced, “I am not a big gym person.”

5. She Takes Classes and Loves Zumba

When Ratajkowski does go to the gym, she enjoys taking fitness classes. “I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself, so the class environment works really, really well for me,” says Ratajkowski to InStyle.com. Ratajkowski is a partner of STRONG by Zumba and loves it. “You just feel like you're, you know, Superwoman really pushing herself.

Ratajkowski has incredible skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She revealed to Vogue that she has learned to keep her skincare routine pretty simple, after trying a bunch of things at home."In quarantine, I went crazy and ordered a bunch of skincare products. One of the things I've learned about beauty: I just need the basics and for them to be really good. That was one of the ways that my skin freaked out because I was overusing products."

2. She Loves Face Masks

Ratajkowksi tells New Beauty that she loves to use face masks. She says that she loves the LOOPS brand in particular. “What I love about LOOPS is that it’s a mask that I can throw on for 15 minutes while I’m answering calls from bed. Or even like this morning—I had kind of a hectic morning and I was making my bed and running around having my coffee and taking calls, and I kept the face mask on while I was doing all of that, then I took it off and did my makeup.”

3. She Washes Her Face Gently, And Only Once A Day

Ratajkowski tells New Beauty that she makes sure to wash her face. She says that she only does so once a day, and makes sure to be gentle on her skin. “I used to think washing your face was really, really important—and I do still—but I think you should only wash it once a day at night, and really lightly. Because otherwise, at least for my skin, it strips my skin of the natural oils and makes my skin breakout because it dries. So I do wash my face at night, but I think simplifying it is better [for your skin]. Oh, and use cold water—not hot! That’s my new trick.”

4. She Loves Fitness Classes

Ratajkowski tells InStyle that she loves to go to fitness classes in order to help her stay in shape. “I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself, so the class environment works really, really well for me.” One of Ratajkowski’s favorite classes is STRONG classes from Zumba.

5. She Works Out To Help Herself Sleep

Ratajkowski loves to work out at night, and she told InStyle that it helps her sleep better. "For me, the way I sleep afterwards is one of the main reasons to work out,” she says. “I am always on my phone working and I think that's affected my sleep. I'm also really light-sensitive. When I work out, it's better than taking a melatonin. Because my body has worked hard, my brain finally rests and I think that is so valuable in this day and age — not to sound like an old geezer, but truly I feel that way."
