Reality star and influencer, Francesca Farago, has her own clothing label called, naturally, Farago. She shows off a lot of products from the label on her Instagram. Farago just shared posts for the brand this week. In them, she lounged by the pool in a black bathing suit. How does she stay so fit? She captioned the post, “Swipe to see our new tote bags, free with every order. Cos ilyguys.” Read on to see 5 ways Fracesca Farago 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 Eats A Variety Of Food

Farago revealed some of her wellness secrets to Life and Style. She says that she eats a variety of different foods. “I kind of like to have a full range of fruits and vegetables, a full range of carbs and fats,” she says. “I just keep it stagnant. It just works!”

2. She’s Comfortable With Her Body

Farago is extremely comfortable with herself and her body. She tells Life and Style that this mindset helps her not stress about working out. “Before COVID, I was working out and my body was more toned,” she says. “My ass was big, I had more muscle tone in my arms and overall, I just felt leaner, but I’m happy with the way I look now.”

3. She’s Vegan

Farago is open about being vegan. She shares a lot of her favorite plant-based foods and products on social media. She tells Life and Style that she believes her diet is what helps her stay healthy. “Honestly, I think it’s just me being vegan. I think that’s 90 percent of what it is.” A study in the Journal of The American Heart Association states, “Plant‐based diets, diets that emphasize higher intakes of plant foods and lower intakes of animal foods, are associated with a lower risk of incident cardiovascular disease, cardiovascular disease mortality, and all‐cause mortality in a general US adult population.”

4. She Still Indulges

Farago isn’t afraid to enjoy a treat now and then. "Of course, I have a sweet tooth so I eat dessert a few times a week,” she said in 2020 to Women’s Health. Farago also admitted that the pandemic has added to her mindset. “And especially with quarantine, it's hard not to eat a bunch of Oreos.”

5. She Does Full Body Workouts As Often As She Can

Farago admits that she doesn’t always have time to work out. However, she told Women’s Health that she does full body exercises as often as possible. “I try to work out three to four times a week,” she says. “Right now I just kind of do an overall full body and then I think it's mainly diet for me that keeps me lean." Working out your entire body has a lot of benefits. You are able to work out different muscle groups and body parts. Ace Fitness reports, “Multijoint exercises like the squat, deadlift, or standing shoulder press engage a number of muscles that can help increase energy expenditure.”

Australian model Zoe Gara is enjoying the September sun in Ibiza, Spain. Gara shared a picture of herself wearing a bright string bathing suit as she lounged by the pool—and her fans clearly loved the post. “A queen,” one admirer said. So how does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Gara 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 Loves Pancakes For Breakfast

Gara starts the day with delicious fruit, pancakes, and oatmeal, which experts say is a great choice for a healthy breakfast. “The soluble fiber in oats has been shown to decrease low-density lipoprotein, or ‘bad’ cholesterol, by 10%–15%, particularly when consumed as part of a low-fat diet,” says Megan Holdaway, RDN. “Studies show fiber can also decrease risk of high blood pressure and reduce risk of mortality from cardiovascular disease. A high-fiber diet has also been shown to reduce the risk of colon cancer. The American Heart Association recommends that adults eat 25–30 grams of fiber per day. Most Americans only eat about half that amount.”

2. She Never Diets

Gara’s lithe physique is the result of martial arts training—and plenty of food. “I eat more than people can imagine,” Gara says. “I’ve been blessed with good genetics consisting of a fast metabolism. People also do forget I have consistently trained in martial arts my whole life!”

3. She Swims In the Ocean

Gara is an accomplished swimmer, and loves the ocean—something that offers many health benefits, experts say. “In his 2014 book Blue Mind, marine biologist Wallace J. Nichols brought together evidence for why people find themselves in a meditative and relaxed state when they are in, on or under water,” says Sergio Diez Alvarez, director of medicine, The Maitland and Kurri Kurri Hospital, University of Newcastle. “One reason is the breathing patterns used during swimming and diving. These stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system (the system that controls organ function and quietens the brain) and have effects on brain waves and hormones that influence the brain positively. The weightlessness of water can also have a calming effect on the mind, even changing or slowing down brain waves.”

4. She Protects Her Mental Health

Being in the public eye can take its toll—but Gara is careful to protect her mental health. “You can take care of your mental health simply by not caring and not letting anyone get to you,” she says. “When you stop caring what other people think about you, you’ll begin to shine and no one will seek to bring you down… I used to struggle with my confidence after haters would try to bring me down, but then I realized my worth and that it reflects who they are as a person. Knowing your worth is also important, as well as accepting your uniqueness and insecurities and telling yourself you are beautiful just the way you are.”

5. She Knows What’s Important In Life

Gara is realistic and grounded about her job as an influencer, saying “real life” is what really matters. “Social media validation is nowhere near as important as real life validation,” Gara says. “It is important in regards to keeping consistent growth and income, but being a good person and real to everyone around me is all that matters in terms of validation.”

1. She Protects Her Skin

"I’ve tried so many different things for my skin, I feel like I’ve done things that are really bad, like I even started using sun beds and things like that, which were the worst thing I could have done, because they just scar your face. But now I constantly use a retinol and alway make sure in the morning, even in England, that I put a SPF on,” she told Heatworld. You should, too. What is SPF anyway? "So if you stand outside in a particular location and you're testing the sunscreen and it takes you 10 minutes to develop redness to the skin without the product on, but then you apply the product on a different area of skin and it takes 50 minutes for the skin to show redness, then that is an SPF factor of 50 over 10, which equals 5,” Dr. Dawn Davis, a Mayo Clinic dermatologist, says.

2. She Does Yoga

"Recently I’ve been doing yoga which I never liked in the past. I’ve always done quite high-intensity things such as running, HIT training or boxing, but since lockdown and with me being home a lot, I’ve been doing yoga before bed and it just makes me sleep a lot easier. A lot of the time, when I lie in bed, I can just be thinking of loads of things I need to do tomorrow and doing yoga before bed really helps,” she told Heatworld.

3. She Lost Weight

Allen lost weight and fans noticed. “I don’t get people being nasty in my DMs. Everyone’s really kind and I’m so grateful for my following,” she told the Daily Mail. “But I’ve had a couple of people messaging me about my weight and saying I edit it my photo. I’m like – hun – I’ve actually lost nearly 2st, so I am gonna look a bit different.”

4. High Intensity Workouts Can Burn Fat

London Celebrity Sightings - January 5, 2022Ricky Vigil M/GC Images via Getty Images

High Intensity workouts, or HIIT, can be a great way to get sweaty. Try doing exercises that are performed in superset fashion. This means that you will do exercises 1a, then move immediately to 2a; rest for one minute, then repeat 1a & 2a again until you have done each circuit 3 times. After one circuit is complete, rest for two minutes and hydrate before moving on to the next circuit. Here's an example, from trainer Mark Langowski:

1a. Split Lunge with Biceps Curl: 12 reps each leg. For Men Use 15’s-25’s, For Women Use 5-10lb db’s.

Hold the weights at your side. Now, as if you were standing on a balance beam, with one foot in front of the other, separate your feet 2 feet apart. Inhale as you kneel down; your front knee should be at 90 degrees and back knee almost touches the ground. Sit down into the glute of your front leg. Exhale as you press back up to the starting position. Do 12 reps on that leg. Then repeat with the other leg.

2a. Chin-ups. If you can do at least 8 chin ups in a row: Do three sets of chin-ups, each set to failure.

If you cannot do at least 8 chin ups: Use the squat rack and do three sets of body rows. Position the bar at about chest height and grab it with an overhand grip, hands about shoulder-width apart. Scoot your legs forward until your body is at a 45-degree angle to the ground and your weight is resting on your heels. Now pull yourself up until your chest touches the bar, then lower yourself back down. 12 reps.

5. She Feels “in Tune” With Herself Like Never Before

“2021 I’ve never felt this in-tune with myself like I do currently, I know who my friends are I know what my goals are and I feel empowered for it! I’m sure like me, many of us have lost ourselves time to time but I can promise without struggle there is no success and you can’t enjoy the good if you have never experienced the bad,” she has said.

So, how does she stay in such incredible shape? From strength training to boxing, here’s a look at her go-to fitness moves.

She Strength Trains

In her Instagram post, Sharvari is seen doing a strength training exercise. The Mayo Clinic says that strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories. Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. 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.”

She Does Yoga

Sharvari shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. One thing she likes to do is yoga. Sharvari posted this video of herself doing poses on her page. John Hopkins Medicine states that yoga is very beneficial. “Regular yoga practice may reduce levels of stress and body-wide inflammation, contributing to healthier hearts. Several of the factors contributing to heart disease, including high blood pressure and excess weight, can also be addressed through yoga.”

She Plays Padel

Sharvari likes to play padel to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself on the court. Playing padel has a lot of health benefits. Everybody Health & Leisure says, “It improves cardiovascular fitness, helps to build strength and endurance, enhances coordination and promotes overall physical and mental well-being. Not to mention, it’s a fantastic way to burn calories.”

She Boxes

Another thing that Sharvari does to keep herself in shape is box. She first picked this up when training for the film, Vedaa. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself punching a bag. Sharvari captioned the post, “BEAST MODE on for Vedaa! ⚠️☠️🥊 Took up boxing to become Vedaa... Now I am ready to pack a punch or be strong enough to take a brutal beating 💪#Vedaa coming to a theatre near you on August 15th.”

She Runs

Sharvari likes to run to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself running on the beach. She captioned the post, “Decided to seas the day!” Better Health says that running is very beneficial. “Regular running or jogging offers many health benefits.

Natasa Stankovic in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Wednesday Challenge"

Stankovic shares her go-to workout moves, from squats to lunges, cardio, Pilates, and strength training.

Entertainment India - March 2023

Natasa Stankovic isn’t just a content creator—she’s a fitness inspiration. Known for sharing intense workout sessions on Instagram, she keeps her followers motivated with creative exercise challenges and dynamic routines.

In her latest post, Stankovic teamed up with Aleksandar Illic for a lower body blast, pushing through variations of squats and lunges. Dressed in a sleek two-piece workout set, she captioned the session, “Wednesday challenge,” proving that fitness is all about consistency and fun.

So, how does she maintain her lean, strong physique? From strength training to Pilates, here’s a look at Stankovic’s go-to workout moves.

She Does Squats

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

She Does Cardio

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

She Does Pilates

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial. The Cleveland Clinic says, “One of the reasons Pilates is such a good workout is that it specifically focuses on building core strength.”

She Strength Trains

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health benefits. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

Kim French in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Real Results" Workout

Learn how she sculpts her powerhouse physique with deadlifts, lunges, squats, and more.

Kim French is more than just a personal trainer—she’s a fitness coach who empowers thousands through her Believe App and Instagram workouts. Known for her structured, effective home training plans, she proves that you don’t need a gym full of heavy weights to build serious strength.

In a recent Instagram post, French shared a glimpse of her at-home training, reminding followers that smart training delivers "REAL results." Rocking a sleek two-piece workout set, she showcased some of her go-to exercises, emphasizing that with the right strategy, anyone can see progress.

So what’s in her routine? From deadlifts to hip thrusts, here’s how French sculpts her powerhouse physique.

She Does Deadlifts

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

She Does Lunges

Another exercise that French is seen doing in her Instagram post is lunges. NASM says that they are very beneficial. “The lunge is a versatile, simple and effective movement for lower body training. Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

She Does Squats

French is seen doing squats in her Instagram video. According to The Cleveland Clinic, squats are very beneficial. “Here’s a quick look at the many benefits of squats, also known as bodyweight squats or air squats: Works major muscle groups. Burns calories. Strengthens your core. Improves lower body strength. Enhances stability and balance. Betters your posture.”

She Does Hamstring Curls

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
