Turkish star İrem Derici is known for her confidence and style. The singer posted a series of updates of herself wearing white pants with a white bikini top, much to the delight of her fans. Derici’s tongue-in-cheek caption was a shout-out to whoever might be envying her good looks, saying she knows they have an eye on “my beauty”. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Derici 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 a Dancer

Derici is a fantastic dancer, regularly performing on stage. “Dance, both in the Olympics and in life, seem to be under-recognized and under-appreciated in its potential benefits for health and mental health,” says H. Steven Moffic, MD. “Finally, however, the benefits of dancing are being scientifically researched. Benefits from a variety of studies involve our hearts, lungs, bones, and brains... Rhythmic dance parallels our heart rhythms and blood flow. Although dance seems to rev people up, it actually reduces stress and cortisol levels.”

2. She Enjoys Fresh Orange Juice

One of Derici’s favorite drinks is fresh-squeezed orange juice. “Oranges contain health-promoting compounds known as flavanones,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “Research suggests that these phytochemicals help support the body and protect us from conditions such as heart disease and cancer – they’re also thought to have anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antimicrobial benefits. What’s more, orange peel actually contains higher amounts of certain nutrients than the flesh, so using recipes that incorporate the zest of an orange will give your diet an extra boost.”

3. She Loves Sushi

Derici enjoys Japanese cuisine, especially delicious sushi. “Brown rice in sushi brings a plethora of benefits – compared to white rice, it generally has more fiber and magnesium – a vital nutrient for energy production, healthy bones, hormonal balance and helps maintain our nervous system and cardiovascular health,” says nutritionist Kathleen Alleaume. “Naturally being the healthier fast-food option anyway, going one step further and making the simple decision to opt for the brown rice sushi options over the white will have you feeling healthier in no time.”

4. She Enjoys Leafy Salads

Derici balances out her diet with healthy, leafy salads. “Salads composed from even a few ingredients make a nutrient-rich meal,” says nutritionist Sandi Busch. “The greens alone have calcium, iron, potassium and B vitamins. Many salad basics, including tomatoes, sweet peppers and the greens, are chock-full of antioxidants. Add high fiber and low calories into the mix and you can't go wrong including a salad in your daily diet.”

5. She Snacks On Pineapple

Derici enjoys fresh pineapple for a healthy snack. “A number of studies suggest that bromelain helps reduce inflammation, swelling and bruising after injury or surgery,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “It can even be useful if taken before dental surgery, when it appears to help reduce pain and provide as much relief as anti-inflammatory medication.”

1. She Does Pilates

Rae learned how to do Pilates from a good friend—a Kardashian. “The best wellness hack I've learned from Kourtney is probably, working out and doing pilates. I feel like I really started getting into pilates whenever I was working out with Kourtney. We'd do pilates and also run. I mean, I hate running... But it's so good for you,” she told Glamour UK.

2. She Brainstorms For Her Own Beauty Line

She is pretty involved in her own beauty line, Item Beauty. “My team and I do tons of calls, almost every other week,” she told the New York Times. “It’s brainstorming the entire time, which is so fun. And I have the craziest ideas so randomly. So it consists very much of me randomly having an outburst of an idea and then the team making it come to life, which is really, really cool.”

3. This is What Makes Her Feel Empowered

“I feel most empowered when I'm doing things that I love to do. So dancing, singing, being creative. I feel very empowered when I'm being creative. My favourite song to sing is this song called Wait by Maroon 5 featuring a Boogie With A Hoodie (I really like his verse),” she told Glamour UK.

4. She Has This to Say About Beauty Standards

"For me, a lot of people have said, 'Oh I love how comfortable she is and she doesn't look like the beauty standard.' It's a backhanded compliment sometimes because people will be like, 'I'm so glad she's confident that she doesn't look perfect,'" she said, according to People. "It hurts sometimes when people say that, because I think everyone's perfect, so why is there some standard of 'this body is the ideal body'?"

5. Here’s the Scoop on Omer

“Now 21, Omer moved to Los Angeles from Tel Aviv with his dad when he was 16,” reports Seventeen. “Growing up, his dad was one of Israel's most accomplished and well-respected drummers. According to MTV News, his dad's career introduced him to music at a very young age. After listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers, he knew that was his dream.” "I wanna make my friends the biggest artists in the world," he told MTV News.

Actress Nesrin Cavadzade shared a new set of swimsuit photos this week. In them, she stood by the pool in a blue swimsuit with a cut-out. She captioned the post, “I decided to open the season before Fedon.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Nesrin Cavadzade 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 Works Hard

Cavadzade opened up about her life and career in an interview with Women’s Fitness. She says that working out and working hard are things that are important to her. Cavadzade says that this also sets her apart. “I think I am one of the fittest women of my generation. This is actually an extension of my hardworking production.”

2. She Wants To Empower Women

Cavadzade was asked about her image in her Women’s Fitness interview. She says that she wants to use it as a way of empowering others. “I love this image. Because this is the dress I prefer to wear, the jacket! But it's completely 'Is this really your prose?' If you say no, it's not. Because I just like this image. Thanks to this image, I both give myself strength, overcome my fears, and also think that I empower women. As long as they don't misunderstand me and they're not angry.”

3. She’s Comfortable With Herself

Cavadzade is all about having self-confidence. In her Women’s Fitness interview, she was asked if she ever got self-conscious. She answered “no”, and encouraged others to develop the same attitude. “It never happens! As women, we are so cornered about being attractive. Almost every moment of us is self-censorship. That's why for me, a woman who has not been forced to hide her charm, is a stance to be proud of."

4. She Gets Some Sun

Sunshine is a great source of vitamin D. "You can get vitamin D in a variety of ways, including:

  • Sun exposure on your skin (however, people with darker skin and older people may not get enough vitamin D through sunlight. Your geographical location may also prevent adequate vitamin D exposure through sunlight).
  • Through the food you eat.
  • Through nutritional supplements," says the Cleveland Clinic.

5. She Remains Chill

"I embrace more of who I am now. I am peaceful, happy and calm," she told Hello. "Once you've learned which situations affect your self-esteem, notice your thoughts about them. This includes what you tell yourself (self-talk) and how you view the situations," says the Mayo Clinic. "Your thoughts and beliefs might be positive, negative or neutral. They might be rational, based on reason or facts. Or they may be irrational, based on false ideas."

1. She Loves the Beach

“Gorgeous beach days and unending cocktails 🍸,” Ileana said once. “Being active on sand isn't just about soaking up some rays. When sand moves beneath your feet, it engages your ankles, arches, and calves, which can burn extra calories while you move,” says Cedars-Sinai. “Taking it slow, staying on wet sand, and wearing shoes can help keep you upright and enjoying a great workout in the ocean air this summer.”

2. She Had Body Dysmorphia

“I’ve always worried about how I looked. I’ve worried my hips are too wide, my thighs too wobbly, my waist not narrow enough, my tummy not flat enough, my boobs not big enough, my butt too big, my arms too jiggly, nose not straight enough, lips not full enough….. I’ve worried that I’m not tall enough, not pretty enough, not funny enough, not smart enough, not ‘perfect’ enough,” she once wrote. “Not realising I was never meant to be perfect. I was meant to be beautifully flawed.

Different.

Quirky.

Unique.

Every scar, every bump, every “flaw” just made me, me.

My own kind of beautiful.

That’s why I’ve stopped. Stopped trying to conform to the world’s ideals of what’s meant to be beautiful.

I’ve stopped trying so hard to fit in. Why should I?? When I was born to stand out.”

3. She Says “Take Care of Yourself”

Ileana once wrote: “Take care of yourself. Take care of what you choose to put into your system. The body you have is uniquely beautiful so nourish it - physically as well as mentally.

Lastly dress up, show up, not for anyone else. Just do it for you. It’s so worth it. Trust me. ♥️”

4. She Likes Dogs Over Humans

Ileana shared a photo of herself with a dog. “If you really think I’m ever gonna look at a human like this……Hahahahahahahahahhaha,” she captioned it. “#doggosoverhumans @orotheindie 🥹♥” “Owning a dog can help you live longer. A comprehensive review of studies published between 1950 and 2019 found that dog owners had a lower risk of death. Studies suggest that dog owners have lower blood pressure levels and improved responses to stress. Even just living with a dog makes a difference—people who had experienced previous coronary events had an even higher level of risk reduction for death. Research has concluded that the bond between humans and dogs reduces stress, which is a major cause of cardiovascular problems,” says the American Kennel Club.

5. She Enjoys Some Country Air

“Throwing it back to the time I was casually chilling in lovely picturesque English countryside, in animal print, black lace, and goth makeup 💀 😂,” she captioned a photo she shared recently. “Grill out on the patio. Or if the weather is cool, bundle up in warm clothes and sit around a fire pit. If you and your friends haven't been vaccinated, keep your gathering small, maintaining social distance from others. Plan activities that don't require close contact. You may even choose to have everyone bring their own food and drinks. Wash your hands when you arrive and leave the gathering,” says the Mayo Clinic.

Despite being a model, Mir has been subjected to a lot of criticism on social media. Mir has had to deal with comments on her body. However, she isn’t afraid to call these people out, and did so in the caption of her recent Instagram post. “Under my last reel, a lot of you paid a lot of attention especially to a body part: my butt. For everyone in the comments asking where he is, here he is. And for those who asked what's wrong with him, what kind of question is this? 🤣 We’re talking body positivity, body acceptance, feeling good in your own body, being allowed to be yourself, more Instagram reality, and more. At the same time, my body will be in hundreds of comments (also from women, female empowerment? ) evaluated, unjustly criticized and unfortunately also insulted. ‘Something wrong with your ass!’, I'd rather look at myself in the mirror, that wouldn't be nice - how can something be right about an ass or not? Who defines this? Can I read this up somewhere?”

2. She’s All About Self-Love

She also talked about this in the caption of her recent Instagram post. “Thankfully yes beauty is in the eye of beholder and I felt very comfortable in my skin especially this evening the video was taken and yes my butt is small but I'm absolutely pleased with myself and feel poodle good 😁 Shouldn't it be our goal?” Mir also encouraged others to have this same attitude. “For those who don’t feel comfortable in their own skin, do something about it. But please don’t criticize others for things that make them feel good about yourself.”

3. She Swims

Adding a playful pun to her caption, she wrote, “Never tyre’d of a good beach workout.”
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. Running can: help to build strong bones, as it is a weight bearing exercise, strengthen muscles, improve cardiovascular fitness, burn plenty of kilojoules, help maintain a healthy weight.”

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.”
