Read on to see 5 ways Irinia Shayk 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 Ju-Jitsu

Shayk broke down her wellness habits in an interview with Women’s Health. She admits that she’s not the biggest fan of most cardio workouts, like running. However, she has found a cardio exercise that she loves. “Four months ago I started jiu-jitsu with my personal trainer, and it’s great. It’s a Japanese self-defense discipline, but because there’s so many possible move combinations, it’s brilliant for constantly challenging my body and pushing it to exhaustion every time.”

2. She Does Barre Exercises in Her Hotel Room

Shayk has to do a lot of traveling for her job. However, she doesn’t let her schedule stop her from working out on a consistent basis. Shayk tells Women’s Health that she does exercises in her hotel rooms, usually a barre workout. “If I'm traveling, I try to work out in my hotel room or at work during breaks, focusing on simple barre moves that don’t need any equipment and really work my arms and bum.”

3. She Eats A Balanced Diet

Shayk may be a model, but she isn’t on any stereotypical model diet. She is open about her love of food, particularly unhealthy food. Shayk is also open about her love of a balanced diet. “Two days ago I had a huge burger with cheese, French fries, lots of ketchup, and a large Sprite,” she explains to Women’s Health. “But in the name of balance, I got up the next morning, did 30 minutes of barre in my room and ate steamed fish and grilled vegetables for dinner.”

4. She Uses Multiple Moisturizers

Shayk has amazing skin, and she needs to keep it healthy for her job, especially since she has to wear a lot of makeup. She tells Women’s Health that one of her secrets is switching what moisturizer she uses. “I make sure I always moisturize. Some people find a favorite product and stick with it for years, but I swap between moisturizers every week, so my skin doesn’t get too used to one formula and becomes immune to its benefits.”

5. She Stays Motivated

Shayk is open about her love of a balanced lifestyle. She tells Yahoo that one of the biggest parts of maintaining her lifestyle is exercise. Shayk says that she stays motivated to workout and always pushes herself. “If you decide that you want to eat all those crazy meals, you have to balance it with working out, so you always have to motivate yourself. You cannot wake up and see yourself in the mirror and think ‘I look great so I can just relax’, you have to always push yourself to be better.”

Irina Shayk, the supermodel and actress who appeared on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, not to mention runways for Miu Miu, Bottega Veneta, Marc Jacobs, and many more, knows how to stay fit. It’s part of the job. She showed off the proof with a photo on Instagram of her in a swimsuit, captioning it “MIA” for Miami. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Irina Shayk 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 Cardio

"I hate traditional cardio. Running is my worst nightmare," Irina told Yahoo, but she still does it: "Cardio's always good. It makes you sweat, it's the best.” “The Department of Health and Human Services also recommends getting 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week, or a combination of moderate and vigorous activity. Being active 30 minutes a day on most days of the week can help you meet the guidelines,” says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Works Out in Her Hotel Room

“I’m in hotel rooms most of the time, and it can be hard to find a hotel with a nice gym,” Shayk told Vogue. “It was important for me to have a workout I could do in my room.” She added: “If you’re feeling jet lagged, or too lazy to get dressed, you can basically watch TV and do these moves.” One, says Vogue: “Grab a pillow for balance, and place your left leg straight behind you on the bed with your toe pointed. Bend your standing knee and lean your torso slightly forward. Then, lift up your left leg slowly and bring it out to the side, tapping it briefly back down on the bed before lifting it again and bringing it back straight behind you. Keep your arms tight, and engage the core, butt, hips, and thighs. Perform 15 to 20 reps, then switch sides.”

3. She Eats Clean Before Shoots

Shayk eats soups and salads before shoots. “Eating raw vegetables and fruits is a great way of incorporating more fiber into our diet, and this includes leafy greens. When you include fiber in your daily diet, you can help prevent obesity and type 2 Diabetes, as well as aid in healthy digestion,” says our sister site Eat This, Not That! "To increase your fiber intake when you reach for the salad, try adding some tomatoes, carrots, or cucumbers.”

4. She Loves the Beach

You can run on the beach or: “Nobody ever said lying on the beach was the only way to relax. When choosing a vacation destination, look into a spot where you can go hiking, zip lining or even country line dance the night away — whatever moves you,” says the Mayo Clinic. “When looking at hotel or vacation rentals, spend some time exploring online to see what's around. Consider whether there are sidewalks, bike lanes, mass transit options or amenities you'd enjoy within walking distance.”

5. She Helps Those Less Fortunate

1. She Lives A Balanced Life

Shayk may be a model, but she tells Vogue that she doesn’t put herself on “model diets.” She says that she focuses on living a balanced lifestyle. “I drink a lot of water, but I don't do diets,” she said. “People have this opinion of models that they don't eat - they'd soon stop thinking that if they saw me in a restaurant. I eat ice cream and cake, but it's a question of balance. If I eat something like that, I feel much better afterwards if I spend a few hours in the gym.”

2. She Works Out In Her Hotel Rooms

Shayk’s job means she has to travel all over the world. Unfortunately, she doesn’t always have time to workout. In order to stay in shape while traveling, Shayk tells Vogue that she has found exercises she can do in her room or at home. “I’m in hotel rooms most of the time, and it can be hard to find a hotel with a nice gym,” she explained. “It was important for me to have a workout I could do in my room.”

3. She Loves Martial Arts

Shayk revealed some of her exercise secrets to People. She says that she does a lot of martial arts and fighting workouts for cardio. “I work out a lot. I do boxing, I do a little jiu jitsu which I am obsessed with. It is so much fun [and] I have the best trainer.”

4. She Loves Barre Exercises

Shayk tells Women’s Health that she likes to do barre exercises, particularly whenever she travels. “I try to work out in my hotel room or at work during breaks, focusing on simple barre moves that don’t need any equipment and really work my arms and bum. These lengthening exercises also help to stretch me out and help clear any water retention, which I tend to get after long-haul flights.”

5. She Keeps Her Skin Clean

Shayk has amazing skin, and she does a lot of things to take care of it. She revealed some of her secrets to Women’s Health. “I wash my face twice a day, religiously,” she says. “I like my skin to feel as clean as possible all the time. I don’t even use foundation because it actually makes my face feel dirty."

Irina Baeva, the model known for Vino el amor and Amor dividido, is getting some sun before the Latino Wall Street conference. “Meet me in Puerto Rico!,” she captioned one swimsuit photo. “Splash.

1. She Drinks Coffee

Irina shared an image of her pouring a foamy coffee. “Both regular and decaf coffee seem to have a protective effect on your liver. Research shows that coffee drinkers are more likely to have liver enzyme levels within a healthy range than people who don’t drink coffee,” reports Johns Hopkins. “Dark roast coffee decreases breakage in DNA strands, which occur naturally but can lead to cancer or tumors if not repaired by your cells.”

2. She Reads to Relax

Irina shared a photo of herself reading a book poolside. “Much needed,” she captioned it. (The title was Malibu Rising.) “Your brain is similar to a muscle — you need to use it or you lose it. There are many things that you can do to keep your brain in shape, such as doing crossword puzzles or Sudoku, reading, playing cards or putting together a jigsaw puzzle. Consider it cross-training your brain. So incorporate different activities to increase the effectiveness,” says the Mayo Clinic.

3. She Loves Beach Days

“Beach days,” Irina captioned one photo of her having fun in the sun. The beach has some major health benefits. “The sand will work to exfoliate skin, the salt water will detoxify pores once the sun opens them up, and the iodine in the water will destroy any bacteria in your skin that can cause blemishes. Just make sure to keep yourself protected from too much sun, by wearing sunscreen,” reports UNH. “Spending as little time as 10 minutes in the sun, you can absorb an entire day’s worth of vitamin D! The extra vitamin D you absorb throughout your day at the beach will be stored in your body to be used later.”

4. She Eats Sushi

“Opting for sushi with brown rice, a whole grain, is a health-conscious move,” says the Cleveland Clinic. “You’re going to get more health benefits from the fiber, from more B vitamins, magnesium, selenium and some other minerals,” ​​Dietitian Maxine Smith, RD, LD told the site, which adds: “In contrast, regular sushi rice contains added salt and vinegar and is starchier.” “That’s what helps pack it together,” Smith says. “It’s processed. Any grain that is more processed, where the outside bran part of the grain is removed, it’s going to be less healthy.”

5. She is Grateful

Weeks ago, she was “Celebrating ❤️‍🔥 29. I couldn't be happier and more grateful to life and the Universe for all the blessings ✨ thanks to everyone who made this day so beautiful and full of love ❤️ and to you my love @gabrielsoto, for surprising me, pampering me, loving me and making me feel special every day of my life.

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.”
