How does she stay so fit?

1. She Prioritizes Her Health

Jean prioritizes her health. “Health and wellbeing is going to be big for me this year. The last two years has been a lot of parties, drinking, mingling, and going up and down to London, so I’ve not been looking after myself properly because I haven’t had time,” she told The Sunday Post.

2. She Quit Drinking and Went Vegan

During an Instagram video, Jean revealed that she lost 8 pounds in a single month by ditching booze and animal products. "So Dry January is done as is veganuary which I really enjoyed. Giving up meat wasn’t too much of a problem for me. I have missed dairy; cheese, butter, chocolate but it really hasn’t been that bad and I have to tell you the benefits,” she said. “Honestly my skin’s really cleared up, I can see my cheekbones. My gut health is amazing.I’m sleeping really well. "I don’t know whether that’s a result of not eating meat or not drinking but I’ve really enjoyed this month and I’m actually going to continue with a plant-based diet and not drinking. So I’m going to go for 90 days and who knows I might continue for the year. I’ve also lost eight pounds which is amazing. I’ve been going to the gym as well. It’s just encouraged me to lead a bit of a healthier lifestyle and be a bit more present."

3. She Tries to Stay Away From Social Media

Jean tries to avoid social media. “I can’t be too invested in social media. It’s there, I dip in and out when I want to and I’m very in control of that,” she told The Sunday Post. “And I want to keep it that way. I can’t imagine what it’s like when you lose that control. I think I’m just the type of person that would step away. If I’m being honest, I like to be liked – I’ve always been like that since I was a kid. So, when people don’t like me, it gets to me. I don’t care if people criticise what I’m wearing, but when people come for you as a person, or dislike you for who you are, that does get to me. If more focus comes on me and my personal life as my career grows, I would have to step away from social media more. I’m not willing to go down that path. It’s dangerous,” she continued. “I’m glad success has come to me at the age I am now. If I was 20 I don’t think I could cope with cyber-bullying, judgement, nastiness. I don’t know how I would have navigated that, I really don’t. Now, I see it for what it is – it only exists in a handset, that’s what I have to remind myself.”

4. She Rides Horses

Jean loves riding horses. “I’m just utterly in love with Daisy. Riding along Benone beach was so beautiful,” she captioned a photo of a ride on the beach in Ireland. According to the American Heart Association, riding horses is great for your health. Not only does it boost cardiovascular health, but builds core strength, burns calories, and lowers blood pressure. It is also great for your mental health as it helps relax you.

5. She Exercises

Jean exercises for physical and mental health. “I find my mental health is so much better when I feel good physically. When I give myself an hour at the gym, it’s a bit like meditating because it’s the place where I can switch off,” she told The Sunday Post. “Running is the thing that focuses me, and a half-marathon before I’m 40 would be another item ticked off my bucket list.

“Sick of this ‘50 is the new...’” she Tweeted shortly after J. Lo’s Super Bowl appearance in 2020. “50 has always been 50. Women were previously just expected to shrivel and accept their husk.

1. She Starts Her Wellness Routine In The Morning

Andersson broke down her daily routine to GetTheGloss. She says that her wellness routine begins first thing in the morning. She says that she loves meditating and green juice each morning. “I wake up between 5 and 6 am and start my day off with meditation. I then light incense and my assistant makes sure I have a fresh juice made from celery, kale, ginger, apple, ready first thing on an empty stomach.”

2. She Unwinds At Night

Andersson tells GetTheGloss that she likes to relax at night. She says that she’s also working on not using her phone too much. "After work I like to unwind with the gym, movies, reading and journaling and always use lavender spray on my pillow at night. Every day is different but I make sure I end my day without using my phone too much."

3. She Wants To Inspire Others

Andersson has gone through a lot in her life. She says that she wants to inspire others, and let them know that they aren’t alone. She revealed to GetTheGloss that she has changed her career to helping others. “I’ve had to have a lot of strength for the rocky life I’ve endured so far,” she says. “I’m a mental health advocate and public speaker, I raise awareness and fight for causes that pain me.

5. She’s All About Body Positivity

Andersson is an advocate for body positivity. She talked about the importance of it in this Instagram video. “I feel so sad that body positivity isn’t what it truly means anymore and that it overrides how good your mind feels and it’s only down to the exterior of us,” she wrote. “Body positivity, to me, is feeling comfortable in our own skin no matter what shape or size and accepting every part of us. It’s also about having a healthy mindset and approach to ourselves.”

Puerto Rican star Gabriela Berlingeri is enjoying some much-needed beach time. The jewelry designer and girlfriend of superstar Bad Bunny shared pictures of herself posing in crystal-clear waters in a green bikini and white sun hat. “More pics from the cam,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Berlingeri 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. Lots of Swimming

One glance at Berlingeri’s social media shows how much she loves swimming. “Swimming is one of the few activities that work your whole body,” says the British Heart Foundation. “Breaststroke, backstroke, front crawl, butterfly and even doggy paddle get your legs and arms moving. This in turn works your back and core muscles.”

2. Outdoorsy Type

Berlingeri is no couch potato—she enjoys being outside as much as possible. “I take many of my individual clients and classes outdoors,” says certified fitness instructor ShaNay Norvell. “They often tell me it doesn’t feel like as much of a workout as running on the treadmill, even though they are still getting a great calorie burn.”

3. Snacking on Mango

Berlingeri loves fresh sliced mango for an on-the-go snack, which is a great source of vitamin C. "Vitamin C is good for immunity," says Maya Vadiveloo, assistant professor in the department of nutrition and food sciences at the University of Rhode Island. "It's an antioxidant so it can help with oxidative stress in the body. The primary benefit, in addition to being a really good source of vitamin C, is that (mangoes) are a decent source of vitamin A, folate and are pretty high in fiber, which is beneficial for colon cancer prevention, heart disease and weight control."

4. She’s a Singer

Singing and performing are creative endeavors very important to Berlingeri. “Singing at the Estadio Azteca was something I never in my life imagined doing, let alone daring,” she says. “I don't know how I did it, but I did it. I'm thankful for the people who motivated me to achieve it because I couldn't do it alone. Thanks to my mother for giving birth to me in Puerto Rico and with my father for raising me on this island that I love so much.”

5. Blue Therapy

Berlingeri loves to be by the ocean as much as she can. Having access to blue space is shown to have mental health benefits. "Increased views of blue space is significantly associated with lower levels of psychological distress," says Amber L. Pearson, PhD, MPH, assistant professor of health geography and a member of MSU's Water Science Network.

From coffee perks to Pilates workouts, learn her daily habits for a balanced lifestyle.

Leonie Hanne is living her best life in Thailand – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the German model flaunts her fantastic figure in a $750 Missoni bathing suit while enjoying a boating day in the tropics. “She dreamed of a tropical adventure 🦋,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Stunning,” commented one of her followers. ”So beautiful,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Coffee

Leonie enjoys the perks of caffeine. In one of her posts from Thailand, she drinks a cup of coffee at the poolside. According to the Cleveland Clinic, drinking coffee in moderation has several benefits. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Pilates

Leonie does Pilates at the super exclusive London studio Pilates in the Clouds. 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.

At-Home Workouts

Leonie tries to get a workout in daily, preferably in the morning. I still try to get up early to maintain a sense of routine. I start every day with a quick at-home workout and a homemade acai bowl, before starting work on emails and content creation. I’ve been getting really into TikTok lately, it’s funny and keeps me feeling energised!” she told Arcadia.

Community

It takes a village, according to Leonie. “Community is key! The people you surround yourself with are more important than ever, as we are all trying to find ways to stay connected without being physically present. Speaking to people either on the phone or through social media can shift your mindset and motivation more than ever before,” she says.

Small, Healthy Habits

Leonie focuses on maintaining small, healthy habits. “Do something every day that brings you joy. Even if that means having something small to look forward to, like having your favourite snacks around the house or changing into an outfit that makes you feel good about yourself,” she says.

Sophie Piper is embracing island life – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Love Island beauty shows off her fantastic figure in a swimsuit during a tropical vacation at Kandima Maldives with Josh Ritchie. “Island life,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps taken at the picturesque resort. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

She Doesn't Go Under the Knife

Sophie claims she hasn’t gone under the knife. “It’s your own body, you can do what you want to,” she told Grazia, weighing in on the show’s reputation for girls getting work done. “I wouldn’t have surgery myself; I don’t want it. I’ve got such a low pain tolerance as well; I’d be squirming around.”

She Gets Her Steps In

Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Sophie loves paddle boarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and cardio. Water sports can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140-pound male and 436 calories for a female of the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

She Skis

When Sophie hits the mountains, she throws on a pair of skis. “Ski club,” she captioned a photo. Research has linked downhill skiing to several health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, the prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress, and the occurrence of memory deficits decline.

She Loves Group Fitness

“You’ve got to be body confident,” Sophie told Grazia. One of her favorite sweat methods? Group fitness. “A few gym classes can’t hurt,” she said.

She Goes Snorkeling

On her recent Maldives vacation, Sophie and Josh snorkeled in the crystal clear water. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Tammy Hembrow is a fitness influencer and expert. She has her own app, called Tammy Fit. Hembrow has a lot of challenges on her app. Recently, she advertised a challenge with a workout video on Instagram. Hembrow captioned the post, “We are 3 days into our first @tammyfitapp challenge of the year & I am more motivated than everrrrr. (Sign ups are still open if you haven’t joined yet - there’s still time to catch up!! - link in bio). Soooo happy seeing so many of my girlies (and guys) in this challenge doing it with me!! And I CANNOT wait to see everyone’s results at the end of the 8 weeks. We got thissss 💪🏼”

She Does Pulldowns

Hembrow is seen doing pulldowns in her Instagram video. Piedmont reports that pulldowns have a lot of benefits. “The lat pulldown is a fantastic exercise for strengthening the latissimus dorsi muscle, the broadest muscle in your back. This muscle promotes good posture and spinal stability. Form is crucial when performing a lat pulldown to prevent injury and reap the best results.”

She Lifts Weights

Hembrow is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that using weights to workout has a lot of 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.”

She Tracks Her Meals

Hembrow likes to track her meals on her app. She talked about the benefits of this in the caption of this “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. “Make sure to take advantage of the calorie/macro tracking features in the @tammyfitapp during this challenge guys. It can be really helpful in reaching specific goals quicker. And it also can help educate you on your food choices when it comes to nutrition, ratios, hidden calories, overeating or under eating etc. honestly I’d recommend any beginner try it out just to get a good feel for how you’re fuelling your body!! I feel like when people think of ‘meal tracking’ it can be seen as something that seems restrictive or something only bodybuilders do. When in reality it can be such a helpful tool and you can learn things that will actually encourage long term habits 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

She Loves Bananas

Tammy Hebrew has a banana snack.

Hembrow is seen enjoying bananas in her “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that bananas have a lot of benefits. “A single medium-sized banana offers about 32 mg of the mineral magnesium, which fulfills around 8% to 10% of your daily magnesium requirement. Magnesium is involved in many processes in your body, including: Blood pressure. Blood sugar levels. Building proteins. Maintaining bone. Muscle function. Nerve function.”

She Loves Cottage Cheese

Tammy Hebrew's snack the contains banana and cottage cheese.

Hembrow is seen enjoying her bananas with cottage cheese in the previous Instagram video. Cottage cheese is very healthy. UCLA Health reports, “Cottage cheese’s protein content and low calories make it an ideal food for weight management. Research shows that whether you are trying to lose weight or reduce your risk of overweight or obesity, eating a high-protein diet can help you feel full and satisfied for longer.”
