The weekends just aren’t long enough for actress Jennie Garth, and considering how much fun she’s having, we don’t blame her for feeling that way. Garth, 51, shared a reel of herself happily playing in the pool, wearing a bright pink bikini and a big smile. “Who doesn’t want the weekend to be over? 🙋🏼‍♀️,” she captioned the post. “You look great Jennie, and super happy! 🙌” a fan commented. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Garth stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. Fruit and Vegetables

Garth enjoys a balanced diet with lots of vegetables and fruit. “I eat oats in almond milk, and add almond slivers, blueberries, strawberries, chia seeds on top,” she says. “But I eat the oats right after I pour the oat milk on them, even before they are softened. I love the crunch of it. [For lunch] a salad. On a day when I am eating well, everything I can find goes into my salad: Avocado, tomatoes, nuts, and for sweetness, I like to add green apple into the mix.”

2. She Plays Golf

Garth loves outdoor activities, especially golf. “For exercise, I do a lot of stretching,” she says. “I also love to get outside any chance I get, and right now I am into golf! It's a great activity both mentally and physically because you can walk the course. It keeps me sharp too since you really have to focus. But mostly I love it because it's a way to spend time in nature and see beautiful vistas and trees. And there is a lot of walking involved!”

3. Lots of Yogurt

Garth enjoys protein-packed Greek yogurt for a healthy and filling snack. "I'm just taking care of myself: Eating less, exercising more, drinking a lot of coconut water,” she says. “I eat a lot of Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt in the morning, salads and proteins the rest of the day and maybe a cupcake if I've been a good girl. I don't believe in depriving yourself of things you want."

4. Mexican Food

Garth and her family love Mexican food and Trader Joe’s snacks. “We love Mexican food in our house, and though it's not the healthiest, you can make a taco with lots of vegetables,” she says. “I love the vegan cheese, and I'll make a tortilla with vegan cheese, like Daiya, which is my current favorite! My favorite treat right now is the chocolate-covered almonds from Trader Joe's. I am a ‘phase’ person and I go through phases when I get stuck on a food and enjoy it until I get sick of it. And right now I am stuck on those!”

5. Regular Therapy

Garth has regular therapy sessions to help support her mental health. “I’ve been in therapy since I was in my early 20s,” she says. “I’ve learned so much about myself and how to take care of myself. When you do have mental issues, whatever they are, you really do feel like you’re alone. You feel like nobody else thinks the way you think, or has the struggles you have. But we all have the same struggles.”

Penny Lane is one of the winners of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s yearly contest: the SI Swim Search, for 2023. From the looks of a video she posted on Instagram in July, Lane is a great fit. In it, she is seen modeling in the SI Swim fashion show. She captioned the post, “Still pinching myself for waking down the @si_swimsuit runway! What a beautiful experience filled with so much positivity. Thank you Sports illustrated @theswimfluencenetwork for making this a reality.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Penny Lane stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Meditates

Lane shared some of her favorite wellness practices in this Instagram post. One thing she likes to do is meditate. The Mayo Clinic states that meditation has a lot of benefits. “Meditation can give you a sense of calm, peace and balance that can benefit both your emotional well-being and your overall health. You can also use it to relax and cope with stress by refocusing your attention on something calming. Meditation can help you learn to stay centered and keep inner peace.”

2. She Swims

Lane loves to swim to stay in shape. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself in the water. Lane shared this set of photos of herself snorkeling in the Palm Heights Grand Cayman. She captioned the post, “This was such an arm pinching moment. We were snorkelling around the coral Reef and this beautiful turtle came out of nowhere and swam with us.”

3. She Does Full-Body Workouts

Lane makes sure to workout on a regular basis. One thing she likes to do is do full-body workouts. She shared some of her favorite exercises in this video she posted on Instagram. In it, Lane is seen hanging from a bar pedaling her legs, leaning forward and back, using battle ropes, and doing arm and leg raises on a machine. She captioned the post, “Full body burn.” Doing full-body workouts ensures that your entire body is challenged.

4. She Paddleboards

Swimming isn’t the only thing Lane likes to do by the water. She also likes to go paddleboarding. Lane shared these photos on Instagram of herself paddleboarding in the Palm Heights Grand Cayman. Paddleboarding can help you build core muscles. The Mayo Clinic states that having a strong core is important. “Your core is the central part of your body. It includes your pelvis, lower back, hips and stomach. The stomach muscles sometimes are called abs. Core exercises train the muscles in your core to work in harmony. This leads to better balance and steadiness, also called stability. Stability is important whether you're on the playing field or doing regular activities. In fact, most sports and other physical activities depend on stable core muscles.”

5. She Eats Locally Sourced Food

In her wellness Instagram post, Lane mentions that she eats locally sourced foods. According to Virtua Health, local foods have a lot of benefits. “The main health benefit of locally grown food is that it’s fresher. Fruits and vegetables begin to lose their nutrients within 24 hours of being picked, so fresher produce is more nutritious. In addition, locally grown food is picked at its peak ripeness, when it’s most dense with nutrients.”

Mariana Morais is showing off her ab-fab figure – in a two-piece exercise set. In a new social media post, the fitness influencer flaunts her fantastic figure in a brown sports bra and leggings. “Self Progress & Development is not always linear. Sometimes we take steps back & that’s just a sign to course correct so we can leap forward. If 2024 wasn’t the year you expected, use it as an opportunity to learn, grow, & carry on. It’s you VS you - continue to try, focus on consistency > perfection & you will prevail 🤎 rooting for us all to strengthen our mind & bodies this year,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Strength Training

Mariana relies on old-school strength training to keep her body toned. “Training till failure instead of reps + taking my ab routine up a notch by incorporating weighted exercises,” she wrote about one of her workout tactics. “I can feel my muscles being challenged and am in tune with my movements.” According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

  • Develop strong bones
  • Manage your weight
  • Enhance your quality of life
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills

Prioritizing Digestion and Getting Blood Work Done

Other healthy habits? “Prioritizing digestion,” she writes in the same post. “Making sure I get enough fiber & starting off every morning with a juice cleanse. This has helped me feel so much better everyday.” She also gets regular blood work done. “So important to check your levels and know what’s going on in your body routinely! Don’t skip the doc apts, always better to be preventative.”

Hiking

Mariana enjoys hiking. “Elevation therapy,” she captioned a post from one of her fitness adventures. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance
  • Improving your heart health
  • Decreasing the risk of some respiratory issues

Mariana does reformer Pilates. “POV: Stepping into the prettiest torture chamber,” she wrote across a video of herself at the studio. 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.

Emsculpt NEO

Mariana recently got an aesthetic body treatment, Emsculpt NEO. “I’ve heard all the rage about the benefits to spot reducing fat & toning muscle so I had to give it a try to target those pesky lower abs. It was a 10/10 & a great addition to my workout routine,” she wrote.

Needs Intro

She’s Consistent

Last year, Culpo was preparing for her wedding. She told E! News that she made sure to be consistent with her wellness in order to prepare. “Really trying to dial in [on] what I eat, how I workout, the workouts that I do. Trying to get them in consistently because you only get married once and I want to feel my best. But this past season it was just hard being so far away from my normal routine and where I typically live."

She Keeps Her Skin Healthy While Traveling

Culpo has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it, even while traveling. “I don't wear any makeup when traveling," she says to Travel + Leisure. "That's one rule because I do feel like you will have a higher chance of breaking out if you are wearing a full face of makeup. A few things I always have with me is some sort of a spray. I love Dr. Barbara Sturm or Caudalie or La Mer. I also absolutely love traveling with a makeup wipe, the Neutrogena wipes are great. Something to just take off the sweat you build up.”

She Keeps Her Skincare Simple

Culpo shared her skincare routines with Byrdie. She says that she keeps her morning and night routine simple. “I am always trying out new products, so what I gravitate toward is often changing. At night, I usually use an oil and a serum. Right now, I love the Clarins Double Serum. In the morning, I use a Vitamin C serum and an SPF, and, typically, I just rinse my skin with warm water instead of using a cleanser. It is something I swear by—it allows for the oils on my skin from sleeping to absorb naturally.”

She Uses Products With Vitamins

Culpo shared some of her favorite skincare products with Byrdie. She says that she uses ones that have vitamins in them. “I have noticed a huge difference in my skin with vitamin C and E. I love the Good Janes H2OMyGod Moisturizer—it's sort of an all-in-one moisturizer that has vitamin C and collagen peptides. As for vitamin E, I actually just purchase the oil from the drugstore. It is super cheap and great to put on any red marks I may get from an occasional breakout. The healing process is so much quicker when I am using Vitamin E oil.”

She Packs Healthy Snacks

Culpo makes sure to eat healthy. She shared some of the snacks she packs with her with Travel + Leisure. "I love the Kind bars. I love any sort of nuts, to be honest with you. They are a go-to snack for me. I would say Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% and some almonds would be perfect! Also, electrolytes to stay hydrated or some sort of collagen beauty powder or something."

Abigail Ratchford’s amazing body has helped her become one of the most famous models on the internet. The 32-year-old, who boasts over 9.1 million followers on Instagram alone, attributes her measurement-defying body to a few simple habits. Here is everything she does to stay fit at 32.

She Follows 4 Diet Rules

Abigail swears that abiding by simple rules helps her stay in shape. “I can’t diet. That just doesn’t work for me,” she told New Beauty. “I started to be healthier by first cutting out soda. Then, I stopped eating after 7 p.m. Finally, I started really watching my portions so I was eating fewer calories every day. And water—lots and lots of water.”

She UsesMyFitnessPal

Abigail explains being accountable for what she eats is crucial. While it’s not “rocket science,” she does use the MyFitnessPal app to track her eating. “I’m the type of person who likes to eat what I want. The app can help anyone do that—you can still eat great food, you just eat less of it,” she added New Beauty.

Pilates

Abigail is a fan of Pilates. “Group workout classes are so big right now, but I always get nervous around other people in settings like that. I have to go at my own pace without a bunch of distractions so, for me, Pilates with a one-on-one instructor works best. It’s not cheap, but then you also aren’t tempted to skip,” she said She added to Men’s Fitness via Muscle & Fitness that the workout “keeps you long and lean” — and the Mayo Clinic agrees. They say 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, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

Balanced Diet

“I love green juices and smoothies. Sometimes I’ll put some protein powder in the morning—I feel like the mix of vegetables, and vitamins and stuff that’s in them, really gives me a lot of energy in the morning. I love BBQ food—my ultimate cheat is a pulled pork sandwich, sweet potato fries, and macaroni and cheese from this great place in LA,” she told Men’s Fitness.

Strength Training

Ratchford also lifts weights. “Initially, I made the mistake that a lot of girls do and I was only doing cardio. I just really didn’t see too much change in my body. I’ve been listening to my girlfriends who are in great shape and they say you have to do weight training, you have to go in and do squats. That’s my new thing—I’ve been doing some resistance training, circuit training,” she told Men’s Fitness. The Mayo Clinic explains that strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

Develop strong bones

Manage your weight

Enhance your quality of life

Manage chronic conditions

Sharpen your thinking skills
