Too Hot To Handle star Kayla Richart is looking back on a beautiful vacation in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Richart shared pictures of herself taking an outdoor shower surrounded by lush greenery, wearing a dark green bikini that showcased her fit yet curvy figure. “Take me back 🌴,” she captioned the post. “Wowww,” responded Perfect Match star Georgia Hassarati. “Never failed to amaze us,” said another fan. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Richart stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. Vegan Lifestyle

Richart follows a plant-based diet, and loves cooking her own food. “Plant-based diets offer all the necessary protein, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals for optimal health, and are often higher in fiber and phytonutrients,” says Katherine D. McManus, MS, RD, LDN. “However, some vegans may need to add a supplement (specifically vitamin B12) to ensure they receive all the nutrients required.”


2. Healthy Snacks

Richart loves nutritious snacks such as edamame (soybeans) and fresh fruit. “Soy products can be a part of a healthy eating pattern when eaten as an alternative to red meat or processed meats that are high on cholesterol and saturated fats and can increase your risk of heart disease,” says Arta Shirkhodai, MD, an internal medicine physician at Scripps Coastal Medical Center Vista.

3. She Meditates

Richart is a proponent of regular meditation sessions for health and happiness. “Today was such an amazing day✨ My friends and I visited the vortexes of Sedona, they are believed to be spiritual locations where the energy is right to facilitate prayer, meditation, and healing. Along the way we picked up some crystals. When we got there I sat as the sun was setting and had the most surreal meditation ever, I also cleansed and charged my new crystals. The vibes were immaculate,” she captioned an Instagram post.

4. Smoothie Bowls

Richart makes smoothie bowls with almond milk, bananas, apples, strawberries, and raspberries. "I would say it's a really easy way to get a lot of good fruits and vegetables. You can get a lot of nutrients packed into one little glass," says Mayo Clinic dietician Lorraine Fye, RDN, CNSC, IFNCP. "An unhealthy smoothie, it would be one that maybe is just all fruit or has a lot of fruit juice — one that's really laden with added sugar and that's not very balanced. The healthy smoothie — we're really looking for that balance. So you want good carbohydrates, good proteins and good healthy fats."

5. She’s Living That Libra Life

Richart is passionate about astrology, and research shows hobbies can beneficially impact health and wellness. “I’m a Libra. So I’m actually a double Libra,” she says. “My rising and my sun are in Libra and I feel like that shines through a lot, especially the art of seduction and my flirtatious side. I also feel like I find balance in everything, and I treat everyone fairly. My moon is in Pisces, so I can be really, really emotional too.”

Kayla Richart is taking mirror selfies – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the influencer and Too Hot to Handle star flaunts her amazing figure in an exercise set, while giving her followers a glimpse of what she has been up to lately. “My life be like,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “So beautiful,” commented one of her followers. “In love with you,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Vegan Diet

Kayla maintains a plant-based diet. Some of her go-to meals include vegan sushi, protein shakes, smoothie bowls with granola and fruit, plant-based fast food, vegan Pho, and even vegan pizza from Domino’s Pizza.

She Meditates

Kayla meditates with crystals. “Today was such an amazing day✨ My friends and I visited the vortexes of Sedona, they are believed to be spiritual locations where the energy is right to facilitate prayer, meditation, and healing. Along the way we picked up some crystals. When we got there I sat as the sun was setting and had the most surreal meditation ever, I also cleansed and charged my new crystals. The vibes were immaculate,” she captioned an Instagram post. “When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress,” says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:

  • Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
  • Building skills to manage your stress
  • Increasing self-awareness
  • Focusing on the present
  • Reducing negative emotions
  • Increasing imagination and creativity
  • Increasing patience and tolerance
  • Lowering resting heart rate
  • Lowering resting blood pressure
  • Improving sleep quality

Hiking

On the same trip to Sedona, Kayla went hiking, “one of the best ways to get exercise,” says the National Parks Service. “No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between.” Some of the physical benefits include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems. It also offers many mental health benefits, according to a Stanford University study.

Swimming

Kayla spends a lot of time at the beach and loves going swimming, a great form of aerobic physical activity, per the CDC. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.

Walking

Kayla makes sure to get her steps in. In one photo from her recent post, she poses on an outlook. Why should you walk? One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

2. She Wants To Raise Awareness

When it comes to acting, Harold wants to represent people. During her time on Eastenders, her character developed a brain tumor. She opened up about what this was like to The One Show. “It’s been a massive responsibility to be given this storyline by the show,” she said. Just because it’s affected so many people. Especially me starting the story, I didn’t realise just how many that it does and how little awareness there is and how little funding there actually is for brain tumour research.”

3. She Hikes

Harold loves to spend time outside. She does a lot of outdoor activities to stay in shape. One thing Harold likes to do is go hiking. While on a trip to Greece, she made sure to hike through the local spots. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself on top of a rock. She captioned the post, “Take me back.”

Another outdoor activity Harold enjoys doing is going swimming. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself in a pool. Harold captioned it, “I need some sun.” Healthdirect.gov reports that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming is a sport that you can do in a squad or independently, at any time of year. Being low-impact, swimming is a great option for people recovering from injury. Swimming has many health benefits including increasing your fitness, muscle strength and wellbeing.”

5. She Spends Time Outside In Different Places

Harold spends a lot of time outside. Her Instagram is full of photos of herself outside. Harold also travels a lot, and goes to a lot of different places. She shared this photo of herself in the countryside of England. She shared this photo of herself walking by the pool, overlooking mountains. Harold also shared this photo of herself in the forest.

Fernanda Castillo, the Mexican actress, is back from a trip to Acapulco. And according to her most recent Instagram post, she’s missing it already. Castillo posted a selfie of herself in a multicolored bathing suit by the pool. She captioned the post, “Return me to Acapulco. To the laughter, the Pepo dances, the delicious food, the moments with Liam, but above all, always bring me back together with these people I love and who make my life more beautiful! Thank you for this celebration of life @erikhayser @pkastillo @anitadelrey @harfush @tamaramazarrasa @rossananf @pp_ayala @barbarapay @wuerever.” (That’s roughly translated.)

2. She Loves Baths

Castillo always makes time for herself to relax and unwind. Her way of doing so is by running a bath. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself in the tub. Baths have a lot of benefits, according to this post from The Cleveland Clinic. “Taking baths has great physical and mental health benefits,” family medicine provider, Amy Zack, MD, says to the clinic. “One benefit is cleanliness. Bathing cleans your skin, helping you avoid irritation, inflammation and sores caused by dead skin cell accumulation. The bacterial and fungal load from contact in your environment can also accumulate, increasing the risk of infection.”

3. She Hikes

For Hewitt, fitness is all about variety. “I try to switch it up a bit,” she told OK! Magazine. “I’ve found that if every week I do something different it tricks my muscles into not getting used to doing any one thing. I’ve been doing pilates, I’ve been doing yoga, I’ve done just plain old walking. I wear 10 pound weights on my ankles while I’m working just so that as I’m moving during the day I’m constantly building muscle. It’s not great for your back but I’m doing it anyway. I do a booty workout thing that I just did for Shape, which was really fun. And I do Zumba. I have DVDs and I dance around like a crazy person in my house.”

She Builds Confidence

Hewitt tells People that she wants to build her confidence up. “I think I’m a work in progress,” she admits. “[But] I feel it’s so much better than [it was] a year-and-a-half ago, and I feel like in another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today.”

In addition to her impressive acting ability, the star is a total bombshell and has one of the fittest figures in Hollywood. Here are the top 5 habits that help her stay fit at 27.

Water Skiing

Sydney has been water skiing since she was a toddler. “The moment I could walk, my mom put me on what’s called a U-board to learn how to ski,” she told Women’s Health. “I remember that whenever we would go by the docks of my grandma’s or my cousin’s house, I’d wave. I felt so cool because I could take off one hand. That’s my earliest memory of skiing, but I’ve been doing it as long as I can remember. It’s my favorite.” How does it help her achieve her amazing body? “It’s a lot of upper body strength, it’s balance, it’s core, it’s legs—you get tired really fast,” she says. “I see such a change in my body after an entire summer of [skiing]. My arms are stronger, more sculpted. My abs are rock solid. But I never look at it as a workout because it is so much fun,” she said.

Morning Workouts

Sydney mixes up her exercise routine, but likes to get workouts over with early in the day. “I like to work out in the morning, so I’ll either go for a run or I’ll go to Solidcore,” says Sydney. The high-intensity, low-impact Pilates-inspired workout “makes me feel so strong, but also elongated,” Sydney said about her sweat sessions. “I feel so good afterwards.”

Self-Care

Sydney engages in self-care activities. “I love to paint, and I love to read,” she said. “Those are the activities that are just for me.” One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years than those who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

She Walks and Hikes

One of the ways she treats her anxiety is by spending time outdoors with her dog, Tank. She takes him on walks or hikes. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

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.

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.
