Kelly Gale is heating up the tropics! The former Victoria’s Secret Angel is steaming up social media with her latest snaps, showing off her insane figure in a swimsuit. “What’s your bucket-list destination to go on vacation?” the 26-year-old model and actress captioned a series of snaps. What are her secrets for keeping herself so fit? Read on to see 9 of Kelly Gale’s top tips for staying 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. Exercise

Kelly regularly breaks a sweat. “Usually on my days off, and sometimes before going to set – I end up heading to pilates, boxing or jump rope and when that gets boring, I go rock climbing with friends or find some other activity we can tackle,” she revealed to V Magazine, adding to Grazia that she works out “for a few hours” and does “a lot” of walking.

2. Eat Clean and Healthy

Kelly dished to V about what she eats on a daily basis. “My diet generally consists of fresh, organic produce (all veggies, nuts, seafood, occasional eggs and lots of raw vegan dark chocolate) and superfoods everyday such as chlorella and spirulina. If I ever need an immune booster I have tons of ginger, tumeric and baobab,” she said. It “takes a while to get used to healthier foods if you’re used to eating crap, or if you have been brought up eating a certain kind of way,” she admitted. “To me, almost everything clean and healthy taste good and you can always play around and make it taste even better.” Another way she sets herself up for healthy eating success is preparation. “When I’m traveling, I always bring a big variety of healthy snacks and superfoods – usually opting for vegetables and fish or seafood when ordering food or on set.”

3. Don’t Count Calories or Rely on a Scale

Kelly doesn’t look at the numbers. “When it comes to both diet and exercise, I do have a few rules to keep my mind sane,” she explained to V. “One of which is not counting calories or weighing myself, it’s too easy to go crazy when you focus on numbers and if you are sticking to healthy foods and doing your utmost with exercising, there really is no reason to count numbers anyways.”

4. Avoid Cane Sugar

Another one of her rules has to do with the type of sugar she consumes. “I also have a hard rule against eating any cane sugar,” she revealed to V. “My mom is a doctor and cancer researcher, and has spoken to me too many times about the harm sugar has on one’s health for me to not completely cut it out.”

5. Find Healthy Versions of Your Favorite Foods

Kelly doesn’t use the term cheat meal. “It makes the meal seem ‘bad’ somehow, or like something you shouldn’t be having. I only eat foods that nourish my body, other foods I don’t even crave – but I do eat nourishing versions of the unhealthy stuff,” she told V. “Nice cream, which is ice cream made from bananas, chocolate that’s sweetened with coconut nectar, nut butters, popcorn etc. I just don’t believe that to be cheating, my body and soul needs it so there is no cheating. I guess the only cheat for me is an occasional night out drinking, which happens a few times a year.”

6. Exercise for Mental Health

Kelly emphasizes the importance of exercising for mental health benefits. “Mental health and physical health are one in the same for me – they go hand in hand. If you aren’t physically healthy, you won’t be mentally healthy either – and vice versa. The mind and body is connected and when one is off, the other suffers as well,” she told V. “If I’m feeling down for example, or anxious and stressed, a kick ass workout always makes me feel better.”

7. Take Ice Baths

In an Instagram Q&A, Kelly revealed a chilly secret to combating cellulite. “I’ve probably tried everything there is out there for cellulite,” she said. “Ice baths really work, but I have a million recommendations. But the ice bath is really good for it. It improves circulation.”

8. Drink Green Juice

Kelly starts her day with veggie juice. “I have a green juice in the morning – a big one – with kale, spinach, celery, cucumber, two lemons and lots of ginger,” she revealed to Grazia.

9. Meditate

Kelly is a big proponent of self care, relying on yoga, massage, and meditation to help relax both her body and mind. “I do wish more schools taught children at a younger age about the importance of physical activity for mental health. Talking more about it and setting up meditation classes at schools would make a tremendous amount of difference. I imagine such practices as a part of the regular curriculum would also greatly affect things like their school work and even making the overall environment a more friendly place with less bullying. Mental health issues are very real and can often times start at a young age,” she told V.

How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 6 ways Katie Sigmond 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 Golfs

Katie’s main form of fitness is golfing. “Golf date?” she captioned a post. Why should you consider picking up a club? A comprehensive review published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that golf's health benefits are extensive, including mind, body, and even lifespan. Benefits include improved longevity, decreased risk of developing heart disease or suffering a stroke, good mental health, and improved strength and balance.

2. She Wake Surfs

Katie recently started wake surfing, also called wake boarding. She captioned this post: “teach me how to wake surf.” According to the Australian government’s Better Health, surfing, which is similar to wake boarding minus the paddling, provides many health benefits including cardiovascular fitness, and leg and core strength. “Once you’re standing up on the board, strong legs and a strong core will keep you up,” they say.

3. She Jet Skis

Katie also enjoys jet skiing. “Be my travel buddy,” she captioned a photo of herself out in the water. According to Health Fitness Revolution, the average 150-pound rider will burn a surprising 238 calories during a half-hour ride. The sport is also great for cardiovascular endurance.

4. She Soaks in the Hot Tub

Katie loves soaking in hot water. “You’ll find me here,” she captioned a post. How can soaking in the hot tub, similar to baths do your body and mind good? It has been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that it may even boast cardiovascular benefits.

5. She Snow Boards

Katie also enjoys snow boarding. “Learned my lesson from last year,” she joked in this photo, wearing a swimsuit while on the slopes. According to the University of Rochester, snowboarding, like skiing, is a great cardiovascular workout. “Because they are also weight-bearing exercises, they strengthen your bones as they tone your muscles,” they say. “Cardiovascular or aerobic exercises also work to reduce your risk for chronic diseases, and lower blood pressure. They also help you maintain a healthy body weight. Through regular aerobic exercise like skiing and snowboarding, you lower your risk of developing conditions like diabetes and heart disease, having a stroke, and perhaps even getting cancer.”

6. She Works Out

Katie also relies on good old-fashioned exercise to keep her in shape. Physical activity is anything that gets your body moving. Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and 2 days of muscle-strengthening activity, according to the current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.

Kohan makes sure to eat healthy. One type of food she enjoys is seafood. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself enjoying a meal at a restaurant. In one photo, she enjoys a piece of fish. In another, she enjoys oysters and crab. The Washington State Department Of Health states, “Eating fish is an important source of omega-3 fatty acids. These essential nutrients keep our heart and brain healthy. Two omega-3 fatty acids found in fish are EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Our bodies don't produce omega-3 fatty acids so we must get them through the food we eat. Omega-3 fatty acids are found in every kind of fish, but are especially high in fatty fish. Some good choices are salmon, trout, sardines, herring, canned mackerel, canned light tuna, and oysters.”

2. She Hikes

Gale tells Vogue that she likes to make a certain drink to boost her immune system. “My go-to drink in the winter to fight colds and flus is about 3.4 ounces of water mixed with 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, lots of cayenne pepper and cinnamon, one lemon, and 1 teaspoon of raw honey. I make it the night before, and drink it first thing every morning on an empty stomach. On top of strengthening your immune system, this concoction also wakes you up, giving you lots of energy, and boosts your metabolism. It’s my power drink!”

3. She Keeps Her Skin Moisturized

Gale has amazing skin. She tells Vogue that one of her secrets is keeping it moisturized. “My skin gets really dry in the cold, so to keep it soft and hydrated, I spread avocado oil all over my body every day after I shower. I find it works even better than coconut oil! For my lips, which also get very dry, I use Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour cream.”

4. She Works Out Her Core

Gale is obviously a gorgeous woman. However, she doesn’t always put a lot of emphasis on her looks. She tells Vogue that she puts a lot of value on her inner beauty, and loves getting compliments on her personality and other things. “I feel beautiful when I get compliments for things other than my looks; like when people tell me I have a good sense of humour or that I'm a kind person.”

2. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Being a model, Gale has to have a good skincare routine, and she clearly gets good results. She opened up about her skincare tricks and tips in an interview with Vogue, saying, “I'm lucky to be born with good skin and hair, so I just use Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream every morning and evening after basic cleansing. My lips tend to get very dry; no matter how much water I drink or lip balm I use, so I use Aloe Lips to keep them soft. When I'm tired or stressed I spritz my face with a Vitamin E mist or rose water -- it's instantly refreshing.”

3. She Does A Variety Of Workouts

Gale works out on a regular basis. She tells Vogue that she does a variety of different exercises each week. “I work out for one to two and a half hours, six days a week, and switch up the routines, alternating between spinning, boxing, running and jump rope for cardio.

4. She Cooks Healthy Meals

In addition to working out, Gale also eats pretty healthy. She tells Vogue that she likes to cook a lot of her own meals. “Cooking is one of my biggest passions; I cook almost everything I eat. My breakfast is plain yoghurt with berries and homemade, unsweetened, wheat-free, gluten-free muesli, or a green smoothie. For lunch, I eat an undressed chicken or shrimp salad and for dinner I almost always have a salad with some form of protein.”

5. She Works Out First Thing In The Morning

In an interview with ELLE, Gale broke down her daily routine, specifically her diet and fitness specialties. She says that the first thing she does each day is go to the gym. "I started my day quite early with a workout alongside Michael Olajide at Aerospace before breakfast. It's always the first thing I do in the morning: If I don't have to work or travel, I usually go every single morning to box."

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.”

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?

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.
