There are hardships that enrich, roads without preferential lanes that lead to exciting panoramas and important experiences, to know your limits and try to overcome them.

5. She Spends Time in the Sauna

“Sauna bathing, an activity that has been a tradition in Finland for thousands of years and mainly used for the purposes of pleasure and relaxation, is becoming increasingly popular in many other populations. Emerging evidence suggests that beyond its use for pleasure, sauna bathing may be linked to several health benefits, which include reduction in the risk of vascular diseases such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and neurocognitive diseases; nonvascular conditions such as pulmonary diseases; mortality; as well as amelioration of conditions such as arthritis, headache, and flu,” says the Mayo Clinic.

Csortan is constantly on the move thanks to her job as a TV host. “I love to travel…that never gets old!” she says. “I traveled the world for almost a decade. I did an Italian Travel show and soon after I found myself hosting a show for The Discovery Network where I was based in the USA called the World’s Best Beaches. I was the action girl, so most of my stories either consisted of getting wet in the ocean or sweating! Waterproof mascara was my favorite – the Maybelline one. My job also sees me doing so many different things such as being a face of the races and doing other endorsements, getting to work with amazing companies and interesting people. My job is very diverse, which I love.”

2. She Stays Active

Csortan makes a point of doing something active every day. “I try to do something daily even if it’s just taking my dog on a really long walk or doing a yoga class or pilates or a more intense class like F45,” she says. “I give my body a break every so often and I do an Eat Fit Food week, I just started today actually with Eat Fit Food, I do the 5 Day Cleanse program which I find really helps. My skin never looks better after exercise, drinking lots of water and a balanced diet.”

It's taken me almost two years to start getting back somewhat of a routine,” she says. “And even still, I don't have much of one to be honest since I'm really busy. I mean I literally have a two-year-old stuck to my hip 24/7, so I just do not stop.”

4. She Protects Her Skin

Csortan knows the importance of keeping up with her skincare regimen while on the move. “I can’t go anywhere without my Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream for my lips. Especially when traveling,” she says. “I have a Clinique bronzer that works a treat all over – my décolletage and face etc. I love black eyeliner too. With all the traveling I do, I have a Vitamin-C serum I use on my face. Letting your skin absorb a nice, rich serum on the days you don’t have to wear makeup is a must.”

5. She’s Protective Of Her Time

Csortan is dating, but refuses to sacrifice any time spent with her daughter. “My time is super precious and having a little one, that’s very time-consuming, very demanding of my time and attention. I have to be selective as to who I spend that tiny little window of time I get with,” she says.

Spanish star Carmen Lomana is proof-positive there is no age limit when it comes to looking fabulous in a bathing suit. The 74-year-old has been enjoying the sun and sea in St. Tropez, and posted a picture of herself wearing a black and white swimsuit, sitting by a turquoise pool. “Despedida de unos días estupendos (Saying goodbye to a great few days) #StTropez,” she captioned the Instagram post.

Read on to see 7 ways Lomana 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 Swears by Nivea Cream

No fancy face creams required for Lomana—she swears by humble Nivea to keep her skin supple. “What a wonder! Every time I open the can of @nivea_es its scent brings me to memory scenes from my childhood,” she says. “A ‘must’ in the house and, also in the bag, to guarantee a hydrated skin at all times. Great for nourishing hands, elbows, knees, lips, prevent stretch marks.. this cream works for everything and I always carry it with me.”

2. She Loves to Paddleboard

Lomana is happiest by the sand and sea, and paddleboards whenever she can. Not only is paddleboarding a great full-body workout, it encourages feel-good hormones, “which are great for your mood, self-esteem, mental health and wellbeing,” says physiotherapist Shira Kramer, founder of BeActive Physio in Melbourne.

3. She Enjoys Tea

Lomana enjoys tea as part of her healthy diet, preferring to drink it without milk or cream. “Different teas offer different benefits,” says Beth Czerwony, RD. “Choose what fits your need… Green tea is the champ when it comes to offering health benefits,” says Czerwony. “It’s the Swiss Army knife of teas. It covers a lot of territory. There are so many teas out there. Try different varieties and see what works best for you.”

4. She Loves To Swim

Lomana loves to swim, especially in the ocean. Studies show that being near the ocean is tremendously good for both physical and mental health. "Blue space therapy is a woefully underused method of lifestyle prescription for our physical and mental health. Still, the research proves that taking a dip can boost our wellbeing ten-fold," says Dr. Ruth Micallef. "Wild swimming has a host of research-proven benefits, including improved self-esteem, social confidence, and resilience—to name just a few."

5. She Walks and Hikes

Lomana loves to walk as part of her daily lifestyle, and also for exercise. “The nice thing about hiking is that it exists along an entire continuum, from a gentle walk on a flat wooded path to mountain climbing,” says Dr. Aaron L. Baggish, associate director of the Cardiovascular Performance Program at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. “There’s a real sense of peace and composure you get from being outside and away from everything.”

Actress and singer Mariana Botas is enjoying the beautiful beaches of Acapulco, Mexico. Botas posted a series of pictures of herself posing on the sand, wearing a bright print bikini and pink hat. “I'm going to the beach to roll in the sea to drink a beer and why not dance 🏖️ 🌊 🍻 💃🏼,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Botas 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 Follows a Low-Carb Diet

Low,Carb,Diet,Fitness,And,Weight,Loss,Concept,,Dumbbells,,WhiteShutterstock

Botas says she follows a low-carb diet, and loves how it makes her feel. “It’s hardly a coincidence that avoiding carbohydrates – like sugar and bread – has a special effect, beyond just focusing on calories,” says Dr. Andreas Eenfeldt, a Swedish medical doctor specializing in family medicine. “Carbohydrates, more than other foods, stimulate the release of the hormone insulin. And insulin is the body’s main fat-storing hormone. This means that to lose excess body fat your number one goal should be reducing insulin levels. And to do this, the first and most important thing is to eat fewer carbs – a low-carb diet. For many people this is enough to reach their goal weight.”

2. She Loves the Beach

Botas doesn’t just model those bikinis for show—she really loves the beach. "When we imagine the beach, we can all easily feel the warm sand between our toes," says Dr. Heidi Hanna, a Fellow and Advisory Board Member for the American Institute of Stress. "In fact, the sensation of being barefoot (the foot actually has the most nerve endings per square inch as compared to the rest of the body) in nature has a grounding effect and is shown to boost your mood."

3. She Enjoys Wine

'Una Familia de Diez' Press ConferenceMedios y Media/Getty Images

Botas enjoys the occasional glass of wine. "When it comes to alcohol, calories do count when trying to manage your weight [and] alcohol decreases your inhibitions, so you tend to eat more," says Keren Gilbert, certified nutritionist and founder and president of nutrition consultant firm, Decision Nutrition. "We are all entitled to a little relaxation, and fun. Alcohol can fit into a healthy lifestyle by keeping a tight, clean diet most of the time, drinking in moderation and knowing the facts."

4. She Walks Her Dogs

Botas is obsessed with her beautiful pups and loves taking them for walks. “There are many reasons to walk for exercise,” says Ann Green, M.S., past heptathlon world athlete, yoga teacher and fitness studio owner. “Walking improves fitness, cardiac health, alleviates depression and fatigue, improves mood, creates less stress on joints and reduces pain, can prevent weight gain, reduce risk for cancer and chronic disease, improve endurance, circulation, and posture, and the list goes on…”

5. She Swims

Botas loves to swim. “Many people say that by simply being in the water they feel more relaxed and less stressed,” says swimming instructor Emily Morrissey. “Regular exercise helps reduce anxiety and depression, as it releases ‘feel good’ hormones and keeps our brains working in a healthy way.”

Adding a playful pun to her caption, she wrote, “Never tyre’d of a good beach workout.”
So, how does she stay in such incredible shape? From strength training to boxing, here’s a look at her go-to fitness moves.

She Strength Trains

In her Instagram post, Sharvari is seen doing a strength training exercise. The Mayo Clinic says that strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories. Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

She Does Yoga

Sharvari shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. One thing she likes to do is yoga. Sharvari posted this video of herself doing poses on her page. John Hopkins Medicine states that yoga is very beneficial. “Regular yoga practice may reduce levels of stress and body-wide inflammation, contributing to healthier hearts. Several of the factors contributing to heart disease, including high blood pressure and excess weight, can also be addressed through yoga.”

She Plays Padel

Sharvari likes to play padel to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself on the court. Playing padel has a lot of health benefits. Everybody Health & Leisure says, “It improves cardiovascular fitness, helps to build strength and endurance, enhances coordination and promotes overall physical and mental well-being. Not to mention, it’s a fantastic way to burn calories.”

She Boxes

Another thing that Sharvari does to keep herself in shape is box. She first picked this up when training for the film, Vedaa. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself punching a bag.

She captioned the post, “Decided to seas the day!” Better Health says that running is very beneficial. “Regular running or jogging offers many health benefits.

Natasa Stankovic in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Wednesday Challenge"

Stankovic shares her go-to workout moves, from squats to lunges, cardio, Pilates, and strength training.

Entertainment India - March 2023

Natasa Stankovic isn’t just a content creator—she’s a fitness inspiration. Known for sharing intense workout sessions on Instagram, she keeps her followers motivated with creative exercise challenges and dynamic routines.

In her latest post, Stankovic teamed up with Aleksandar Illic for a lower body blast, pushing through variations of squats and lunges. Dressed in a sleek two-piece workout set, she captioned the session, “Wednesday challenge,” proving that fitness is all about consistency and fun.

So, how does she maintain her lean, strong physique? From strength training to Pilates, here’s a look at Stankovic’s go-to workout moves.

She Does Squats

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

She Does Cardio

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

She Does Pilates

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial. The Cleveland Clinic says, “One of the reasons Pilates is such a good workout is that it specifically focuses on building core strength.”

She Strength Trains

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health 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.”

Kim French in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Real Results" Workout

Learn how she sculpts her powerhouse physique with deadlifts, lunges, squats, and more.

Kim French is more than just a personal trainer—she’s a fitness coach who empowers thousands through her Believe App and Instagram workouts. Known for her structured, effective home training plans, she proves that you don’t need a gym full of heavy weights to build serious strength.

In a recent Instagram post, French shared a glimpse of her at-home training, reminding followers that smart training delivers "REAL results." Rocking a sleek two-piece workout set, she showcased some of her go-to exercises, emphasizing that with the right strategy, anyone can see progress.

So what’s in her routine? From deadlifts to hip thrusts, here’s how French sculpts her powerhouse physique.

She Does Deadlifts

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

She Does Lunges

Another exercise that French is seen doing in her Instagram post is lunges. NASM says that they are very beneficial. “The lunge is a versatile, simple and effective movement for lower body training. Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

She Does Squats

French is seen doing squats in her Instagram video. According to The Cleveland Clinic, squats are very beneficial. “Here’s a quick look at the many benefits of squats, also known as bodyweight squats or air squats: Works major muscle groups. Burns calories. Strengthens your core. Improves lower body strength. Enhances stability and balance. Betters your posture.”

She Does Hamstring Curls

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
