Mexican soccer star Norma Palafox is taking a well-earned break from her intense training schedule to enjoy some R&R on the ocean. The 23-year-old athlete posted a photo of herself looking incredible in a two-piece black swimsuit, captioning the shot “All you need is love 🖤.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Palafox 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 Loves Fruit

Palafox enjoys snacking on fruit, especially delicious peaches. “Peaches are low in calories (100 g just provide 39 calories), and contain no saturated fats,” says Karen Ensle Ed.D., RDN, FAND, CFCS. “Nonetheless, they are packed with numerous health promoting compounds, minerals, and vitamins. Fresh peaches are a moderate source of antioxidants and vitamin C which is required for the building of connective tissue inside the human body. Consumption of foods that are rich in vitamin C helps a person develop resistance against infections and helps to eliminate harmful free radicals that cause certain cancers.”

2. She Enjoys Oatmeal With Chia Seeds

Palafox loves to eat oatmeal with chia seeds for breakfast. “Chia seeds have many nutritional benefits,” says Romi Londre, RDN. “They are high in omega-3 fatty acids and fiber. Chia provides a similar amount of omega-3 fatty acids as ground flaxseed in the form of alpha linolenic acid, or ALA. They can help with weight loss. Chia seeds are an excellent source of fiber, which can improve heart health, reduce cholesterol levels and promote intestinal health. Fiber takes longer to digest and makes you feel satisfied longer, which is how it can help with weight loss and decrease your risk of developing diabetes or heart disease."

3. She Is a Yogi

Palafox likes to incorporate yoga sessions into her exercise regimen. “From Vinyasa and Iyengar to Bikram, there seems to be a yoga style for everyone,” says Elizabeth G. Matzkin, MD. “While anyone can benefit from practicing yoga, athletes or those who exercise regularly should consider incorporating yoga into their training plans… In addition to poses that challenge strength and balance, a complete yoga practice includes poses to increase flexibility. Joint and muscle flexibility play a key role in range of motion. A greater arc of motion allows more force to be exerted during exercise movements like a golf swing, swimming stroke, or a baseball pitch.”

4. She Loves To Swim

Palafox is an incredible swimmer, a sport which offers many health benefits. “Water supports and cushions the body, eliminating the kind of pounding associated with running,” says Harvard Health. “Because it's easy on the joints and muscles, swimming is often recommended for people with arthritis and other chronic conditions. The resistance of water also allows you to work out vigorously with little chance of injury. There's also a relaxing, meditative side to swimming. It can come with letting your mind drift as, bathed by soothing water, you focus on your breathing and your movements. This stress-busting aspect could contribute to the cardiovascular benefits of swimming.”

5. She’s a Bookworm

Palafox enjoys relaxing with a good book, something experts say is incredibly beneficial for health. "Losing yourself in a book is the ultimate relaxation,” says cognitive neuropsychologist David Lewis, BSc (Hons), D.Phil. "This is particularly poignant in uncertain economic times when we are all craving a certain amount of escapism. It really doesn't matter what book you read, by losing yourself in a thoroughly engrossing book you can escape from the worries and stresses of the everyday world and spend a while exploring the domain of the author's imagination. This is more than merely a distraction but an active engaging of the imagination as the words on the printed page stimulate your creativity and cause you to enter what is essentially an altered state of consciousness."

Kristal Silva, the TV presenter and former Miss Mexico, is showing why she was able to compete in the swimwear portion of pageants.

Read on to see 5 ways Kristal Silva 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 Goes To The Beach

Silva is a big fan of spending time in the sun, sand, and surf. The pageant girl loves to spend time by the beach and in the water. She has posted several stunning photos and videos on Instagram of herself enjoying days at the beach. Spending time at the beach is a great way to get Vitamin D and as a way to relax. According to the University of New Hampshire, “The calming effects of the waves and sun combined is enough to make a person leave their stress behind. The heat of the sun, the sound of the waves, and your feet in the sand can help to fight off any feelings of anxiety and stress.”

2. She Hikes

Spending time at the beach and pool isn’t the only outdoor activity Silva likes to do. She is also a fan of hiking and spending time in nature. Silva posted this series of photos on Instagram of herself going on a hike in the woods, and even taking a ride on an ATV. She captioned the post, “Live to the extreme, as if it were the last and without fear of enjoying yourself to the limit.”

Silva has videotaped herself on the treadmill. Here’s a treadmill workout from the Mayo Clinic:

“This is an advanced workout. It is similar to a HIIT (high intensity interval training) style cardio/ strength workout that is completed all on the treadmill. It will take about 25 minutes to complete the workout (plus warm up and cool down). Be sure to grab on to the handles for support. Feel free to adjust treadmill incline and speed as needed. To modify you can do the workout on a flat treadmill and work your way up to an incline. To advance the workout, jog during the ‘1-2 minute walk’. Modify any exercises as needed. Enjoy!

Spend 5-8 mins walking/jogging on the treadmill. Get your body moving and heart rate up! Feel free to stretch out any muscles before starting. Preform exercise for 2 minutes then walk for 1-2 minutes. Be sure to grab on to side handles as needed. Adjust incline and speed as needed.

Set treadmill at 10-13% incline, speed 0.7-1.5.

  1. Walking lunges – 2 mins
  2. Walk 1-2 mins
  3. Duck walks/squatted walk – 2 mins
  4. Walk 1-2 mins
  5. Sideways walks (one side, stay low in squat position and shuffle sideways) – 2 mins
  6. Walk 1-2 mins
  7. Sideways walks (other side, stay low in squat position and shuffle sideways) – 2 mins
  8. Walk 1-2 mins
  9. Military lunges (lunge with a high knee step) – 2 mins
  10. Walk 1-2 mins
  11. Backward duck walk/backward squatted walk – 2 mins
  12. Walk 1-2 mins
  13. Cool down: Walk at a comfortable speed while slowly lowering your incline all the way down. Take 5-10 minutes and stretch after.”

4. She Didn't Always Treat Herself Right

While Silva is a gorgeous woman, she hasn’t always seen herself in that light. Silva revealed that she used to be very insecure with her body, and developed an eating disorder. In an interview with Mexican talk show, Venga La Alegria, Silva talked about her story. "I looked at myself in the mirror and I got desperate because I did not see myself as I wanted to be. I did not do my part - I didn't have the best diet and I did not exercise - but at that time I was too young to know how to get fit or how to get the body I really wanted." Silva said that she developed anxiety around food and exercise, and was briefly hospitalized.

5. She Has Learned to Appreciate Life

“GRACIAS Dios porque he vivido 30 años de mi vida muy pero muy feliz, sana y rodeada de amor… 🙏🏻💗 Mil gracias a todos por sus mensajes de cariño, lo valoro mucho. 🙌🏻,” she once posted. Translation: “THANK YOU God because I have lived 30 years of my life very, very happy, healthy and surrounded by love... 🙏🏻💗 Thank you all for your messages of love, I appreciate it very much. 🙌🏻”

Silva hasn’t always been comfortable with her body. She revealed on the talk show Venga La Alegria that she used to have an eating disorder. “I looked at myself in the mirror and I got desperate because I did not see myself as I wanted to be. Also I did not do my part too, maybe I didn't have the best diet, I did not exercise – but at that time you do not know how to get fit or how to get the body you really want." After a medical scare, Silva has put those struggles behind her.

3. She Loves to Travel

Silva loves to travel, and shared a photo from the Eiffel Tower. “Even with a thousand filters I use, nothing compares to observing her beauty up close...❤️😍,” she captioned it. "Experiencing new places often stimulates positive reactions," says Dr. Esteban Franco-Garcia, a geriatric physician with Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital, tells Harvard Health. "It helps you remain physically active and offers the brain new challenges." The institution adds: “In fact, a survey of American travelers reported by the Global Coalition on Aging found that 93% felt happier after time away, 77% believed their health improved afterward, and about 80% said travel increased their productivity, energy, and focus.”

4. She Goes on Adventures

“Live to the extreme, as if it were the last and without fear of enjoying yourself to the limit...Thank you @cancun_adventures for this crazy and fun experience, the natural beauty in our country is impressive. 😍🙌🏻,” she captioned a photo of herself on a dune buggy. (“Vive al extremo, como si fuera el último y sin miedo de disfrutar al límite…Gracias @cancun_adventures por esta loca y divertida experiencia, es impresionante la belleza natural que hay en nuestro país. 😍🙌🏻.”)

5. She Loves Tacos

“Mexico I love you, and tacos, well here is proof that it is one of my favorite Mexican foods. 😍👌🏻🙌🏻,” she wrote once, in front of a huge platter of tacos. “Most taco seasoning packets tell you to sprinkle on the seasoning after the meat cooks. But if you take the time to marinate the meat before even cooking it, you'll have a stronger burst of flavor in that taco. Try our fajita marinade for steak or chicken, or this easy marinade with homemade taco seasoning for fish and shrimp,” says our sister site Eat This, Not That!

In her latest Instagram post, Sharvari showcased her grit with a hardcore beach workout, flipping a massive tire in the sand.

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. Sharvari captioned the post, “BEAST MODE on for Vedaa! ⚠️☠️🥊 Took up boxing to become Vedaa... Now I am ready to pack a punch or be strong enough to take a brutal beating 💪#Vedaa coming to a theatre near you on August 15th.”

She Runs

Sharvari likes to run to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself running on the beach. 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.”
