Loren Brovarnik is flaunting her baby belly! The 90 Day Fiancé star showed off her growing baby bump over the weekend, while on a babymoon with her husband Alexei. “Walking out of babymoon 3 like 🙌🏼🙌🏼” she captioned the post. How does the mother-of-two (and soon-to-be three!) maintain her fit physique? Read on to see 5 ways Loren Brovarnik 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 Works Out Early

Loren gets up early and hits the gym. “Those 6am workouts! People always ask “how do you do it or find time”… the HARDEST part is starting! Whether it’s 1 hour or 10 minutes, find time for yourself! You’ve got this. Work hard. Play hard. Last time I did this I had 1 plate - now I have 2,” she captioned this video of a grueling workout.

2. She Puts Her Family First

After gaining 32 pounds during her first pregnancy with Shai, Loren allowed herself the time she needed to put her baby first and fitness on the backburner. “I still have a belly and that will take time. No, I’m not working out,” she captioned one of her Instagram Stories. “I’m breastfeeding and changed my diet. I am going on daily walks, but that’s it. I think just being active with the baby is helping me. I have a few more to go and then some!”

3. She Is Open About Her Mental Health

Loren is totally candid about her mental health and other health issues. The reality star, who opened up about having Tourette syndrome on the show, revealed during a Q&A on Instagram that she wasn’t fully “prepared” for postpartum depression before becoming a mom, admitting it was “a real thing.” “My body dysmorphia, anxiety, tics, insomnia, etc. are at an all-time high because of it,” she wrote. “I need to constantly remind myself I just grew a human for months and it’s OK to take time to heal and adjust. Patience is a virtue and time heals all.”

4. She Has a Peloton

One of the workout tools that Loren uses to stay in shape? A Peloton spinning bike, which she keeps in her room. “Feeling good, like I should. Not edited. No filter. A working progress and I’m so proud of it!” she captioned this photo featuring the cycling machine while modeling a swimsuit in a mirror selfie.

5. She Takes Supplements

Loren is a big fan of supplements. “As I mentioned before, one of my New Years resolutions is to take vitamins — something I’ve proudly been keeping up with!” she shared in a post. Loren is a partner with Ritual vitamins, revealing that she takes two of them every single day. “Aside from the minty flavor, I like the fact that I understand all the ingredients in them and overall I feel better, not to mention I’m beyond proud of myself! I’ve also been taking the postnatal vitamins (with dr consent of course). I like the name because instead of a resolution, I just have another daily ritual,” she wrote.

The White Lotus cast is steaming up social media in their swimsuits. Meghann Fahy shared a photo of some of the actors and actresses from the show’s second season, lounging on the beaches of Italy in their bathing suits. “Sizzley Sicily,” she captioned the photo, which included Simona Tabasco, Aubrey Plaza, Leo Woodall, Adam DiMarco, Haley Lu Richardson, and Beatrice Granno. How do the cast members stay so fit? Read on to see 7 ways the cast of The White Lotus 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. Meghann Fahy Hydrates

Meghann Fahy’s top tip? Hydration. “I down a massive Yeti water bottle, pre-coffee. Hydrating myself is key. I drink so much more water than I even care to drink because I think that it really really helps me get through those 14-, 15-, 16-hour days that we pull sometimes. It helps mentally and physically, and it’s great for my skin,” she told Women’s Health. “On days I can sleep till 7:00, I go to Orangetheory or run. I live in [Brooklyn], so I run by the water a lot,”

2. Simona Tabasco Loves Outdoor Exercise

True to her last name, Simona Tabasco likes to keep things spicy and even has a [chili-pepper tattoo on her forearm]. “Yes! I love it,” she told Vulture about being named after hot sauce. “I love that it’s in my name and part of me. But specifically, it reflects my personality — or at least half of it. There’s a side to me that’s quite quirky and spicy.” She also enjoys outdoor exercise. Two of her favorite forms of fitness? Swimming and hiking.

3. Haley Lu Richardson Dances

Fun fact: Haley Lu Richardson was a competitive dancer before she became famous, and it is still her go-to fitness form. “I danced for like eight or nine years. I was super focused and committed to that; all I did was go to school and then dance and get no sleep. That’s when I learned about self-motivation and committing to something, and also about how much I love entertaining and telling stories. And I think dance and acting have those things in common,” she told The Last Magazine.

4. Leo Woodall Hikes

Leo Woodall enjoys hiking. “Still sore from getting that Uber to the tippy top,” he joked about his Runyon Canyon hike in Los Angeles. Physical benefits of taking a hike 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.

5. Aubrey Plaza Loves Yoga

Aubrey Plaza explained to The Cut that she believes wellness is “being conscious of what you’re putting into your body and on your body, and taking care of yourself.” She starts her day with water, followed by a smoothie, coffee, and ginger tea. As for her workouts, she loves yoga and basketball. “I’ve been playing since I was a kid,” she said.

6. Adam DiMarco Plays Basketball

Aubrey isn’t the only White Lotus star who shoots hoops. Adam DiMarco also stays in shape with the help of basketball.

7. Beatrice Granno Walks

Beatrice Granno loves to go for walks, a great way to stay in shape according to science. 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.

Puerto Rican star Gabriela Berlingeri is enjoying some much-needed beach time. The jewelry designer and girlfriend of superstar Bad Bunny shared pictures of herself posing in crystal-clear waters in a green bikini and white sun hat. “More pics from the cam,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Berlingeri 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. Lots of Swimming

One glance at Berlingeri’s social media shows how much she loves swimming. “Swimming is one of the few activities that work your whole body,” says the British Heart Foundation. “Breaststroke, backstroke, front crawl, butterfly and even doggy paddle get your legs and arms moving. This in turn works your back and core muscles.”

2. Outdoorsy Type

Berlingeri is no couch potato—she enjoys being outside as much as possible. “I take many of my individual clients and classes outdoors,” says certified fitness instructor ShaNay Norvell. “They often tell me it doesn’t feel like as much of a workout as running on the treadmill, even though they are still getting a great calorie burn.”

3. Snacking on Mango

Berlingeri loves fresh sliced mango for an on-the-go snack, which is a great source of vitamin C. "Vitamin C is good for immunity," says Maya Vadiveloo, assistant professor in the department of nutrition and food sciences at the University of Rhode Island. "It's an antioxidant so it can help with oxidative stress in the body. The primary benefit, in addition to being a really good source of vitamin C, is that (mangoes) are a decent source of vitamin A, folate and are pretty high in fiber, which is beneficial for colon cancer prevention, heart disease and weight control."

4. She’s a Singer

Singing and performing are creative endeavors very important to Berlingeri. “Singing at the Estadio Azteca was something I never in my life imagined doing, let alone daring,” she says. “I don't know how I did it, but I did it. I'm thankful for the people who motivated me to achieve it because I couldn't do it alone. Thanks to my mother for giving birth to me in Puerto Rico and with my father for raising me on this island that I love so much.”

5. Blue Therapy

Berlingeri loves to be by the ocean as much as she can. Having access to blue space is shown to have mental health benefits. "Increased views of blue space is significantly associated with lower levels of psychological distress," says Amber L. Pearson, PhD, MPH, assistant professor of health geography and a member of MSU's Water Science Network.

April Love Geary is trying on some swimsuits, and teasing her fans with a mirror selfie. Geary posted a picture of herself posing in a black bathing suit, with her hair in a ponytail. “This whole month got y’all thinking about me 🖤,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Geary 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. Couples Therapy

Geary and husband Robin Thicke took part in couples therapy. “Couples therapy provides tools for communicating and asking for what you need,” says relationship and family therapist Tracy Ross. “A lot of couples tell me that it is the only hour they have during the week where they’re focused on each other, with no distractions.”

2. Bike Riding

Geary enjoys riding a bike outside for some fresh air and exercise. “Many people feel a lot of tension about working out, losing weight and lowering their blood pressure,” says certified fitness instructor ShaNay Norvell. “Outdoor exercise is enjoyable and feels more like play than a chore.”

3. Swimming With the Family

Geary loves getting into the pool with her children. “Swimming is a great all-round form of physical activity,” says the NHS. “It's ideal if you want to be more active and stay healthy, whatever your age or fitness level. A few 30 to 45 minute sessions of moderate to vigorous intensity swimming per week is a great way of working towards your recommended level of physical activity.”

4. Postpartum Confidence

Geary loves her postpartum body after having children. “Just letting you know that I’m not really bothered by all your guys’ comments when you say I was so much more attractive when I was skinnier because before having babies I didn’t have this,” she says. “I am forever grateful for this baby weight.”

5. Pasta Lover

Geary says pasta from her favorite restaurant is the only time she “licks the plate clean”. “Carbohydrates are your body's main source of energy: They help fuel your brain, kidneys, heart muscles, and central nervous system,” according to Reid Health. “For instance, fiber is a carbohydrate that aids in digestion, helps you feel full, and keeps blood cholesterol levels in check.”

Maya Nazor says she wanted to be famous ever since she was a little girl, and it shows with her confidence in front of the camera. Nazor posted pictures of herself lounging on the ground, wearing a tiny black bathing suit that set off her bright red hair. “Hermosa,” commented one admirer. “Gracias hermosa♥️,” Nazor responded. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Nazor 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 to Dance

One look at Nazor’s social media confirms her love of dance. “When you begin moving, you immediately release the brain chemicals dopamine, adrenaline, and endorphins, causing a powerful and lasting effect I call ‘energized optimism,’” says Kelly McGonigal, PhD, author of The Joy of Movement. “The adrenaline makes you feel powerful, the dopamine generates hope, and the endorphins bring you joy. You’ve created this amazing cocktail that boosts your mood and energy, leads you to experience better social interactions, makes you more likely to progress on your goals, and lowers stress. So dancing doesn’t just make you feel great in the moment. It sets you up to be a better version of yourself.”

2. She Travels Around the World

Nazor is passionate about visiting new places. “Foreign experiences increase both cognitive flexibility and depth and integrativeness of thought, the ability to make deep connections between disparate forms,” says Adam Galinsky, a professor at Columbia Business School. “The key, critical process is multicultural engagement, immersion, and adaptation. Someone who lives abroad and doesn’t engage with the local culture will likely get less of a creative boost than someone who travels abroad and really engages in the local environment.”

3. Self-Confidence

Nazor says she was born to be in front of the camera, and feels confident about being an influencer. “The truth is, I’ve always enjoyed speaking a lot in front of the camera and I can speak easily. As a kid, I pretended I had a TV channel and my own program. It’s a way of expressing myself,” she says.

4. Post Baby Body

Nazor welcomed son Luka last summer, and embraced her post-baby body. "Remind yourself of the miracle you just performed," says Chaye McIntosh, clinical director at ChoicePoint Health in Fairlawn, New Jersey. "Remind yourself that the baby you are now holding in your arms is worth the stretch marks and belly pouch. Remind yourself that you are beautiful just the way you are. And remember that your baby needs a strong, self-assured, and dedicated parent—not just one with a flat tummy."

5. She Loves the Pool

Nazor enjoys being in the water, both in the swimming pool and in the ocean. “Research has shown that being near, in, on or under water can provide a long list of benefits for our mind and body, including lowering stress and anxiety, increasing an overall sense of well-being and happiness, a lower heart and breathing rate, and safe, better workouts,” says marine biologist Wallace J. Nichols.

On Instagram, Hewitt revealed the secret behind her impressive eyebrows. "I have been using this product and I'm noticing people bringing up my brows. I don't have anything on them today really, except this product, but it's the Rare Beauty lifting gel stuff. I mean, Selena, 'thank you' is all I can say. I love it, so I'm going to put it up so that you know what it is, but that's what it is. That is the brow lifting that people are talking about. That's all I got."

She Does a Variety of Workouts

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.”

She Wants to be a Role Model

Hewitt tells People that she wants to be a role model for others. In it, she shared the advice she gives to young girls. “When I meet young girls, I’m always like, ‘Just do me one favor. Love what you look like right now – and remember I said it 10 years from now because it’s the greatest gift I can give.’”

Over the past few years, Sydney Sweeney has become one of America’s sweethearts with celebrated roles in everything from hit HBO shows Euphoria and White Lotus to big-screen movies Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Anyone But You. 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

Pilates

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.
