Big Brother star Luisa Zissman is enjoying a fun-filled vacation in Koh Samui, Thailand. Zissman shared pictures of herself wearing a yellow bikini, happily playing in mud with some contented pigs. “I can confirm when rolling around with these guys I really was happy,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Zissman 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. Self-Confidence

Zissman is used to being in the public eye, and refuses to allow any criticism or trolling to change her behavior. “I don’t feel under pressure to lose weight,” she says. “I’ve learned to toughen up and after some time now I think it’s funny when people are mean, it doesn’t bother me. If I cared what people thought of me I’d never get out of bed. I make money off the fact that people know who I am. I don't feel under pressure to change, I take the good with the bad.”

2. Healthy Snacks

Zissman enjoys fruit and nuts as a healthy workday snack. "Including nuts in your diet has been associated with improved heart health," says registered nutritionist Kerry Torrens. "This is because consuming nuts helps maintain the health of the lining of the arteries, balances cholesterol and reduces the build-up of deposits called plaques, while also lowering the risk of blood clots."

3. Horseback Riding

Zissman is a seasoned equestrian who loves show jumping—but you don’t have to be an expert to enjoy the benefits of horseback riding. "For the average junior or amateur rider who trains in the saddle at least two to three times per week, riding is a great addition to an exercise program," says professional hunter-jumper rider and trainer Melissa Gruber. "Riding is a total body workout. Your legs, arms and core work together to conhttps://celebwell.com/wp-admin/my-sites.phptrol and communicate with the horses. Really, riding is a partnership sport; the rider and the horse support and guide each other. Just like dancing or ice skating with a partner, horse and rider communicate through body language and touch."

4. She Enjoys Healthy Food

Zissman finds it easy to eat a healthy diet, as she genuinely enjoys nutritious foods. "I was raised on a very healthy diet," she says. "When I was younger, I only used to eat chicken and now I'm completely vegetarian. Salad is my favorite food, so for me it's not like, 'Oh, I've got to eat healthily.'”

5. Skiing

Zissman loves going on skiing trips, which are not only good for exercise but great for mental health, too. “When you’re skiing, you’re often out with a group of friends and you’re socializing,” says physical therapist Scott Tremmel. “You’re getting fresh air and taking in the beautiful scenery around you. It’s good for your emotional health.”

Read on to see 5 ways Karoline Lima 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 Swims

Lima spends a lot of time in the water. She has a lot of photos on Instagram of herself either at the beach or the pool. She likes to swim to stay in shape. Lima shared this photo of herself wading in the waves at sunset. She captioned the post, “Happy and light as if there's no strife amen.” She also shared these photos of herself wading in the ocean, captioning it, “Wonder where I am?”

2. She Rides Jet-Skis

Swimming isn’t the only activity Lima does at the beach to stay active. She likes to get her heart racing and adrenaline flowing. Lima likes to ride jet-skis at the beach. Lima posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself jet-skiing in Praia das Toninhas. She captioned the post, “Fucking beautiful you know.”

3. She Plays With Dogs

She captioned the post, “Can I make a frame of this picture? Full moon.” She also shared this photo with her dogs, captioning it, “Oreo and Luquinhas passing by to send you a kiss.”

4. She Benefits From the Sun

“Sometimes a little bit of sunshine is the best medicine. A walk in the park or a bike ride probably puts you in a good mood, and a moderate amount of sun is also good for your physical health. While you’re outside soaking up rays, your body is busy making vitamin D. That’s good news, because this hormone that’s boosted by exposure to sunlight plays an important role in women’s health,” says Johns Hopkins.

5. She Loves the Beach

“Beaches provide many recreational opportunities for millions of people. Boating, fishing, swimming, walking, beachcombing, bird-watching, playing and sunbathing are among the common activities beachgoers enjoy. Beaches provide protection to residents living near the ocean by acting as a buffer against the high winds and waves of powerful storms or rough seas,” says the EPA.

Actress and model Laetitia Casta has modeled for brands like Guess and as a Victoria’s Secret Angel. She’s also starred in projects like Face and The Blue Bicycle. Casta recently did a shoot for her collaboration with Calzedonia, and shared a photo on Instagram. In it, she posed on a balcony in a black halter swimsuit with cut-outs. She captioned the post, “I am happy to announce my collaboration with Calzedonia – discover the capsule collection of one-piece swimsuits.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Laetitia Casta 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’s Authentic

Casta opened up about her career to Grazia. She says that she wants to be authentic in her career, and change the perception of how models are viewed. “The idea is to fight for the beauty. When I talk about beauty it's something profound, not something superficial. It's true I came from fashion but I also felt I fought for something. I met incredible people like Saint Laurent who taught me to how to fight for beauty – real beauty. I think that's why they came to me because they knew I was trying all those 20 years to be authentic and trying to break the code as a model.”

2. She Makes Working Out A Priority

For Casta, fitness is a priority. She tells Grazia that she always makes time for exercise in her schedule. “Sometimes I have to [work out]. I don’t want to like everybody but I have to and I’m a human being. I’ve always been a sports person anyway since I was a young girl; it’s good for the brain. I go to run, I do gym sometimes, I swim... I’m not a freak out with that.”

3. She Runs

Casta toldHarper’s Bazaar in 2012 that she is an avid runner. “Ladies; we need to work out – there are no alternatives. I try to exercise as much as possible. I like to run, swim and walk rather than going to the gym. You can’t beat an early morning run to start the day. I am quite active, having children makes you that way because I’m always running around after them!”

4. She’s All About Self-Love

Casta is all about self-love and self-acceptance. She tells Grazia that she wants others to feel the same way. “You are beautiful in the eyes of someone without them looking at you. Beauty is something universal, it's not only one way of being. It's what I'm fighting for women to accept the feminity that they have. This is really important to me, [especially now that] I have daughters.

5. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Casta has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared some of her secrets with Into The Gloss. "Sometimes when I have puffy eyes, I take ice and put some rose lotion and a cotton pad all together, and put it on my eyes in the morning. I have a product for when the lips get dry…it’s papaya; Lucas Papaw Ointment... I love to use that product, but I can put it here too, on the eye. It can be a nice eye shadow, especially here, on the inner corner, to create light around the eye."

"Try savoring pleasure: placing your attention on pleasure as it occurs and consciously enjoying the experience as it unfolds."

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

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.
