Maren Morris is diving into her vacation in her swimsuit! The country star, currently spending time in Idaho with her family, shared some photos and videos of her adventures. In them, she wears a black swimsuit as she enjoys time on the lake with friends and family. “All the blues, baby,” she captioned the Instagram post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Maren Morris 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. Her Diet Is Healthy

Even when she is on tour, Maren maintains a healthy diet. She starts the morning with three egg whites and spinach cooked in olive oil, and wheat toast. For lunch, she eats salad with protein. However, she waits until after her shows to consume dinner, usually leaving the stage starving. “When I’m out there, I make it count. I know I’ll feel awful if I don’t eat right after burning all those calories in the show,” she told Women’s Health. For dinner, she will eat another salad, maybe skinless chicken over spinach with lemon vinaigrette.

2. She Exercises

Maren attributes her toned figure to exercise sessions with Nashville based trainer Erin Oprea. She does a lot of their workouts virtually and also uses Erin’s Pretty Little Muscles app. Her workouts usually involve jump roping followed by bodyweight resistance strength training, doing exercises like front and side planks, pushups, squats, lunges, and a combo of the latter two.

“Squat lunges are the worst,” she confessed. “They’re so hard because that’s the area I need it most—my thighs and butt.” She then moves to the BOSU ball and does crunches and core work, followed by weight lifting with free weights.

3. She Is Inspired By Lara Croft

Initially, Maren told her trainer she wanted dto “look like Tomb Raider.” She even keeps a photo of Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft on her phone. “This is what I have to look at every time I unlock it—if I’m at a bar, or eating a french fry. So that’s motivating,” she said.

4. She Was Comfortable with Her Body After Having a Baby

Oprea told Us Weekly that Maren was comfortable with her body after welcoming her first baby and didn’t rush into losing the weight. "She doesn't have this, 'I want to bounce back kind of mentality,' which I freaking love, after having a baby," Oprea said. "She has this, 'I want to feel good, but I still want to love life.' And I think it's cool. My goal for her [is] slow and steady, enjoy the journey."

5. She Does Therapy

After welcoming her son, Maren did battle postpartum depression, which her husband, Ryan Hurd, helped diagnose. "I do check-ins all the time [with] therapy, which I've done for years, and my husband was a huge help diagnosing that too," she told People. "Sometimes it's just someone really close to you saying, 'Are you OK?' It's so simple, but it kind of snaps you out of whatever fog you're in that you think is normal, but isn't."

Maren Morris is an extremely successful country singer. She first made waves in 2016, with songs like, “My Church”, “80s Mercedes”, and “Sugar.” She then appeared on the Zedd & Grey hit, “The Middle” in 2018. The next year, she released her album, “GIRL”, which included hits like the title track and “The Bones”, and became a member of the group, The Highwomen. This week, Morris shared a photo on her Instagram story of herself lying in bed writing her Billboard speech. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Maren Morris stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She’s Treating Her Depression

Sertraline,Word,Wooden,Cubes,On,A,White,BackgroundShutterstock

Morris opened up about postpartum depression and how she’s treating it on The Howard Stern Show. “I think I was just starting to make very little sense to myself and to people around me. I felt useless in the way of I couldn’t work. I couldn’t tour. Everything got canceled.”It’s a tough one when you’ve done something for so long to not think that that’s you, even though you love it and it makes you a living, that’s not who you are. So separating those things was helpful, getting on Zoloft was also really cool.”

2. She Shaves Her Face

Morris has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She revealed a unique treatment she has on Twitter. “Ok, going a step further, I also shave my face. I learned it because Amy Grant said it once at a talk 5 years ago and she doesn’t age. I’ve been shaving ever since. Men age gracefully because they shave everyday. Marilyn Monroe also shaved. Like, literally no one asked, but it’s Twitter, so f*** it. After years of stage makeup, the only thing that’s worked for my skin is doing microneedling every 2 months. It’s been 2 years since I’ve had a major breakout, even through pregnancy.”

3. Morris Works with Trainer

Morris works with trainer, Erin Opera, to help her stay fit. Opera shared some of Morris’ fitness secrets in an interview with E! News. “She has been playing tennis,” Opera revealed. “I encourage clients to do their cardio outside of me. Sports are always the best way because when you're chasing a ball, you're not thinking about cardio.”

4. She’s Motivated

Opera talked about working with Morris to E! News. She says that the singer is extremely dedicated to staying in shape. “She's a strong woman and she knows what she wants. She's driven. When she decides she wants to do something, or she has a vision for something, she's going to make it play out. She's a strong confident woman. She won't put up with s--t. Nobody can put her down or boss her around.”

5. She Took Things Slow

Opera talked about how Morris lost the weight from her pregnancy to E! News. She says that she had Morris take things slow. “Nutrition was the biggest part. A big part was letting her just enjoy her baby. Just be in the moment and with time, it will all come off if you stay consistent. You can do all these crash things and get it off that way or you can do a slow, steady pace. I always say slow and steady wins the race. If you do it slowly, you're not going to feel deprived.”

Too Hot To Handle star Carly Lawrence is clearly happiest when she’s in a bikini. The reality star posted a video of herself on Instagram looking stunning in a purple bikini, with one fan commenting that she looks “maravilhosa”. So how does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Lawrence 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 Oysters

Lawrence enjoys oysters, which are a great source of vitamin D, copper, selenium, iron, vitamin B12, and zinc. “Yes, oysters are very good for you,” says preventive cardiology dietitian Julia Zumpano, RD, LD. “In fact, you probably didn’t know that it’s hard to beat all the health benefits of oysters from a nutritional standpoint. Oysters can really pack a healthy punch. Think of oysters as little shells full of nutrients.”

2. She Stays True To Herself

Being on a reality show didn’t affect Lawrence’s sense of self. “For me it was easy because I just didn’t have to think about it,” she told COMPLEX. “I just said what I wanted to say, I did what I wanted to do. There wasn’t much thought into it because I was like, this is just who I am as a person. I look back and I’m like, OK, maybe I shouldn’t have done or said that, but then I’m like, well, I’m being authentic. So that’s me. And if people don’t like something that I did or said, then they might just not like me.”

3. She Loves Her “Beach Hair”

Lawrence isn’t a fan of the overly-groomed look, preferring messier “beach hair”. “A lot of people just tell me to brush my hair, which I don’t disagree with them,” she jokes. Lawrence’s hair might actually be healthier this way, experts say, "After only a day of not using irons or heat instruments to style the hair, it will be in the condition that our hair is which is dehydrated, fragile, dull, and lifeless," says Garnier celebrity hairstylist Millie Morales. "After a month, you will notice an incredible, stronger change in your hair. You would have recovered the hydration, the natural oils of your hair and would have strengthened the protective layer of the hair."

4. She Loves the Water

Lawrence has posted lots of snaps of herself frolicking in the ocean (in a bikini, of course!). “The color blue has been found by an overwhelming amount of people to be associated with feelings of calm and peace,” says clinical psychologist Richard Shuster, PsyD. “Staring at the ocean actually changes our brain waves’ frequency and puts us into a mild meditative state.”

5. She Loves to Dance

Lawrence enjoys dancing, based on her TikTok posts. “We know that movement is good for everyone,” says Emily Sandow, supervisor of dance physical therapy at NYU Langone’s Harkness Center for Dance Injuries. “A healthy lifestyle is integrating the mind, body and soul relationship, and dance has all of those characteristics. Everyone can do something, even if it’s just you just tapping your foot. Everyone can do something where they can move their body to music, and that’s really valuable.”

Singer Maren Morris is up to something, and she just released a revealing teaser on Instagram. Morris posted a photo of herself spending time in the water, in a scenario very much resembling the cover of her latest album.

Read on to see 7 ways Maren Morris 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 Had A Wake-Up Call

In a 2019 interview with Women’s Health, Morris opened up about her past struggles with her body and her health. She said that she went through a bad break-up that led to her wellness and health declining. Luckily, she then had a wake-up call that allowed her to change her lifestyle. “I didn’t look at my body like it was healthy — when you’re going through emotional turmoil, it’s hard to eat. That was a wake-up call: I need to address my mental and physical health.”

2. She Eats Healthy On Tour

It can be difficult to stay healthy when you have a busy schedule. Especially for a singer like Morris, who has to travel for tours and shows. However, Morris says that she makes sure to eat healthy when she’s on the road. “When I’m on there, I make it count,” she said to Women’s Health. “I know I’ll feel awful if I don’t eat right after burning all those calories in the show.”

3. She Hates Squat Lunges, But Still Does Them

Morris told Women’s Health that although she hates doing certain exercises, she sticks with them, since she knows they help her. The singer cited one particular exercise as an example. “Squat lunges are the worst,” Morris said. “They’re so hard because that’s the area I need it most — my thighs and” backside.

4. She Motivates Herself

Morris says to Women’s Health that her goal is to “look like Tomb Raider,” and she says that she has a trick to keep herself moving towards that goal. She says that she keeps a photo of actress Alicia Vikander as Tomb Raider on her phone, and looks at it whenever she has unhealthy cravings. “This is what I have to look at every time I unlock it — if I’m at a bar, or eating a French fry,” Morris said. “So that’s motivating.”

5. She’s Comfortable With Her Body

Morris’ trainer, Erin Oprea, tells Us Weekly that the singer is comfortable with her body, even after welcoming her first child in 2020, and isn’t in any rush to lose weight. “She doesn’t have this, ‘I want to bounce back kind of mentality,’ which I freaking love, after having a baby,” Oprea says. “She has this, ‘I want to feel good, but I still want to love life.’ And I think it’s cool. My goal for her [is] slow and steady, enjoy the journey.”

6. She Plays Fitness Games With Her Trainer

Oprea tells Us Weekly that she likes to make Morris’ workouts as fun as possible. She says that the two of them like to play fitness games during sessions. “My philosophy is to try and turn fitness into games. So we play lots of fitness games.”

7. She Started Therapy

After seeing Lady Gaga in A Star Is Born, Morris told Women’s Health that she decided to start going to therapy. She says that she saw a lot of similarities between her life and Lady Gaga’s character, and wanted to prevent some of the things that happened in the film. “I had to go to therapy. Not the substance abuse part, but there were things that happened to [Lady Gaga's] character that happened to me. That movie rocked us both. We were like, 'We can never end up like this. Cool?'"

Cifuentes’ impressive figure was on display. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Mara Cifuentes 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

Cifuentes loves to go to the beach and the pool. She shares a lot of beach and pool photos on her Instagram. She loves to swim as a way to stay in shape. Cifuentes shared this photo of herself wading in the ocean and using a tree branch to support her. She also shared this photo of herself in a pool, captioning it, “In a movie.”

2. She Walks

Cifuentes likes to walk as a way of staying in shape. Whenever she travels, she makes sure to walk around the local city. She shared these photos on Instagram of herself walking on 23rd Street in New York City. Cifuentes captioned the post, “Keep walking.” She also shared these photos of herself in Washington Square Park, captioning it, “Winter.”

3. She Savors Her Happiness

Cifuentes is all about feeling happy. She makes sure to savor the moments. Cifeuentes talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “What is good today, may not be tomorrow,” she writes. “There is the value of the moment, there is the perfect present. The opportunity comes to you, you'll see if you ride it. Hold on tight, don't let go. Laugh... Weeps that each one has his time. Laugh... Cry, live your life, enjoy it all.”

4. She Gets Her Vitamin D

"Vitamin D isn't naturally found in many foods, but you can get it from fortified milk, fortified cereal, and fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel and sardines. Your body also makes vitamin D when direct sunlight converts a chemical in your skin into an active form of the vitamin (calciferol)," says the Mayo Clinic. "The amount of vitamin D your skin makes depends on many factors, including the time of day, season, latitude and your skin pigmentation. Depending on where you live and your lifestyle, vitamin D production might decrease or be completely absent during the winter months. Sunscreen, while important to prevent skin cancer, also can decrease vitamin D production."

5. She Likes the Beach

"Swimming can improve mood in both men and women. For people with fibromyalgia, swimming can decrease anxiety, and exercise therapy in warm water can decrease depression and improve mood. Water-based exercise can improve the health of pregnant people and has a positive effect on the pregnant person’s mental health. Parents of children with developmental disabilities find that recreational activities, such as swimming, improve family connections," says the CDC.

Leonie Hanne is living her best life in Thailand – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the German model flaunts her fantastic figure in a $750 Missoni bathing suit while enjoying a boating day in the tropics. “She dreamed of a tropical adventure 🦋,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Stunning,” commented one of her followers. ”So beautiful,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Coffee

Leonie enjoys the perks of caffeine. In one of her posts from Thailand, she drinks a cup of coffee at the poolside. According to the Cleveland Clinic, drinking coffee in moderation has several benefits. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Pilates

Leonie does Pilates at the super exclusive London studio Pilates in the Clouds. 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.

At-Home Workouts

Leonie tries to get a workout in daily, preferably in the morning. I still try to get up early to maintain a sense of routine. I start every day with a quick at-home workout and a homemade acai bowl, before starting work on emails and content creation. I’ve been getting really into TikTok lately, it’s funny and keeps me feeling energised!” she told Arcadia.

Community

It takes a village, according to Leonie. “Community is key! The people you surround yourself with are more important than ever, as we are all trying to find ways to stay connected without being physically present. Speaking to people either on the phone or through social media can shift your mindset and motivation more than ever before,” she says.

Small, Healthy Habits

Leonie focuses on maintaining small, healthy habits. “Do something every day that brings you joy. Even if that means having something small to look forward to, like having your favourite snacks around the house or changing into an outfit that makes you feel good about yourself,” she says.

Sophie Piper is embracing island life – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Love Island beauty shows off her fantastic figure in a swimsuit during a tropical vacation at Kandima Maldives with Josh Ritchie. “Island life,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps taken at the picturesque resort. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

She Doesn't Go Under the Knife

Sophie claims she hasn’t gone under the knife. “It’s your own body, you can do what you want to,” she told Grazia, weighing in on the show’s reputation for girls getting work done. “I wouldn’t have surgery myself; I don’t want it. I’ve got such a low pain tolerance as well; I’d be squirming around.”

She Gets Her Steps In

Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Sophie loves paddle boarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and cardio. Water sports can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140-pound male and 436 calories for a female of the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

She Skis

When Sophie hits the mountains, she throws on a pair of skis. “Ski club,” she captioned a photo. Research has linked downhill skiing to several health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, the prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress, and the occurrence of memory deficits decline.

She Loves Group Fitness

“You’ve got to be body confident,” Sophie told Grazia. One of her favorite sweat methods? Group fitness. “A few gym classes can’t hurt,” she said.

She Goes Snorkeling

On her recent Maldives vacation, Sophie and Josh snorkeled in the crystal clear water. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Tammy Hembrow is "More Motivated Than Ever"

Join her challenges for workouts, meal tracking, and more for a healthier lifestyle.

Tammy Hembrow is a fitness influencer and expert. She has her own app, called Tammy Fit. Hembrow has a lot of challenges on her app. Recently, she advertised a challenge with a workout video on Instagram. Hembrow captioned the post, “We are 3 days into our first @tammyfitapp challenge of the year & I am more motivated than everrrrr. (Sign ups are still open if you haven’t joined yet - there’s still time to catch up!! - link in bio). Soooo happy seeing so many of my girlies (and guys) in this challenge doing it with me!! And I CANNOT wait to see everyone’s results at the end of the 8 weeks. We got thissss 💪🏼”

She Does Pulldowns

Hembrow is seen doing pulldowns in her Instagram video. Piedmont reports that pulldowns have a lot of benefits. “The lat pulldown is a fantastic exercise for strengthening the latissimus dorsi muscle, the broadest muscle in your back. This muscle promotes good posture and spinal stability. Form is crucial when performing a lat pulldown to prevent injury and reap the best results.”

She Lifts Weights

Hembrow is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that using weights to workout has a lot of 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.”

She Tracks Her Meals

Hembrow likes to track her meals on her app. She talked about the benefits of this in the caption of this “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. “Make sure to take advantage of the calorie/macro tracking features in the @tammyfitapp during this challenge guys. It can be really helpful in reaching specific goals quicker. And it also can help educate you on your food choices when it comes to nutrition, ratios, hidden calories, overeating or under eating etc. honestly I’d recommend any beginner try it out just to get a good feel for how you’re fuelling your body!! I feel like when people think of ‘meal tracking’ it can be seen as something that seems restrictive or something only bodybuilders do. When in reality it can be such a helpful tool and you can learn things that will actually encourage long term habits 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

She Loves Bananas

Tammy Hebrew has a banana snack.

Hembrow is seen enjoying bananas in her “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that bananas have a lot of benefits. “A single medium-sized banana offers about 32 mg of the mineral magnesium, which fulfills around 8% to 10% of your daily magnesium requirement. Magnesium is involved in many processes in your body, including: Blood pressure. Blood sugar levels. Building proteins. Maintaining bone. Muscle function. Nerve function.”

She Loves Cottage Cheese

Tammy Hebrew's snack the contains banana and cottage cheese.
