Montana Rose Brown first made waves as a contestant on Love Island. Since then, she’s become a successful influencer and model. Recently, she announced that she is expecting her first child. Brown just enjoyed a beach trip with her family, and shared highlights on Instagram. In them, she posed in a pink and white bathing suit and a black dress. She captioned the post, “A week of happiness.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Montana Brown 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 With A Personal Trainer

Brown revealed some of her fitness and wellness secrets to Healthista. Brown does a lot of sessions with a personal trainer to help her stay in shape. “I’ve got a PT [royal ballet trainer Alex Minor],” she says. “He always makes me do uphill sprints which is fun. Luckily we don’t do them every session.”

2. She Uses A Resistance Band

Brown tells Healthista what her favorite pieces of workout equipment are. She says that she likes to use a resistance band. “I think everyone should have a resistance band, especially if you’re a girl,” she says. “Because it means that you don’t always have to go to the weights section which I know can be a bit intimidating for people. Ladies, you seriously need a resistance band.”

3. She Does Workouts She Likes

Brown tells Healthista that she enjoys all the workouts that she does. “I think you should work out because you enjoy it,” she explains. “For a lot of people, the gym and weight training just aren’t for them and that’s absolutely fine. There are so many different things you can do now whether it’s boxing, Zumba or Pilates… I’m just starting training with a new netball team as well. I like being part of a sports team, I’m so competitive. And it just feels like an easy way to exercise.”

4. She Eats Healthy

Brown revealed some of her favorite meals to Healthista. “Every morning I have porridge and fruit – berries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries are my favourite. At the minute, lunch isn’t that strict purely because I’m out every day so I’ll just eat on the go. I try and get something semi-healthy from Pret like a salad. They do a really nice salmon Teriyaki. I’ll get something like that with some edamame beans or some veg… I eat a lot of meat, I’m a big carnivore and a beef stir fry is my absolute favourite. Me going vegan is never going to happen. My go-to dinner is a can of tuna with balsamic vinegar, tomatoes and red onion. I like it because it’s really light.”

5. She Wants To Inspire Others

Brown is open about how she worked hard to get in shape before going on Love Island. However, she tells Closer that the reason she is open about this is that she wants the viewers of the show to pressure themselves into looking a certain way. "People who are watching the show should remember that those bodies aren’t 'normal',” she says. “There’s been a lot of hard work, grueling fitness regimes, and healthy eating put into them."

1. She Drinks Coffee

“While past studies hinted that coffee might have a dark side, newer research suggests that it may actually have health benefits. Why the reversal? It's hard to look at just one aspect of diet and connect it to a health condition because so many other factors that could play a role. For example, early research on coffee didn't always take into account that heavy coffee drinkers also tended to use tobacco and be sedentary,” says the Mayo Clinic. “When newer studies adjusted for such factors, they found a possible association between coffee and decreased mortality. Coffee may offer some protection against:

  • Parkinson's disease
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Liver disease, including liver cancer
  • Heart attack and stroke”

2. She Tries Not to Lose Too Much Weight, After an Obsession With Exercise

“When you have good people around you, mammy as well, she noticed, she said ‘you’ve got too thin' or whatever and I was like ‘yeah, yeah, yeah I know, I’m trying to sort it out,’” she told the MailOnline. She added: “I’m not working out as much as I was, I ended up losing too much weight.” And: “I’m not doing it as much, once, twice a week max, and to be honest I’m just really good with my diet at the moment. It’s all about balance.” And: “I eased off the exercise and upped my calories and stuff. It’s good to have people around you that are not afraid to say these things to you. It’s so important. I’m feeling so much better.”

3. She is Not Afraid of a Few Grey Hairs

Pride Of Britain Awards 2021 - Red Carpet ArrivalsGareth Cattermole/Getty Images

“I put on Instagram a picture of my grey hairs and honestly the amount of messages I got from younger girls, girls in their early 20s saying ‘oh my God, thank you so much for this, I've never shown anyone my grey hair, I keep it a secret but now I feel like I'm going to embrace it and not be afraid,'” she told MailOnline. “My hair went grey when I was 18. I'm so used to it now, 18 feels like a long time ago. I don't know why it happened, maybe I'm old on the inside! I just said to mammy "why has this happened? Why do I get the bad genes?" She said to me ‘well it's not from me because I didn't have grey hair at 18!’”

4. She Learned How to Take a Break

After a particularly stressful shoot, “It was Michael Barrymore who gave me the advice” to just chill out and not be go, go, go. “I was training for Dancing On Ice and he is a really, really lovely man. He knew by me that I was going through a bit of a time of it….I remember him saying to me, ‘You need to take a break because if these brands and everyone really do want you then they will wait for you.’ So I took his advice and it’s the best thing I ever did. And I would give the same advice to all the new Love Islanders….I didn’t take all the jobs and I didn’t just think of all the cash,” she told the Independent.

5. She Once Showed Off Her “Food Baby”

After a Christmas meal, Higgins showed a bulging tummy and asked fans if she had a “baby” or “food baby.” For her followers, it was an important admission: that eating is OK. Said some followers: “Thank you so much for showing us this” and “keeping it real for us all.” And: “This made me feel a bit better. You’re beautiful,” “I needed this, thank you”’ and “This has really helped me today, thank you xx hope you had a lovely xmas.”

Millie Court is getting some sun! The Love Island star shows off her sensational figure in her latest Instagram post, wearing a yellow and orange swimsuit. “Vitamin sea,” she captioned the series of social media snaps. How does the reality star maintain her fabulous physique? Read on to see 6 ways Millie Court 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 Was “Unhealthily Skinny” On Love Island

Following her debut on Love Island, Millie ended up gaining weight. Her followers accused her of being pregnant, and she responded by revealing that she was actually healthy. "[In] the weeks leading up to Love Island, I felt the need to lose several pounds because I knew I was going to be surrounded by beautiful, slim girls. I worked out every single day and ate salad for lunch and to tell you the truth I was miserable while doing it,” she said in a post. "I went from a size 10 to a six, and it’s the smallest I’ve ever been as a young adult. Because of my height, this made me look unhealthily skinny, of which I was (not eating barely anything, feeling ill all the time, tired, dizzy) and I remember looking at myself, I’d lost my ... curves I once had and I missed them."

2. She Embraces Her Body

In the same post, Millie encouraged her millions of followers to love themselves. "We're all different shapes and sizes, each size perfect in our own way. But please don't get stuck to the beauty standard of 'perfection'," she said. "Loving our imperfections can be difficult, but when you learn to embrace them and realise that our imperfections don’t define us, they are just a part of us alongside everything that creates you as a person."

3. She Battled Acne

Pride Of Britain Awards 2021 - Red Carpet ArrivalsGareth Cattermole/Getty Images

Millie has also been open about her skin struggles. "I suffered from acne about a year and a half ago and then I started to work with a skin aesthetician, who helped me to find my skincare routine and helped me to start dealing with the breakouts. Now that my acne has gone, we are on more of a journey to find the right products; doing treatments like microneedling once a month to deal with the scarring. I am so happy with the outcome because the difference from what it was to now is just incredible,” she told Hello. “I genuinely used to think there was never going to be a time when I could get rid of the acne and I think when you are suffering you think it’s going to be with you forever. Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t an overnight process – it took me a year and a half to be acne free, but through a good skincare routine and using the right products it can be combated. My skin aesthetician advised me that the products you use to treat acne don’t start working for 4-6 months, so it took six months before I started to see a difference. The secret to good skin is also about good lifestyle, it’s all about looking after the inside to make your skin glow."

4. She Takes Baths

One way Millie prioritizes self-care? She takes baths. "Drowning my sorrows in the bath because my Met Gala invite got lost 💔…," she captioned this Instagram snap. Not only have hot baths been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression, but one recent study found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.

5. She Cheats

Millie might eat healthy most of the time, but she is always down for the occasional cheat meal. “Last stop in LA,” she captioned this photo of herself standing outside of SoCal’s famous In-N-Out Burger.

6. She Hikes

Want to get into shape like Millie? Take a hike! “Obligatory Hollywood sign pic wearing all @puma,” she captioned this snap from one of her excursions.

Although summer doesn’t officially end until September 22nd, with Labor Day behind us, it feels like autumn is already here.

1. She Believes Beauty and Wellness are Correlated

“As I’ve matured, I’ve realized the true correlation is between beauty and wellness,” she told W Magazine. “You don’t see that when you’re 20 years old, but as you mature, you start to realize that you can’t rely on genetics anymore, and that you must make a conscious effort in your life. It’s easy to make, it’s not like oh, I have a huge list of things I do. But I am conscious about the decisions I make for myself. And I have noticed that when I feed my body rich, plant-based nutrients, I feel better and I look better. It’s that simple.”

2. She’s Happy to Be Where She Is

"It's about embracing and no longer looking for what's wrong and really being in acceptance of everything," she said at the In goop Health summit, "Gravity is going in directions that I'm not so fond of. I can look in the mirror occasionally and say 'you're lying, I don't look like that.' but the reality is the comfort I feel in my skin is the greatest gift. I wouldn't trade it. I'm just happy to be where I am."

3. She Loves to Dance

Demi has moves. On Instagram, Demi has danced to Goldfrapp (during a photoshoot), danced with fashion designer Pierpaolo Piccioli ("Dancing the night away with @pppiccioli") and done a conga line to ring in “Happy 2020!”—plus she’s done low-impact dance aerobics with a 15-minute Mirror workout.

4. She Once Added a New Mantra

“I added into my daily prayer a new mantra: to have the courage to be seen without padding or protection,” she detailed in her new memoir, Inside Out. “I couldn’t go on fighting my body and my weight; I had to make peace,” she said. “I started by giving up hard exercise. I never went back into the gym in the house. Never. … The room it occupied is now my office.”

5. She Makes it a Family Affair

Demi has starred in Andie swimwear ads alongside her daughters. "It was important to me to include my daughters in this campaign, and I hope others seize opportunities in their lives to create meaningful connections and celebrate every moment with the people they love," she wrote, saying the campaign represented "togetherness and showing up for the people you love," so "it was only fitting that I got to share this moment with the people I love most."

Maria Teresa Matus, the Chilean beauty and Arturo Vidal's ex-wife, has a fit figure and works hard to maintain it. She just shared a stunning new set of photos on Instagram this week. In them, she posed in a pool. Matus wore a light blue bathing suit and a silver visor, looking gorgeous. She captioned the post, “Happy Sunday.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Maria Teresa Matus 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 Proud Of Herself

Matus is all about self-love. She encouraged her followers to have the same attitude in this Instagram post. She wrote, “Smile!! Today is an excellent day to be proud of who you are!” It's good advice. "Negative thoughts manifest into chemical reactions that can affect your body by bringing more stress into your system and decreasing your immunity. By contrast, positive thoughts can actually release neuropeptides that help fight stress and potentially more-serious illnesses," says the Mayo Clinic. "Many people experience depression, sometimes due to chronic illnesses. Laughter can help lessen your stress, depression and anxiety and may make you feel happier. It can also improve your self-esteem."

2. She Never Gets Too Comfortable

Matus never gets super comfortable with the way her life is. She stressed the importance of this in the caption of this Instagram post. Matus wrote, “Time and circumstances can change at any time. Don't underestimate or hurt anyone. You may be powerful today, but remember time is more powerful than you!!!

3. She Rides Snowmobiles

Matus does a lot of outdoor activities to stay in shape. While she likes to spend time in the sun, she also enjoys the cold weather. One snow activity Matus likes to do is ride snowmobiles. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself riding in the mountains. She captioned the photo, “Andorra.”

4. She Swims

Another outdoor activity Matus likes to do is go swimming. She shares a lot of photos on Instagram of herself in the water. She posted this set of photos of herself wading. Matus captioned it, “Believe in yourself!! And discover that there are no limits… Beautiful week for all.” She also posted these photos of herself in the ocean in Hong Kong. She captioned it, “Smile, is the key to everyone’s heart...Great day to everyone.”

5. She Bikes

Matus likes to bike ride as a way of staying in shape. She posts a lot of photos of herself riding on Instagram. Matus shared this photo of herself riding in Barcelona. She captioned it, “And yes, sometimes it is necessary.” Matus also posted this photo of herself riding by the beach in the Maldives. She captioned it, “Lindo domingo para todos. Enjoy life everyday.”

German Model Leonie Hanne Stuns in Style

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
