Nati Jota is enjoying a boat ride in her bathing suit!

How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Nati Jota 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 Does Strength Training Workouts

Nati is hardcore at the gym. “I found in strength training something different, a challenge very obvious because for example yesterday you were carrying 65 and today you reached 70. The advances are re-evident and me being very mental and rational suits me,” she captioned a post of her intense workout.

2. She Plays Soccer

Nati also is a big fan of soccer. “My happiest self, so cheesy, but the combination of enjoyment + knowing that it does me good, generates me wanting to play soccer 37 times a week. Seriously: how many things do we enjoy a lot do our body good? Lettuce and stretching in the mornings don't give me happiness, excuse me; and leaving party and alfajores wouldn't be the healthiest. The fulbito is the magic that unites enjoyment and salutttt so let me live there, inside a court, of 5, of 7, of 8, it doesn't matter,” she captioned a post.

3. She Recently Trained for a Half Marathon

Nati recently completed a half marathon. While training for the Buenos Aires 21k she admitted she was more focused on the journey than the finish line. “I don't care about the times, I care about the goal as a push and novelty to test and test me especially to my head. Real that we aren't (well, at least I) accustomed to immersing ourselves in an activity that disconnects us so much from all the constant banal stimulus,” she captioned a post.

4. She Rides Bikes

Nati also rides bikes. Aside from being a fun form of transportation, the Cleveland Clinic explains that biking, a low-impact aerobic exercise, is great for building muscle, improving strength and flexibility, and improving balance. It can also boost mental health and help other health conditions, including arthritis.

5. She Drinks Red Wine

Nati enjoys the occasional glass of red wine. “Bye bye Mendoza! I love you,” she captioned a recent Instagram post. “Red wine, in moderation, has long been thought of as heart healthy,” says the Mayo Clinic. “The alcohol and certain substances in red wine called antioxidants may help prevent coronary artery disease, the condition that leads to heart attacks.”

But a year ago, in January 2017, I started training with Fausto from Epo Training and I got a lot of vibe.”

2. She Eats Healthy

Joti makes sure to eat healthy. In the same interview, she talked about what foods she tries to avoid. "I have noticed more changes in recent times because I began to accompany the training with diets and a healthy diet because, although I do not eat vegetables, I try to to avoid fried food and flour, which is what makes you fatter.”

Rafaella Santos is looking sunkissed, relaxed, and happy in Miami Beach, Florida. The 27-year-old younger sister of Brazilian soccer star Neymar shared a balcony picture from her trip, posing in a black bikini against a background of blue skies, palm trees, ocean, and sand. “Wonderful,” a fan commented. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Santos 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. Fresh Fruit Bowl For Breakfast

Santos enjoys fresh fruit bowls for a healthy start to the day, especially with strawberries. “One cup of strawberries (or about eight medium strawberries) has only 45 calories, 3 grams of dietary fiber (12 percent of your daily value) and more vitamin C than an orange,” says Allyn Wergin, RDN to the Mayo Health Clinic. “Vitamin C is a known antioxidant that helps protect the body against oxidative stress.”

2. Swimming In the Sea

Santos loves swimming, be it in the pool or ocean. “Whether you have a joint injury or are recovering from surgery, the water will allow you to stay active, maintain fluidity in your joints and activate multiple muscle groups,” says Valerie Taraborelli, a physician assistant in orthopedic surgery at Banner Health in Arizona. “Swimming in warm water can be advantageous as this will allow for improved circulation that relaxes muscles and allows for safe execution of stretches and exercises.”

3. Chocolate Lover

Santos’ favorite dessert is anything chocolate-based. “People who ate dark chocolate reported that they felt less stressed, and researchers confirmed that after eating dark chocolate, there were reduced levels of the stress hormone cortisol,” says Johns Hopkins Health. “This may be related to dark chocolate’s effects on heart health, since stress is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.”

4. Bonding With Her Dog

Santos enjoys the many health benefits of bonding with a pet. “Stress is not the only problem which our bond to our pets can help,” says Stanley Coren PhD, DSc, FRSC. “Up to 25% of people who go to general practitioners do so for depressive and anxiety disorders. Depression is actually considered to be much more disabling, both socially and even in terms of physical functioning, than many chronic physical illnesses such as diabetes, arthritis and back pain.”

5. Cosmetic Enhancements

Santos is open about her cosmetic enhancements. "I'm all for it and I do it," she says. "I've already had lip fillers. My mouth has always been fleshy, but I put it on the upper part. I also do Botox and filler for dark circles and even peeling and skin cleansing.”

Jacqueline Jossa is an actress, best known for her role on the long-running series, EastEnders. She and her family recently took a vacation, and Jossa posted some highlights on Instagram.

Read on to see 5 ways Jaqueline Jossa 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 Has A Supportive Husband

Jossa is all about body positivity. And so is her husband, Dan Osborne. She tells Metro that Osborne encourages her to not be too obsessive when it comes to her health and wellness. “He hates it when I’ve gone on strict diets. He’s like: ‘Babe, come on, don’t kill yourself over it.’ He makes me feel so confident all the time.”

2. She Paddleboards

Jossa spends a lot of time outside. Her Instagram is full of photos of herself doing outdoor activities with her loved ones. One thing she likes to do is go paddleboarding. Jossa recently went on a lake trip with her family, and shared some paddleboarding photos. She shared these highlights, captioning them, “A day with my best friends. Cousins.”

3. She’s Comfortable With Herself

Jossa briefly went through a period of being body-shamed. However, she tells The Sun that the ordeal made her want to feel more confident in herself. "You feel ‘I don’t need to be a size 8’," said the star. "I can be happy with how I look. Ultimately when I’m naked and in sexy underwear, I feel like a 10/10.”

4. She Makes Time To Relax

Jossa opened up about her wellness routine to Heatworld. She says that she always makes time for herself to relax. "I would definitely put the phone away, watch a film maybe, definitely have a bath, exfoliate, smother myself in all the oils, moisturisers, body creams, hair mask, face mask, tan, you name it, absolutely everything."

5. She Uses A Facial Mist

Jossa has amazing skin. She tells Heatworld that one of her secrets is using a facial mist. "I use this every other day,” Jossa says. “This is like the face mist from my BPerfect range (£12.95), but honestly it's the best thing I've ever been a part of, I absolutely love it. You know like when you come up with something new and you hope it's good? This is actually a game-changer for me, because you wake up looking like you've just been on holiday. I literally just spray it before I go to bed.”

Mexican actress Sandra Itzel is used to being the center of attention—and she’s clearly comfortable in front of the camera. Itzel shared a picture of herself posing in a neon pink bathing suit, with her hair in braids. “I think of you every night,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Itzel 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. All About the Cardio

Itzel never skips her cardio, which is the ultimate de-stresser, experts say. “Not only that, but it combats depression, improves your self-esteem and releases tension-fighting hormones like serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine,” says clinical exercise physiologist Erik Van Iterson, PhD, MS. “Try getting in a 30-minute workout five or more days a week that raises your heart rate for the duration of the activity. Or try three, 10-minute workouts, five or more days a week.”

2. Dancing Queen

Itzel is an amazing dancer. “The everyday life of cell phones, laptops, and screens can result in a shrinking back and in, rather than an expanding up and out,” says choreographer and artistic director Kristin Sudeikis. “The dance floor offers an invitation to unapologetically practice taking up space while also acknowledging the people around you—which is something we could use more of in the world, don’t you think?”

3. Sauna Sessions

Itzel loves using the sauna, which can offer many health benefits (but make sure you consult a doctor first). “Evidence over the past few decades shows that sauna bathing has an immediate positive effect on blood pressure,” says UCLA Health. “But for a bigger benefit, combine your sauna bathing with exercise. Recent research finds that using the sauna for 15 minutes after a workout, three times a week, results in a more significant improvement in blood pressure than exercise alone.”

4. Long Baths

Itzel enjoys long baths. “Taking baths has great physical and mental health benefits,” says family medicine provider Amy Zack, MD. “Baths help many people sleep well. They also create a good environment for meditation, thought and escape from everyday stressors.”

5. Coffee Please

Itzel loves fresh coffee, which can be very good for you. “Coffee may help some people maintain alertness and energy levels thanks to its caffeine content,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “When coffee is consumed, it is absorbed into the bloodstream and travels to the brain where it ‘fires up’ certain neurons which may improve memory, mood, energy and cognitive function, if consumed in moderation. Other reports suggest drinking coffee before exercise may reduce rates of exertion and potentially improve athletic performance.”

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.

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

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.
