1. She Kayaks

Hegde loves to spend time outside. One thing she loves doing is kayaking. While on a trip to Goa, Hedge went kayaking in the water. She shared these photos of the trip on Instagram. “When I went to Goa, I really wanted to go kayaking,” she captioned the post. “So I told my friend we could rent a kayak and go by ourselves, and he freaked out a little cause he hadn't done it before. But he was a yes man, he trusted me and he came along for the ride. 30 mins later, it was just the two of us somewhere in the middle of the ocean with the sky covering us like a blanket, and the sun slowly going below the horizon changing the colour of the water and the sky. The view was f***ing worth it!”

2. She Dances

Hegde loves to dance as a way of staying in shape. She shares a lot of dance videos on her Instagram. Hegde posted this video of herself in the studio, captioning it, “Fresstyling after 8 months in a dance studio. The feeling of barefeet and wooden floor is just ❤.” She also posted this video of herself dancing with a partner, captioning it, “Vibing and free-styling.”

3. She Changed Her Fitness

Hegde revealed in the caption of this Instagram video that she decided to change her approach to fitness. She writes, “The whole of 2021 has been on a downhill for me mentally, physically, and emotionally. Post covid my life changed for the worse. Bad food habits (having less than 2 meals). Bad sleep cycle, very little or no excercise, difficulty to just get out of the bed, always irritable, constantly breaking down without knowing why,procrastinating all the time, complete shut off on all social interactions cause people constantly commented on how skinny/weak I looked. I was in my personal worst of 43 kilos and I was pretending to be happy constantly while I was so insecure about my body. So after the push from my bestfriend, I started working out to get my life back in order. It's been 3 weeks, I have been going to the gym and my life already feels so much better. I'm waking up at 6am, sleeping by 11, eating right ( from almost 2 meals to atleast 4 meals ), getting more sun time. I'm not at my best but soon I will be and I can't wait to show off my gains to you all soon.”

4. She Pole Dances

Hegde likes to pole dance as a way of staying in shape. She shared this video of herself doing so on Instagram. She captioned it, “I took my first ever pole class about 3 years ago in Thailand and it made me realise the strength work and time that needs to go into learning and mastering it. Sadly Bangalore does not have pole classes and seeing a friend of mine start pole dancing, motivated me to take a class when I was here in Bombay. This was totally worth it!”

5. She Swims

Hegde loves to spend time by the water. She shares a lot of photos on her Instagram of herself having a pool day. She loves to swim as a way of staying in shape. Hegde posted this video of herself underwater. She captioned it, “There’s plenty of fish in the sea, but I’m a mermaid.”

Hegde loves to go outside, even when the pandemic was happening. In an Instagram post, she encouraged her followers to go outside and get into nature. “Just appreciating the things we can't have right now. Spent a weekend just a few weeks before the lockdown at a place a little off Mangalore. It was just nature and people who really appreciated it. It was so beautiful to just be there and have a piece of nature all to yourself. No city lights, no sky scraping buildings, just tall trees and a sky full of stars. We would do anything for a getaway like that right now right? Anyway, now that we are locked up at home, surrounded by walls all we want is to get out for a breath of fresh air. That's all we care about. SO REMEMBER. When we go back to living our normal lives, remember to be nice to mother earth. This is what gives us life. And to live a life the most important thing is a planet to live on, air to breathe, food and water to survive, everything else is an illusion we have created about things we think we need to survive’. Work towards the things that matter. Be nice to Mother Earth.”

1. She Snorkels

According to this photo on Instagram, one of Hegde’s favorite beach activities is snorkeling. Hegde captioned the photo, “Found Nemo! He and his friends were cuties.” Just be sure to wear a mask. "Chlorine is a pretty powerful disinfectant and can, in fact, cause some damage to the outer layer cells that protect the cornea," says Dr. Muriel Schornack, a Mayo Clinic optometrist. "The eye becomes red, irritated. You might become photophobic, or sensitive to light. Your vision might blur a little bit, and your eyes are going to feel irritated or even, frankly, painful," says Dr. Schornack.

2. She Does Pilates

Hegde is a big fan of doing Pilates as a workout. She posted this reel on Instagram of herself doing exercises on a revolver, with a trainer. She captioned the reel, “Me trying to burn off last night’s dessert.” "Some of the principles that guide the Pilates method include concentration on each movement, use of the abdomen and low back muscles, flowing movement patterns that are precise and a steady and controlled breathing. Depending on the exercise, Pilates routines can be performed on specially-designed apparatuses, including a bed-like structure called a reformer, or on a mat or blanket," says the Cleveland Clinic.

3. She Does Yoga

Another of Hegde’s favorite workouts is yoga. She posted this photo on Instagram of her doing a yoga pose, captioning the post, “Next up.. take the other foot off the ground and fly off into the sunset.” "While most of the evidence for the effects of yoga on weight loss is anecdotal or experiential, yoga teachers, students and practitioners across the world find that yoga helps to support weight loss. Many teachers specialize in yoga programs to promote weight management and find that even gentle yoga practices help support weight loss. People do not have to practice the most vigorous forms of yoga to lose weight. Yoga encourages development of a positive self-image, as more attention is paid to nutrition and the body as a whole. A study from the Journal of Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine found that regular yoga practice was associated with less age-related weight gain. The lifestyle study of 15,500 adults in their 50’s covered 10 years of participants’ weight history, physical activity, medical history and diet," says the Yoga Alliance.

4. She Does Leg Workouts

Hegde posted this video on Instagram of herself doing squats on one leg. She captioned the video, “Burning all that sugar I’ve eaten in the past 3 days.” "Do leg slides to tone your abdominal and leg muscles. Lie flat on your back and slightly bend your knees. Inhale and slide one leg to a straight position. Exhale and return to the starting position. Repeat with the other leg," says the Mayo Clinic.

5. She Gets Outside

Hegde is a big fan of going outside and getting fresh air. In February last year, Hegde posted this photo on Instagram of her hiking. ""We get our vitamin D from the sun. Most of us don't get a lot of sun in the winter. So many of us start to see low vitamin D in the winter months, and there are a few studies that suggest low vitamin D may make you more susceptible to colds and flu," says the Mayo Clinic.

When Chandna signed on to appear in Naagin 5, she had to get in shape. She shared her process to Times Of India. "I had to say bye-bye to all the happy weight and bring a transformation because my character needed that,” she explained. “If you are playing a naagin you need to look sexy, fit and someone who can easily do the stunts. The previous seasons' actresses, who played naagins, had already set a bar so high, that it was important to look different and set a new trend."

2. She Did Her Own Stunts

Entertainment India February 2021Prodip Guha/Getty Images

In Naagin 5, Chandna did a lot of her own stunts. "When I signed up for the show, I did not have time to go to the gym, because we were shooting for 12-13 hours,” she tells Times Of India. “Naagin is not a show that requires you to be at one place throughout the day. The show had a fast pace, we had to run around a lot because of outdoor scenes and do a lot of stunts and action scenes. This helped me burn my calories, so I was burning good calories on the sets, shooting for 12-13 hours."

3. She Believes In Balance

Chandna opened up about her diet to Times Of India. She says that she believes in eating a balanced diet. "I used to eat bhakhri, rice, veggies, chicken and fish. I also consumed jowar bhakhris. I kept away from junk food but I had my 'cheat' days when I used to go out and eat pav bhaji and pizza. The idea was to be physically active and run around a lot, eat in small proportions than totally deprive yourself."

4. She Stays Consistent

So, how does she stay in such incredible shape? From strength training to boxing, here’s a look at her go-to fitness moves.

She Strength Trains

In her Instagram post, Sharvari is seen doing a strength training exercise. The Mayo Clinic says that strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories. Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

She Does Yoga

Sharvari shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. One thing she likes to do is yoga. Sharvari posted this video of herself doing poses on her page. John Hopkins Medicine states that yoga is very beneficial. “Regular yoga practice may reduce levels of stress and body-wide inflammation, contributing to healthier hearts. Several of the factors contributing to heart disease, including high blood pressure and excess weight, can also be addressed through yoga.”

She Plays Padel

Sharvari likes to play padel to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself on the court. Playing padel has a lot of health benefits. Everybody Health & Leisure says, “It improves cardiovascular fitness, helps to build strength and endurance, enhances coordination and promotes overall physical and mental well-being. Not to mention, it’s a fantastic way to burn calories.”

She Boxes

Another thing that Sharvari does to keep herself in shape is box. She first picked this up when training for the film, Vedaa. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself punching a bag.

She captioned the post, “Decided to seas the day!” Better Health says that running is very beneficial. “Regular running or jogging offers many health benefits.

Natasa Stankovic in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Wednesday Challenge"

Stankovic shares her go-to workout moves, from squats to lunges, cardio, Pilates, and strength training.

Entertainment India - March 2023

Natasa Stankovic isn’t just a content creator—she’s a fitness inspiration. Known for sharing intense workout sessions on Instagram, she keeps her followers motivated with creative exercise challenges and dynamic routines.

In her latest post, Stankovic teamed up with Aleksandar Illic for a lower body blast, pushing through variations of squats and lunges. Dressed in a sleek two-piece workout set, she captioned the session, “Wednesday challenge,” proving that fitness is all about consistency and fun.

So, how does she maintain her lean, strong physique? From strength training to Pilates, here’s a look at Stankovic’s go-to workout moves.

She Does Squats

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

She Does Cardio

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

She Does Pilates

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial. The Cleveland Clinic says, “One of the reasons Pilates is such a good workout is that it specifically focuses on building core strength.”

She Strength Trains

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health 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.”

Kim French in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Real Results" Workout

Learn how she sculpts her powerhouse physique with deadlifts, lunges, squats, and more.

Kim French is more than just a personal trainer—she’s a fitness coach who empowers thousands through her Believe App and Instagram workouts. Known for her structured, effective home training plans, she proves that you don’t need a gym full of heavy weights to build serious strength.

In a recent Instagram post, French shared a glimpse of her at-home training, reminding followers that smart training delivers "REAL results." Rocking a sleek two-piece workout set, she showcased some of her go-to exercises, emphasizing that with the right strategy, anyone can see progress.

So what’s in her routine? From deadlifts to hip thrusts, here’s how French sculpts her powerhouse physique.

She Does Deadlifts

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

She Does Lunges

Another exercise that French is seen doing in her Instagram post is lunges. NASM says that they are very beneficial. “The lunge is a versatile, simple and effective movement for lower body training. Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

She Does Squats

French is seen doing squats in her Instagram video. According to The Cleveland Clinic, squats are very beneficial. “Here’s a quick look at the many benefits of squats, also known as bodyweight squats or air squats: Works major muscle groups. Burns calories. Strengthens your core. Improves lower body strength. Enhances stability and balance. Betters your posture.”

She Does Hamstring Curls

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
