Celebrity trainer and fitness influencer Senada Greca (known for putting Kim Kardashian through her paces) is incredibly generous about sharing information regarding health and wellness through her social media. Greca shared an Instagram reel of herself posing in a green swimsuit that highlighted her enviably strong physique, letting fans know the typical diet she enjoys on a daily basis. “Traveling and living in hotel rooms can challenge your dedication to a healthy lifestyle when it comes to nutrition and working out. But, where there’s a will, there’s always a way,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Greca 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. Eggs and Greens For Breakfast

Greca starts the day with three scrambled eggs, turkey bacon, a croissant, and mixed greens. “You might have noticed that eating eggs for breakfast may keep you feeling fuller for longer — that’s generally attributed to the high protein content in eggs,” say the experts at Keck Medicine of USC. “Whether you have an omelet for breakfast or a hard-boiled egg as a snack, eggs can help you stay satisfied after or between meals.”

2. Burrito Bowl For Lunch

Greca enjoys a burrito bowl for lunch, packed with healthy protein, rice, and salad. While white rice has folic acid, brown rice has more fiber. “Hands down, brown rice brings more to the table,” says registered dietitian Beth Czerwony, RD. “Brown rice will also keep you feeling full longer, which helps when you’re watching how much you eat.”

3. Turkey Burger For Dinner

senada-greca-1Senada Greca/Instagram

Dinner for Greca is usually more lean protein in the shape of a delicious turkey burger. She also enjoys a beet yogurt bowl for dessert. "Ground turkey contains less saturated fat than ground beef, giving it a more beneficial fat profile," says Amanda Beaver, a wellness dietitian at Houston Methodist. "In its place, ground turkey instead contains more polyunsaturated fat, which is a protective, healthier type of fat."

4. Say No To All or Nothing

senada-greca-4Senada Greca/Instagram

Greca makes a point of not being overly strict when it comes to food. “My ideology is to never restrict or completely eliminate things that I enjoy, but rather adjust portions or modify,” she says. “This is important especially when starting out in creating better, healthier habits. I’ve found that an all or nothing approach does not work for most, it can feel very restrictive and this can create a yoyo effect, a binge and starve cycle.”

5. Develop and Maintain Healthy Habits

Greca believes a healthy lifestyle is something that should be a long term goal—something that is sustainable and enjoyable. “When you allow for the ‘unhealthy’ foods in small amounts, and replace most of your food portions with healthier choices, a healthier life becomes more sustainable,” she says. “And eventually you will gravitate away from less healthy food choices to healthier ones.”

1. She Does Yoga

María doesn’t just do yoga – she teaches it. “I am super hyperkinetic, I do a thousand things at the same time, super intense, climbing hills, with an agenda that the more things I had, the more productive I felt. And yoga made me stop and I realized that wisdom is not on the side of productivity as we are used to but on the side of awareness and being aware and in the present moment,” she told Elmostrador. “Yoga, despite the fact that people think that it is just a physical exercise, is much more than that: it is about the many benefits that it can give you in a short time, and not only during the day but also throughout the week.”

2. She Believes, Everything in Moderation

María is a believer of the “everything in moderation” approach. “I am not an extremist at all, I myself drink alcohol and eat meat, although little, because with yoga my body asks for other foods,” she told Elmostrador.

3. She Drinks Lots of Fluids in the Morning

“My breakfast starts with a cup of warm herbal water with a squeeze of lemon. Then a fruit and/or vegetable juice (whatever is left in the fridge) in a Greenis machine (like the Hurom) with a shot –which I have frozen– wheatgrass (wheatgrass juice with many properties),” she told La Tercera. “Then I have a cortado coffee or Chai Dilmah, well loaded with a bit of chancaca and a splash of milk.”

4. This Is What She Eats in a Day

Her breakfast consists of two slices of whole-grain toasts with cheese, avocado, or eggs. “I have a stew for lunch, which can be nicknamed with potatoes and mushrooms or tomato with meat, for example, but in not very large portions. I accompany it with a salad with Hemps seeds and red tea to continue the day. In the afternoon I love to eat a bowl of oatmeal with milk, seeds and maqui or cranberry powder,” she said. “At night, I love to drink my sparkling wine or cider to say goodbye to the day, and sit more calmly to eat grilled fish with a lot of garlic and rice or puree, or a Rana pasta with a small salad and the inevitable glass of wine Siegel red. I love ending the day with a delicious chocolate, too."

5. She Goes to the Gym

María goes to the gym four times a week. “I do cardio and fit two days (body pump or TRX or Rowling in 30-minute classes) and the other two I do my one-and-a-half-hour Iyengar yoga practice. Then I eat a protein bar because my tendency is to lose weight and that way I build muscle and not lose weight as much,” she told La Tercera.

The Only Way Is Essex star Georgia Kousoulou is enjoying a fabulous trip to Ibiza with her girlfriends. Kousoulou posted pictures of herself wearing a black swimsuit top and black skirt, captioning the pictures “Sometimes you just need a little girls weekend 💃💃💃🐜.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Kousoulou 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 Carbs

Kousoulou loves carbs so much she launched a campaign called Powered By Bread. "I’ve never cut out carbs in my life, that’s why this bread campaign is so good,” she tells Closer UK. “Even before I learned about it I did think I needed to cut out carbs - so that is why I decided to take part in this campaign. Now I have learned about it, it just makes sense. It’s one of those things, you can’t cut out carbs.”

2. She Was Realistic About Her Post-Baby Body

Kousoulou was determined to take her time “bouncing back” after giving birth to son Brody. “Slowly starting to feel like myself again,” she captioned an Instagram post. “Just before this holiday I started watching what I ate and went on a calorie deficit because I decided I wanted to, and I decided I was ready. And I’m proud of myself for doing it for me. Brody is 15 months and it’s now my time. I still have some way to go but I have my goal. Mummas please don’t feel pressure, please do things when YOU want to. Everyone feels different, don’t let anyone pressure you. It's enough pressure being a mum; we don’t need no extra!”

3. She Never Skips Breakfast

Scrambled,Eggs,On,Toasted,Bread,For,Healthy,Breakfast,Or,BrunchShutterstock

Kousoulou never starts the day without a healthy breakfast—her favorite is scrambled eggs on wholewheat toast. "Studies have found that although people who skip breakfast eat slightly fewer calories during the day, they tend to have higher body mass index, or BMI," says clinical dietitian Christy C. Tangney, PhD. "Much of the research just makes good common sense. If you start with a healthy, satisfying meal in the morning you're less apt to nibble on less nutritious things during the day, which we often do out of hunger — you grab the first or easiest thing in front of you."

4. Lunch Is Protein-Powered

Kousoulou enjoys chicken salad with grilled halloumi cheese for lunch. “Halloumi, like other dairy foods, is rich in calcium, a mineral we need for muscle and nerve function as well as strong healthy bones and teeth,” says registered nutritionist Nicola Shubrook. “A portion (80g) supplies a significant contribution towards your daily calcium needs, something which is of importance for all life-stages.”

5. She Loves Green Juice and Protein Shakes

Kousoulou enjoys drinking at least one green juice and protein shake a day. “It is better to eat than to drink veggies and fruits,” says Dr. David Katz, director of the Yale University Prevention Research Center. “But it is better to drink them than not to have them at all.”

1. She Once Lost 40 Pounds in Two Months

While preparing for Miss Universe, the Dominican beauty went to drastic measures to lose weight. “This super strict diet that I followed for almost two months helped me lose weight, 40 pounds. In Miss Universe I reached 115 pounds. Imagine yourself. A big difference,” she explained in a video shared to Facebook. "Obviously this diet takes a lot of sacrifices, but the reward is good and the result is what you want at the end of the day, which is to lose weight and look spectacular." She added: “Obviously it was not easy. For me, the part of all the pressure that I had for Miss Universe was very difficult. It was in two months, I did not have a year to prepare. So that's why I had to make it very strict,” she confessed. “I recommend that you do it exactly as I told you now and that you really want it. If possible. At the end of the day the important thing is how you feel.”

2. Here Is What She Would Eat in a Day

Clarissa followed a strict diet starting with breakfast, two egg whites, a small cup of 6 to 7 pieces of pineapple, and tea or coffee without sugar. She would also have green tea. For a snack, between breakfast and lunch, she would eat a green apple or six almonds, followed by a lunch of lettuce and tomato salad with a can of tuna with lots of lemon. “I tell you a can of tuna because it has more protein. In my case, when I made it I only ate half a can of tuna. But I recommend that you eat it completely,” she said. For dinner, she would eat the remainder of the tuna with a salad of cucumber, tomato and lettuce”.

3. She Worked Out Three Times a Day

Two months prior to the competition Molina started working out three times a day, which is very extreme. Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and 2 days of muscle strengthening activity, according to the current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans

4. She Rides Bikes

Clarissa also enjoys riding bikes, which the Cleveland Clinic explains is a low-impact aerobic exercise, 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 Dances

Clarissa can also be found dancing all over social media. Dancing is a great workout for many reasons. Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.

1. She Lives on Tuna and Rice

Malena, who sometimes goes by just Lena, joked about the simplicity of her everyday diet to Infobae. “Appalling!” she chided about her diet, which mirrors her boyfriend’s. “She didn't lie to you: we live on tuna and rice. We add some egg, a tomato, all very sad! But there is also a lot of delivery or we eat out,” she added.

2. She Battled an Eating Disorder

“From the age of 15 to 17 I had a very bad time,” Malena told Infobae when asked if she had struggled with an eating disroder. “But really bad. In fact, I was the one who realized that she needed help and I asked mom to take me to the doctor. I did treatment in a place called La casita and, luckily, I feel that this stage of my life has been overcome. But I do not forget the subject and, therefore, I try to post about bulimia and anorexia in the networks, to raise awareness about how important it is to treat yourself on time.”

3. She Drinks Coffee

You can often find Lena starting her morning with a cup of coffee. There are many reasons why you should too. Science continues to prove that drinking coffee is great for your health. Drinking two to three cups a day of most types of coffee – especially a mild to moderate intake of ground, instant, and decaffeinated coffee – may protect you from cardiovascular disease and an early death, claims a 2022 study published in European Journal of Preventive Cardiology.

4. She Hydrates

Malena makes sure to hydrate with water and other liquids. Here she is drinking out of a coconut. According to the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine men should drink about 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of fluids a day and women about 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) of fluids.

5. These Are Her Favorite Indulgences

When she isn’t eating tuna and rice, you can find Lena munching on her favorite foods. According to her Instagram feed these seem to be burgers, cookies, sushi, and cake. “Sushi can contain a lot of the different food groups wrapped up in one,” dietitian Maxine Smith, RD, LD, told the Cleveland Clinic, which adds: "This means you’ll get protein, carbs, fat, antioxidant nutrients (vitamin E and C), and fat-soluble vitamins such as B12 and K."

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. I don't have anything on them today really, except this product, but it's the Rare Beauty lifting gel stuff. I mean, Selena, 'thank you' is all I can say. I love it, so I'm going to put it up so that you know what it is, but that's what it is. That is the brow lifting that people are talking about. That's all I got."

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

Hewitt tells People that she wants to be a role model for others. In it, she shared the advice she gives to young girls. “When I meet young girls, I’m always like, ‘Just do me one favor. Love what you look like right now – and remember I said it 10 years from now because it’s the greatest gift I can give.’”

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

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.

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.
