Sharna Burgess In Workout Gear Dances For Brian Austin Green

Dancer Sharna Burgess is poking fun at her “mom life” in a new social media post. Burgess, 39, shared a video of herself wearing black dance workout gear, dancing for Brian Austin Green to a children’s nursery rhyme. “When he asks you to dance for him but you’re a toddler mom,” reads the text over the video of Burgess doing ‘head, shoulders, knees and toes’. “Toddler mamas raise your hand if you can relate ✋😂,” she captioned the funny post. Burgess is a busy working mom—here’s how she keeps it all going.

1. Diet and Workouts

Burgess starts the day with black coffee and vitamins. “Throughout the day what I eat always changes. I can easily get bored with food, however I made a conscious decision to cut out sugar, bread, and pasteurized dairy about a year ago,” she told Lapalme Magazine. “And to up my water intake to 3 liters a day. I make sure my snacks are things like raw almonds and cranberries, raw veggies with hummus, or a piece of fruit. Little adjustments like that are game changers. For workouts, I swear by hot yoga and reformer Pilates. If I am not dancing and need cardio I do interval training on the treadmill.”

2. Advice For Dancers

Burgess has good advice for aspiring professional dancers. “It is a difficult field to be successful in, so if it is what you want most the minute you wake up to the minute you go to sleep, if it is what you dream about, then never ever give up,” she told Lapalme Magazine. “It is not just about talent, it is about hard work, blood sweat and many many tears. Part 2 is this, plan your life for after dance, you can not dance forever, eventually you will have to find another way to pay the bills because well… That is life…your education is just as important as your technique.”

3. Favorite Dance Style

Burgess says it’s difficult to pick her favorite type of dance. “For me, what I love is storylines,” she told InLove Magazine. “I love when a dance has some truth to it. It’s always great to create characters, but when you get to tell a person’s story and create something that is about them, it is just the most magnificent feeling. In the show, I create pieces for other people all the time that are about their lives; about their personal triumphs over adversity. I really enjoy that part. It’s usually a contemporary, or a Viennese waltz – something with a lot of emotion in it.”

4. Mental Health Awareness

Burgess and Brian Austin Green previously took part in Movember, highlighting how important mental health is for men. "Men are just so behind the ball as far as really taking care of themselves," Green told People. "And there's this stigma and this thought of, if you're a man, you're supposed to be the rock, and you're supposed to be the real emotionally and physically secure one and then hold everyone together and be the glue.” Burgess agrees. “To just step outside with someone else and talk about things, whatever arises, is so healthy," she says. "I would love for that to be the way for more people, and there is access to that with things like Movember for men. They do have access to be able to do things like this."

5. Acts of Kindness

Burgess tries to practice kindness in her daily life. “It’s those small acts of kindness that make a difference,” she told InLove Magazine. “It’s helping someone pick up their groceries, or helping someone who doesn’t have money for the bus, or giving up your seat for someone else; there are so many acts of kindness that take absolutely nothing out of us, that make someone else’s day a little easier for them. That’s how we are going to change the world, by changing us, by knowing that our kindness matters.”

Cheryl Burke has no plans of returning to Dancing With the Stars as of now, but she is dishing about her time on the show in a new podcast Sex, Lies, & Spray Tans where she interviews previous contestants and pro dancers to get the dirt on flings, heated arguments and all the drama that the audience didn't see. The 39-year-old believes the podcast will honor the show that she was a part of for 26 seasons, but isn't holding back on the secrets. "I do believe we owe it to the fans, first of all, just to celebrate the fact that the show has been on for so long," she told PEOPLE. "We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the fans." Although Burke isn't competing for the mirror ball trophy right now, she does still keep up with her workouts. Here's how the dancer stays in shape. Read on.

1. She Does Yoga

She wrote, "There are not enough words that I can write in this caption to describe my deepest gratitude and appreciation for @brookeburke, @yogandoretreats, and the amazing people who I spent the last few days with. You know who you are! I will forever cherish our time together and thank you for sharing your vulnerability, your strengths, and most of all, thank you for sharing your heart with me."

Getting enough quality sleep and staying hydrated doesn't just help with weight loss, but also has many health benefits. To help ensure she drinks enough water and rest, Burke uses Fitbit. She told Hollywood Life, [I’m] "loving my Fitbit because it makes me want to reach my specific goals and it pushes you to do so along the way, all the while tracking my sleep, water intake, and number of steps per day, etc. Each workout is almost 60 minutes long."

Julianne Hough is showing off her dance moves – and her slim figure. In a new social media montage, the Dancing with the Stars judge dances her way through life, confessing that she is always busting a move. “Not, not dancing,” she joked in the Instagram caption. “I love it!!! And I love you!!!” one of her followers commented. “Whatever it is, babe, you have GOT IT. :) Really hitting your stride. And lookin' gorgeous, btw,'' added another. What do you need to know about Hough’s go-to exercise? Celebwell has the details.

1. She Moves “Every Day"

Hough gets her daily exercise. “Working out and staying healthy is part of my daily routine,” she told Us Weekly. “I move my body every day doing a variety of workouts.”

2. She Does Body by Simon

For years, Julianne relied on Body by Simone, a dance-inspired cardio workout created by Simone de la Rue. The method mixes dancing with intervals of conditioning moves to target the upper and lower body and core. "We do lots of mat work, body-weight moves and free weights," she told Good Morning America.""The trampoline cardio might sound crazy, but it's a great low-impact option. As a dancer, you've got to take good care of your knees!"

3. She Created KINRGY

Julianne formulated her own workout, KINRGY, inspired by her love of dance. “Dance continues to surprise me. Dance strengthens muscles that I didn’t even know I had - physically, emotionally and energetically 💪🏼😊✨ I’m feeling so grateful for my daily #KINRGY practice which brings me strength and power - internally and externally! Connecting with the elements and moving intuitively is what it’s all about! The more I move, the more I feel myself in #flow and fully expressed,” she wrote in a recent Instagram post.

4. She Maintains It’s “Not About Getting the Steps Right”

"It's important to remember that it’s not about getting the steps right, but just about keeping your heart rate up and having a good time," Hough told GMA.

5. What Makes Dancing a Great Workout?

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.

The Bachelorette alum shows off her incredible figure in a bathing suit via one of her latest social media posts, getting deep about life. “A few thoughts from the last 10 days,” she started the caption, adding a few of her beliefs like “Red wine and noodles forever,” “True Self care is how you get your power back,” and “Aging is not scary, the alternative is.” How does she stay so fit?

1. She Dances

Kaitlyn, who competed on Dancing with the Stars, has been burning calories by cutting a rug since she was a kid. “I have always been a very healthy person. I started dancing when I was three years old, and was dancing at least six times a week until I was about 19. Then I moved to Vancouver where I was cheerleading and dancing a few times a week,” she told Elle Canada.

2. She Spins

It wasn’t until Kaitlyn moved to Germany when she was 26 and realized that she “needed fitness” in her life that she started working out. “I wasn’t dancing anymore. I had never stepped foot in a gym to lift weights, so that was very intimidating,” she told Elle. “When I moved back to Vancouver that’s when I got my certificate to teach spin, so I started doing that before the show. For me, it wasn’t really about losing weight or anything like that, I was pretty happy in my own skin. I just loved the feeling of getting stronger.”

3. She Works Out Wherever She Is

Even when she is traveling, Kaitlyn prioritizes fitness. “I do try to workout wherever I go. If I am just there for a couple days, I pack one cute outfit and then all of my Reebok clothes so that I am ready to workout when I can. At the airport I make sure I am not taking the tram to each gate and I will walk. I try and be very cautious of making small decisions and small goals for myself to keep me active,” she told Elle.

4. She Got Super Strong for DWTS

To get ready for Dancing with the Stars, Kaitlyn majorly revamped her approach to fitness. "I’ve been working so hard on my mental and physical health over the last 14 weeks," she captioned an Instagram photo documenting her progress over 14 weeks. "Reading, meditating, resting, working out, lifting heavy, Pilates, boxing, going to physical therapy for mobility and strength, getting sports massages, dry needling,” she said about her routine.

5. She Indulges

"Anything I do in life, I always want to work hard, play hard and so I'm still drinking my wine, I'm still eating my McDonald's on Sundays, but I am working hard through the week," Kaitlyn told E News. “I always eat pretty healthy. I worked with this girl named Massy Fit. To be honest, I've been just eating way more than I'm used to. So, definitely more carbs, more protein, which is hard for me because I'm a pescatarian. Sundays are my day I just go like headfirst to McDonald's.”

Shaughna Phillips is sharing a body positive message – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Love Island star shows off her gorgeous figure while opening up to her fans. “I’ve been meaning to post this for aaaagesssss, and I just kept chickening out which sounds ridiculous but it’s the truth,” she wrote. “This is not easy for me, it’s hard to just be yourself when social media can be SO cruel at times. Full disclosure, I’m not in the place I want to be physically, I have ‘baby weight’ to lose plus a bit more lol, but I’m not going to let my intrusive thoughts about how I look get in the way of me living my life,” she continued. “I really want to be the best role model I can be for Lucia, and I’m so determined that she won’t grow up with the same warped view on body image as I did, and that’s starts with me. I know it’s a bit late for New Year’s resolutions, but I’m sure we all have room for one more 🙋🏼‍♀️ Here’s to getting real in 2024, who wants to join me?” How does the reality star approach health and wellness? Celebwell has the details on her lifestyle habits.

1. She Took Drastic Measures to Slim Down for Love Island

Shaughna went to drastic measures to lose weight for the show, sharing about it in a 17-minute video on her YouTube channel. She wouldn’t allow herself to eat treats over the 2019 Christmas period and asked her colleague to "shame" her every time she tried to. “I think for me and the series that I was in, we had it the hardest... because the casting process was over Christmas,” she said. “Everyone and anyone indulges, but because we knew we were potentially going into the villa, I for one did not have one Quality Street that whole Christmas season... Now, that was a bad Christmas.”

2. She Worked Out 90 Minutes Every Night

She went to the gym for 90 minutes every evening and her routine was “very, very strict,” she said. “I would do 20 to 25 minutes on the treadmill very fast at a high incline. I would do a few sets on the lat pulldown machine... and then I used to do a quick circuit on the mats. I used to use like free weights and stuff and that would literally be it every single day.”

3. Working Out Makes Her Feel Better

What motivates her to stay in shape? “Honestly? I become an anxious mess if I don't work out. It sounds cliche, and everyone always says, ‘Oh when you work out you feel better,’ but it’s actually true,” she told Bustle.

4. She Launched a Nutrition Plan

Shaughna launched her own fitness, nutrition, and lifestyle plan, Be You With Shaughna. “No before and after shots. No guaranteed ‘drop a dress size’ promises. No get fit quick plan,” she writes. “What my plan does include? Dedicated work to improve your mental health. Workouts that go at your pace. Nutritional advice aimed at encouraging your relationship with food, and not how to restrict your food.”

5. She’s an “Early Bird”

“I've always been an early bird. Ever since I was little, I've just always been up literally before the sun,” Shaughna told Bustle. “I don't like being rushed in the morning, so although I could probably easily get another hour in bed, I would rather just get up and start waking up gradually. These days, my normal morning routine starts at 6 a.m. I get up, make my breakfast, and have a cup of coffee, or tea, depending on my mood. I watch a little bit of TV before I head to workout at 8:30 a.m. I like to get it done and dusted because that way it means nothing like social media can impact my workout.”

6. She Takes Baths

“I'm definitely a bath girl. To the point where I miss having them in the summer because the last thing you want is to increase your body temperature,” Shaughna told Bustle. “When I used to go to the gym after work, in the days before Love Island, I remember the moments when I would see a text from my mum saying, ‘Your bath is running’ and it would literally feel like I’d won the lottery. Thinking about my bath is one thing I used to do to get me through the gym. Feeling that post-workout ache and being in the bath. There is nothing better! I've got to have a lot of bubbles, not bath salts – I can just feel the grains and it makes me feel like the water is dirty. Lots of candles. I like to have my hair up, out of my face, because I get very hot and bothered.”
