1. She Has Learned to Put Herself First

Biles memorably put her mind/body connection before her work, bowing out of certain competitions to focus on her mental health. “I feel like I learned the most about myself during Tokyo,” Biles told USA TODAY Sports. “How courageous, how brave I am. Because I always like to fake bravery. But I really think that solidified me being brave, speaking up for myself and just putting myself first.” She added: “A lot of things that I would have never experienced or believed in as much … if that experience didn't happen.”

2. She Does Not Track Her Eating

When it comes to dieting or calorie counting: "I do not track anything," she tells Women's Health. "I eat what I feel good with and try not to overeat or stuff myself because I'm always at the gym." She added: "For gymnasts, in particular, [tracking] can lead to health problems and eating issues, so I just eat what I know I can and should."

3. She Eats Oatmeal

"I wake up so early before practice, which is at seven, so sometimes I'll grab a quick bite and sometimes I won't," she told Women’s Health. If she does, she’ll sometimes grab an oatmeal. “Oatmeal contains soluble fiber, which reduces your low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, the ‘bad’ cholesterol. Soluble fiber is also found in such foods as kidney beans, Brussels sprouts, apples and pears,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Soluble fiber can reduce the absorption of cholesterol into your bloodstream. Five to 10 grams or more of soluble fiber a day decreases your LDL cholesterol. One serving of a breakfast cereal with oatmeal or oat bran provides 3 to 4 grams of fiber. If you add fruit, such as a banana or berries, you'll get even more fiber.”

4. She’s Often at the Gym

“Regular exercise can help you control your weight, reduce your risk of heart disease and certain cancers, and strengthen your bones and muscles. But if you haven't exercised for some time and you have health concerns, you may want to talk to your doctor before starting a new fitness routine,” says the Mayo Clinic. “When you're designing your personal fitness program, consider your fitness goals. Think about your fitness likes and dislikes, and note your personal barriers to fitness. Then consider practical strategies for keeping your fitness program on track.”

5. She Does Endurance Training

“Endurance exercise is one of the four types of exercise along with strength, balance and flexibility,” says the American Heart Association. “They don’t all need to be done every day, but variety helps keep the body fit and healthy, and makes exercise interesting.…Also called aerobic exercise, endurance exercise includes activities that increase your breathing and heart rate such as walking, jogging, swimming, biking and jumping rope.”

1. She’s Prioritizing Her Wellness

In 2021, Biles told People that the pandemic allowed her to reassess her life. Specifically, she started to make her wellness a priority. "This past year has really been about taking a pause and trying to focus on all the good things in life. I've slowed down a bit and been able to take more time for overall wellness.” To cope during these tough times, "Regular physical activity and exercise can help reduce anxiety and improve mood. Find an activity that includes movement, such as dance or exercise apps. Get outside, such as a nature trail or your own backyard," says the Mayo Clinic. "Choose a well-balanced diet. Avoid loading up on junk food and refined sugar. Limit caffeine as it can aggravate stress, anxiety and sleep problems."

1. She Prioritizes Her Mental Health

Simone puts her mental health before anything else. “As an athlete, you need to protect your mind and your body, rather just go out there and do what the world wants us to do and potentially injuring yourself. I had to put myself above all else,” she told Good Housekeeping in September 2022 about her decision to withdraw from the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games. “I learned that it’s okay not to be okay. If you don’t do what is right for you, then you're not going to enjoy your sport, and you're not going to succeed as much as you want to in whatever arena you’re competing in.” She added that she has no regrets about the decision. “I’m happy that I prioritized my mental well-being.”

2. Her Diet Is Healthy

Simone maintains a healthy diet that keeps her fueled for her intense workouts. For breakfast she might eat Kellogg's Red Berries or egg whites. Lunch, “is either chicken or fish so I get the protein,” she told Women’s Health. Then she grabs a “quick snack” before another workout. “Pre-workout I love drinking Core Power; it's a recovery drink. And then a banana and peanut butter because bananas have potassium, which helps with muscle cramps.” “And then,” for dinner, “I like having a good fish, like salmon, and rice and carrots.”

3. She Swims and Cycles

Simone also does cross training workouts. “We swam twice a week—almost a mile! I swore I was going to drown, it was so hard, and then we would run. And the year before that we would bike 10 miles outside once a week. If we didn't bike, we would run a mile before practice, and as soon as we finished the mile we'd have to go inside and do a beam routine. My legs were absolute jello. But it got easier because the cross-training helped. This year we haven't done [cross-training] because we're just calming it down,” she told Women’s Health.

4. She Also Does Strength Training

Simone also does a lot of strength training. “I like doing legs because those exercises come pretty easily to me. I have good, powerful legs, so I can do conditioning and they won't be too sore. But stomach conditioning, I don't like it at all! It's my least favorite. I like laughing better for an ab workout than actually doing abs!” she told Women’s Health.

5. She Makes Sure to Stretch

Simone emphasizes the importance of stretching. “We have a routine that includes running and then a stretch for every part of our body. So we'll stretch before practice, but especially afterwards, because then you're tense and you need to stretch those muscles down. It's very important to keep your body flexible so that you don't get injured,” she told Women’s Health. “My favorite stretch is splits because not a lot of people can do them. And over-splits is when you put your leg up on a mat so it's higher—and it just looks cooler!”

Singer Sabrina Salerno. best known as Sabrina, the Italian singer, is enjoying time in the sun. And she made sure to look stunning while doing so.

1. She’s A Dancer

Salerno, being a singer, has to learn choreography for her live performances and videos. She also competed on a reality dance competition series, based on Dancing With The Stars, where she learned even more new dances and dance styles. She posted several videos from the competition on her Instagram. Dancing isn’t just a way to stay in shape, it is also a way to help you remember things, as you need to remember the steps and counts when you learn a number.

2. She Swims

Salerno is a big fan of spending time both by and in the water. She has posted several photos of herself by the beach or pool on Instagram. She posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself swimming in a pool, with the caption, “C’era una volta.”

When Salerno goes to the gym, she loves to use the bikes. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself on a stationary bike. She captioned the photo, “How many times have you been told: did you want the bicycle? Pedal !!! I am so many ... it is a pity that some arrive too late, when you no longer want to pedal ... c'est la vie.” “Once you've planned your workout, schedule it. Write your exercise time in your planner, create a calendar entry with an automatic reminder or reserve your spot in the spin class. Consider your workout time to be as important as a work meeting or dental appointment. Once you've allotted the time, you avoid using ‘I don't have time’ as an excuse,” says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Strength Trains

Another activity Salerno likes to do when she’s at the gym is strength training exercises. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself using arm weights at the gym. She captioned the photo, “Mind beats muscles, Lex Luthor.” “For being able to work out wherever you are and being able to do a variety of exercises without needing a lot of equipment and being able to use them no matter what your fitness level, resistance bands are a great piece of equipment to use,” says exercise physiologist Christopher Travers, MS, tells the Cleveland Clinic.

5. She Got A Booster Shot

It is extremely important to get vaccinated, especially with COVID-19 and all its variants out there. Salerno is one of many celebrities who have posted photos on Instagram of themselves getting the vaccine and the booster shots.
