Sofia Richie, the model and social media star, has been modeling since a young age, so she knows how to strike a pose. Now 23, she posted a photo of herself in a green swimsuit with a “Caribbean curl.” No wonder Vanessa Hudgens, Paris Hilton, Rita Ora and Katy Perry are followers. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Sofia Richie 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 Hardcore Workouts

“PAIN.” That was the caption of one of Richie’s workouts. She’s often seen at the Dogpound, the personal training gym that’s also home to Vanessa Hudgens and Hailey Bieber, among other celebs. Trainer Kevin Mejia has shared footage of her working hard; in one video, she’s got a leg band and doing extensions, holding her core tight. “LOVE THE PROCESS JUST AS MUCH YOU LOVE THE PRIZE,” Mejia has captioned some of his own workouts. “WILL NOT LOSE… PUT SOMETHIN ON IT.”

2. She Loves to Swim

Richie frequently posts photos in a bathing suit, often from “paradise.” Swimming can help everything from your mood to your core to tamping down dementia. In one study, “Preliminary evidence suggests that a dementia-specific, aquatic exercise intervention reduces BPSD and improves psychological well-being in people with moderate to severe dementia. With further testing, this innovative intervention may prove effective in addressing some of the most challenging aspects of dementia care.”

3. She Has a Positive Outlook

"I always live by having fun and never taking things too seriously," she told Grazia. "I know that everyone has this perfect image that they have to uphold, but I think that you'll live a happier life if you just smile more and have fun." “Indeed, some studies show that personality traits such as optimism and pessimism can affect many areas of your health and well-being. The positive thinking that usually comes with optimism is a key part of effective stress management. And effective stress management is associated with many health benefits. If you tend to be pessimistic, don't despair — you can learn positive thinking skills,” says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Has Faced Down Panic Attacks

Richie told Teen Vogue she suffered from panic attacks. “I would convince myself that I was panicking or that I wasn’t comfortable, and once I realized that I was doing that to myself and nothing was actually wrong with me, I was totally fine,” she said.

5. She Meditates

If ever panicky, Richie meditates. “I know how to be like, 'Calm down, you’re here. There’s nothing to panic about,'” she told Teen Vogue. “Meditation is a simple, quick way to reduce stress that you can do wherever you are. Meditation is considered a type of mind-body complementary medicine. Meditation can produce a deep state of relaxation and a tranquil mind. During meditation, you focus your attention and eliminate the stream of jumbled thoughts that may be crowding your mind and causing stress. This process may result in enhanced physical and emotional well-being,” says the Mayo Clinic.

Richie is a prolific baker, and loves to make sugar cookies and apple crumble. “Baking is an opportunity to clear our heads and de-stress,” says Pamela Honsberger, MD. “When you focus your attention on an activity like baking, you’re more present in the moment and less focused on stressors of the past or future.”

2. She Enjoys Pilates

Richie frequently does Pilates workouts on a Reformer machine. “'It's brilliant for everyone as it's an inclusive workout method,” says James Shaw, Pilates instructor at Frame. “Whether you’re a pro athlete, office worker or new to working out, reformer pilates will help develop your whole body.”

3. She Hits the Treadmill

Richie likes using a treadmill for cardio workouts. “Exercise has a dramatic antidepressive effect,” says David J. Linden, PhD. “It blunts the brain’s response to physical and emotional stress. “Voluntary exercise is the single best thing one can do to slow the cognitive decline that accompanies normal aging.”

4. She Loves Horseback Riding

Richie has been horseback riding since she was a little girl, and still enjoys the exercise. “Riding a horse for 45 minutes at a walk, trot and canter can burn up to 200 calories,” says Dr. Dennis Sigler, a Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service horse specialist and professor in the department of animal science at Texas A&M University in College Station. “If you do something a bit more strenuous such as cutting or reining, that can come out to nearly seven calories per minute for the entire length of the riding period.”

5. She Has Eggs For Breakfast

Richie enjoys cooking eggs for a healthy, protein-rich breakfast. “Looking at the nutritional breakdown, one egg contains roughly 75 calories, 5 grams of fat, 6 grams of protein, 0 carbohydrates, 67 milligrams of potassium, 70 grams of sodium and 210 milligrams of cholesterol,” says Anne Harguth, RDN. “Eggs are also a great source of vitamins A, D and B12, as well as choline, which is a nutrient that's essential in many steps of metabolism. Except for its cholesterol content, one egg is a healthy option for breakfast lunch or dinner.”

Sofia-RichieSofia Richie/Instagram

Sofia is a big fan of meditation. "I know how to be like, 'Calm down, you're here. There's nothing to panic about,'" she told Teen Vogue about the importance of a practice. "Meditation is a simple, quick way to reduce stress that you can do wherever you are. Meditation is considered a type of mind-body complementary medicine. Meditation can produce a deep state of relaxation and a tranquil mind. During meditation, you focus your attention and eliminate the stream of jumbled thoughts that may be crowding your mind and causing stress. This process may result in enhanced physical and emotional well-being," says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Is Religious

Sofia’s faith is rooted in her family. She maintains that two years of Christian high school helped her discover god. “My family wanted church to be a place where we all went together. My dad was always traveling and my mom was always working. School is where I did Bible classes and studied God,” she told Complex. She refers to faith as her “main ground” and “the most interesting thing in my life.” She also tries to surround herself with people who have the same beliefs. “One of the key factors of life is love, and the key factor of God is love, so having that understanding is really important in a relationship,” she explains. “Having someone that genuinely respects you and understands your life and is open to hearing about your life is really cool. Having someone to just open up to and talk to when shit is bad and when shit is great.”

3. She Prioritizes Happiness

Sofia focuses on filling her life with fun and happy things. “I always live by having fun and never taking things too seriously. I know that everyone has this perfect image that they have to uphold, but I think that you’ll live a happier life if you just smile more and have fun,” she told Grazia.

4. She Sweats

"I think it really just comes from within and as long as you’re comfortable and happy with who you are, your confidence will shine through," she added about confidence.

6. She Does Pilates

1. She Does Lagree Fitness

She’s been doing Lagree Fitness for almost a decade. The workout is “a low-impact, high-intensity method that tightens and tones in as little as 20-minutes a session.” “I really love the workouts since then, because I have bad knees. I can’t do crazy things. And this is one of the workouts that I feel that I can finish and do most of the things without even thinking about my knees. For me, that's what hooked me to this workout,” she has said. “Because in one hour you feel like you do everything good. Like you feel like you completed one workout, then I'm done for the day. I don't have to think anymore about exercise. And actually, growing up in Latin America, there was not that culture. Right. You know, 30 something years ago.” She added: “It's not a pleasure to work out. So I do it because also because of my job and I'm in a place in my career where I need to have energy and look good and fitting into those tiny little dresses.”

2. Lagree Does Not Bore Her

As for Lagree: “It's great because… you don't get bored because there's so many exercises and… time flies. And I'm very glad that I found this because it's one of the few things that I can finish. I always explain it as the ‘necessary torture.’ Like, you know, like at the beginning they will tell me an exercise. I'm like, no, I can't do this. And I would be like, no, it's horrible. It's horrible. Now. I'm like, I, I get it. I can do it.”

3. She Opens Her Mouth Wide When Eating on Purpose

On Ellen, she host showed photos of Vergara eating with her mouth open very wide. “Well, first of all, I didn't know I was doing that. I didn't know I had a problem until people started posting pictures of me, from paparazzi, of me eating. And then I started to realize it's like, what is wrong with me? Well, but you know, you have to give it to me that I'm always long hours on a set. You get bored, you get, you know, a little anxious and what else are you going to do? right. But I have a technique that my makeup artist appreciates because you open the mouth really wide and you don't mess up your lipstick.”

4. She Tries to Work Out Three Times a Week

“I try to have a routine, but sometimes it's hard because of the kind of job that I have,” she has said. “For example, I woke up today at three in the morning. So today's not gonna be a workout day for me, no matter what, I know that I'm not gonna have the energy at the end of the day. So I try to work out according to my schedule, my shooting schedule. If I'm traveling, I usually don't work out. But I try to squeeze in at least three times a week working out. I try to sleep well. And because, I mean, I think it's important when you do that kind of job that I do to sleep well.”

5. She Craves sweets

“I have never been into crazy diets. So I usually try to eat healthy of course, because I love vegetables and I love healthy food and juices, so I'm pretty good with that. My problem always has been my obsession with sweets and that's why I'm here today because it's one of my biggest secrets is that I've always been trying to figure out a way to get away with trying to eat something sweet after a meal,” she said about Skinny Cow.

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.

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.

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.”
