Kasaei talked about the journey to creating her company to Heatworld. She says that she was inspired to launch this brand to help people embrace their natural hair. Kasaei says that she used to not like herself, and that she has started to change her approach. "One of the main reasons I ended up doing this was because of the damage I caused to my own hair. It's so unfortunate because I spent all these years trying to fix something that wasn't broken. I was trying to change my hair all the time, and trying to go with certain fashions and styles when really, I should have just embraced what I had.”

2. She’s All About Self-Care

Kasaei tells Heatworld that she always makes time for herself. "I love a self-care day, I could do them every day. My main things would be starting the day with a dog walk and then put something in the slow cooker... I'm so old! You need homely, good food on a self-care day, I've literally just put some mince and dumplings in mine. Oh and you've got to get the heating on.”

3. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Kasaei revealed some of her favorite skin products to Heatworld. "I'm also all about skincare, skincare is massive now,” she says. “Back in the day, it was all about sunbeds and damaging your skin, we just didn't care. We didn't care about late nights or drinking water but now everyone is obsessed with health. Everyone is going more natural now, so I think good skin care is absolutely key. I'm loving ZO Skin at the moment, I love a face mask as well, I love Clinique or The Body Shop Tea Tree Anti-Imperfection Night Mask (£12).”

4. She Eats Healthy

Kasaei makes sure to eat healthy. She revealed her favorite meals to Closer Online. “Breakfast is two chicken sausages with scrambled or poached eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes and a slice of gluten-free bread. I’m a sucker for a Starbucks sugar-free caramel latte with coconut milk. For lunch, I’ll always have some sort of seafood – maybe prawns. If I’m out, I’ll get a protein box of chicken, broccoli and eggs, or a soup. I’ll usually end up eating dinner late, around 9pm, which isn’t great as it’ll just sit on my stomach. I’ll have fish, roast vegetables and microwaveable rice.”

5. She Swims

One thing Kasaei likes to do to stay in shape is go swimming. She shares a lot of photos on her Instagram of herself spending time by the water. Kasaei shared this photo of herself going for a late-night dip in the pool. She captioned it, “Ur modern geordie Aphrodite.”

Kasaei shared her typical meals with Closer Online. She says that she eats pretty healthy.“Breakfast is two chicken sausages with scrambled or poached eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes and a slice of gluten-free bread. I’m a sucker for a Starbucks sugar-free caramel latte with coconut milk. For lunch, I’ll always have some sort of seafood – maybe prawns. If I’m out, I’ll get a protein box of chicken, broccoli and eggs, or a soup. I’ll usually end up eating dinner late, around 9pm, which isn’t great as it’ll just sit on my stomach. I’ll have fish, roast vegetables and microwaveable rice.”

I use Fat Busters to help me in my workouts and Diet Boost to help me on my diet only days and I take Beauty Booms every day for vitamins and minerals.”

You're working for yourself, there's going to be days where you wake up with not one penny to your name. And there's going to be days where you wake up and you have sales. It's very up and down being self-employed. It's easier to go out there and work for someone else, get your paycheck, go home and have the night off. But it's more empowering having your business. You don't need to rely on anyone else and I just think being the boss is the best feeling in the world. You feel really empowered.”

4. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Kasaei shared her favorite skincare tips with Heatworld. "I'm also all about skincare, skincare is massive now. Back in the day, it was all about sunbeds and damaging your skin, we just didn't care. We didn't care about late nights or drinking water but now everyone is obsessed with health. Everyone is going more natural now, so I think good skin care is absolutely key. I'm loving ZO Skin at the moment, I love a face mask as well, I love Clinique or The Body Shop Tea Tree Anti-Imperfection Night Mask.”

5. She Cooks

Kasaei is an avid chef. She shares a lot of her favorite recipes on Instagram. In this video, she makes roasted red pepper pasta. She captioned the post, “I always get so many DMs on how I have made my meals. So I will try do as many reels as I can for you! Tonight I cudnt be arsed to defrost any chicken so I thought I would make a veggi pasta making my own sauce. Full of all the goods and simple ingredients and WOW this was unbelievably tasty ! With no pasta jars or processed tins!”

1. She Gets Her Vitamin D

“In general, even with fortified foods, diet usually doesn’t provide enough vitamin D. And certain health conditions that affect the gastrointestinal tract may decrease the absorption of vitamin D and predispose to low vitamin D blood levels. You also can get vitamin D through direct exposure to sunlight, although the amount of sun you need to get enough vitamin D can vary greatly,” says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Loves to Swim

Sarah once swam underwater with a sea creature. “Happy world oceans day. ❤️ No better feeling than exploring the world under the surface. Let’s keep working toward a better future for our planets oceans....Every little bit helps if everyone took and active roll it would make the world of difference. The calmness, clarity and happiness while being underwater is like being in another universe. Its unreal. 🌊🖤,” she captioned it.

3. She Love Dogs

Sarah loves dogs. “My fur baby ❤️ whenever Noah sees a dog he chases it around until he can touch it and doesn’t want to let go 🤣 I think he definitely loves animals as much as his mum.” Dogs have been shown to have big benefits to mental wellness.

4. She Surfs

“To be competitive, surfers must be physically well-rounded and have both endurance (paddling and duck diving) and explosive power (popping up, big bottom turns and explosive turns and airs off the top lip of the wave). Balance is of paramount importance too, as is symmetry between lower- and upper-body strength,” says ACE Fitness.

5. She Loves to Travel

Sarah has hit such far flung locations as Stonehenge and tropical paradises. “Taking a holiday can result in many physical and mental health benefits. In fact, some of these benefits have been shown to persist months after we have returned to work. A study of over 3,000 Canadian workers found that taking more paid vacation days was positively associated with both overall health and life satisfaction,” says one study.

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.

She Boxes

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

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.”
