Tana Mongeau is melting the ice this winter in her swimsuit. The influencer shows off her famous figure in one of her latest social media posts, wearing a swimsuit out in the snow while vacationing in Park City, Utah. She captioned the Instagram photo, “apparently a hoe does in fact get cold.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Tana Mongeau 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 Plays Tennis

One way that Tana stays in shape is playing tennis, which blends together cardio and aerobic exercise, as there is a lot of running around, and hand-eye coordination, explains ACE Fitness. "While tennis provides numerous health benefits—improved aerobic fitness and anaerobic endurance, muscular fitness (grip strength and endurance), flexibility, multiple skill parameters (balance, speed, agility and quickness), reactivity, and power—it also is psychologically demanding," they say.

2. She Takes Baths

Tana takes baths to relax. How can a hot soak do your body and mind good? They have been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.

3. She Goes for Walks

Tana also takes walks, which can be a game changer in terms of exercise, 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 led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace

4. She Drinks Coffee

Tana regular shares photos of herself drinking coffee, which is great for your health, per science. In fact, a new 2022 study published in European Journal of Preventive Cardiology found that 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. Researchers found “significant reductions” in the risk for coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure and stroke for all three types of coffee.

5. She Cheats

Tana eats healthy most of the time, but indulges on occasion. A few of her favorites? Fried chicken, pizza, potato chips, and cotton candy. "Besides provoking inflammation, fried foods are often also high in sodium as well as harmful saturated fats. If you choose to indulge in them, do it sparingly. And avoid foods fried in animal fats; instead, choose foods fried in vegetable oils," says Harvard Health.

Renaud posts a lot of photos and reels on Instagram of herself taking an ice bath outside. She posted this reel of herself in the ice bath, with “La Vie En Rose” as the background music, and with the caption, “On ice life is tastier.” “Cold water immersion involves people immersing themselves in water at temperatures of less than 15°C to manage muscle soreness after exercise and speed up recovery time. There is some evidence to show that cold-water immersion reduces muscle soreness at 24-72 hours after exercise compared with ‘passive’ treatment, or rest,” says the Mayo Clinic.

Nicole Scherzinger seems fearless. So it was no surprise to see her sitting, Zen-like, in freezing cold water, in an outdoor tub from Cold Plunge. “3°C 39°F, 6 minute cold plunge. You have to breath through to break through,” she captioned it, adding a fist emoji. “Let’s get it. @the.coldplunge #manamonday.” The song “Who I Am” by LATASHÁ played with the video. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 7 ways Nicole Scherzinger 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 Takes a Cold Plunge

“Cold water immersion is an ancient practice that has roots in many different cultures, particularly those in high latitudes. Scandinavians have long lauded the post-sauna cold dip as a way to rinse off toxins, jump-start blood flow, and release endorphins. Even Hippocrates and Thomas Jefferson avowed the benefits of soaking in cold water,” reports Discover Magazine. “Swimming or submerging in cold water has gained popularity with the mainstream as a way to boost immune systems, build resilience to stress, and treat inflammation — especially during the pandemic as people search for simple, close-to-home ways to improve their wellbeing.”

2. She Does Yoga

“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,” says Johns Hopkins. “Try Downward Dog Pose: Get on all fours, then tuck your toes under and bring your sitting bones up, so that you make a triangle shape. Keep a slight bend in your knees, while lengthening your spine and tailbone.”

3. She Drinks Cold-Pressed Green Juice

FOX Summer TCA 2019 All-Star Party - ArrivalsGregg DeGuire/FilmMagic

A green juice can be a refreshing way to start the day, as can a green smoothie. Add some flaxseeds. “High in omega-3 fats, flaxseeds are an indispensable source of plant-based fatty acids necessary for those who are vegetarian or don't particularly enjoy eating fish. They also contain very high levels of lignans, which are plant-based compounds showing amazing health benefits in cancer prevention and hormone balance,” says our sister site Eat This, Not That!

4. She Drinks Tea

Nicole has Japanese tea, served hot, for her breakfast. “Whether you drink black, oolong or green tea, they’re all produced from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis bush. Tea leaves from C. sinensis are loaded with flavonoids and other polyphenols, which work as antioxidants,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Some evidence suggests drinking black tea may lower the risk of heart attack and atherosclerosis and reduce kidney stone risk in women. Drinking green or black tea may reduce the risk of developing several cancers, including bladder, esophageal and pancreatic cancers. Drinking black, oolong or green tea appears to lower the risk of ovarian cancer.”

5. She Runs

“When you start out on your run, your body goes through a transition: Your breathing may become heavy, and you might notice your pulse quicken as the heart pumps harder to move oxygenated blood to your muscles and brain,” says Johns Hopkins. “As you hit your stride, your body releases hormones called endorphins. Popular culture identifies these as the chemicals behind ‘runner’s high,’ a short-lasting, deeply euphoric state following intense exercise. Surveys have revealed runner’s high to be rather rare, however, with a majority of athletes never experiencing it.”

6. She Doesn’t Deprive Herself

“I don’t deprive myself of anything,” Nicole has said, according to People. “I have everything in moderation.” One catch though: “When I’m really watching my weight, I refrain from eating late at night,” she says.

7. She Loves the Beach

Nicole shares photos from the beach quite a bit, including just last week. “Mentally I’m here. Physically I’m at home, cleaning my oven,” she captioned the recent Instagram post.

1. She Gained Weight on A Place in the Sun

Amanda explained to Daily Mail that she packed on the pounds after becoming host of the popular real estate show. "I weigh around 10st 7lb. Last year I was 11st 7st, which was the heaviest I've ever been,” she said. "I put on weight while filming A Place In The Sun in Europe. We'd go out boozing, and I was eating baguettes for lunch, followed by stodgy dinners."

2. She Started Working Out

She opted to commit to healthy living. "Since then, my weight has slowly returned to normal,” she said. "I eat healthily and go to the gym four times a week." But it wasn’t easy. "I hate celebs who say they’re naturally skinny – I worked my butt off to look like this!" She added that she "isn't one of those women who can get up at 5am to go to the gym".

3. She Eats Healthy

As for diet, she maintains that it’s all about eating less. “One day I’m going to write a book about how to [lose weight]. It will be called Eat Less; Move More. It’s not rocket science,” she joked. "My take on it is that it’s about choices and trying to use good sense." When it comes to cravings she's "pretty normal" and struggles with snacking. "I have to stop myself eating the leftover fish fingers at teatime. I think I’m pretty normal in that respect!"

4. She Hikes

Amanda also stays in shape by hiking. “I will never ever tire of this place. A good old lung buster of a walk to get here then you’re rewarded with this. It’s heavenly. Next time I’m bringing a flask and a hunk of fruit cake… care to share your hidden gems?” she captioned a post from a recent hike.

5. She Reads

One way Amanda relaxes is by picking up a book and reading. In this post, she enjoys a quiet moment while on vacation, explaining that she struggled to get into holiday mode. “So this morning I woke up and thought ‘Sod it’ I cannot be everything to everyone. I need a bit of me in there somewhere. So here I am. Rose in hand, diving into the most brilliant book (have any of you read it?) and I’m just letting go. It’s taken me a few days but I think I’m finally there…. I also want you all to realise that despite the Insta perfect pictures, shit hits my fan too,” she wrote.

Rebeca Andrade is an Olympic gymnast. She is the most decorated Olympic athlete from Brazil, having won two gold medals, three silvers, and a bronze. Andrade recently shared some highlights of her native Brazil on Instagram. In some of them, she posed in a swimsuit while wading. Andrade captioned the post, “SC-&-RS🏕️🌅❤️ Being free is a paradox. It's committing to the life you want, without running away from the work that it entails. It's building freedom every day, with conscious choices and, mainly, with the acceptance that freedom is not the absence of limits, but the autonomy to know which ones are worth it and which ones are not. Being free is being willing to carry the weight of your own life and still find it funny.”

She Swims

In her Instagram post, Andrade is seen swimming. The Cleveland Clinic says that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming takes much less of a toll on your body than, say, running or riding a bike. That’s because exercising in water lessens the impact of your body weight on your joints.”

She Does Gymnastics

Gymnastics is the main way Andrade stays in shape. British Gymnastics states that the sport has a lot of benefits. “When you take part in gymnastics, or any sport for that matter, your body releases chemicals called endorphins. These also help to trigger a positive feeling in the body which can have a positive impact on your happiness and mental wellbeing. This can help to combat feelings of anxiety and depression.”

She Prioritizes Safety

Andrade talked about her training approach in an interview with the Olympics website. She says that she and her coach prioritize her safety, and that she will skip floor sessions if she isn’t able to do it. "I talk a lot with my coach and we trust in each other. We always try to be really safe, and do floor in the correct moments. He believes in me. I'm never going to lie to not do it. So, when I really tell him that I can't do it, it's because I cannot and he always respects that.”

She Sets Goals

In her Olympics website interview, Andrade talked about her commitment and goal setting. Specifically, she talked about her goal to make the Olympic team. “The other [goal], which is the main one, is for us to qualify as a team,” Andrade said. “I think it will be very important for me, for my team, and the focus is on that, whatever happens there, the result is a consequence of our work, of our commitment. But I really want to be there with my team and be happy and healthy.”

She Cooks

Andrade makes sure to eat healthy. She also likes to cook a lot of her own meals. She shared some of her favorite things to make in an interview with NPR. “There was one that was with potatoes and cheese, chicken. There’s cake. There’s cookies. A lot of things.”

Brandi Glanville has never been one to hold back, whether on reality TV or her unfiltered podcast. Best known for her time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the US and UK versions of Celebrity Big Brother, and The Traitors, Glanville always speaks her mind. Her podcast, Brandi Glanville Unfiltered, recently stirred up some drama when she called out Real Housewives stars for struggling on The Traitors and suggested the show stop casting them. Many fans saw this as subtle shade toward Phaedra Parks, who excelled in the previous season.

Beyond the headlines, Glanville has shared glimpses into her personal wellness routine, from skincare secrets to unconventional self-care methods. Here’s a look at how she stays feeling and looking her best.

She Uses Eye Patches

One thing that Glanville does to take care of her skin is use under-eye patches. In this Instagram post, she revealed the brand she used on Celebrity Big Brother. Glanville captioned it, “One of the #1 questions we get from fans since leaving #bigbrother is what brand of under eye patches were we wearing constantly on the show...The answer is @peterthomasrothofficial!! They are amaze! #ThanksMarissa 💋 (Blogging about all the products, will be posting on @bbeautyunfltrd soon).”

She Walks

Glanville likes to walk her dogs to keep herself in shape. She shared this video on Instagram of herself and her pup walking in Los Angeles. Glanville captioned the post, “On our way to do some podcasting.” Harvard Health says that walking is very beneficial. “Walking can help protect you during cold and flu season. A study of over 1,000 men and women found that those who walked at least 20 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week, had 43% fewer sick days than those who exercised once a week or less. And if they did get sick, it was for a shorter duration, and their symptoms were milder.”

She Has A Dog

As you can see from the previous Instagram post, Glanville has pet dogs. And according to Harvard Health, this can be beneficial. “A growing body of solid research shows that owning a dog can: provide companionship, help you be more active, make kids calmer, more secure, and more responsible, improve the lives of older individuals, help you be calmer, more mindful, and more present in your life, make you more social and less isolated, ease stress.”

She Worked With A Breath Coach

Glanville revealed to Us Weekly that she works with a breath coach to help with her mental health. “I’m still doing cosmetic stuff, but at the same time trying to fix myself. I eat better and breathe and actually exercise. I’m getting there. I just started with this journey, but I can actually do things. My body can do things now that I couldn’t do five years ago.”

She Uses CellSound

Glanville revealed to People that she used the CellSound treatment on her stomach. "I mean, to be honest, I haven't worn a crop top in years, and I literally feel comfortable going out in a crop top, which is so bizarre," she says. "Not that I feel like everyone should do that, but I can go work out with a crop top on and not feel like I have my mommy stomach and I shouldn't sit down. So it's definitely empowered me in that aspect."

Kat McNamara is a successful actress. She is known for her role in fantasy and superhero projects like Shadowhunters, Girl vs. Monster, and Arrow. McNamara just shared her fitness challenge for the year on Instagram. In a recent video, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. McNamara received a lot of praise in the comments. She captioned the post, “Switching it up!💥New year, new workout adventure! Thanks @laurajquinn for once again putting me through my paces! 🤣 We’ve come a long way from ballet to @alo! 🩰”

She Does Pilates

McNamara is seen doing Pilates in her Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “The benefits of Pilates are both therapeutic and preventive. The practice may help you recover from an existing injury or manage a chronic musculoskeletal issue. It may also help you establish a healthy baseline, so that when those injuries or issues arise, you’re able to bounce back faster.”

She Boxes

McNamara shared some of the things she did to stay in shape for Shadowhunters in an interview with Women’s Health. One thing she did was box. “It builds the shape of muscles I needed to look like a fighter, and it's just plain fun," she says.” Boxing has a lot of health benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “Regular physical activity, including boxing, can lower your blood pressure, your cholesterol and your risk of heart disease.”

She Does Leg Workouts

McNamara tells Women’s Health that she doesn’t skip leg day. "I know most people hate leg day, but I kinda love it. It's what makes me feel strongest." Piedmont says that leg workouts are extremely important. “Having strong glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings and calf muscles gives your body a strong foundation and can: Tone your lower body muscles. Boost your metabolism as you increase muscle mass. Give you a higher calorie burn as you train larger muscle groups. Improve your balance.”

She Does HIIT

While on Shadowhunters, McNamara did a lot of HIIT. "In order to do the fight scenes, I needed a lot of upper body strength because I would be holding weapons all day," she says to Women’s Health. "High intensity interval training turned out to be the perfect thing for me. I was able to keep up my cardio stamina and build upon that so I could do the fight scenes, which are basically just sprints."

She Consistent

McNamara tells Women’s Health that she makes sure to stay consistent with her workouts. “There were days when I was tired. There were days when the last thing I wanted to do was pick up a weight...but I just had to physically get myself there—to take a deep breath and remember why I was doing it and why I was there. I think that can go for any kind of physical goal that someone has—half the battle is the mental battle.”
