Vietnam star Thùy Anh is ready to interact more with her fans after taking a little break from social media. Anh shared pictures of herself relaxing on the beach in a pink and yellow bathing suit, her hair up in a bun. “I have to play Instagram again. I’ve neglected it for so long,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Anh 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. Jump Rope

Anh jumps rope as part of her exercise routine. “Jumping rope can help improve your cognitive function,” says Pete McCall, MS, CSCS. “This is because jumping rope involves learning new motor patterns, which improves the nervous system communication between your brain, wrists and lower leg muscles. This, in turn, helps to improve your overall cognitive function, which is an important benefit as we age.”

2. Running With Her Dogs

Anh loves running outside with her two pups. “No matter your age, weight or athletic ability, aerobic activity is good for you,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Aerobic activity has many health benefits. As your body adapts to regular aerobic exercise, you'll get stronger and fitter.”

3. Shrimp and Avocado

Anh loves shrimp and avocado as a healthy yet delicious meal. Shellfish offer many health benefits, experts say. “These foods tend to be low in mercury, low in fat, and low in cholesterol,” according to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. “Even shrimp, which was once thought to be high in cholesterol, isn’t out of bounds. It is higher in cholesterol and sodium than other types of shellfish, but it doesn’t have unhealthy amounts.”

4. Coffee Lover

Anh enjoys coffee throughout the day. “Coffee is made from beans, a plant food," says Devon Peart, MHSc, BASc, RD. "Research is showing that the phenolic components in coffee provide health-promoting effects similar to those in vegetables or fruits."

5. Wine Drinker

Anh partakes in the occasional glass of wine, which experts say should be enjoyed in moderation. “Antioxidants in red wine called polyphenols may help protect the lining of blood vessels in the heart,” says the Mayo Clinic. “A polyphenol called resveratrol is one substance in red wine that's received attention for its health benefits.”

Madison Iseman is an actress, best known for her role in the recent Jumanji films. She recently enjoyed a beach day with her boyfriend. Iseman shared photos on Instagram of the couple. She captioned the post, “A lil summer luvin’. POV Liv’s camera.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Madison Iseman stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Wants To Try New Roles

Los,Angeles,,Ca,,-,Nov,14,,2022:,Madison,Iseman,ArrivesShutterstock

Iseman doesn’t want to be penciled into a box. She opened up about her career and what roles she went after in an interview with Grumpy Magazine. “After Jumanji, I purposely tried to find roles that were very different. I wanted to do so many different things — to cut my hair, to dye it brown — because the number one thing people knew me from was the blond bimbo who’s taking selfies in her room [and] I was tired of playing that. I love Bethany and I would do her a million times again, but I don’t want to play a million different versions of Bethany.”

2. She Swims

Iseman loves to swim to stay in shape. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself in the water. Iseman shared these photos of herself and friends in the ocean. Better Health states that swimming is a great workout. “Swimming is a good all-round activity because it: keeps your heart rate up but takes some of the impact stress off your body. Builds endurance, muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness. Helps you maintain a healthy weight, healthy heart and lungs. Tones muscles and builds strength. Provides an all-over body workout, as nearly all of your muscles are used during swimming.”

3. She Hikes

Iseman likes to hike to keep herself in shape. She shared these photos on Instagram of herself and her friend hiking to a waterfall. Iseman captioned the post, “We went chasing waterfalls.” The National Park Services state, “Hiking is one of the best ways to get exercise. No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between.”

4. She Has Abs

Los,Angeles,-,Mar,14:,Madison,Iseman,At,The,Shazam!Shutterstock

A strong core, marked by well-defined abdominal muscles or "abs", offers more than just aesthetic appeal. Abs play a pivotal role in overall body functionality. They stabilize the spine, improve posture, and reduce the risk of back injuries. Engaging and strengthening these muscles can aid in efficient movement patterns, making daily tasks easier and athletic endeavors more effective. Moreover, a strong core enhances balance and stability, reducing the potential for falls. Furthermore, exercises targeting the abs can boost metabolic rates, aiding in weight management. In summary, toned abs signify a robust core foundation, crucial for optimal physical health and functionality.

5. She Likes the Sun

Sunshine plays a crucial role in our well-being. The most recognized benefit is its ability to stimulate the skin to produce vitamin D, essential for bone health, immune function, and mood regulation. Natural sunlight can also enhance mood, alleviate depression, and regulate our internal body clock, supporting a healthy sleep-wake cycle. While these benefits are compelling, it's vital to enjoy sunshine responsibly. Overexposure can lead to sunburn, premature skin aging, and increased risk of skin cancers. To maximize benefits and minimize risks, wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, don protective clothing, and limit direct sun exposure during peak hours, typically between 10 am and 4 pm.

A,Beautiful,Woman,Wearing,A,White,Towel,Takes,A,Sauna:Shutterstock

“I'm going to do a little sauna before I'm going to get ready because this is what I like to do before my makeup and just relax my body. It's good for everything,” she told Coveteur. “I do it every day because my fiance, he's an athlete and he told me that it's good for the skin, it's good for stress, it's good for sleep, and it's like many benefits that you can take out of it. He does the ice. I do the hot tub because I'm Brazilian and I'm always cold.”

2. She Does a Steam Post-Show

If I'm traveling, I do FaceTiming with my trainer” and do exercises like hop rolls and boxing moves.

4. She is Motivated By Her Son

“I have a son, so he pretty much motivates me when I don't have energy or when I don't look good.

He motivate me pretty much,” she told Hollywood Insider.

5. She Unwinds

My Brazilian gang and I, we always go to this spot that’s calledFat Cat. That's where I learned how to play pool,” she told Coveteur.

1. She Has Learned to Love Herself

“HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY ✨ Today is a day where we can celebrate us. I have so many women in my life who inspire me every day and I wanted to give a little something today that can hopefully inspire one of you. Loving our imperfections can be difficult, but when you learn to embrace them and realise that our imperfections don’t define us, they are just a part of us alongside everything else that creates you as a person. None of us are the same, and that’s a special thing. We are one of a kind 🤍 This picture shows me at my most vulnerable… but I’m learning to love myself, imperfections and all. And so should you,” she wrote once.

2. She Was Once “Unhealthily Skinny”

"I went from a size 10 to a six, and it’s the smallest I’ve ever been as a young adult. Because of my height, this made me look unhealthily skinny, of which I was (not eating barely anything, feeling ill all the time, tired, dizzy) and I remember looking at myself, I’d lost my boobs and my bum and those curves I once had and I missed them,” she wrote on Instagram. "The point of this [is], since coming out of Love Island, I found my love for food again and yes I’m getting back to my usual size."

3. She Likes a Nice Bath

“Drowning my sorrows in the bath because my Met Gala invite got lost 💔…,” she captioned one recent photo. Consider adding Epsom salt. “Pour about 300 grams (1.25 cups) of Epsom salt into a clean bathtub as it fills with hot water. (Avoid using Epsom salt in a tub with jets, a hot tub or a whirlpool bath unless the manufacturer says it’s OK.),” says the Cleveland Clinic.

4. This is Her Skin Icon

"At the moment the make-up I use does change fairly often, not necessarily my staples like concealer and foundation, but I do switch up the bronzers, blushers and mascara that I use,” she has said. Her icon? "Meghan Markle, her skin is absolutely flawless – her make-up always looks lovely as her make-up always looks lovely and natural."

5. She Has Had Acne

“I suffered from acne about a year and a half ago and then I started to work with a skin aesthetician, who helped me to find my skincare routine and helped me to start dealing with the breakouts. Now that my acne has gone, we are on more of a journey to find the right products; doing treatments like microneedling once a month to deal with the scarring. I am so happy with the outcome because the difference from what it was to now is just incredible. I genuinely used to think there was never going to be a time when I could get rid of the acne and I think when you are suffering you think it’s going to be with you forever. Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t an overnight process – it took me a year and a half to be acne free, but through a good skincare routine and using the right products it can be combated. My skin aesthetician advised me that the products you use to treat acne don’t start working for 4-6 months, so it took six months before I started to see a difference. The secret to good skin is also about good lifestyle, it’s all about looking after the inside to make your skin glow,” she told Hello.

In her latest Instagram post, Sharvari showcased her grit with a hardcore beach workout, flipping a massive tire in the sand. Dressed in a sleek black workout set, she didn’t just make the workout look effortless—she made it look empowering. Adding a playful pun to her caption, she wrote, “Never tyre’d of a good beach workout.”
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. Not to mention, it’s a fantastic way to burn calories.”

She Boxes

Another thing that Sharvari does to keep herself in shape is box. She first picked this up when training for the film, Vedaa. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself punching a bag. Sharvari captioned the post, “BEAST MODE on for Vedaa! ⚠️☠️🥊 Took up boxing to become Vedaa... Now I am ready to pack a punch or be strong enough to take a brutal beating 💪#Vedaa coming to a theatre near you on August 15th.”

She Runs

Sharvari likes to run to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself running on the beach. She captioned the post, “Decided to seas the day!” Better Health says that running is very beneficial. “Regular running or jogging offers many 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.”
