Olympian surfer Carissa Moore is modeling some gorgeous swimwear based on her Hawaiian heritage. Moore, 31, shared a picture of herself posing in a cropped tank top and pink bikini bottoms, looking happy and beautiful. “Flower girls, this one's for you. Explore a world of prints and patterns inspired by Aloha, hand drawn by @alohademele, and brought to you by 5X World Champion Carissa Moore. Link in bio ✨🌸💛🌸✨,” reads the caption on the post. Here’s how Moore learned to love herself and her incredible physique.


1. Daily Routine

Moore’s daily routine depends on surf conditions. “I’m usually in the water from 7:00 to 9:30,” she says. “Then I’ll usually meet my online trainer and we’ll do an hour training session at the park. Then I’ll come home and rest, and then, if the waves are good, I’ll head back to the beach for an afternoon session around 3:30 to 5:30.”

2. Personal Trainer Sessions

Moore works out with a trainer and does Pilates. “I work out with my trainer three times each week, and we do a lot of circuit training,” she says. “I don’t actually use too many weights; it’s mostly body weight. I train to make sure I can get in the water and do what I love every day. I love burpees, skaters and mountain climbers. I do intervals, like 45 seconds on, 15 seconds off. My regimen is always changing, because I get bored if it’s the same workout. Each week I go to Pilates once and I usually go for a run twice.”

3. Advice For Young Girls

Don't,Compare,Yourself,To,OthersShutterstock

Moore has good advice for young girls who might not be confident in their looks. “Between ages 16 and 20, your body goes through so many changes,” she says. “And then at 20, 21, it just kind of settles into itself. There’s something special and unique about you. Don’t try to compare yourself to anyone else. Don’t try to be someone else. I think being healthy and strong is the most beautiful thing.”

4. Everything In Moderation

Moore enjoys a balanced diet. “I like the way that healthy food makes me feel,” she says. “But I do like a nice muffin or some chocolate. It’s about moderation. My nutritionist has helped me find things that are light and also taste good. Growing up in Hawaii, food is such a beautiful social thing. It’s a big part of our culture to enjoy what you’re eating. It’s also a big part of traveling and experiencing a new place. On comp days, bananas, trail mix and GoMacro MacroBars—the banana and almond butter flavor is my favorite—are my go-to meals.”

5. No More Bad Diets

Moore hasn’t always had a healthy relationship with food but is much happier these days. “I don’t feel imprisoned by food anymore,” she says. “It’s all about balance for me, and that’s translated to every part of my life. I enjoy ice cream. I enjoy cookies. And the same goes with surfing: I work really hard, but I also find time to rest and relax. I’m just really comfortable and happy in my own skin at this point.”

Morgan took part in the “My Scar, My Story” campaign on Instagram. She opened up about why she participated in this to Hidden Remote. “I had a C-section 19 months ago now with my son, River. And, because of that, just my body growing and stretching–having a scar from my C-section–I had to look at my body in a whole different way and I really connected with Gold Bond’s campaign of ‘My Scar, My Story’ where it’s encouraging people to share their real skin stories. Embrace their imperfections, embrace their scars.”

2. She Embraces Herself

Morgan tells Hidden Remote that she is all about embracing herself. “After I gave birth, my whole mindset changed into ‘What is my definition of beauty?’ and scars are beautiful. I just really started embracing motherhood and that came with embracing who I am and my body regardless of any imperfections. So that’s why this campaign is super important to me and why I’m hoping it’ll encourage other people to share their scar story and their real skin stories.”

3. She Hikes

Morgan spends a lot of time outside. One thing she likes to do is go hiking. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself hiking. Morgan shared this video of herself and her son hiking in the mountains. She captioned the post, “Happiness. The 90% of my life you don’t see.” Morgan also shared this video of herself hiking through Zion, captioning it, “Highly recommend having a lil adventure out in Zion.”

4. She Swims

Morgan likes to swim to stay in shape. In this set of photos she shared from a vacation on Instagram, she is seen in a pool. Morgan captioned the post, “Paradise is all about perspective, we are always in paradise but there’s something truly magical about grounding/journaling on a white sand beach and releasing whatever no longer serves me into the ocean. 🌊 Forever grateful to be co creating this life. Highly recommend this resort it was stunning and super accommodating if you have lil ones.”

5. She Speaks Out

During the 2020 Black Lives Matter movement, Morgan spoke up about how black people are portrayed in the media, and how black characters are portrayed on sitcoms. She sent out this Tweet saying, "Tired of how black people are portrayed in Media, tired of us being portrayed as thugs, dangerous or angry scary people. Tired of us also being used as side kick non dimensional characters to our white leads. Or only used in the ads for diversity but not actually in the show. It starts with the media."

Denver Broncos cheerleader Berkleigh Wright isn’t ready to say goodbye to summer (or her swimsuits) just yet. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit finalist took some time off from her busy schedule as an account manager and professional NFL cheerleader to get some R&R at the Clayton Members Club & Hotel in Denver. Wright shared pictures of herself posing in a white one-piece swimsuit, with a white shirt and straw hat. “Summer’s not over until Clayton says it’s over ☀️,” she captioned the post. Here’s how she works hard, plays hard, and cheers hard.


1. Look Good, Feel Good

Wright starts the day with a cup of matcha green tea to wake up and hit the ground running. “I’m all about the look good, feel good, work good vibes,” she says. “I always like to wake up and do my full skincare [routine], put on a fresh face and make sure that I’m setting myself up for success and a productive day.”

2. Sports Illustrated Beckons

Wright was a finalist in the Sports Illustrated Swim Search competition (no surprise there!). “I took this leap of faith because I feel that Sports Illustrated [Swimsuit] is a world-class organization that embodies everything I strive to be as a woman,” she says. “It extends beyond beauty: they stand for being a strong individual with depth, brains, kindness and integrity. A brand that celebrates everyone’s differences, exhibiting that our imperfections are what makes us beautiful. SI Swim helped me embrace those ideals in myself, and now I strive to imprint that mindset in others.”

3. Skiing Trips

Like a true Colorado girl, Wright is at home on the slopes. “It’s well documented that skiing and snowboarding benefits cardiovascular health, overall fitness, strength, coordination, balance and more,” says the Canadian Ski Council. “Regardless of your health and fitness goals, strapping on a pair of skis or a snowboard is sure to fulfill some of them. Due to the versatility of skiing and snowboarding, it can encompass the benefits of a cardio workout, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) session, and strength training session, all in one fun activity.”

4. Advice To Younger Self

Self,Love,Tips,List,/,Design,For,Prints,,Posters,,FramesShutterstock

Wright’s advice she would give her younger self is all about self-love and confidence. “Listen to your heart. If something is on it, it is there for a reason. Some things are only meant to be in your life for a reason or a season. Letting them go with grace will make room for what is meant to stay. Find your people and hold them close. Kindness is cool. Your authentic, genuine, weird and quirky self is the MOST beautiful thing you can be.”

5. Role Model

Wright wants to use her platform with the Denver Broncos and Sports Illustrated to be a role model for younger women. “Winning SI Swim Search to me means being a part of something bigger than myself,” she says. “Being a member of the Sports Illustrated family and having this powerful platform would help me further myself as a mentor and reach a wider audience of our youth. A mentor that demonstrates to our younger generation that you are not limited by your external factors, but rather unlimited by the person you can become from the inside out.”

Gymnast Olivia "Livvy" Dunne is channeling that back-to-school feeling in her swimsuit. The LSU and social media superstar just shared a fantastic new image of herself in a black swimsuit prostrated on the back of a boat, with stunning blue waters behind her. “There’s 104 days of summer vacation til school comes along just to end it…” she captioned the picture, quoting “Today Is Gonna Be a Great Day” by the band Bowling for Soup, aka the theme song from the Disney animated series Phineas and Ferb. How does the 20-year-old phenomenon stay in shape? Here’s how.


1. She Dedicated Her Childhood to Training

Despite the photo of Dunne looking like she’s enjoying the dog days of August in some exptiing location, taking in the sun, she has worked incredibly hard her entire life. “I pretty much sacrificed my summers, those pool days, those beach days with their friends. I was in the gym training,” Dunne told the Today Show.

2. She is a Hit on Social Media

Dunne posts photos of herself dancing and sunbathing, which have made her an Internet sensation, both as a talented athlete and as a pin-up queen. “As a woman, you're not responsible for how a man looks at you and object defies you. That's not a woman's responsibility,” Dunne told the Today Show. She did add: “There are some people occasionally that do reach out, and it is a bit concerning….They gave us some new rules for US athletes just to keep us safe, to not go into the stands after meets, and we have a new security person that travels with us.”

3. She Has a Great Support System

“When it comes to what you have on your plate, you've got athletics, you've got class, oh by the way, you have NIL”—that means “name, image, and likeness,” which she can monetize. “How do you go about managing all that?” asked a reporter from On3. “I would say having a good support system is so important,” she answered. “My family, they stand behind me and my mom, she helps me, my sister, she helps put together videos and sends it to the brand while I'm at practice or competing. So she's definitely a huge component in my everyday life and helping me with these brand deals. But having a good support system and compartmentalizing your day so you don't get overwhelmed.”

4. She Swims

Swimming offers a plethora of health benefits for both body and mind. It's a low-impact exercise that enhances cardiovascular fitness, strengthens muscles, and improves flexibility. The buoyancy of water reduces stress on joints, making it suitable for all ages and fitness levels. Regular swimming can aid in weight management, promoting calorie burning and increased metabolism. Moreover, it's an effective full-body workout that engages various muscle groups, enhancing tone and endurance. Beyond physical advantages, swimming also boosts mental well-being through its meditative rhythm and soothing effects. Overall, swimming is a holistic activity that fosters vitality, strength, and a tranquil mind.

5. This is Her Plan to Be Successful After Graduation

“I have one more year of school at LSU and one more year of gymnastics, which is insane to me. So I'm hoping just to have a good last year at LSU. But after school, I would definitely like to have my own brand. Yes, I love working with brands, but I would like to have my own thing, my own product one day. And I'm not sure exactly what that is yet, but I definitely feel like I can do something entrepreneurial, so I would like to have my own product,” she told On3.

For Hewitt, fitness is all about variety. “I try to switch it up a bit,” she told OK! Magazine. “I’ve found that if every week I do something different it tricks my muscles into not getting used to doing any one thing. I’ve been doing pilates, I’ve been doing yoga, I’ve done just plain old walking. I wear 10 pound weights on my ankles while I’m working just so that as I’m moving during the day I’m constantly building muscle. It’s not great for your back but I’m doing it anyway. I do a booty workout thing that I just did for Shape, which was really fun. And I do Zumba. I have DVDs and I dance around like a crazy person in my house.”

She Builds Confidence

Hewitt tells People that she wants to build her confidence up. “I think I’m a work in progress,” she admits. “[But] I feel it’s so much better than [it was] a year-and-a-half ago, and I feel like in another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today.”

Over the past few years, Sydney Sweeney has become one of America’s sweethearts with celebrated roles in everything from hit HBO shows Euphoria and White Lotus to big-screen movies Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Anyone But You. In addition to her impressive acting ability, the star is a total bombshell and has one of the fittest figures in Hollywood. Here are the top 5 habits that help her stay fit at 27.

Water Skiing

Sydney has been water skiing since she was a toddler. “The moment I could walk, my mom put me on what’s called a U-board to learn how to ski,” she told Women’s Health. “I remember that whenever we would go by the docks of my grandma’s or my cousin’s house, I’d wave. I felt so cool because I could take off one hand. That’s my earliest memory of skiing, but I’ve been doing it as long as I can remember. It’s my favorite.” How does it help her achieve her amazing body? “It’s a lot of upper body strength, it’s balance, it’s core, it’s legs—you get tired really fast,” she says. “I see such a change in my body after an entire summer of [skiing]. My arms are stronger, more sculpted. My abs are rock solid. But I never look at it as a workout because it is so much fun,” she said.

Morning Workouts

Sydney mixes up her exercise routine, but likes to get workouts over with early in the day. “I like to work out in the morning, so I’ll either go for a run or I’ll go to Solidcore,” says Sydney. The high-intensity, low-impact Pilates-inspired workout “makes me feel so strong, but also elongated,” Sydney said about her sweat sessions. “I feel so good afterwards.”

Self-Care

Sydney engages in self-care activities. “I love to paint, and I love to read,” she said. “Those are the activities that are just for me.” One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years than those who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

She Walks and Hikes

One of the ways she treats her anxiety is by spending time outdoors with her dog, Tank. She takes him on walks or hikes. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, 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 reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Mariana Morais is showing off her ab-fab figure – in a two-piece exercise set. In a new social media post, the fitness influencer flaunts her fantastic figure in a brown sports bra and leggings. “Self Progress & Development is not always linear. Sometimes we take steps back & that’s just a sign to course correct so we can leap forward. If 2024 wasn’t the year you expected, use it as an opportunity to learn, grow, & carry on. It’s you VS you - continue to try, focus on consistency > perfection & you will prevail 🤎 rooting for us all to strengthen our mind & bodies this year,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Strength Training

Mariana relies on old-school strength training to keep her body toned. “Training till failure instead of reps + taking my ab routine up a notch by incorporating weighted exercises,” she wrote about one of her workout tactics. “I can feel my muscles being challenged and am in tune with my movements.” According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

  • Develop strong bones
  • Manage your weight
  • Enhance your quality of life
  • Manage chronic conditions
  • Sharpen your thinking skills

Prioritizing Digestion and Getting Blood Work Done

Other healthy habits? “Prioritizing digestion,” she writes in the same post. “Making sure I get enough fiber & starting off every morning with a juice cleanse. This has helped me feel so much better everyday.” She also gets regular blood work done. “So important to check your levels and know what’s going on in your body routinely! Don’t skip the doc apts, always better to be preventative.”

Hiking

Mariana enjoys hiking. “Elevation therapy,” she captioned a post from one of her fitness adventures. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance
  • Improving your heart health
  • Decreasing the risk of some respiratory issues

Pilates

Mariana does reformer Pilates. “POV: Stepping into the prettiest torture chamber,” she wrote across a video of herself at the studio. Why is Pilates a good workout?
