Here are her diet and fitness habits

Pia Whitesell is heating up Greece in her bikini. In a new social media post, the model and actress shows off her fantastic figure in a skimpy swimsuit while vacationing in Europe. “Oh Greece . i love you 🇬🇷❤️🙏🏽🤍 🫠 🫒,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Gorgeous, Gorgeous, Gorgeous !!!!!!🔥” one of her followers commented. “The body and face of a goddess! Your beauty is simply out of this world,” added another. How does the 41-year-old manage to look half her age? Here are her top diet and fitness habits.

1

Pilates

Pia does Pilates. “I work with Fluidform [Pilates] and have been doing it at home now for some time. [Kirsten King’s] whole philosophy as a Pilates teacher is about poise and lengthening,” Pia revealed to Body + Soul about her go-to workout.

Hiking

Whitesell is a hiker. In this recent set of photos she hikes a cave trail in Sydney. “Adventure time,” she captioned it. “The faster, farther and more frequently you walk, the greater the benefits,” the Mayo Clinic says about hiking. “For example, you may start out as an average walker, and then work your way up to walking faster and walking a mile in a shorter amount of time than an average walker, similar to power walkers. This can be a great way to get aerobic activity, improve your heart health and increase your endurance while burning calories.”

Biking

Pia loves spinning on exercise bikes and outdoors. “A single exercise session that gets your heartrate up can lower blood pressure, improve sleep, lower anxiety and improve insulin sensitivity on the day you do it. Other benefits, like lowering your risk of many chronic diseases and cancers, start adding up within days or weeks of regular physical activity,” says the Mayo Clinic.

Infrared Saunas

“I have an infrared sauna, so I use that a lot. And I have an unheated pool, so I go from the sauna to the pool,” Pia told Body + Soul. “I really do love infrared – you can have a moment of escapism. It’s like, ‘Boys, I’m in the sauna. Do not disturb.'”

Cardio at the Gym

Pia also makes sure to exercise. “I switch it up with going to the gym and listening to hip-hop while running on the treadmill or on the step machine,” she told Body + Soul. Physical activity is anything that gets your body moving. According to the current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and 2 days of muscle-strengthening activity each week.

Surfing

Pia, who lives in Malibu with her husband, loves surfing. According to the Australian government’s Better Health, surfing provides many health benefits, including cardiovascular fitness from paddling, shoulder and back strength, which is also strengthened from the paddling, and leg and core strength. “Once you’re standing up on the board, strong legs and a strong core will keep you up,” they say.

7

Mental Health

Pia prioritizes her mental health. “Being in the ocean and outdoors as much as possible with my boys. Whether it’s at a basketball court or going for a coastal walk, racing up the street. I have these boys with this insane athletic ability. They smash me!” she told Body + Soul.
