Rebecca Mader is heating up the court – in her tennis gear. In a new social media post the Lost alum shows off her amazing body dressed for a game of tennis. “Game. Set. Match. 2024. 🎾,” she captioned the Instagram post. “Creating quite the racket i see 😂,” one of her followers commented. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
1. Watching Her Diet and Exercising
When filming Lost, “I had to be careful about diet because I put on weight really easily,” Rebecca told Movieweb. “Luckily I lived in a hotel while we were filming, so I had no excuse about exercise. Whenever I had a day off I would go down to the gym and force myself to work out.” Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and 2 days of muscle-strengthening activity, according to the current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.
2. Sleep
When asked by QP magazine what she does to look “stunning,” she responded that it isn’t magic. “My part in it is simple, get as much sleep as possible,” she said. What are the health benefits of sleep? According to the Sleep Foundation, getting enough z’s is a mood booster, promotes heart health, regulates blood sugar, improves mental function, restores your immune system, helps relieve stress, and aids in weight loss.
3. Hydration
Another one of her habits is hydration. “Drink lots of water,” she said. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
4. Vitamins

A third health habit that helps her look great? “I take my vitamins!” she says. While the best way to get your nutrients is always food, if you are nutritionally deficient, you should consider taking vitamins. However, before you do you should always have bloodwork done to see what you need.
5. Tennis
In her recent post Rebecca plays tennis. According to ACE Fitness it blends together cardio and aerobic exercise, as there is a lot of running around, and hand-eye coordination. "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.
