Dutch model Sanne Vloet is showing fans how to do an intense 10-minute ab workout with no equipment needed aside from a yoga mat. Vloet, 29, shared a video of herself wearing brown Alo Yoga shorts and a matching sports bra, going through the ab routine and explaining it. “Workouts you can do anywhere and anytime. While traveling I like to move my body, not because I have to but because it feels good. Roll out that mat or towel and listen to your body 💪🏼. Find this 10 min intense ab workout or other travel friendly workouts on the new girlies on the go playlist on @soulsyncbody,” she captioned the post. Here’s how the model stays fit, strong, and healthy, inside and out.


1. Gentle Mornings

Vloet is an early bird, and uses the mornings to ease into her day gently. “I usually wake up around 6:30 a.m. and will do my morning routine, including tongue scraping, brushing my teeth, and a quick skincare routine,” she told Camille Styles. “After making a cup of tea, I take five minutes to journal my thoughts. Following this, I will do a 10-minute priming meditation/gratitude practice by Tony Robbins, which shifts my body and mind into a positive mindset.”

2. Pilates and Cold Showers

Vloet likes to work out before she has breakfast. “Taking this phone-free, quiet time in the morning is crucial for me,” she told Camille Styles. “Then, I incorporate a workout to move my body before the workday, whether it’s a Pilates session, a stretch with a foam roller, or a strength workout. After a cold shower, I make breakfast around 8:30/9 a.m., and my day begins!”

3. Protein For Breakfast

Vloet loves a protein-packed breakfast to start the day. “I love a savory breakfast with protein. It helps me stay full and energized and balances my blood sugar levels,” she told Camille Styles. “As it’s winter, I’ve been enjoying adding squash to my diet. A typical winter plate includes eggs, cottage cheese, avocado, and squash. I share many healthy breakfast ideas on my app, Soul Sync Body.”

4. Meditation and Mindfulness

She focused on breathing exercises during the pandemic lockdowns. “Even during this time, I am still trying to plan my on-days and off-days,” she told Rose & Ivy. “I want to get into meditation. Something nice that me, my boyfriend and a friend who is staying with us have been doing is every night before dinner, we hold hands and take three big deep breaths—that breathing is something I want to work on. Sometimes after a full day, I realized I literally forgot to breathe.”

5. Stretching Every Day

Vloet is careful not to put undue stress on her body. “I think listening to your body and what you need is important,” she told Rose & Ivy. “For me, I have noticed that my routine is important. I am very much a morning person so going to bed early has helped and then getting up early. I think the first 30 minutes are really important—no phone—just waking up and stretching. Stretching has really helped change my body and my mind over the last few months. I would work out but even doing that gives a sort of stress to your body that we don’t notice. I would do an hour stretch and notice that it calms down my mind so much without stressing out my body.”

Romee Strijd is getting a facial massage in her workout gear. In a new social media post the Dutch model shows off her flat abs in a green crop top while getting her face rubbed by a professional. She shared the image via her Instagram Stories. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. Fueling Up with Health Food

Romee maintains a healthy diet, staying away from red meat. “It's been something I've been trying to do—I think it has certain health benefits for me,” she told Elle Australia. What does she eat in a day? “I love oatmeal in the morning; you can find the recipe on my YouTube channel. For lunch, she will eat a bowl of grains, salad, and vegetables, and for dinner, she enjoys eating out at a nice restaurant with her boyfriend or friends. “There are so many restaurants to go to on a cheat day. I love bread, with dips, sushi, burgers, pasta…” she said. “But my real cheat meal is dessert. I have a sweet tooth so this is the area where I like to cheat. Ice cream, with chocolate, caramel, etc… That's what gets me excited!”

2. Food Prep

Romee recommends food prep. “I think the most important thing for women on-the-go is to be prepared,” she told Glamour. “I really like to prepare my day the night before if I know the next day is going to be hectic. Brussels sprouts and butternut roasted in the oven, paired with chicken and hummus is my favorite! I’ll also make sure to bring healthy snacks or make a lunch/dinner box if I am getting on a plane. (I’m not a huge fan of airline food.)”

3. Workout Buddies

"My boyfriend and I workout together. We never really do the same training, but we go to the gym together and then we say, 'Okay, one hour from now we’re leaving.' So, it helps. We get competitive. We always do a planking challenge. I think it’s really motivating [to work out with your partner], because whenever I don’t feel like it, he’s like, 'Oh, come on. Let’s do it! Let’s get it over with!'” she told Harper’s Bazaar Singapore. "[The Angels and I] always try to work out together and then plan a nice brunch or lunch after. It’s really motivating. Jasmine [Tookes] is the most hardcore. She's strong. She can do a lot of weights!"

4. Short Workouts

Romee tries to get a workout in, even when she has little to no time. "I’m not always motivated, but you just have to go do it because afterwards you feel so great and you enjoy the day more because you’ve done it. So, just start somewhere. Just do something. Say to yourself that you only have 15 minutes or something and then it comes from there,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

5. Ab Work

Romee does a lot of work to keep her abs flat. "For abs, I like a little circuit on the mat. With every [exercise], you should always be using your abs—even when you do squats. Try to feel them [with every movement]. I’ve been doing everything myself with ankle weights and resistance bands, and I bring my jump rope when I travel. You can even do it in a hotel room if you have a mat,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

Beitske Visser is a successful race car driver. She has placed 2nd in the W Series in 2019 and 2022. After an injury, she is making sure to do some recovery workouts. Visser shared her process on Instagram in February. In it, Visser is seen doing strength training workouts, ab workouts, and planks. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Beitske Visser stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Strength Trains

In her Instagram video, Visser is seen doing strength training workouts like bench presses and tricep curls. According to Reid Health, strength training can help with your wellbeing. “Strength training not only benefits the body it also improves mental well-being by reducing stress and anxiety. Strength training helps your brain release naturally occurring ‘feel-good’ chemicals called endorphins improving your mood and decreasing anxiety. In addition strength training can also help increase your confidence and self-esteem which in turn can increase your quality of life.”

2. She Does Planks

In the Instagram video, Visser is seen holding a plank. Allina Health states that planks have a lot of health benefits. “The plank is a simple, effective bodyweight exercise that strengthens your core, as well as muscles in your upper and lower body. Core muscles, which include your back and abdomen, help you maintain posture and balance as you stand, sit and move throughout the day.”

3. She Works Her Abs

Beitske.Visser.3Beitske Visser/Instagram

In her Instagram video, Visser is seen doing Russian Twists, which help your core. The Mayo Clinic states that having a strong core is important. “Your core is the central part of your body. It includes your pelvis, lower back, hips and stomach. The stomach muscles sometimes are called abs. Core exercises train the muscles in your core to work in harmony. This leads to better balance and steadiness, also called stability. Stability is important whether you're on the playing field or doing regular activities. In fact, most sports and other physical activities depend on stable core muscles.”

4. She Swims

Visser loves to swim to stay in shape. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself in the water. Visser captioned this post of herself in the pool, “Can summer come back please?” She also shared this photo of herself in a pool in Spain. Visser captioned that post, “Enjoying my holiday.”

5. She Rock Climbs

Visser loves to rock climb to stay in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself working out. In the first one, she is seen on a climbing wall. Visser captioned the post, “Great training camp done and ready for the first part of the season.” Goodnet reports that indoor rock climbing has a lot of benefits. “Rock climbing gets the heart rate up as much as running or cycling. A study from the British Journal of Sports Medicine showed that indoor rock climbing has the same cardiovascular impact as running eight to ten minutes per mile. Indoor rock climbing doesn’t just strengthen the heart muscle. This full body workout engages nearly all major muscle groups, claims Health Fitness Revolution. The core abdominal muscles, forearms and biceps, quads and calves and everything in between are all involved in helping climbers clamber up that wall.”

Elisa Pecini is pontificating about the importance of nutrition in her workout gear. In a new social media post the IFBB champ exercises and discusses why it’s crucial to fuel your body with healthy food. “In the intense routine of workouts, cardio, work, keeping up with nutrition is essential. Having healthy, practical options makes it a lot easier to focus on what really matters. This is why having ready, balanced meals always on hand makes all the difference to my performance,” she writes in the Instagram video. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. Her Go-To Glute Workout

Pecini shared her favorite glute workout with Muscle & Fitness:

  • Machine Hip Abduction: 5 x 15 — Pecini adds a loop band just above her knees.
  • Smith Machine Reverse Lunge: 3 x 15 — Pecini performs these with her front foot elevated.
  • Landmine Sumo Deadlift: 4 x 12
  • Machine Weighted Glute Bridge: 4 x 12
  • Straight-leg Cable Glute Kickback: 4 x 12

2. Here Is Everything You Need to Know About Her Diet

“My diet changes several times during preparation but these are minor adjustments. It is composed of carbohydrates: rice, oats. Proteins: chicken, fish, egg white, whey protein and sometimes red meat. And lipids like avocado, nuts, peanut butter, olive oil,” Elisa told Mo Marketplace, “What changes in my off-season and pre-contest diet are the quantities as the foods are basically the same. In the off-season, I have 1 free meal a week, and most of the time it's a hamburger, but my favorite dish is to go to a good restaurant and eat grilled salmon with black rice and vegetables without having to weigh the food. I use supplements in my diets like whey protein, bcaa, glutamine, l carnitine, caffeine, pre-workout and all I use are from NewMillen because it’s the brand I know and trust, I don’t like to risk what I don’t know. In pre-contest 1200 to 1500 and off-season 2300kcal per day.”

3. Her Go-To Should Workout

Here is Elisa’s go-to shoulder workout, she revealed to Muscle & Fitness.

  • Standing Shoulder Abduction: Sets: 7, Reps: 12
  • Seated Unilateral Shoulder Abduction: Sets: 3, Reps: 12
  • Arnold Press: Sets: 3, Reps: 12
  • Dumbbell Front Raise: Sets: 3, Reps: 12
  • Upright Row: Sets: 3, Reps: 12
  • Dumbbell Crucifix Hold: Sets: 3, Reps: To failure

4. Only One Rest Day Per Week

“I train 6 days a week. My rest day is on the seventh day which is usually on Sundays. My training routine for the week varies a lot according to the competition phase, at the moment it looks like this: shoulder, buttocks, back, shoulder, buttock, and chest,” she told Mo Marketplace. “I always vary my workouts and never repeat the same workout, I always like the various stimuli, do slow, focused exercises, sometimes use a drop set, sometimes use more load but always maintaining the quality of movement and amplitude, for me variations in a workout are very important.”

5. Cardio

Elisa finishes off her workout by walking. “My cardio is always after the 30-minute workout I like to do with the treadmill at a moderate speed(a brisk walk),” she said. Going for a daily walk 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.

Senada Greca may be on vacation, but she is just as dedicated to her workout routine as when she’s at home. Greca shared videos of herself doing an upper body and abdominal workout, wearing black exercise gear as she put herself through her paces in the bright sunshine of St. Barts. She also shared exactly which moves she was doing, breaking them down for each video. reca’s incredible, strong, toned physique is all the advertisement she needs for her training routine—here’s what her exercise regimen and diet look like.


1. Her Fitness Philosophy

Greca’s workouts are focused on strength training with weights and resistance bands. “I am a sincere believer that fitness and movement should be an inseparable part of someone’s life. We were born to be active, born to be mobile,” she told Glamour South Africa. “Thus, I encourage people to make movement fun and interesting, and in turn sustainable… I like to focus on legs 2-3 days per week, on upper body 2 days, and 1 full body workout per week. Sunday I work abs and throw in some fun active-rest work, like bicycling or a long walk.”

2. Lots of Protein

Greca’s diet is centered around protein intake. “I’m a flexible eater. My main focus is getting enough protein daily; carbs and fats fill the rest of my macros, which I intuitively track,” she told Glamour South Africa. “I suggest that most people do track their macros, especially in the beginning of their fitness journey, so as to learn what the proper way of feeding ones’ self looks like.”

3. Strength Through Aging

4. Sustainable Changes

Greca encourages beginners to start with small, sustainable steps on their journey to fitness—and to keep a positive mindset. “I know where I have been mentally and physically when fitness wasn’t a part of my life, so wanting to keep the monsters of anxiety and depression away keeps me motivated and accountable,” she told Glamour South Africa. “I know for many, self-talk is an inhibitor, but for me it is the most persuasive and consistent accountability partner I could ever have. One just needs to change that self talk into being positive and encouraging.”

5. Full Workout

Here is Greca’s upper body abs workout in full, according to her post: “Upper / Abs Workout No Equipment, Anywhere so Save and Share 👯‍♀️. To train with The Senada Method, WeRise App Iink in my BIO 💪 Yes… I work out on vacation because to me, working out is not a chore, but rather a way to care for my body and mind. When we shift our perspective from “I have to” to “I get to”, then working out becomes not only enjoyable but also sustainable 🫶.”

  2. Superwoman to around the world with shoulder rotations

German Model Leonie Hanne Stuns in Style

Leonie Hanne is living her best life in Thailand – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the German model flaunts her fantastic figure in a $750 Missoni bathing suit while enjoying a boating day in the tropics. “She dreamed of a tropical adventure 🦋,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “Stunning,” commented one of her followers. ”So beautiful,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Coffee

Leonie enjoys the perks of caffeine. In one of her posts from Thailand, she drinks a cup of coffee at the poolside. According to the Cleveland Clinic, drinking coffee in moderation has several benefits. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Pilates

Leonie does Pilates at the super exclusive London studio Pilates in the Clouds. Why is Pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic, the workout has many benefits, as it “strengthens the body's inner core while increasing its flexibility, resulting in improved overall health.” It can also promote longer, leaner muscles, injury prevention, stress, and back pain relief, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

At-Home Workouts

Leonie tries to get a workout in daily, preferably in the morning. I still try to get up early to maintain a sense of routine. I start every day with a quick at-home workout and a homemade acai bowl, before starting work on emails and content creation. I’ve been getting really into TikTok lately, it’s funny and keeps me feeling energised!” she told Arcadia.

Community

It takes a village, according to Leonie. “Community is key! The people you surround yourself with are more important than ever, as we are all trying to find ways to stay connected without being physically present. Speaking to people either on the phone or through social media can shift your mindset and motivation more than ever before,” she says.

Small, Healthy Habits

Leonie focuses on maintaining small, healthy habits. “Do something every day that brings you joy. Even if that means having something small to look forward to, like having your favourite snacks around the house or changing into an outfit that makes you feel good about yourself,” she says.

Sophie Piper is embracing island life – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Love Island beauty shows off her fantastic figure in a swimsuit during a tropical vacation at Kandima Maldives with Josh Ritchie. “Island life,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps taken at the picturesque resort. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

She Doesn't Go Under the Knife

Sophie claims she hasn’t gone under the knife. “It’s your own body, you can do what you want to,” she told Grazia, weighing in on the show’s reputation for girls getting work done. “I wouldn’t have surgery myself; I don’t want it. I’ve got such a low pain tolerance as well; I’d be squirming around.”

She Gets Her Steps In

Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Sophie loves paddle boarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and cardio. Water sports can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140-pound male and 436 calories for a female of the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

She Skis

When Sophie hits the mountains, she throws on a pair of skis. “Ski club,” she captioned a photo. Research has linked downhill skiing to several health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, the prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress, and the occurrence of memory deficits decline.

She Loves Group Fitness

“You’ve got to be body confident,” Sophie told Grazia. One of her favorite sweat methods? Group fitness. “A few gym classes can’t hurt,” she said.

She Goes Snorkeling

On her recent Maldives vacation, Sophie and Josh snorkeled in the crystal clear water. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Tammy Hembrow is a fitness influencer and expert. She has her own app, called Tammy Fit. Hembrow has a lot of challenges on her app. Recently, she advertised a challenge with a workout video on Instagram. Hembrow captioned the post, “We are 3 days into our first @tammyfitapp challenge of the year & I am more motivated than everrrrr. (Sign ups are still open if you haven’t joined yet - there’s still time to catch up!! - link in bio). Soooo happy seeing so many of my girlies (and guys) in this challenge doing it with me!! And I CANNOT wait to see everyone’s results at the end of the 8 weeks. We got thissss 💪🏼”

She Does Pulldowns

Hembrow is seen doing pulldowns in her Instagram video. Piedmont reports that pulldowns have a lot of benefits. “The lat pulldown is a fantastic exercise for strengthening the latissimus dorsi muscle, the broadest muscle in your back. This muscle promotes good posture and spinal stability. Form is crucial when performing a lat pulldown to prevent injury and reap the best results.”

She Lifts Weights

Hembrow is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that using weights to workout has a lot of 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.”

She Tracks Her Meals

Hembrow likes to track her meals on her app. She talked about the benefits of this in the caption of this “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. “Make sure to take advantage of the calorie/macro tracking features in the @tammyfitapp during this challenge guys. It can be really helpful in reaching specific goals quicker. And it also can help educate you on your food choices when it comes to nutrition, ratios, hidden calories, overeating or under eating etc. honestly I’d recommend any beginner try it out just to get a good feel for how you’re fuelling your body!! I feel like when people think of ‘meal tracking’ it can be seen as something that seems restrictive or something only bodybuilders do. When in reality it can be such a helpful tool and you can learn things that will actually encourage long term habits 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

She Loves Bananas

Tammy Hebrew has a banana snack.

Hembrow is seen enjoying bananas in her “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that bananas have a lot of benefits. “A single medium-sized banana offers about 32 mg of the mineral magnesium, which fulfills around 8% to 10% of your daily magnesium requirement. Magnesium is involved in many processes in your body, including: Blood pressure. Blood sugar levels. Building proteins. Maintaining bone. Muscle function. Nerve function.”

She Loves Cottage Cheese

Tammy Hebrew's snack the contains banana and cottage cheese.

Hembrow is seen enjoying her bananas with cottage cheese in the previous Instagram video. Cottage cheese is very healthy. UCLA Health reports, “Cottage cheese’s protein content and low calories make it an ideal food for weight management. Research shows that whether you are trying to lose weight or reduce your risk of overweight or obesity, eating a high-protein diet can help you feel full and satisfied for longer.”
