Lindsey Vonn is wakeboarding in her swimsuit. In one of her latest social media posts the Olympian flaunts her incredible figure in a bathing suit while out in the ocean, where she had an unfortunate encounter with a sea creature. “What started off as a great day ended in a giant jellyfish 🪼 sting/bite… I literally rode over it as I was getting up on the wake surf board 🤦🏼‍♀️ thanks to everyone who gave advice on remedies. Think it’s gonna leave a mark for a while … 🤕 at least I caught some waves before!” she captioned the post. How does the gold medalist stay in great shape now that she has retired from skiing? Here is her diet and fitness routine.


1. Meal 1: Breakfast

Lindey starts the day with either a breakfast of banana and almond butter if she's doing cardio at the gym, eggs with some avocado if she's planning on lifting weights at the gym, or something even heartier, like steel cut oats with fruit, if she's going skiing, she told Women’s Health.

2. She Works Out Three to Four Times a Week

Lindsey maintains that she listens to her brain and body when it comes to exercise. "Whatever you like doing is what you should be doing," she told Women’s Health. She generally exercises at least three to four times a week, usually in the mornings.

3. She Does Cardio Twice a Week

Lindsey does cardio at least twice a week, but avoids running."I have a doctor's note that says I should never run again in my life, and I'm okay with that," she says. Instead she cycles or surfs.

4. Meal 2: Post Workout Snack

n'"When I finish a workout, I want something sweet right away," Lindsey says about her go-to protein shake. It will often involve fruit or almond butter and beet powder.

5. Meals 3 and 4: Protein and Veggies

Lunch is a salad and protein. For dinner she will whip out her air fryer and throw in a protein, usually salmon, to have with salad. "I always put a little goat cheese on there and as many veggies as possible," she says. She also bakes swordfish with Carbone marinara sauce.

6. She Takes a Post-Dinner Walk

After dinner, Lindsey goes out for a walk. "I have to go outside and walk the glucose off with my dog," she says.

7. She Journals

Journaling is another self-care method for Lindsey. "Journaling has been really helpful for me throughout the course of my whole career, but especially when I retired," she says. On bad days, she will reread journal entries. "It's important to journal on good days because when you have bad days you can go back [and read it] and you know, This is what it felt like to have a good day," she says.

1. She Recently Leaned Up

2023 Time100 GalaTaylor Hill/FilmMagic

Lindsey is "a lot leaner" than she was during her professional skiing day. "I used to do things that were so sport specific, so I had to be bigger," she told New York Post's Alexa magazine. "But everyone is like, 'Oh my God, you're in the best shape of your life.' It's like — yes and no. I'm not training for my sport anymore, I am training to be lean and fit." She recently revealed that she had gotten down to her lowest body fat percentage of her life, 15 percent—five percent less than her all-time low of 19 percent. "Different training. Different diet. Crazy!"

2. She Eats Clean

During her skiing day, Vonn revealed to People that her “ski season” diet included “a lot of protein and carbs.” However, she now works with nutritionist Phil Goglia, focusing on drinking a lot of water, eating clean food, and timing her meals. “I try not to eat too much in the morning before I work out,” she told Women’s Health. “I’m not working out crazy hard, but I notice I feel better; not as weighed down.” Post-workout, Lindsey eats “egg white omelets with broccoli, chicken, and pepper, and stuff like that.” Lunch could be chicken or salmon with kale or cabbage. Dinner is also a mix of protein and veggies – like chicken salad with avocado or a zucchini pasta with bolognese meat sauce. Her favorite snacks are almonds, kiwis, and blueberries.

3. She Does Strength Training Workouts

Vonn is all about hard-core strength training. She works out regularly with Gunnar Peterson and isn’t afraid of lifting heavy weights. Her workouts are a combo of strength and weight training, using a lot of weighted balls, battle ropes, lifts, squats. You can check out one of her workouts here.

4. She Has Workout Buddies

Vonn enjoys working out with others. One of her workout buddies is her “best friend” supermodel Ashley Graham. Other workout buddies have included X-Games skateboarding champ Leticia Bufoni and of course, her trainer, Gunnar.

5. She Doesnt Skip Workouts

Vonn regularly demonstrates that she never skips a workout. Even while on vacation you can find her sweating away at the gym. She also has a workout studio in her home.

6. She Skis

Even though Lindsey is no longer skiing for work, she still hits the slopes with her friends for a great workout. “Finally got to ski with my girl @chelseahandler! What an epic day of powder,” she captioned a recent post. Research has linked downhill skiing to a number of health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress and the occurrence of memory deficits declines.

7. She Incorporates Plant-Based Foods Into Her Diet

While Lindsey does eat animal products she tries to slip in plant-based foods when she can. “Listen, the kitchen can be intimidating to anyone. But I’m here to tell you: You can do it. And with the new year, let’s do it better, together. I’ve got 14 places to help you start eating more plant-based foods,” she captioned a post, suggesting the Just Egg cookbook to her followers. “Now, if only every new year’s resolution came with a side of omelets.”

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

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.

We are committed to bringing you researched, expert-driven content to help you make more informed decisions around food, health, and wellness. We know how important making choices about your overall health is, and we strive to provide you with the best information possible.

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? 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.

Emsculpt NEO

Mariana recently got an aesthetic body treatment, Emsculpt NEO. “I’ve heard all the rage about the benefits to spot reducing fat & toning muscle so I had to give it a try to target those pesky lower abs. It was a 10/10 & a great addition to my workout routine,” she wrote.
