Soha Ali Khan is wrapping up her busy week with an extra-intense workout in the rain. Khan, 45, shared a video of herself wearing black leggings and a white sports bra, working out at her gym and doing sled workouts outside. “If it's raining, we're still training... also TGIF!! #noexcuses #workout #fitnessmotivation #rain #tgif,” she captioned the post. Here’s how the actress and mother stays fit and healthy.


1. Walking and Yoga

Khan does low-impact workouts once a day. “I make sure to exercise every day for a minimum of 30 minutes and start with yoga,” she told Times of India. “I also make sure I complete 10,000 steps every day. If nothing, I walk around the house and terrace, taking breaks in between activities to ensure I am not sedentary for long hours.

2. Sleep and Stress Management

Khan knows how important sleep is for health and beauty. “My idea of a healthy lifestyle is to prioritize regular exercise and physical activity, along with a balanced and nutritious diet,” she told India Today. “I believe in getting enough sleep and managing stress through meditation or other mindfulness practices. Additionally, staying hydrated and maintaining a positive attitude towards life is crucial for overall well-being.”

3. Lots of Almonds

Khan eats almonds throughout the day. “I make sure to begin my day with almonds,” she told Times of India. “This has been a consistent habit since childhood, and I also make sure my family eats a handful every day too. Almonds are a source of zinc which plays an important role in growth, development, and the maintenance of immune function. I also make sure to eat lots of yogurt and seasonal fruits like mangoes and watermelon, as well as green vegetables.”

4. Light Dinner

Khan enjoys lean meat and vegetables and a light dinner. “For lunch, I like to eat chicken or fish with some dal, vegetables, and brown rice or roti,” she told Times of India. “I end the day on a light note and usually have a salad with lots of vegetables, almonds, and herbs drizzled with a citrus dressing.”

5. Fitness Advice

Khan has good advice for people starting on their fitness journey. “Some tips for someone starting their fitness journey would be to start small, stay consistent, find a form of exercise that you enjoy, prioritize rest and recovery, and fuel your body with nutritious foods.”

Iranian actress Elnaaz Norouzi is hitting the gym and sharing pictures of her outfits for social media. Norouzi, 28, shared a snap of herself posing in the elevator, taking a selfie in green two-piece workout gear. “Mama is back in her lift—but first gotta hit the gym,” reads the text on her Instagram story. Norouzi is passionate about health and wellness, and is constantly improving herself—here’s how the actress stays toned and fit.


1. Workout Routine

Elnaaz Norouzi.1Elnaaz Norouz/Instagram

Norouzi loves to stay active. “I have different times for working out, [it] generally depends on my work schedule,” she told Women Fitness. “I try to incorporate different things while working out, it can be yoga, martial arts, dancing and even hiking when I am in Germany. The most important thing is to keep moving! My message for the reader on prioritizing fitness and health would be that fitness and health are the most important things in life everything comes later on since if you are healthy and fit then only you can excel in life therefore it’s very important to keep yourself hydrated and have a good lifestyle so that you have a long and healthy life.”

2. Loyal Personality

Norouzi says she is a loving and giving person when you get to know her. “If you see me working or chilling on the set, you might think I am not very approachable at first — or you might think I am cold, but I’m actually a very emotional person!” she told Masala!. “I love to make sure my people are happy and well taken care of. I like people who know what they want, loyalty is very important to me...what I don’t like is inconsistency.“

3. Intermittent Fasting

Norouzi practices intermittent fasting when she wants to reset her health and fitness. “During Covid, I put on a lot of weight around 8 kilos, this was because I felt sick and I was back in Germany enjoying food with my family but when I came back I had to lose weight because I had to start shooting for my shows,” she told Women Fitness. “I started to follow intermittent fasting and it has definitely helped me a lot, I feel more energetic. It has helped in cleansing my body when it comes to eating appropriate portions and not consuming a lot of junk. My favorite cheat meal has to be pizza!”

4. Learning Hindi

Norouzi taught herself to speak Hindi to work in Bollywood. “It’s been 5 years since Sacred Games and I can say that I haven’t been fully accepted,” she told Masala!. It’s still a big struggle to make people believe that I can speak Hindi fluently, or that I could be as good as any other Indian actress. But I can sense that I am on the right track of being fully accepted. It’s obviously been very hard but that’s what I chose.”

5. No Luck, Just Hard Work

Like Billy Zane’s character in Titanic, Norouzi doesn’t believe in luck. “I was 14 when I started modeling,” she told Mag the Weekly. “I started working with photographers, taking pictures, reading a lot about modeling. Then one thing lead to another. I don’t believe in luck as such, I think I’m really hardworking. When I look back to the things I have done in life, how hard I had to work to get here, I really think I was not lucky.”

Indian actress Soha Ali Khan is dedicated to her wellness and fitness regimen, and seems to be getting stronger by the year—her social media is proof! Khan, 45, shared a video of herself wearing purple leggings and a black tank top, lifting heavy weights at the gym with a personal trainer. “Bring it on!!! #fitnessmotivation #workout #vibes #bringiton,” she captioned the post, showing her using both machines and free-form dumbbells. “Such an inspiration you are,” an admiring fan commented. Here’s how the star stays fit, healthy, and beautiful.


1. HIIT Workouts

Khan enjoys HIIT and strength workouts. “My workout routine is a mixture of high intensity interval training, yoga and jogging,” she told The Financial Express. “I usually indulge myself with HIIT four times a week, jog twice and practice yoga maybe once a week. This exercise routine also helps me set a good example for my daughter, and I definitely sleep better at night, feel happier and relaxed – thanks to my exercise regime.”

2. Healthy Snacks

Khan keeps healthy snacks on hand to avoid consuming junk food. “I do this by mostly adding foods like nuts like almonds, Haldi, Hing, in my own and my family’s diet,” she told The Financial Express. “Having a little one at home also puts me under a microscope as she eats from my plate regularly, so to make sure she eats well too, I add ingredients that are healthy and tasty like broccoli, almonds, fish, dal, etc. to my meals. Additionally, since childhood my mom has inculcated the habit of consuming almonds daily, and I also know that they are a source of 15 nutrients such as vitamin E, magnesium, protein, riboflavin, zinc, etc. which is important to help grow your muscle mass and keep you energetic through the day.”

3. Light Dinner

Dinner is Khan’s lightest meal of the day. “I start my day with lukewarm water/Methi water along with a handful of plain or soaked almonds and consume them through the day at regular intervals, to keep my cravings at bay,” she told NDTV Food. “For breakfast, I usually eat a Dosa or an omelet with fresh fruits and a gluten-free toast with honey. For lunch, I like to eat chicken or fish with some dal, vegetables, and brown rice or roti. I end the day on a light note and usually have a salad with lots of vegetables, almonds, and herbs drizzled with a citrus dressing.”

4. Holistic Skincare

Khan is a firm believer that when it comes to beauty, you are what you eat. “I am very particular when it comes to skincare and a believer in the natural skincare routine,” she told The Financial Express. “I’ve also been very mindful of my diet in order to maintain healthy and glowing skin. Besides eating healthy food to nourish my skin from within, I also make sure to keep myself hydrated and drink at least 2-3 liters of water as it helps balance the pH level, flushes out the toxins, prevents zits and acne, and helps reduces the sagging of skin.”

5. Beetroot Juice

Khan makes sure she and her family consume plenty of immune-supporting fruits in the winter. “During winters, I try to include as many seasonal fruits as possible in our diet,” she told NDTV Food. “I like having beetroot juice and Amla, because of their beneficial values for the skin. Beetroot juice gives a glow to my skin and has anti-inflammatory properties.”

Indian actress Sara Ali Khan is giving her 45 million Instagram followers a look at what a typical core workout looks like. Khan, 28, shared a video of herself wearing green shorts and a sports bra, doing slow, controlled abdominal exercises on a Pilates reformer machine. “Start your day right, hold your core tight. I shall invest in some more gym wear soon! Till then I’m more than happy in my green,” reads the text over her post. Khan famously lost almost 90 pounds through diet and exercise—here’s how the star keeps it off and focuses on her health.


1. Her Fitness Goals

Khan changes up her fitness goals depending on her work—for example, having to look a certain way for a certain role. “But my fitness endeavor started before the realization that I wanted to become an actor,” she told Elle India. “My fitness goal is to wake up every morning and get in at least an hour of some form of exercise so I am a stronger and happier version of myself. I think the hormones that one has going after a good workout and just the feeling of satisfaction and conviction in yourself after a good workout is irreplaceable. That feel-good-serotonin that just rushes through your body is my goal.”

2. Moody Day Workouts

Khan does specific workouts to lift her mood when she needs a boost. “Usually a swim or a boxing session helps,” she told Elle India. “But if it's an extremely low day, and then I think a piece of chocolate that guilts me into working out even harder the next day keeps me going.”

3. 90-Pound Weight Loss

Khan lost almost 90 pounds and transformed her life. “My weight loss journey has been a profound learning experience, unveiling crucial insights into wellness and self-care,” she told Lifestyle Asia. “The massive impact nutrition has on overall fitness has been my key takeaway from my journey. It is rightly said beauty truly begins in the kitchen. I have come to appreciate the nourishing power of natural ingredients for nurturing my skin from within.”

4. Yoga, Meditation, and Self-Care

Khan has a holistic approach to health and beauty. “I think beauty tips are very subjective because it depends on how comfortable you are with the products you use,” she told Lifestyle Asia. “But for me a couple of these things are essential on a daily routine basis – a good, nourishing shower gel with skin conditioners, an effective sunscreen and lots of water throughout the day. I usually keep an hour in the day to meditate or practice yoga which also lets me unwind and relax.”

5. Her Fitness Advice

Khan has good advice for fitness beginners. “Don’t get disappointed if you don’t see immediate results, anything worth it takes time,” she told Elle India. “Look good, feel good, work harder—I work out better when I look better so dress for yourself in the gym. Set a weekly target for yourself with a reward system, so you can keep going. Working out is just half the battle, eating right is as important. Change up your routine; body, mind and souls enjoy variation in workout!”

Read on to see 5 ways Sara Ali Khan stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!


1. This is How She Got Into Fitness

“For me, it all started in New York. I weighed 96kg and had a year to go before I graduated. The transition from pizza to salad and from lethargy to cardio is how I kickstarted my fitness journey. I simply started eating healthy and began working out when in New York. There were so many different types of classes in that city, from functional training to boxing to cycling. But because I was so overweight at the start, [my routine] was more about cardio-heavy workouts like walking, cycling and hitting the treadmill—so that I could lose the weight before entering the intermediate forms of exercise,” she told Vogue.

2. Sara Ali Khan Has This Workout Trick

“The main thing for me is to get any form of workout at least six times a week,” she has said. “I recently discovered that on YouTube you can change the playback speed of songs. So now I can actually work out to pretty much any song depending on the pace of it. I can always make it 1.25, 1.5 or two times faster than the original track, so that makes it a lot easier,” Sara Ali Khan told Vogue.

3. She Does Vinyasa Yoga

Sara Ali Khan enjoys Vinyasa yoga. “The potential health benefits of yoga include:

  • Stress reduction. A number of studies have shown that yoga may help reduce stress and anxiety. It can also enhance your mood and overall sense of well-being.
  • Improved fitness. Practicing yoga may lead to improved balance, flexibility, range of motion and strength.
  • Management of chronic conditions. Yoga can help reduce risk factors for chronic diseases, such as heart disease and high blood pressure. Yoga might also help alleviate chronic conditions, such as depression, pain, anxiety and insomnia,” says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Does Pilates

“Pilates-based exercises performed along with standard exercise programs were more effective for improving balance and quality of life than standard exercise programs alone,” write the authors of one study. “Pilates mat exercises contributed to increase in the strength and endurance of core muscles in post delivered women and even improve the fitness of women by improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness and decrease in the girth measurements,” says another study.

5. She Has Had PCOS

Sara Ali Khan has talked about having PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) on Koffee With Karan. “I was 96 kgs. Actually, I had PCOS. I still do. And, because of that, I think I put on the amount of weight that I did. Because of that, there was also a hormone problem.” Other celebrities—from Leah Michele to Victoria Beckham—have had PCOS, and so has celebrity trainer Jillian Michaels. “PCOS – short for polycystic ovarian syndrome is a health condition that affects 1 in 10 women. Literally, it's the development of small fluid filled sacs or ‘cysts’ in the ovaries and it’s caused by a hormone imbalance. Too much androgenic hormones (testosterone, DHEA) and not enough estrogen. PCOS is also linked to insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes,” she once wrote. “Therefore, in my opinion, when it comes to PCOS the key is to look for the reasons your hormones are out of whack in the first place and address that! The top reasons are as follows –" bad "food and way too much of it. Not enough exercise.”

Alice De Bortoli doesn’t just light up Instagram with her stunning fashion and effortless style—she also shares the secrets behind her enviable beach-ready physique. The Italian influencer keeps her followers in the loop when it comes to fitness, beauty, and wellness, proving that looking and feeling great is all about consistency. From skincare rituals to core-sculpting workouts, De Bortoli’s daily habits make it clear that staying in shape is about more than just hitting the gym. Whether she’s cooking up homemade meals, breaking a sweat, or showing off a fresh new look, she’s all about feeling her best from the inside out. Here are five of her go-to habits for maintaining a strong, confident, and glowing presence all year long.

She Takes Care Of Her Skin

De Bortoli has impressive skin. Naturally, she takes care of it on a regular basis. De Bortoli shared this video on Instagram sharing her skincare routine. She captioned it, “The secret to perfect skin? Here is my step by step routine! ✨💦🎀 What product can you absolutely not live without?”

She Changed Her Hair Color

De Bortoli recently changed her hair color. She explained why in the caption of this Instagram post. “The good thing about this color is that it does not require frequent touch-ups and it easily adapts to natural hair growth, it is versatile and can enhance any body and face shape 🧡for those who are tired of blonde or brown, bronde is the solution to change harmony without distortion 🤍for those who have a fair complexion, the most golden tone is recommended 🤎 for the dark complexion, on the other hand, more ash brown ❤️ 🔥what can I say... For me the bronde conquered, and what do you think?”

She Cooks

De Bortoli likes to cook, and she was taught to do so by her grandmother. She shared this video on Instagram of herself and her grandmother cooking together. De Bortoli captioned it, “Grandparents are wealth in society, my grandmother loves to cook and do it with her since I was a child. She has always inspired my creativity, patience, discipline and order but above all traditions, history, and the concreteness of nature's gifts. The greatest teaching my grandparents passed on to me is respect for people, the environment, animals and the kitchen... Today together we made Carnival Frittelle, an easy, quick dessert that adults and kids love. The ingredients are few and simple (but of high quality) and, trust me, the result is guaranteed: nice round but above all soft and tasty.”

She Works Her Abs

De Bortoli shared this video of herself working out on Instagram. In it, she is seen doing core exercises like sit-ups. Core exercises are extremely important. The Mayo Clinic says, “Strong core muscles make it easier to do many activities. When your core muscles are strong, it's easier to swing a golf club, get a glass from the top shelf and bend down to tie your shoes. Strong core muscles help athletes, such as runners. That's because weak core muscles can lead to more fatigue, less endurance and injuries.”

She Works Out With Others

In the previous Instagram video, De Bortoli is seen working out with a friend. Better Health says that this has a lot of benefits. “You’re less likely to get bored when you have a workout buddy, especially a friend. While you’re catching up, having a laugh, encouraging each other, you’re also getting healthier. It’s a win-win. Chatting to a friend during exercise and breaks can help time pass quickly too. You’ll have more options as well, such as a game of tennis or squash.”

Kristin Cavallari is a reality TV and fashion icon. Since she debuted on Laguna Beach, people have clamoured for her fashion and beauty secrets. Cavallari recently shared her eye makeup secrets on Instagram, after several people asked for them. She captioned the post, “This is for the girlies in my DMs asking about this eye every time I do it. Sorry the lighting is awful. I also don’t know why the audio isn’t in sync for half of it 🫣 but here ya go 💗”

She's Less Strict With Her Diet

Cavallari has written several cookbooks, and they have changed as her diet has changed. While promoting her book, Truly Simple with EatingWell, she revealed that her diet is less strict. “I've gotten to a point in my life where not everything has to be so perfect anymore,” Cavallari said. “I used to be so strict about what I was putting in my body. I'm still very healthy and very conscious of it, but I've gotten a little bit more lax. True Roots and True Comfort had nothing ‘white’ in them: no white flour, no white sugar, no white salt. But in Truly Simple, I bend a little bit in a few of the recipes, which really reflects where I am in my life and my new way of eating. Everything is a little bit more relaxed around here now.’

She Loves Cauliflower

Cavallari tells EatingWell that she loves making foods with cauliflower. “I love cauliflower because I think it's very versatile, and there's actually a Sweet Harissa Cauliflower recipe in Truly Simple that's my absolute favorite cauliflower recipe on the planet. If you've ever been to True Food Kitchen, their cauliflower was the inspiration behind it. There's this sweet harissa dressing that's on it, and there's little chopped-up dates in it, so it has that nice balance between sweet and savory. It's the absolute best.”

She Loves Salad

Cavallari likes to make salads. She shared one of her favorite recipes with EatingWell. “This salad has a few of my favorite things: salmon (which has omega-3s and is so, so good for you), bacon (no explanation needed), avocado (healthy fats), and spicy tomatillo ranch dressing (just yum). Together, they create culinary heaven. If you aren't familiar with tomatillos, they're similar to tomatoes but are slightly less sweet and are perfect when drenched in ranch.”

She Works With A Trainer

Cavallari tells Us Weekly that a lot of her gym sessions are with her personal trainer. “He kicks my ass,” she says. “He pushes me really hard. He has me actually lifting really heavy weight, the heaviest weight I’ve ever lifted in my entire life. I feel the best I ever have. I feel like I’m the strongest I’ve ever been.”

She Shared Her Eye Makeup Trick

Cavallari shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Us Weekly. She says that consistency is one of her biggest priorities. “My goal is sort of, right now, just to maintain the muscle that I have,” she says. “I’m really petite. I have no hips. I’m just small. And so if I don’t work out for like a week or two, I feel like all my muscle goes away. So it is about consistency for me.”

Rebeca Andrade is an Olympic gymnast. She is the most decorated Olympic athlete from Brazil, having won two gold medals, three silvers, and a bronze. Andrade recently shared some highlights of her native Brazil on Instagram. In some of them, she posed in a swimsuit while wading. Andrade captioned the post, “SC-&-RS🏕️🌅❤️ Being free is a paradox. It's committing to the life you want, without running away from the work that it entails. It's building freedom every day, with conscious choices and, mainly, with the acceptance that freedom is not the absence of limits, but the autonomy to know which ones are worth it and which ones are not. Being free is being willing to carry the weight of your own life and still find it funny.”

She Swims

In her Instagram post, Andrade is seen swimming. The Cleveland Clinic says that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming takes much less of a toll on your body than, say, running or riding a bike. That’s because exercising in water lessens the impact of your body weight on your joints.”

She Does Gymnastics

Gymnastics is the main way Andrade stays in shape. British Gymnastics states that the sport has a lot of benefits. “When you take part in gymnastics, or any sport for that matter, your body releases chemicals called endorphins. These also help to trigger a positive feeling in the body which can have a positive impact on your happiness and mental wellbeing. This can help to combat feelings of anxiety and depression.”

She Prioritizes Safety

Andrade talked about her training approach in an interview with the Olympics website. She says that she and her coach prioritize her safety, and that she will skip floor sessions if she isn’t able to do it. "I talk a lot with my coach and we trust in each other. We always try to be really safe, and do floor in the correct moments. He believes in me. I'm never going to lie to not do it. So, when I really tell him that I can't do it, it's because I cannot and he always respects that.”

She Sets Goals

In her Olympics website interview, Andrade talked about her commitment and goal setting. Specifically, she talked about her goal to make the Olympic team. “The other [goal], which is the main one, is for us to qualify as a team,” Andrade said. “I think it will be very important for me, for my team, and the focus is on that, whatever happens there, the result is a consequence of our work, of our commitment.
