Devin Brugman is showing off her new do and flat abs. In a new social media post, the Monday swimwear founder and model flaunts her amazing figure in a two-piece exercise set after getting her hair done. “More volume in 2025,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “I’m on my knees,” commented one of her followers. “Absolutely fire,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Diet and Exercise

What is the secret to Devin and her BFF and Monday cofounder’s hot bodies? "It's a balance of working out and eating fresh, healthy foods and juicing. No matter where we go in the world, we don't drink too much and we don't eat too much—it's all about portion control—but if we want to eat something naughty, we will eat just a little bit. If you've been drinking and partying and not eating right, of course you're not going to feel good in a bikini," they told Harper’s Bazaar.

Coffee

Devin is a coffee drinker. Her order? A “double tall iced latte,” she told Frank Body. 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.

Cleansing Before Flights

Brugman told Molly Sims on her Lipstick On The Rim podcast that she has IBS and has to eat accordingly. “It comes on when I get anxious and flying makes me anxious, so when I fly, I cleanse. I eat really healthy and clean before a flight. The only part that sucks is that the best part of flying is drinking, so I try to balance every drink with extra water, and I always bring my own food on a flight, usually a salad,” she said.

Low Impact Workouts

Brugman revealed that when it comes to exercise, she prefers lower-impact workouts. “Food controls weight, not fitness,” Brugman explained. “I do pilates 4 times a week and I take my dog, Walter on a walk 1-2 times a day. I don’t like high-intensity workouts.”

Intermittent Fasting

Brugman also revealed on the podcast that she does intermittent fasting. “I do what works for me, and what works for me is intermittent fasting. I wake up in the morning and I’m truly not hungry. First thing in the morning, I have my espresso with iced almond milk. I eat around 1 PM and I’ll either make or order a Sweetgreen or Fresh Corn Grill. For dinner, I love salmon, veggies, or a salad,” she said.

Candice Swanepoel, the model and Victoria’s Secret Angel, hit Miami this week, and posted the swimsuit pics to prove it. In one, she had a long, tight braid and posed in a tiger-print two piece, with a neon bathing suit underneath, from her own Tropic of C line. Two fire emojis, commented fellow model Valeria Lipovetsky. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Candice Swanepoel 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. She Works With A Trainer To Learn About Her Body

Swanepoel, like many people, works with a personal trainer to keep herself in shape. She and several other Victoria’s Secret Angels work with trainer Justin Gelbrand. Swanepoel tells PopWorkouts that Gelbrand doesn’t just help her work out, he also teaches her about health and her body. “With Justin, it’s not only about getting you into shape by training, it’s everything in between. He has taught me so much about nutrition, health, and generally understanding how my body functions inside and out. For me, it’s become a total addiction.”

2. She Boxes

Swanepoel is open about her love of certain workouts, and one of those is boxing. She tells PopWorkouts, “I box, I do a lot of resistance, three or four times a week. I like that, as well as keeping fit, I can protect myself.”

3. She Practices Yoga

Another workout that Swanepoel is open about her love for is yoga. She tells PopWorkouts, “When I’m too tired to box, I do yoga. It’s good to stay flexible and learn to keep your mind quiet.” Swanepoel also tells The Cut, “I do it every time I feel overwhelmed and stressed—I try at least twice a week.”

4. She Keeps Her Workouts Fun

Swanepoel broke down some of her fitness secrets in an interview with Shape Magazine. She says that her most important secret is doing exercises that she finds fun to do. That way, she looks forward to working out, and doesn’t get bored. “My favorite exercise is something that doesn’t feel like I’m exercising at all, such as swimming in the ocean or playing paddle ball,” she says.

5. She Does Opposite Workouts

Another workout secret Swanepoel told Shape Magazine is that likes to mix up her workouts. Specifically, Swanepoel likes to do workouts that have opposite effects on her body. “For me, mixing workouts like boxing, jump rope, and basic ballet works best,” she says as an example. “Boxing works my arms and core, ballet elongates my muscles, and jumping rope is a great way to warm up before any workout.”

Hannah Eden is modeling her new clothing drop! In a new social media post the fitness model shows off her amazing body in a two-piece exercise set from her new collection. “I am SO excited about this new drop coming to Find Your Reason Apparel in a few weeks,” she captioned the photos on Instagram. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

From Parting To CrossFit

Hannah, who is from London, was a party girl during her college years, doing drugs and binge-eating. Then, she found CrossFit. "My body was so weak, I struggled through that first class," she told Women’s Health. "But I felt this enormous, total-body high afterward that didn't even come close to the effect from any horrid thing I'd been doing to myself."

Her Hybrid Workout Approach Is Clock Based

Hannah has a 28-day approach to fitness that applies science-backed principles. Her five workouts are a hybrid style of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and explosive exercises. It is clocked based, not rep based. "You won't just melt fat," says Hannah, "you'll also improve strength, endurance, range of motion, flexibility, and stability...and the best part is, you'll have fun even though you're being challenged. Because I believe if your mind is bored, chances are your muscles are too."

She's Very Engaged

Hannah is all about engagement and is very active on her Facebook page. "I read it every night before bed and cry my eyes out. Seeing all these strangers come together with one goal—to better themselves through fitness—has changed my life,” she says. “They have created such a safe space where they are not ashamed; they share the real, raw truths behind their drive for fitness, whether they're seeking support or wanting to help others."

Swimming

Hannah enjoys swimming. Here she is going for a 30-minute swim in the ocean. Swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity, according to the CDC. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, there are multiple studies supporting the mental health benefits of swimming as well.

Her Nutrition Is 90 Percent On Point

“There is no secret to staying lean all year round. I practice what I preach,” Hannah wrote in a Facebook Post about her diet. “I show up day after day and ask people to live a fit and healthy lifestyle... I feel like it is my absolute responsibility to do the same. I can't expect someone to do something if I don't do it myself! My nutrition is on point 90% of the week, I eat fresh REAL clean food, I exercise 6 days a week with a solid day of recovery. This is what I do for a living, that doesn't mean I am working out for hours a day... I spend one QUALITY hour of demanding more of myself and pushing my body past it's limits (safely). Sugar is the devil and laziness will kill you. Live a healthy, happy, and active life... then just WATCH what unfolds.”

Michelle Lewin, a renowned fitness model, continues to impress fans with her incredible physique and dedication to health and wellness. Recently, she shared a mirror selfie on Instagram Stories, showing off her chiseled abs in a sleek grey workout set. Known for her intense fitness routines, balanced diet, and disciplined lifestyle, Michelle incorporates a mix of cardio, strength training, and self-motivation to maintain her fitness.

Walking

Michelle makes sure to get her steps in. You can usually find her walking around Miami. 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.

Motivation in the Mirror

What motivates Michelle? “I would say the mirror. There’s nothing more motivating than when you find a new vein! Am I crazy? Probably, but it’s true! Progress is what motivates me to keep pushing harder and not give up. Also it’s extremely motivating to have so many female fans,” she told Simply Shredded.

Snack 1: Stuffed avocado tacos or tuna tartar

Lunch: Cashew chicken lettuce wraps or noodles with creamy avocado pesto

Snack 2: Peruvian ceviche or yogurt protein cups

Cardio for Weight Loss

To “cut down” or lose weight, do lots of cardio, advises Michelle. “I just love to sweat like a maniac. So what ever I feel like: Stair Master, Rollerblading around South Beach Miami or Spinning classes. I keep the intensity high and make sure that I am always pushing my hardest,” she said.

Maureen Blanquisco is modeling workout clothes. In a new social media post the IFBB contestant shows off her incredible body in a blue exercise set, driving her followers wild. “To all my baddies out there! This color makes your tan complexion POP,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “So gorgeous 🩷🥰” commented one. “OKKKAAAY SLAAY SLAAY,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. Swimming

When Maureen was younger she was a swimmer. “I always loved competing and performing. I usually call it “performing” instead of competing. Swimming was an individual sport. If I wanted to win, it all depended on me. I never liked depending on a team. If we lost because of them, I would get very frustrated,” she told Muscular Development.

2. Gymnastics and Cheerleading

She then moved on to gymnastics and cheerleading. “Cheerleading was fine until one time we fell during a stunt, and it wasn’t my fault. I said, I think I work better alone,” this is when she discovered weights. “I started lifting weights at age 18. That’s around the time you want to look and feel good, putting on makeup. I was doing fitness training anyway, so I started to look for something I could do competitively that fit that. I had always wanted to compete in beauty pageants, but at 5 feet tall I was too short. Then I saw the Bikini Olympia on YouTube, and the woman who stuck out to me the most was India Paulino. She was my first idol! I thought it looked so cool. The women looked amazing, and this was the closest thing to a beauty pageant I could do. I thought I could just go compete in the Olympia. I had no idea you have to turn pro first, then qualify, the whole long process. But in my head, I only had one goal, to go to the Olympia.”

3. Here Is How She Preps for Shows

“I started prepping for the Olympia right after the Boston Pro in March, so that was seven months. It was a very chill prep because I was eating clean, but I was eating more than ever in a prep. I was still dieting, but it was more calories, and I did have one cheat meal a week. Now I see this is the best approach for me: a longer prep but with more food,” Maureen said.

4. Her “Breaks” Involve Cardio

When she does go on vacation, she still exercises. “I did go on vacation to Hawaii with my partner the week after the Olympia. That was on my bucket list. I did cardio every day, but I took five days off from weights. I had a couple of treats, but nothing crazy,” she says.

5. She Doesn’t “Gain Too Much” During the Offseason

Marueen avoids overindulging in the off season. “I have a very clear mindset that if I gain too much, it will be a lot harder for me,” she told Muscle & Fitness. “In Bikini, it’s all about condition, and while you could be ‘too’ hard, you certainly can’t be soft, either.”

Ana Zelu is a professional model and social media influencer. She is known for her content in nature. Zelu recently shared a post on Instagram of herself on a surfboard in the ocean. She captioned it, “Yesterday was such a fun shoot, I just had to share these with you 🤍 🛥️But picture number #4?? That photobomb totally got me 😂 Which picture is your favorite ?🌊”

She Swims

As you can see from her post, Zelu likes to swim. The Mayo Clinic states that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming is often touted as a great workout for all ages, offering benefits not only for the body, but also for the mind. As a form of exercise, swimming keeps your heart rate up and builds muscle strength. It also can be a great form of stress relief.”

She Doesn't Compare Herself to Others

Zelu shares a lot of her thoughts on Instagram. In this post, she talked about no longer comparing herself to others. “Dear Diary 💭📝, Today’s contemplation led me to a profound understanding of the detrimental impact comparison has on our lives. It’s like a silent intruder, subtly creeping into our thoughts and poisoning our perception of ourselves and others. It’s a universal struggle, one that weighs heavily on the hearts of many. I’ve come to realize that comparison is the ultimate thief of joy. It robs us of our ability to appreciate our own journey and achievements, as we constantly measure ourselves against an idealized version of others. I’ve resolved to break free from its grasp. We should choose to celebrate our own unique path, recognizing that each step forward is a triumph in itself. Rather than fixating on external benchmarks set by others, I’m focusing on personal growth and development. Whether it’s through learning new skills, cultivating gratitude, or simply practicing self-compassion, every effort counts.”

She Hikes

Zelu is seen on a hike in the previous Instagram post. Harvard Health states that hiking is very beneficial. “Like brisk walking, hiking is a good way to improve your cardiovascular fitness, particularly if your route includes some hills, which will force your heart to work harder. Taking a hike on the slightly uneven surface of a trail also provides a natural way to engage the core muscles in your torso and to hone your balance skills.”

She’s Resilient

Resilience is another important thing to Zelu. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “Dear Diary 💭📝, I witnessed something truly remarkable that touched my heart deeply. It’s amazing how people can go through the toughest storms in life and yet remain gentle, patient, and kind. I saw someone who faced challenges that would break most people, yet they chose to respond with grace and humility. Their ability to stay calm and compassionate in the face of adversity is nothing short of admirable. It made me realize the beauty of resilience – the strength to keep going even when life throws its hardest punches. These individuals not only endure the storms but also emerge from them with a spirit that shines brighter than before. Their example reminds me of the power of kindness and the importance of staying true to oneself, even in the darkest of times. It’s a reminder that even in the midst of chaos, there is beauty to be found 💕🫶”

She’s Accepted Herself

Zelu talked about the importance of acceptance in this Instagram post’s caption. “Dear Diary 💭📝, Today has been a rollercoaster of emotions, but amidst it all, I feel like I’ve taken a step closer to the right direction. Letting go of the past is like shedding a heavy coat I’ve been carrying for far too long. It’s not easy to release the memories, the pain, the regrets, but today, I made a choice to loosen the grip they had on me. It’s like taking a deep breath after being underwater for too long—refreshing and liberating. Forgiving myself has been a journey filled with tears and moments of self-doubt. But today, I finally understood that I deserve the same forgiveness and understanding I give to others. It’s like giving myself a warm hug, wrapping myself in kindness and acceptance.”

Pagani likes to do Pilates to keep herself in shape. She is seen doing exercises on a reformer in this Instagram video. According to The Cleveland Clinic, Pilates has a lot of benefits. “There’s quite a bit of stretching in Pilates — which translates to improved flexibility. In addition to expanding the range of activities you can do, flexibility may protect you from injury, help your muscles relax and help you retain both mobility and range of motion as you get older.”

She Likes Sweet Potatoes

Pagani makes sure to eat healthy. In the previous Instagram video, she is seen cutting up sweet potatoes.

She Does Squats

She Strength Trains

In the previous Instagram video, Pagani is seen doing a lot of strength training exercises. Strength training has a lot of benefits. The Mayo Clinic states, “Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

She Boxes

It can strengthen bones and muscles, burn more calories, and lift mood. Aerobics can also boost your endurance, which helps you climb a flight of stairs or walk farther.”

Regular exercise and a healthy diet can bring many benefits, including more energy, happiness, health, and even a longer life. It's something we all know but we always make excuses for. So hopefully you can start moving your body little by little and eat a little better and obviously enjoy something delicious on the weekends 😋.”

In the previous Instagram video, Viciconte is seen doing squats. Allina Health reports that squats are very beneficial to do. “The squat is one of the all-around best exercises to do for your lower body. It strengthens and tones muscles in your thighs, butt and calves and improves posture, balance, flexibility and inner core strength. Squatting also improves bone mineral density to keep your bones strong. Include squats in your exercise routine two to three days a week to reap the benefits from this dynamite move.”

Viciconte is also seen doing hip thrusts in her Instagram video. Gymless states that the exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Hip thrusts, as a compound movement, aid in increasing lower body strength and power, enhancing athletic abilities such as running, jumping, and powerlifting. By strengthening the posterior chain muscles, you can enhance your posture and lower the risk of back pain and muscle strain. Strong glutes and hamstrings contribute to hip and knee stability, minimizing injury risks in sports and daily life.”

Viciconte is seen using a stationary bike in the previous Instagram video. Doing this can help strengthen your muscles. Penn State PRO Wellness explained, “Riding a stationary bike can help build strength in your legs and lower body, especially if you use a higher resistance. The pedaling action can help strengthen your calves, hamstrings, and quadriceps. Additionally, it can work the muscles in your core, back, and glutes. If you use a bicycle with handles, you’ll also be able to work your upper body muscles, including your biceps, triceps, and shoulders.”

She Runs

Viciconte shared this Instagram video of herself working out. In it, she is seen doing running exercises. Viciconte captioned it, “When we exercise, our body releases endorphin, a natural substance produced by the brain during and after physical activity. The release of endorphin, also known as the 'joy hormone', helps you relax, reduces stress, anxiety and improves your mood. I always say that it's never too late to start moving, so you know that tomorrow you have no excuse 💪🏻”
