Tammy Hembrow is working out with her sister! In a new social media post the influencer flaunts her incredibly fit figure in a belly-baring workout outfit while training with Ava Olympia Thynne. “Tag your workout bestie 🤍 mine is always one of my sisters. I swear working out with a partner is just ✨better.✨ We’re both doing @tammyfitapp 6 week challenge at the moment & feeling gooooood,” she captioned the Instagram video. How does the influencer approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


1. Meditation

Tammy gets her zen on. “Meditating really changed my life when I first really discovered its power,” she wrote in a 2021 Instagram post. “One of the first times I tried it I got into a deep meditation & had a full out of body experience completely disconnected from my physical being and there was really no looking back from there. I decided then I would dedicate my life to becoming the healthiest happiest version of myself. Meditating for even just 10 minutes a day can help relieve stress, calm your mind & clear it of negative thoughts, and help you really focus on the present 🍃 There’s no doubt in my mind meditation has helped me not just in daily life but even in my businesses & creativity.” She isn’t wrong. “When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress,” says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:

  • Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
  • Building skills to manage your stress
  • Increasing self-awareness
  • Focusing on the present
  • Reducing negative emotions
  • Increasing imagination and creativity
  • Increasing patience and tolerance
  • Lowering resting heart rate
  • Lowering resting blood pressure
  • Improving sleep quality

2. Regular Exercise

“I used to work out a lot more before having my kids but currently, I work out 3-4 times a week,” Tammy told Women’s Best. “I find this is enough for me right now because I’ve been working out consistently for years and I know my body and when to increase or decrease my calories to help with my goals.” What motivates her to exercise isn’t just her body. “I honestly feel better when I get my workout in, less sluggish and I find it easier to keep up with my kids,” she told New Idea about one of her motivations to sweat. “I honestly feel better when I get my workout in, less sluggish and I find it easier to keep up with my kids. Whether it’s a gym workout or HIIT home workout I always try to fit it in when I can.”

3. Clean Eating

“For me lean protein like chicken breast, turkey and fish, really helps, but I find that with trying to build my booty I wasn’t consuming the amount of protein I needed so supplements like protein shakes helped too,” Tammy told New Idea about her diet. “I needed to eat lots to build that area so I also ate lots of complex carbohydrates like brown rice, oatmeal, potatoes and healthy fats.” For breakfast she usually eats oatmeal, infused with protein powder. Then, post workout, a protein shake, “and love to eat fish, chicken, turkey, beans and vegetables,” she adds. “I’ve been trying to cut back on meat lately which I have found difficult. I usually end my day with oats and protein again. Boring I know!” She eats small, frequent meals. “I eat every two to three hours,” she told New Idea.

4. Changing Her Diet Up

Tammy adapts her diet to her goals. “I don’t like to limit myself too much if I’m working towards a specific goal. For example, if I want to reduce my weight, I will choose to switch to a weight loss meal plan which involves eating fewer calories. Lucky, I have low and high-calorie plans in my App Tammy Fit so I usually follow the recipes in there and switch between regular, vegetarian and sometimes vegan,” she told Women’s Best.

5. Cheat Meals

While she eats clean most of the time, Tammy allows herself cheat meals, “and they’re usually on the weekend,” she confessed to Women’s Best. “My favorite cheat meal right now is spicy chicken wings.”

Australian YouTube influencer and fitness guru Tammy Hembrow offered recent advice about working out in a gym. “If they're not putting in the effort. If they're not doing the work out slow and controlled and focusing on mind muscle control,” you’re not going to get much out of that workout,” Hembrow posted. Just this week she posted a photo of her having the “funnest day with the funnest humans.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see five ways Tammy Hembrow 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 Out Frequently

Hembrow works out hard to maintain her trim physique. She trains three to five days a week, lifting weights and doing cardio. It's generally recommended to aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week. This can be broken down into sessions of any length, and it's generally best to spread the workouts out over the week rather than trying to do them all in one or two sessions. However, the specific amount of exercise that's right for you will depend on your age, fitness level, and other factors. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider or a fitness professional to determine the best exercise plan for your individual needs.

2. She Eats Protein

“For me lean protein like chicken breast, turkey and fish, really helps, but I find that with trying to build my booty I wasn’t consuming the amount of protein I needed so supplements like protein shakes helped too,” Hembrow said. Lean proteins, such as those found in chicken, turkey, fish, and beans, are an important part of a healthy diet. They provide a range of benefits, including:

  1. Building and repairing tissues: Protein is a key component of many tissues in the body, including skin, hair, and muscles. Consuming enough protein can help your body repair and rebuild tissues after injury or surgery.
  2. Maintaining muscle mass: Protein is important for maintaining and building muscle mass, especially as we age. This can help with weight management and physical function.
  3. Supporting immune function: Protein is involved in the production of immune system cells, and consuming enough protein may help support a healthy immune system.

3. She Does High-Intensity Training

“I will often do some workouts from my at home booty program,” Hembrow said. “You only need dumbbells, or I will do a [high-intensity interval training] workout in the lounge room.” High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a type of exercise that involves short bursts of intense activity followed by periods of rest or lower-intensity activity. HIIT workouts can be adapted to suit a wide range of fitness levels and can be done with a variety of exercises, including cardio, strength training, and functional movement. One of the key benefits of HIIT is that it can be an efficient and effective way to improve cardiovascular fitness and burn calories. Research suggests that HIIT may be more effective at improving cardiovascular fitness than steady-state exercise, and it may also have other health benefits, such as improving insulin sensitivity and reducing body fat. HIIT workouts can vary in length and intensity, but they typically involve performing an exercise at maximum effort for a short period of time (such as 30 seconds to a few minutes) followed by a period of rest or lower-intensity activity (such as jogging or walking). This cycle is repeated a number of times, and the overall workout can last anywhere from a few minutes to an hour or more, depending on the specific program.

4. She Eats Frequently and Enjoys Protein Shakes

“I eat every two to three hours,” Hembrow said. “For breakfast I usually eat oats with Women’s Best protein powder. I always have protein shakes after my workouts and love to eat fish, chicken, turkey, beans and vegetables.” The best protein shake for you will depend on your individual needs and goals. Here are a few things to consider when choosing a protein shake:

  1. Protein source: Protein shakes are made with a variety of protein sources, such as whey, casein, soy, pea, and rice. Some people may prefer one source over others based on personal preference or dietary restrictions.
  2. Amount of protein: Protein shakes can contain different amounts of protein per serving, ranging from as little as 5 grams to as much as 30 grams or more. The amount of protein you need will depend on your age, sex, weight, and activity level.
  3. Other ingredients: Protein shakes can contain a range of other ingredients, such as carbs, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Consider what other nutrients you need and whether the shake you're considering provides them.
  4. Taste: Protein shakes can come in a variety of flavors, so choose one that you enjoy and that you'll be more likely to drink regularly.

“I needed to eat lots to build that area, so I also ate lots of complex carbohydrates like brown rice, oatmeal, potatoes and healthy fats,” Hembrow said. Carbs can affect blood sugar, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Eating a lot can raise blood sugar levels, which puts you at risk for diabetes. But eating too few carbs can have the opposite effect, raising the risk of hypoglycemia, which is bad for your health.

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.

Amanda Tress is a very successful fitness trainer. She recently announced her new 2025 program on Instagram. Tress captioned the post, “Did someone say ADVANCED workouts for 2025?! For those of you who are straight up ATHLETES because you have been crushing the FWTFL for years… we will have an ADVANCED workout track for you starting January 6! It’s about to get 👑🔥🚀”

She Does Burpees

Tress shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. As a part of her 12 Days of Fitmas series, she shared a different workout each day on her page. In this video, Tress is seen doing burpees. The Cleveland Clinic states that burpees have a lot of benefits. “Burpees are brutally efficient as a workout tool, meshing cardio and strength training into an extremely high-intensity package. In seven simple movements, the exercise works your body from top to bottom. It’s a continuous-movement activity that uses the full musculature of your body, says exercise physiologist Griffin Nykor, RKin, CPT.”

She Does Squats

Another exercise Tress did in her 12 Days of Fitmas series is squats. According to Piedmont, squats have a lot of benefits. “Squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back. A squat has more overall benefits than, say, a bicep curl, which strengthens an isolated area.”

She Doesn't't Weigh Herself

In the caption of this Instagram post, Tress revealed that she doesn’t weigh herself or own a scale. “Why I don’t own a scale. I threw away my scale over a decade ago and I don’t often talk about why. I even banned ‘weigh ins’ through the FASTer Way when I first launched it because I feel so strongly that daily weigh-ins are not a good representation of progress and, in fact, can be a de-motivator. Over time, I’ve learned that true wellness isn’t found in numbers on a scale. Instead, I track my health and fitness through things that actually matter to me: 💪🏻Getting stronger in my lifts and seeing muscle definition develop 👕 How my clothes fit and feel ⚡ My daily energy levels 😴 Quality of sleep 🧘♀️ How my body feels - no bloating, moving well. Daily weigh-ins used to be demotivating and didn’t reflect the real progress I was making in strength and overall health. Plus the scale can’t measure confidence, strength, or how great it feels to crush a workout.”

She Does Deadlifts

Tress likes to do deadlifts to keep herself in shape. She is seen doing them in this workout video on Instagram. Tress captioned it, “I tweaked my back doing deadlifts 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 We shall see how this pans out trying to lug 5 kids around this weekend. 😝 I worked around it and still got in a great workout. Comment YES below if you crushed leg day!!!”

She Does Lunges

Tress shared some more of her favorite lower body workouts in this Instagram video with a friend. One exercise she is seen doing in it is lunges. Tress captioned the post, “Comment YES below if you crushed leg day!! Oh my word. My legs are smoked. 🙌🏻👑🎄PS Emma is the best workout buddy and she’s getting so strong.”

Jasmine Tookes is a model, and she’s best known for being a Victoria’s Secret Angel. Tookes and her fellow Angel, Josephine Skriver, have a clothing line called Joja. Both of them often model clothing from the line on Instagram. Tookes shared a set of Instagram stories this week of herself wearing a white Joja outfit. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Jasmine Tookes stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Works Her Entire Body

Tookes shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar. She says that she makes sure to work her entire body. "I switch it up. I'll do one day with legs and abs, lower body. The next day I will do an upper body day. And then one day I always dedicate to my butt. A whole butt day for like an hour. And then I'll take a break on one day. And then the next day I do a full body. Then I am off the rest of the days."

2. She Eats A Lot Of Protein

Glass,With,Protein,Shake,,Jug,Of,Milk,And,Powder,OnShutterstock

Tookes eats a lot of protein, especially when she’s working out."I definitely like to have something in my stomach before I go, otherwise I'll get nauseous and have no energy at all,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “I'll have a protein shake or, I normally workout in the morning, so I'll have a breakfast sandwich or omelet. After a workout I love to have a lot of protein like grilled chicken, veggies, and rice. Or steak, if it's in the evening."

3. She Works Out With Others

Tookes likes to workout with her fellow Victoria’s Secret Angels. She tells Harper’s Bazaar that this helps motivate her. "Oh my god, it's so hard. I think the easiest way to motivate myself is to go with a friend. Josephine, for example, we workout together all the time. She texts me like, 'Hey want to go to Dogpound?" And you like, can't say no. You feel like, crap! If she's going I gotta go. You have to find a friend to motivate you."

4. She Mixes Up Her Workouts

Jasmine.Tookes.1Jasmine Tookes/Instagram

Tookes likes to mix-up her workouts. She tells Harper’s Bazaar that she goes to different fitness classes. "I like to try out different classes in different cities. For example in California I go to a place called The Studio MDR, which is a pilates class. Or I'll do Physique 57, which I know is all-over. That's one of my favorite barre classes.”

5. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Jasmine.Tookes.2Jasmine Tookes/Instagram

Tookes has amazing skin. She shared her routine in an interview with Grazia. “I’ve really learned that the routine and order in which I apply my products is such a game-changer in getting healthy, glowy skin. I’ve been incorporating Hourglass’s new Equilibrium skincare collection for over a month and I’ve really seen the difference. To start, I take a towel and soak it in hot water. I then just hold the towel on my face, warming up my skin before I start my routine. I wash my face with the Equilibrium Rebalancing Cream Cleanser. The texture is rich and creamy and I love that it leaves my skin feeling clean and plump, and not stripped. I follow that with the Equilibrium Restoring Essence, which is the perfect primer because it’s so soothing and conditioning. It’s particularly great if I’m on-the-go and need an extra boost of hydration. For my moisturizer, depending on how my skin is feeling that day I will either use Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream or Kora Organics Noni Face Oil.”

So, how does she stay in such incredible shape? From strength training to boxing, here’s a look at her go-to fitness moves.

She Strength Trains

In her Instagram post, Sharvari is seen doing a strength training exercise. The Mayo Clinic says that strength training has a lot of benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories. 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 Does Yoga

Sharvari shares a lot of her favorite workouts on Instagram. One thing she likes to do is yoga. Sharvari posted this video of herself doing poses on her page. John Hopkins Medicine states that yoga is very beneficial. “Regular yoga practice may reduce levels of stress and body-wide inflammation, contributing to healthier hearts. Several of the factors contributing to heart disease, including high blood pressure and excess weight, can also be addressed through yoga.”

She Plays Padel

Sharvari likes to play padel to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself on the court. Playing padel has a lot of health benefits. Everybody Health & Leisure says, “It improves cardiovascular fitness, helps to build strength and endurance, enhances coordination and promotes overall physical and mental well-being. Not to mention, it’s a fantastic way to burn calories.”

She Boxes

Another thing that Sharvari does to keep herself in shape is box. She first picked this up when training for the film, Vedaa. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself punching a bag. Sharvari captioned the post, “BEAST MODE on for Vedaa! ⚠️☠️🥊 Took up boxing to become Vedaa...

She captioned the post, “Decided to seas the day!” Better Health says that running is very beneficial. “Regular running or jogging offers many health benefits.

Natasa Stankovic in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Wednesday Challenge"

Stankovic shares her go-to workout moves, from squats to lunges, cardio, Pilates, and strength training.

Entertainment India - March 2023

Natasa Stankovic isn’t just a content creator—she’s a fitness inspiration. Known for sharing intense workout sessions on Instagram, she keeps her followers motivated with creative exercise challenges and dynamic routines.

In her latest post, Stankovic teamed up with Aleksandar Illic for a lower body blast, pushing through variations of squats and lunges. Dressed in a sleek two-piece workout set, she captioned the session, “Wednesday challenge,” proving that fitness is all about consistency and fun.

So, how does she maintain her lean, strong physique? From strength training to Pilates, here’s a look at Stankovic’s go-to workout moves.

She Does Squats

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

She Does Cardio

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

She Does Pilates

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial. The Cleveland Clinic says, “One of the reasons Pilates is such a good workout is that it specifically focuses on building core strength.”

She Strength Trains

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health 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.”

Kim French in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Real Results" Workout

Learn how she sculpts her powerhouse physique with deadlifts, lunges, squats, and more.

Kim French is more than just a personal trainer—she’s a fitness coach who empowers thousands through her Believe App and Instagram workouts. Known for her structured, effective home training plans, she proves that you don’t need a gym full of heavy weights to build serious strength.

In a recent Instagram post, French shared a glimpse of her at-home training, reminding followers that smart training delivers "REAL results." Rocking a sleek two-piece workout set, she showcased some of her go-to exercises, emphasizing that with the right strategy, anyone can see progress.

So what’s in her routine? From deadlifts to hip thrusts, here’s how French sculpts her powerhouse physique.

She Does Deadlifts

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

She Does Lunges

Another exercise that French is seen doing in her Instagram post is lunges. NASM says that they are very beneficial. “The lunge is a versatile, simple and effective movement for lower body training. Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

She Does Squats

French is seen doing squats in her Instagram video. According to The Cleveland Clinic, squats are very beneficial. “Here’s a quick look at the many benefits of squats, also known as bodyweight squats or air squats: Works major muscle groups. Burns calories. Strengthens your core. Improves lower body strength. Enhances stability and balance. Betters your posture.”

She Does Hamstring Curls

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
