In this Instagram live, Davis is seen cooking seafood. According to Harvard Health, cooking has a lot of benefits. “Research is turning to studying the value of nutrition programs that include cooking instruction. These programs have been shown to help people adhere to a healthier diet, eat smaller portions, and lose weight — improvements that lasted as long as a year after the study ended. These programs can even help patients with type 2 diabetes to eat healthier, lower blood pressures and blood sugars, and lose weight. Hard to believe it, but time in the kitchen can be as valuable as medication for some people with diabetes.”

2. She Does Workouts Correctly

Josie.Davis.4Josie Davis/Instagram

Davis shares a lot of workout secrets on Instagram. She makes sure to do workouts correctly, so she doesn’t injure herself. In this video, Davis is seen using the thigh press machine at the gym.

4. She Works Her Lower Body

5. She Strength Trains

Josie.Davis.5Josie Davis/Instagram

As you can see in the previous Instagram post, Davis loves to strength train. The Mayo Clinic states that strength training has a lot of health benefits. “Strength training can help you manage or lose weight, and it can increase your metabolism to help you burn more calories…Strength training can reduce the signs and symptoms of many chronic conditions, such as arthritis, back pain, obesity, heart disease, depression and diabetes.”

Courtney Hope is not just a successful actress known for her role on The Young & The Restless, but she's also serious about her fitness routine. Recently, she hit the gym to work on her glutes, sharing her impressive progress with her fans on Instagram. “315lb today on glutes😅🤭! New limits every week!” she proudly captioned a video showing off her workout, where she thanked her trainer, adding, “If you’re looking for a trainer, mine takes the cake (🎂 or builds it 😝)." With the help of a personal trainer, Courtney is constantly pushing her limits, showing that her dedication to fitness is just as strong as her passion for acting.


1. She Works With A Trainer

As she mentioned in her Instagram post’s caption, Hope uses a personal trainer to help her stay in shape. ACE Fitness states that working with a personal trainer has a lot of benefits. “When it comes to fitness, everyone is different. Your unique body mechanics, experience, goals, fitness level, likes and dislikes can guide your trainer in creating a plan that is specific to your needs. With a program that fits, you are more likely to maintain the habit and see results.”

2. She Does Hip Thrusts

Courtney Hope.4Courtney Hope/Instagram

Hope is seen doing hip thrusts in her Instagram post. Gymless states that these workouts have a lot of benefits. “Strong glutes are not only for aesthetic appeal; they serve a key functional purpose in supporting the posterior chain of muscles around the spine. Hip thrusts are also known for their capacity to develop and define glute muscles, contributing to their popularity on social media. After all, who doesn’t appreciate the look of a well-crafted pair of glutes?”

3. She Does Pull Ups

Courtney Hope.3Courtney Hope/Instagram

Hope is also seen doing pull ups in her Instagram video. NASM states that the exercise has a lot of benefits. “Pull ups use the lats, rhomboids, traps, shoulders, posterior deltoids, and brachialis. Because of the overhand grip, your lats will do the majority of the work since they are getting less help from the biceps.”

4. She Does Kickbacks

Courtney Hope.7Courtney Hope/Instagram

In her Instagram video, Hope is seen doing cable glute kickbacks with the machine. ACE Fitness reports that the exercise has a lot of benefits. “Cable machine glute kickbacks are a solid strengthening exercise that allows you to focus on one side of the body at a time, helping you effectively target the glute muscles, core, and hamstrings.”

5. She Uses Weights

Courtney Hope.6Courtney Hope/Instagram

Hope is seen using weights in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic states that using weights can be very beneficial. “It helps build muscle, strengthens bones, improves balance and prevents injuries. Often, it is helpful for people with many chronic health conditions. Overall, it helps people feel better physically and mentally.”

1. She Loves to Workout

One of the key ways Vanessa stays in sensational shape is by working out daily. “I would do seven days if I had time,” she told Parade about her workouts. She tries to get her workouts in as soon after waking up as possible. “I love starting my day off that way because sometimes I’ll have a less productive days and if I’ve gotten a workout in, then I feel like I’m accomplished no matter what.”

2. She Did Sumo Squats with a Kettlebell

Vanessa started off her mini workout video, which was first shared by her trainer in May, by perfectly executing sumo squats with a kettlebell. The compound exercise is incredibly effective, forcing a variety of muscles -- including glutes, quadriceps, calves -- to workout together. Clearly she was having some fun with her fitness routine, as she playfully stuck out her tongue for the camera.

3. She Did a Side Squat with Resistance Band and Medicine Ball

In another compound exercise, Hudgens held a medicine ball while she executed a slide squat, a move made extra hard with the addition of a resistance band around her ankles.

4. She Did a Reverse Lunge to High Knee with Dumbbells

Next up, a reverse lunge to high knee with dumbbells. Another compound move, this exercise works everything to the legs and butt to abs. For the workout video, see here:

5. Vanessa Also Does a Bunch of Other Workouts

In addition to weight and strength training, Vanessa stays in shape with lots of other workouts. Pilates, Soul Cycle, hot yoga, and strength training are a few of her favorite workouts—and sometimes she even does multiple workouts a day. “Some days when I have the time, I love doing Pilates first and then going over to Soul Cycle. I love a double up!” she told Parade. “I always feel so accomplished when I double up. I’ve been going to this Pilates studio called WundaBar for years and it’s just a great deep muscle-training workout. It’s not super high intensity but I always feel it the next day.”

Odette Annable is known for her roles in You Again, Two and A Half Men, Supergirl, Walker, and Tell Me A Story. Annable and her close friend, wrestler Stacy Kiebler, met up for a workout in November, and shared an Instagram collaboration of the day. In it, they went to Pilates and did some weight training. Kiebler captioned the post, “Fill in the blank: Besties who workout together,_.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Odette Annable stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Works Out With Others

As you can see in the Instagram post, Annable likes to workout with her friends. And working out with a friend has a lot of health benefits. The CDC states, “When you and your buddy encourage each other, you’ll work harder (and get better results!). And there’s nothing wrong with a little friendly competition. It’s easier to try new things with a buddy. You may just find an activity you love, one that feels more like fun and less like a workout.”

2. She Does Pilates

As you can see from her Instagram post, Annable does Pilates to stay in shape. ACE Fitness states that doing Pilates has a lot of health benefits. “Pilates — once a niche strength, mobility, and recovery technique for dancers — has gone mainstream. The low-intensity, muscle-strengthening workout can promote flexibility, mobility, and posture. What’s more, it can set your body up to complete other more intense strength-training safely.”

3. She Uses Hyaluronic Acid

Natural,Serums.,Concept,Of,Cosmetic,Injection,Is,Hyaluronic,Acid,,Botulin,Shutterstock

Annable shared some of her skincare secrets in an interview with New Beauty. “Any product that has hyaluronic acid as one of the ingredients in it is going to be a win for me,” she says. “I have combination skin, so it’s kind of oily and dry at the same time. Hyaluronic acid just deeply hydrates my skin and helps it retain all of the moisture, which is something that I really need now, because now I’m living in a place that actually has seasons! When my skin feels the seasons switch, it kind of goes a little nuts. Kosas is my favorite lip moisturizer. It’s loaded with hyaluronic acid. I love Barbara Sturm’s Hyaluronic Acid Ampoules as well. You put them all-over your face, and you can feel your skin tighten and hydrate; I love them so much. Those are my two hero products that I could never shy away from.”

4. She Cooks

Annable tells New Beauty that she loves to cook, and that the pandemic made her want to cook more. “In a way, I think it’s a greatest form of self-care, and being in the kitchen has been quite meditative for me—even if it’s just my husband taking our daughter for a walk outside while I make the meal. I come from a Cuban family, and I’ve learned everything from my mom and my grandmother. Those recipes are still with me and I’ve been making them for my family more than I ever have before. It’s self-care and it’s self-care in the best way.”

5. She’s Confident

Annable opened up about developing self-confidence in an interview with Rose and Ivy Journal. “It’s not easy, especially in this industry, there is so much competition and rejection,” she admits. “You can compare yourself to people very easily. I didn’t feel worthy, even though I was getting all of these opportunities, I didn’t feel like I was doing enough work to feel like I should be included. It was a story I was telling myself and I was sticking to it. There was a lot of fake it till you make it. It wasn’t until recently I felt like, hold on, I am confident in what I am doing, in my talent, and who I am. I have gone through a little bit of life and turmoil, where I have experienced all of it, and I feel things in a different way than I did when I was in my 20s.”

1. She Works Out at The Dogpound

Addison regularly trains at The Dogpound, where she completes strength and weight training workouts.

Addison loves breaking a sweat with her pals, including BFF and He’s All That costar Kourtney Kardashian. During the pandemic, the two shared a workout together virtually, revealing some of the exercises responsible for their fabulous figures.

3. She Focuses on Glute Work

Baby got back, something she attributes to strenuous glute work. In her workout clip with Kourtney, she revealed the six-minute glute workout responsible for her famous backside. "I've done this butt workout so many times because it literally burns so bad but it's so good,” she told the Kourtney, perfectly executing donkey kicks, fire hydrants and fire hydrant extensions on each leg for two circuits.

4. She Is Active Outdoors

2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards - Red CarpetMatt Winkelmeyer/2021 MTV Movie and TV Awards/Getty Images

In addition to regular gym workouts, Addison stays active with outdoor activities, including skateboarding, surfing, kayaking, and hiking. "Physical activity doesn't need to be complicated. Something as simple as a daily brisk walk can help you live a healthier life," says the Mayo Clinic. "For example, regular brisk walking can help you:

  • Maintain a healthy weight and lose body fat
  • Prevent or manage various conditions, including heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, cancer and type 2 diabetes
  • Improve cardiovascular fitness."

5. She Also Does Kickboxing

Want to get into fighting shape like Addison? Try kickboxing. Earlier this year she shared a photo of herself dressed for a workout at a studio showing off UFC moves. "Burn about 350-450 calories an hour as you punch, jab, and kick your way toward better balance, flexibility, coordination, and endurance. You'll slash stress, too," says WebMD. "You'll typically take a group class, usually an hour long, at a kickboxing studio, gym, or rec center. You won't be fighting anyone (unless you're doing kickboxing moves in a martial arts class), but you'll kick and jab at the air and punching bags."

6. And of Course, She Dances

Dancing is a great cardio workout, and Addison does plenty of it. Just take a scroll through her TikTok feed to see the calorie-blasting moves that made her famous. "Regular aerobic exercise can help you live longer and healthier. After all, aerobic exercise can reduce health risks, keep excess pounds at bay, strengthen your heart and boost your mood. It can also reduce your risk of death from all causes," says the Mayo Clinic. "Healthy adults should aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week, or an equivalent combination of moderate and vigorous activity. That doesn't have to be all at one time, though. For example, brisk walking for 30 minutes, five days a week meets the guidelines. Aerobic exercise can even be done in short blocks of time, such as several walk breaks spread throughout the day. Any activity is better than none at all."

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.”
