Sophie Grace Holmes is getting her sweat on in the morning – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the marathon runner shows off her svelte figure wearing a sports bra and leggings in a mirror selfie. “Gym session this morning,” she wrote across the Instagram Stories image. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.


She Has Cystic Fibrosis

Sophie was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at four months old and was told she might not live past 16.“Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that affects your lungs and digestive system, inherited from birth - although I was actually diagnosed very late,” she told Women’s Health. She added to Strava that she ended up in the hospital at 19 and was told by doctors she "only had a couple of years to live,” she said. “I think this is where the power of naivety can sometimes kick in. I sat there in the hospital thinking ‘I don’t believe you. I don’t have time to die. There are all these things I want to do with my life.’”

Running "Saved My Life" She Says

“Running saved my life. If I hadn’t gone on my journey and decided to challenge myself through running in different ways, who knows whether or not I’d still be here today,” Sophie told Strava. “I believe fitness saved my life, because it’s given me experiences and memories, and it’s also shown me what I am capable of. My happiest times and my happiest memories have been the ones where I've been leaning into the most discomfort.”

Goal Setting

Sophie recently revealed that her goal for 2025 is to complete “12 challenges in 12 months,” she wrote in a post. “I thrive and love big challenges but next year is about being able to achieve smaller but just as significant goals throughout the year to fit into life and staying fit and strong simply say YES to anything. The main goal being I want to see how fast and strong of a runner I can become and add in some different types of adventure to take me back to the mountains, trying new things to push me out of my comfort zone and with few things set already and a dream race in place which I’ll talk about soon its turning into an incredible year. And Also the building blocks to get as strong as I can ready for the big challenge I want to do after…I love setting goals.”

Swimming

As part of her workout split, which she shared on Instagram, Sophie swims. “Weeks out from @newyorkcity_marathon,” she wrote. Why does she swim? “I swim for recovery and to reduce impact plus benefits for my engine and lungs for running,” she said in the post. She does two 30 minute swims per week. 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.

Hiking

  • Building stronger muscles and bones
  • Improving your sense of balance
  • Improving your heart health
  • Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems

Steph Claire Smith is a fitness influencer, podcaster, and businesswoman. She is the founder of the Kic app and hosts the KICPOD podcast. Smith is expecting her second child and shared some of her favorite pregnancy exercises on Instagram. She captioned the post, “🤰💪 Pregnancy-friendly & beginner gym workout! Looking for a safe, effective, and beginner-friendly workout to keep you moving during pregnancy or if you’re just starting out? We’ve got you covered! 🌟”

Strength Trains

In her Instagram video, Smith is seen strength training. The Mayo Clinic states that strength training has a lot of benefits. “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's Confident In Herself

Smith is all about being confident in herself. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “I can be a mum, a business woman, and a swimwear / lingerie model simultaneously. Here is a throwback for you of just a few examples of what I used to post in my feed. So why don’t I do it now? Please don’t for a second think it’s because I don’t think that I should or that I don’t feel sexy anymore.”

She Ignores The Haters

Keyboard,Keys,Form,The,Word,Haters,On,Red,Electric,CircuitShutterstock

Smith doesn’t let judgemental comments bring her down. She talked about this in the caption of the previous Instagram post. “I will admit, external judgment made me sway away from posting this kind of content in the past when it came to being taken seriously in the business world (even though I never really agreed with it)… and sure, there have been phases throughout motherhood where I haven’t felt super sexy or I’ve questioned what’s ’appropriate’. But where I’ve got to is realizing that what one person is comfortable with, can be completely different to someone else, and that I am very, very comfortable with tapping into I suppose ‘the old Steph’ … as really she’s just Steph. I’m still that person. And the only reason you don’t see this content as much on my page anymore is because I’m not doing anywhere near the amount of modeling I used to and when I am it’s not always this vibe anymore. But if I could I would! And the judgment I’ve copped from strangers, mainly women, over the last few weeks as I’ve shared my body online, has really disappointed me. HOWEVER, for the hundreds of you who have flooded in, particularly today after the hilarious ‘ass DM I got, saying they Iove seeing me so comfortable in my skin and that especially as mums it’s motivating you to do the same… you’re who I’ll keep doing it for. Do not let anyone dictate what you post on your own feed - if it feels true to you, you do you.”

She Sets Goals

Smith makes sure to push herself when she works out. One way she does this is by setting goals. Smith talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “There were many points throughout my workout today where I questioned if I should just stop right there and then and walk out. And if this was because of energy levels, I would have! I think it’s important to tune into our bodies like that… But I knew I had the energy, and I’ve committed to doing three sessions a week for this challenge. I just had to get out of my own head, and stop worrying about having to regress or rest, I took the pressure off of the workout needing to look a certain way and just kept at it. I’m so glad I got it done, and I’m proud of myself for sticking to my goal!”

She Does Pull-Ups

In the previous Instagram post, Smith is seen doing pull-ups. According to NASM, these have a lot of health benefits. “Pull ups and chin ups are a multi-joint movement, meaning that they engage multiple muscle groups (lats, biceps, shoulders, and upper back). They promote overall upper body muscle development and can lead to some serious strength gains.”

Squeezing in a full-body workout isn't as challenging these days since a 15-minute gym session can be just as effective as doing an hour of exercising depending on the intensity, and Sofia Richie is crushing the total-body quick workouts. On TikTok, the daughter of singer Lionel Richie showed off five moves that keep her tone that doesn’t take up too much of her busy schedule. And just this week, she shared a photo of her growing tummy, as she’s expecting a girl. “Morning from us” she captioned it. Read on for more details on her speedy session and what fitness experts think.


1. She Starts Her Morning Off With the Workout

Sofia.richie.Grainge.1Sofia Richie Grainge/Instagram

At the beginning of the clip, Richie explains she's at home with her certified fitness and pilates trainer Elizabeth Vidor and only has 15 minutes for a workout. “I wanted to start my day off on a positive note, so let’s do a quick little workout,” Richie said at the start of the video that's been viewed 9.6 million times.

What the Expert Says: M.A. Sports Performance and USAW National Coach Jarrod Nobbe says, "The best benefit of working out in the morning is to get things moving! I love a morning workout or mindful movement session filled with mobility to wake the body and mind up. He adds, "Hitting those early morning-released endorphins can increase your mood, focus, and energy throughout the day. Also, I love starting the day by checking the box on the to-do list; positive momentum toward daily progress!"

2. Jump Rope

Sofia.richie.Grainge.2Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

The newlywed started off her workout with jump roping. She did three sets for 15 seconds each.

What the Expert Says: According to Nobbe, "Using jump rope sequences before training is an excellent method to raise the body’s internal temperature and get the blood flowing. Use this in your warm-up before mobility and activation. Plan on implementing plyometrics in your session? Jumping rope is a great low-intensity plyometrics prep movement to prepare the ankles and lower body to be elastic and transfer energy for power!

3. Medicine Ball Front Slams

Sofia.richie.Grainge.3Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

Next up Richie does weighted medicine ball slams, where she picks it up off the floor in a squat and holds it above her head before throwing it down again. It's unclear how many reps she did.

What the Expert Says: Nobbe warns, "DISCLAIMER: Only perform this movement with sand-filled med balls! Med ball front slams are a great full-body power movement. When done correctly, you’ll engage your arms, core, and leg with each slam, driving the med ball through the floor. Keep the reps low to develop ballistic, full-body power improvements" He continues, "You can use slams in your cardio sessions as well. Extending tall at the top and flexing strong to slam the ball requires many body muscles, creating an incredible opportunity for aerobic work capacity."

4. Chest Press + Glute Bridge

Sofia.richie.Grainge.4Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

After the weighted medicine ball slams, the 24-year-old does chest presses with her hips up in a bridge position as she squeezes a pilates ring between her knees.

What the Expert Says: "This movement sneaks in the lower body, posterior strength (an isometric contraction of the glutes and hamstrings) paired with the upper body pressing strength of the chest press." Nobbe explains. "I love using this movement to develop your body’s stability and strength in this all-in-one exercise. You can get creative with dumbbells, kettlebells, or even bands to vary your training week-to-week. Press the implement alternatingly in a bilateral movement, or perform one side at a time to challenge your unilateral strength and core stability."

5. Supine Oblique Bends

Sofia.richie.Grainge.5Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

For the next round, Richie quickly goes into an ab exercise called supine oblique bends where she holds a weight and alternates touching each heel to work her sides.

What the Expert Says: "Finding enough variety to train the lateral aspects of the core can be challenging," Nobbe tells us. "Look no further if you’re looking for something other than your side plank variations. Oblique side bends are a go-to option, whether standing or in a supine position shown in this video. Keep the neck and head relaxed, exhale as you bend and contract the obliques, and inhale as you return. Implementing focused breathing can fire up the core muscles."

6. Mountain Climbers

Sofia.richie.Grainge.6Sofia Richie Grainge/TikTok

Richie finishes off her brief workout with mountain climbers. “A quick and effective 15-minute workout” she captioned the TikTok.

What the Expert Says: Nobbe states, "Mountain climbers might be one of the best core exercises performed dynamically to build core strength, stability, and endurance. We want to ensure we conquer the primary plank position, bracing the core tight as we drive each knee alternating to the same-side elbow. Add them to your core routine, or implement them during a HIIT-style workout or circuit day. If used as a finisher, I would challenge you to move quickly but stay braced and tight to maintain the efficacy of the movement."

Grace Beverley is exercising – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the influencer flaunts her amazing figure in a two-piece workout set in a mirror selfie. “Spot the girl obsessed with her own business,” she captioned the Instagram Stories image. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Breakfast

Grace starts the day with a big breakfast. “I’m not a huge breakfast person in the week, but at the weekends my go-to has been the same for over a decade now: creamy mushrooms on toast,” she told Women’s Health. “My fiancé uses the Oatly cream to make it for us every weekend and it’s definitely one of the reasons I’m marrying him! It’s just the ultimate weekend “breakfast and it feels like such a treat without spiking my blood sugar too much.”

Coffee

Grace is a coffee drinker. “My go-to coffee order is an iced oat latte. Although I’m trying to cut down and now have a strict ‘no coffee after 12pm’ rule that I make the team hold me accountable to when I don’t have the willpower,” she said.

Greens Powder

“I used to take a whole load of supplements but I got fed up with spending so much each month and taking so many pills. That’s why I turned to the Shreddy team with the idea of developing a greens powder that did the job of all my supplements in one. I remember in that first meeting we thought it might not be possible, but a year (and 30 samples) later one glass of Shreddy Supergreens contains 100% NRV of my daily vitamins, pre & pro-biotics and all the vitamins and minerals I was already taking for hair and skin growth. As someone who’s all about efficiency, it’s my dream multi-tasking supplement. I drink it in the afternoon instead of my coffee and it really helps me avoid that mid-afternoon crash I always used to get,” Grace told Women’s Health.

Sleep

Grace prioritizes her sleep. “I wear an Oura ring to track my sleep, so I know how far to push myself on a particular day as my schedule is usually pretty back-to-back. It usually knows when I’m getting run down before I do,” she told Women’s Health. “I try my absolute best to get 8 hours of sleep a night, after years of trying to push it, I now know that 8 hours is what I need to be good at my job and maintain my schedule across a week. When heading to bed, I make sure to read at least 10 pages of a fiction book. I find it really helps me to separate my brain from work mode and improves the quality of my sleep as a whole.”

HIIT Workouts

Grace sticks to short but effective workouts.”When I moved to London, I struggled to fit everything in and barely worked out at all. It sounds like a scammy email, but the ‘simple trick’ that changed my life was switching to just 10 or 20-minute workouts – it’s great for my mental health and fitness, but short enough that I never get bored,” she told Women’s Health. “That’s what inspired me to create the Shreddy 102 and Shreddy 202 HIIT guides. I now do one of those workouts four days a week, as well as two weight- lifting sessions – I’m lucky enough to have a home gym.”

Track Athlete Eilish McColgan Has One of Her "Best Sessions"

From running marathons to pool exercises, she does it all!

Eilish McColgan is a successful track athlete. She has won a gold and a silver medal at the Commonwealth Games, two silvers and a bronze at the European Championships, and a bronze at the European Indoor Championships. McColgan recently shared a set of photos on Instagram of herself running. She captioned it, “A very good day at the oval office! 🔥💪Surprised myself yesterday with one of my best sessions in months... AND on day 1 of my cycle.”

She Runs

Running is one of the things that McColgan does to keep herself in shape. She shared this post on Instagram of herself running a marathon. She captioned it, “Last race of 2024 in the bag! 💰 (Race recap) Battled for 4th place today in what was by far the toughest race I've ever done! It took a LOT of mental strength to finish, with my legs hitting a brick wall around 18km... but it helped that I was catching and passing some of the other elite women who had started to suffer, too! Delhi was hit with a huge spike in humidity and pollution levels in the days leading into the race. The air was SO thick. Never experienced anything quite like it! 🤣 Breathing was already hard through the first 5km, which made it a long slog to the finish line. 🫁I decided very early on I was going to run on my own and at my own pace, letting the main pack go ahead. Trying to pick off as many people as I could over the 2nd half. I think someone said I was around 10th at halfway, but in all honesty, I didn't have a clue. I just kept trying to catch and pass the next person. I was actually pretty gutted to find out I was only a few seconds off the podium in the end!”

She Does Activation Exercises

McColgan shared some of her favorite activation exercises in this Instagram video. In it, she is seen doing things with resistance bands and exercises like pogo jumps and step ups. McColgan captioned it, “Here's some of my favourite activation exercises for endurance runners 🏋🏼♀️The winter months tend to be heavily focused on longer, slower endurance work, so I like to throw in some activation & conditioning work the evening before key interval sessions. 🔑It helps to keep my fast twitch muscles firing and stops me from getting too sluggish and heavy legged from all the additional running. 🏃🏼♀️💨”

She Hikes

McColgan likes to hike to keep herself in shape. She shared this post on Instagram of herself hiking in Vietnam. McColgan captioned it, “What a day in HaLong Bay! 😍🫶After eating our way around Hanoi, we headed out to 'sea' the sights... 😜Vietnam so far has been a dream. Can't believe we've waited this long to visit - it's certainly lived up to the hype!! 🇻🇳”

She Does Pool Exercises

McColgan likes to do pool exercises. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing things like high knees and squats in the water. McColgan captioned it, “Not your typical pool day! 😜 🏊♀️👙Training is a little different at the moment... Instead of running, we are spending time in the gym building strength and addressing weakness on my left side. The goal with rehab is to progress things gradually every week, and this pool session does just that - keeping my ligaments and tendons moving. I'll try to share more of my rehab videos over the next few weeks! 💪”

She Pushes Herself

McColgan makes sure to push herself when she trains. She talked about this in the caption of her Instagram post. “Female athletes have it touuuuugh.. so this is literally my biggest win of the year, as usually I run (and feel) absolutely pants. 💩But despite my legs feeling like two bricks, I somehow muscled out sub 5min mile pace (3:05km) for my final 2mile rep. Ooft it hurt. (And I've been on the sofa ever since! 😅).”

Dressed in a sleek black workout set, she didn’t just make the workout look effortless—she made it look empowering. Adding a playful pun to her caption, she wrote, “Never tyre’d of a good beach workout.”
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... Now I am ready to pack a punch or be strong enough to take a brutal beating 💪#Vedaa coming to a theatre near you on August 15th.”

She Runs

Sharvari likes to run to keep herself in shape. She shared this set of photos on Instagram of herself running on the beach. 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. Running can: help to build strong bones, as it is a weight bearing exercise, strengthen muscles, improve cardiovascular fitness, burn plenty of kilojoules, help maintain a healthy weight.”

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.

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.”

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.”
