There’s nothing like having a tight bikini body ready for the beach and no one knows this better than celebrities. Every vacation they take is an opportunity for the paparazzi to snap shots of celeb’s bikini bodies and salivate over them on TMZ—or, if the bikini bodies aren’t quite up to par, lambaste them on the Internet with embarrassing pictures.
That’s why celebrities work so hard to keep their bikini bodies in shape. Not everyone was born with the perfect genetics of a Victoria’s Secret lingerie model—it takes time in the gym and sometimes, a little nip and tuck (we’re not going to condone that as that’s cheating!). But not everyone has the time or money for a personal trainer.
The Top 5 Celebrity Bikini Bodies
That’s why we’re going to take a look at the 5 best celebrity bikini bodies and show you how you can get similar results. Ready? Let’s hit the beach!
Best Celebrity Bikini Body #1: Georgia Salpa
The long, lean, slender body of Georgia Salpa places her at the top of almost any list on celebrity bikini bodies. Sure, her dark locks and piercing eyes helped launch her modeling career, but its her amazing dedication to her body that keeps her on the covers of Maxim, FHM, Fitness Magazines and many other periodicals.
Of course, take a look at her social media sites and you’ll notice most of the pictures are pre- or post-workout, showing just how much dedication it takes to get top notch bikini bodies.Still, if you want to get that killer elongated torso look that Salpa is known for, Pilates is the way to go. Focus on your core and tightening up, then pair it with a low-slung bikini bottom with slightly raised hips to really draw the attention to your own bikini body this year on the sands.
Best Celebrity Bikini Body #2: Kim Kardashian
A bikini body doesn’t have to mean super-tight and muscular, as demonstrated by the soft and dangerously curvaceous Kim K. Kim’s bikini body has fluctuated over the years, but has always centered around her biggest, er, asset. Those blessed in the posterior department shouldn’t try to hide their natural womanliness with sarongs, but rather embrace it as Kim has.
Still, that means some serious attention has to be paid to the area, coming in the form of the butt blaster and other exercises like explosive lunges, toe taps, single-leg front raises, squats and hip-lift progressions in the gym or at home. The last thing you want on your bikini body is cottage cheese.
Best Celebrity Bikini Body #3: Gisele Bundchen
Yes, she has Brazilian genes and yes, she also has super modeling money (as well as Superbowl money from hubby Tom Brady), but she also has two children and has been able to get her bikini body back into shape in no time.
While that might not be a realistic approach for the average woman, it should give you some inspiration that it’s possible (we’ve known this for years—Hiedi Klum, Demi Moore, even Princess Kate Middleton of recent). Post-pregnancy bikini bodies come from targeting the abs and burning the excess fat that the body naturally stores for nursing the baby. But just remember, you need to wait 4 to 8 weeks for the abdominal gap formed for childbirth to close. If you had a C-section, you’ll have to wait longer. Speak with your doctor about the right time and how to get back into your abdominal exercises after pregnancy.
Best Celebrity Bikini Body #4: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
Yes, I realize that this is two Victoria Secret models in a row, but there’s a reason they are paid the big bucks and chosen with such scrutiny—they look amazing with their bikini bodies. Rosie is a natural beauty, but what we really want to take away from her bodacious bikini body is the accentuation of her hips.
While Kim K. certainly has the hips in full effect, Rosie has the slimmed down version of the hour glass figure that is realistic for women with a slighter build. The key here is to focus on diet more than exercise. Yes, exercise is going to be important as well, but with the proper diet, your exercise can be little more than just getting out there and being active in the world. Go for after dinner walks with your significant other; enlist your friends to go on weekend bicycle trips; park at the far end of the parking lot—whatever you need to do, just focus on staying active and eating right. For results like Rosie, I suggest a whole food, natural diet, eliminating foods made with preservatives or high in sugar. Pair that with some swimming if possible, as nothing elongates the body and prepares it for display in a bikini quite like swimming—heck, a bikini is a swimsuit after all, so of course, swimming more is going to perfectly sculpt celebrity bikini bodies!
Best Celebrity Bikini Body #5: Stacy Keibler
Keibler was known for her legs long before being photographed on the beach—she was donning bikinis in the WWF/WWE years ago. Still, age hasn’t diminished her long, perfectly shaped legs (actually, she’s really not that old—she started young).
It’s no wonder George Clooney seriously considered settling down with Stacey.If you want toned, shaped legs, the best way to do that is to use them. Sitting for hours on end—or your end as it were—at the office or on the couch is horrible. Muscles start to go through something called “atrophy” when they are not in use. Basically, use it or lose it. Get out there and walk, jog, run, bike, hike, Rollerblade, windsurf—whatever it is that you feel up to. Just make sure your legs are moving. You can go stationary with a treadmill or bike (I have mine in front of the television), or if you have problem areas (e.g. skinny calves, fat on the thighs), work on them at the gym.
