It’s not black magic, even though it sometimes looks like it but actually, something far easier and attainable to do. These are all the tips, tricks and entire fitness routines of celebrities, which you can also follow while staying at home- no private gym needed!
Victoria Beckham
As this singer turned fashion aficionado knows well, it pays to be flexible in life! Victoria Beckham’s certainly no stranger to bending over backwards—whether it’s in her career, her glowing family life with husband David Beckham, or her fitness regime.

The much-loved superstar inspires everyone with her ability to adapt to the situation. Beckham loves doing yoga at home, finding a calm spot in her busy and demanding schedule. She also has designed her own fitness range to wear while doing it! Now that’s impressive!
Gisele Bünchen
Supermodel Gisele Bundchen often does joint workouts with her sports star husband Tom Brady. Whether we’re working out at the gym or doing our exercise at home, working out harder than a superstar quarterback is definitely goals!

“She’s an incredibly hard worker,” Brady said of his wife to People. “She’s got so much energy. She needs to work out because she wouldn’t be able to sit still. She trains hard, and when we’re in there together sometimes she goes harder than me.”
Bella Hadid
Another member of the Hadid modelling dynasty, younger sister Bella Hadid also loves a good home workout. Hadid also loves a good boxing workout, and trains for hours every day!

“When time is on my side, I train with my coach for intensive sessions,” she said to Vogue Paris. “I run non-stop for 20 minutes followed by a boxing session and finally a series of weights targeting the abs and glutes. We keep the routines varied, so the sessions are always fun.”
Miranda Kerr
Supermodel Miranda Kerr stays in shape with a variety of home workouts. For Kerr, exercising at home is more convenient and can be adapted around her other commitments, such as looking after her son.

Kerr’s at-home workout regime includes a variety of exercises such as planks, Pilates, and yoga. “I’ll put on music, and my son will be dancing while I’m doing planks on the floor,” Kerr said to Harper’s Bazaar.
Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson owns her own athletic wear company, Fabletics, so you can be sure she is pretty serious about her fitness. Two of Hudson’s favourite workouts are dancing and Pilates—both of which you can easily do at home!

“Pilates makes my day better and that’s just the straight truth!” she wrote on Instagram. “Every time I finish a class, I feel two inches taller, lighter, and more grounded.” There are tons of Pilates videos available online, as well as dance workouts, for you do to in the comfort of your own home!
Kim Kardashian
For someone whose physique once famously “broke the internet”, Kim Kardashian has a pretty mixed relationship with working out. She loves to stay in shape, but she doesn’t pretend that she finds it easy! Like all of us, Kardashian knows that fitness takes hard work and effort.

“Kim has a LOVE/HATE relationship with at-home workouts with anything that involves jumping,” her trainer Melissa Alcantara said to E Online. “BUT, she knows that’s the most effective and she gets it done!” Kardashian does a mixture of squats, leg raises, and ab crunches, all of which can be done at home.
Ashley Graham
Model Ashley Graham is well known for her commitment to fitness and is always posting inspirational workout videos on her Instagram. And it’s not societal pressures that motivate her—but to be healthy and strong.

“I don’t work out because I want to be thin, I work out to stay healthy, strong, firm and to keep my mind clear.” Though Graham’s workouts are certainly intense, most of them can still be done at home with minimal equipment. Graham especially loves exercises such as planks, lunges, kicks, and squats.
Halle Berry
Actress Halle Berry got into incredible shape for her boxing movie Bruised, showing off some pretty impressive abs! But actually, Berry has been boxing for over ten years and loves it as an exercise for all-over body training.

“Boxing is still considered one of the best full-body workouts,” she wrote on Instagram. “You’ll sculpt every muscle and burn major calories and fat. It dramatically decreases stress levels, develops hand-eye coordination, and builds confidence and discipline.” There are plenty of boxing workout videos online, so you can train in your own home!
Margot Robbie
Margot Robbie may have a superhuman physique, but she’s remarkably real when it comes to her feelings about working out. We don’t recommend going for a long time without doing any exercise at all, but it’s certainly good to take some downtime once in a while!
Image via @margotrobbie/IG
“When I’m not training for a role then I don’t really train,” she said to Harper’s Bazaar. “I’m just so relieved to not have to be training or at the gym. Since Suicide Squad and I, Tonya I did literally no exercise.”
Gigi Hadid
Previously a volleyball player and horserider, Gigi Hadid is also a trained boxer! Hadid spoke to Elle about how she prefers to get her workouts outside of the gym. “Going and running, just to run on the treadmill, wasn’t my thing… I had to start boxing because I missed working on something and learning.”

If you want to learn some of Hadid’s incredible boxing moves and get fit at the same time, head to YouTube to watch some boxing workout videos. You can even ask one of your friends to join you virtually or rope in your partner!
Jennifer Lopez
The world watched in awe as Jennifer Lopez took the stage to perform at this year’s Super Bowl half time show. She showed off abs and a six-pack that are pretty impressive for anyone, let alone a woman of fifty!

The incredible powerhouse is passionate about working out and eating healthily and often speaks about the importance of positive body image. Lopez enjoys a variety of workouts, featuring exercises such as squats, lunges and planks, which can all be done at home.
Blake Lively
Blake Lively is one example of how exercising at home doesn’t mean any less intensity in your workout. After the birth of her first child, Lively got back into shape by doing a variety of high-intensity workouts, all of which can be done at home.

Some of the exercises she did were lunges, pushups, lateral jumps, and sprints. You don’t even need any equipment to do any of these—just make sure you don’t bump into anyone when you’re running around the house!
Channing Tatum
Channing Tatum’s workout regime is pretty intense, but that doesn’t mean it’s complicated. Tatum relies on a rotation of cardio and callisthenic bodyweight exercises, which are things such as jumping jacks, burpees, press-ups, pull-ups and squats.

These certainly aren’t easy, but you can do them anywhere! Tatum’s trainer would get him to do three of these at a time, doing as many rounds as he could complete within twenty minutes. Who’d have thought you could get as ripped like Channing Tatum without stepping foot in a gym!
Jessica Chastain
Jessica Chastain is another celeb who likes to keep her workout regime active when she’s on the road, even if she can’t get to a gym. The actress loves yoga, and when she can’t make it to a class in person, she does what all of us mere mortals can do—follows along with an online video.

Chastain loves the Bryan Kest Power Yoga online videos. “I used to work out at his studio in Santa Monica, but now I do it when I’m travelling,” Well, no one is travelling anywhere anytime soon but that doesn’t mean, we still can’t follow along with a few online workout classes!
Chris Noth
Nicknamed Mr Big for more reasons than one, Chris Noth has spent years building up his upper body and overall muscle tone with a regimented fitness schedule. Whether working out in the gym or at home, Noth’s secret is to perform sets for time rather than sets.

According to Men’s Health, “This lets you get the most out of whatever amount of resistance you have available to you.” It certainly worked for Noth, and it can work for you at home, too!
Lea Michele
Glee star Leah Michele loves to stay fit and healthy, and her exercise regime is just part of her admirable healthy lifestyle. “I’m passionate about working out,” she said to Shape.com. “I love it.”

She also wants to encourage her fans to find the same happiness and enjoyment in exercise. “Find three workouts you enjoy so that you can choose what you need on any given day,” she advises. “I also do CorePower hot yoga, which is amazing… I exercise every day if I can.”
Khloé Kardashian
Another Kardashian on this list who loves to stay fit and healthy is Khloe Kardashian, who is always happy to share her exercise secrets with her fans. Khloe wrote up her entire seven-day fitness plan on her personal website, revealing that she works out a different part of the body each day, with a rest day on Sundays.

“One of the most valuable things I’ve learned is to constantly change up my workouts,” she wrote. “I do this by strength training with a focus on different body parts on different days. I also try to incorporate different types of cardio.”
Britney Spears
Britney Spears has long been inspiring her fans with her impressive dance routines. And who can forget those abs in “I’m a Slave For You”?! Spears’ washboard abs are a result of years of dedicated cardio, yoga and strength training.
Image via @britneyspears/IG
She regularly posts videos on her Instagram of her home workouts—which often feature dancing to her own tracks! “Meditation, prayer, and working out is crucial for this time in our lives!” the pop legend wrote on Instagram. So, put on a classic Britney song, and burpee and boogie your way to fitness.
Shanina Shaik
Victoria’s Secret Model Shanina Shaik is another star who has to fit exercise around her super busy modelling schedule. “I try to fit a workout in as much as I can when I’m travelling,” she said to Harper’s Bazaar.
Image via @shaninamshaik/IG
“I focus a lot on toning, so Pilates is a big part of my routine… We focus on a lot of strengthening and toning. It’s all about incorporating simple movements that work multiple parts of your body at once—like doing a movement for your legs that lets you work on your core at the same time”
Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus is a dedicated fitness fanatic, to the point where she installed a Pilates studio in her own home! Now, you don’t need to install a studio in order to be able to practice Pilates at home.
Image via @mileycyrus/IG
Cyrus does a range of exercises that can easily be done at home including stretching, sidekicks and ab crunches, and usually works out for around 30 minutes a day. She’s also a big fan of yoga, having practised Ashtanga yoga for years. She not only swears by it for fitness but also to combat stress and anxiety!
Gordon Ramsay
Gordon Ramsay is almost as famous for his gruelling workout schedule as he is for his culinary prowess and ferocious demeanour. Super-fit Ramsay participates in two Iron Man marathons a year and is constantly committed to staying fit and healthy.

“My father passed at 53 with a heart attack,” he said to Delish. “So I’ve got that scare-mongering going on, on a weekly basis, that I need to stay fit.” Even when he’s not able to get out and about, Ramsay does home workouts like cardio and sit-ups.
