5 Secrets of Sofía Vergara’s Stunning Beach Body as She Shows Off Swimwear

Here are 5 of her lifestyle secrets.

Sofía Vergara is heating up social media in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the 51-year-old actress shows off her age-defying figure, wowwing her followers. “One week til first day of summer ☀️😍 get your bathing suit game ready,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. Here is how she approaches diet, fitness, and self-care to look half her age.

Vergara, who has “bad knees,” uses the Pilates Megaformer for her workouts and trains with Jennifer Yates. “With this machine, I was able to figure out what worked for me. I don’t love it at all, but I love how my body’s changing,” she said. Why is pilates a good workout? According to the Mayo Clinic there are lots of benefits to the workout, 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, relief from stress and back pain, enhanced athletic performance, and heightened mind-body awareness.

Vergara “already changed [her] mentality about food” when she moved to Los Angeles in 2005. “If you live here, you can’t always order the high-fat dishes like pasta with truffles. You have a little sushi, and when you’re out with your girlfriends you order a nice salad,” she said. “When I do indulge, I exercise a bit harder the next day. My workout motto is really simple: No pain, no cake!”
