Aside from continuously improving their talents and maintaining their physical appearances, it’s also a must for celebrities to keep themselves healthy and fit. Thus, they make sure to squeeze in time for working out in their hectic schedules.
While some opt to hit the gym or do simple exercises at home to fulfill this, others turn to sports, which have also become their favorite hobbies. Among them are the celebrities that we listed in this Kapamilya Snaps feature.
Lovi Poe
It seems that being an action star really runs in the blood of Lovi as she officially began her “wild” journey in arnis recently, as she shared on Instagram. The FPJ’s Batang Quiapo star first posted a reel taken during her intense training in September, which she captioned, “It’s my first time doing arnis training…definitely something I’ll be getting into.”
Anne Curtis
Even though her work schedule has always been hectic, not to mention that she also has to fulfill her duties as a mom and a wife to her family, it truly amazes us how Anne still manages to have an active lifestyle. And aside from running and triathlon, the It’s Showtime host has also found interest in arnis, as she posted a few snaps of her during her arnis training for what seems to be an upcoming movie project.
Donny Pangilinan
Fans of Donny certainly know that he’s a basketball player, as he used to be part of his school’s varsity team in high school. But in 2020, the Can’t Buy Me Love leading man has found another sport that enkindled interest, which is golf. He initially tried it in 2020 and even shared the experience in one of his YouTube vlogs. Since then, Donny has been spotted playing with family and friends.
Daniel Padilla
Like Donny, it’s only recently that Daniel fell in love with golf. He started in 2021 and shared that this activity has been beneficial to him as it helps him relax and be more disciplined. And aside from basketball, the Supreme Idol has been actively joining various tournaments in the country.
Kathryn Bernardo
Aside from working out, Kathryn is able to improve her fitness by regularly exercising and trying different sports. In 2021, she was able to cross an item out of her list of goals for that year when she learned to play badminton and fell in love with it. The following year, her interest in tennis got enkindled as well, with her close friends Alora Sasam and Ria Atayde as her buddies.
Piolo Pascual
With how he has remained youthful in his 40s, many are curious about how Piolo is able to maintain his toned and strong physique. Those who have been following the Ultimate Heartthrob on IG would know that he loves working out and playing badminton, as he fills his account with videos of his games with his pals.
Kyle Echarri
After years of taking a break from football, Kyle finally had the chance to set foot on the field again this 2023. In January, the Senior High actor shared snaps and clips of him on IG to mark his return to the sport that he loves. He revealed in another post that it used to be part of his way of life, stating, “I may not be that good at it, but it completes my week when I am able to play.”
Markus Paterson
Another big fan of football is Markus, which isn’t completely surprising since he’s half-British. Last July, he uploaded pictures of him on Instagram captured from his keeper drills in the rain. Of course, the Pira-Pirasong Paraiso actor has already taken his son Jude to watch a game and hopes that his son will also love this sport someday.
Janine Gutierrez
Aside from her astounding acting prowess, Janine is also admired for her doll-like splendor and svelte figure. And she actually has different ways of staying fit, which include playing tennis during her day-offs. In one of her IG posts, Janine recounted an instance when she got hit on the head by a tennis ball that she just laughed off.
Heaven Peralejo
It was in 2020 when Heaven first got into tennis, which she imparted in one of her YouTube vlogs. Despite her busy schedule, Heaven has been keen on constantly playing the sport to keep herself healthy.
Sue Ramirez
As she’s been taking her well-deserved vacation in Siargao, Sue didn’t just show off her beautiful body, but her skills in surfing, too. Sue posted a reel of her while riding the waves, which she captioned, “Surf, sand and the pursuit of happiness.” It was in 2017 when she took surfing lessons and applied what she had learned in the afternoon soap opera Hanggang Saan.
Maris Racal
Just like her bestie Sue, Maris also enjoys riding the waves. It was in 2018 when she initially got on a surfboard during a fun Siargao trip and the Can’t Buy Me Love star seems to have included it in her itinerary in some of her beach getaways.
Andi Eigenmann
For sure, many of us know that Andi is into surfing as she’s been living in Siargao for years now. However, it’s not only what keeps her fit and what helped get back into shape after her previous pregnancies, as she also takes on boxing as part of her regular exercise.
Denise Laurel
It’s also boxing that helped Denise stay active during lock-in tapings for Flower of Evil, with her co-star Piolo Pascual personal trainer as her coach. Being the fitness enthusiast that she is, the actress-host enthused in an IG post, “I’m so blessed that everyone in the cast looooves working out!!!”
