Brooke Burke Reveals Her Secrets To The Perfect Summer Body

Brooke Burke is spilling her secrets for staying toned and glowing all summer long, sharing the go-to rituals she swears by.

Back in 2023, the actress launched her 21-Day Fitness Challenge, a program built around "intentional wellness" that helped to embrace healthier routines beyond just workouts. 

Now, as the founder of Brooke Burke Body, she is showing how her lifestyle approach has become just as much about joy and balance as it is about fitness.

The star says her top three methods are cold plunges, yoga, and using a PEMF pad, all of which she incorporates into her weekly routine.

She explained that cold plunges are not just about mental discipline but also help with burning fat and reducing inflammation. Burke aims to do them five times a week, staying in the icy water for at least three minutes each time.

Yoga is another essential for her, especially moves like the cobra and warrior poses that target her core. She admits that the area has needed extra attention since going through menopause.

According to The Daily Mail, Burke also uses a PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic frequency) mat twice a day for eight minutes at a time. She says it "improves oxygen flow, circulation, and recovery," though the mats come with a steep price tag, ranging from $330 to $700.

Burke says staying in shape is not just about structured workouts; rather, it is about everyday habits that keep her body moving and her mind clear.

One of her favorite tricks is taking walks around her neighborhood while tightening her abs and wearing ankle and wrist weights. She says the simple move helps her burn extra calories and train her core without even thinking about it. 

"Movement is what matters most," she explained. "Get outside, move your body, and escape from your to-do list, is meaningful."

Alongside her walking routine, Burke has shifted her diet to focus on more protein, longer fasting periods, and anti-inflammatory foods. She credits those adjustments with helping her feel better and recover faster.

Burke has been helping people transform their bodies and minds for years. The Blast caught up with the wellness coach in 2023 when she launched the 21-Day Fitness Challenge, which was designed to go beyond traditional workouts. 

The program includes three weeks of healthy recipes, daily worksheets to track gratitude and progress, plus guided meditations to support overall well-being.

Burke explained that the 21-day format makes it easier for participants to lock in new habits. "It does take 21 days for things to really stick," she said, adding that it has all the "components to retrain the brain, help you rewire, help you change your inner dialogue."

She also shared why this challenge stands out among her many projects, stating, "It's evergreen... And it'll be a great opportunity to up your wellness game all year long."

Burke may have built a reputation as a fitness entrepreneur, but she admits her daughter played a key role in helping her through one of the biggest career shifts of her life.

The Blast noted that after releasing her wellness program, Burke revealed that she leaned on her daughter Rain's perspective when she stepped away from "Dancing With the Stars." Burke co-hosted the hit competition for seven seasons before leaving. 

Speaking with Tamron Hall, Burke recalled the anxiety she felt at the time, remembering one particular morning in the car with Rain as she worried about what was next for her career. She shared that Rain, who was in kindergarten then, interrupted those thoughts with a moment of pure honesty.

"Mommy, this is the most amazing time ever," Rain told her, pointing out how much more time they now had together. Burke said she saw that moment as a sign from God that things would work out, no matter what. 

These days, Burke is far more relaxed, even when it comes to the question of her wedding date. The Blast reported that the TV host, who got engaged to real estate developer Scott Rigsby in 2020, had originally hoped to tie the knot on May 28. 

The date was not random; it was connected to 528 Hz, a frequency often linked to healing and harmony, which Burke calls the "frequency of love." A believer in sound baths and spiritual practices, she felt it was the perfect match for their ceremony.

But life had other plans. Between family obligations and unexpected challenges, Burke said it was impossible to align everything with that symbolic date. Still, she is not letting go of the idea. "We gotta do it next year," she said, while admitting the details remain up in the air.

With these simple hacks, Brooke Burke proves that fitness does not have to be complicated; it just has to be consistent.
