Body by Pilates.
Martha Stewart fronts the 2023 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in a plunging white one-piece, making history as the oldest cover model in the magazine’s history at 81.
And while the domestic doyenne often shares snaps of her lavish meals on Instagram — full of caviar, croissants and other “good things” — she got serious about her diet and exercise routine ahead of her shoot.
“I didn’t starve myself, but I didn’t eat any bread or pasta for a couple of months,” Stewart shared during an appearance on the “Today” show Monday, per People.

“I went to Pilates every other day and that was great; I’m still going to Pilates every other day ’cause it’s so great. And I just, I live a clean life anyway — good diet and good exercise and healthy skincare and all of that stuff,” she added.
Appearing on the show shortly after Mother’s Day, Stewart also gave credit to her own mother, who wore bikinis her entire life, even after having six children.
“My genes are good,” she said.
The thirst trap queen previously shared some of her tips for looking fabulous in selfies with Page Six Style, telling us she starts every day with her own homemade green juice and makes sure to “project” her chin and “optimize” lighting for the best results.

Despite prepping with extra exercise and a stricter eating plan, Stewart isn’t all that interested in anti-aging treatments.
“I think all of us should think about good living, successfully living, and not aging. The whole aging thing is so boring. You know what I mean?” she said on “Today.”
She might be wrong on that front: Stewart’s ever-youthful appearance is anything but boring.
