Huỳnh Thị Thanh Thủy, born in 2002 and hailing from Da Nang, Vietnam, was crowned Miss Vietnam 2022 before going on to win the Miss Intercontinental 2024 title in Tokyo, Japan, on November 12, 2024. The 22-year-old bested 75 other contestants, impressing the judges with her academic excellence and stunning looks. Standing tall at 1.76 m, her measurements are an impressive 80-63-94 cm.
Prior to her pageantry success, Thanh Thủy pursued her studies at two prestigious institutions: the University of Foreign Languages under the University of Da Nang, and Greenwich University Vietnam.
In an interview, Thanh Thủy shared a simple end-of-day routine that helps her maintain her slender figure. She swears by these four effective exercises:
1. Boat Pose: Lie on a mat with legs extended straight or knees bent at a 90-degree angle. Keep your arms parallel to the mat and engage your core muscles. Slightly lean back, holding the pose for as long as possible. Repeat this exercise 2-3 times per session.
Extend your legs and keep your arms parallel to the mat, engaging your core.
2. Reach for the Toes: Lie on your back and take a deep breath. As you exhale, engage your core muscles and lift your upper body simultaneously with your right leg. Reach your left arm toward your right toe without straining your neck. Keep your chin towards your chest to avoid putting pressure on your neck. Slowly lower your body back down and repeat on the other side.
Lift your upper body and reach for your toes while engaging your core.
3. Plank: Get into a push-up position and create a 90-degree angle with your arms. Keep your eyes looking forward, maintaining a straight back and neck. Your body should form a straight line from head to toe.
Form a straight line from head to toe while keeping your eyes forward.
4. Scissor Kick: Start in a seated position with your legs extended in front of you. Lean back slightly, forming a 30-degree angle with your back and the floor. Place your hands on the floor beside your hips, palms facing down. Inhale and lift your legs a few centimeters off the floor, keeping them higher than your hips. Engage your core and scissor your legs, crossing one leg over the other.
Begin in a seated position and lean back slightly, then lift your legs and scissor-kick them.
In addition to her dedicated exercise routine, Thanh Thủy also pays attention to her eating habits. She maintains a balanced diet with three meals a day and often enjoys a healthy dinner of plain yogurt with a banana and some granola. This delicious and nutritious meal helps satisfy her sweet tooth without derailing her fitness goals.
With her youthful beauty and intelligent, sharp demeanor, Miss Thanh Thủy captivates audiences wherever she goes, not just on the pageant stage.
