Well, here we are—2024 is in full swing, and Kelly Ripa's kicking things off with a bang! The beloved cohost of Live with Kelly and Ryan (yes, it's Ryan now, but hey, we all know Mark's still a big part of her world) has been hitting the gym hard and taking her millions of Instagram followers along for the ride. If you're like me, you're probably thinking, "Wow, Kelly's got some serious motivation this year!" And let me tell you, she's not holding back.
On January 10, Kelly gave her fans an exclusive look into her workout routine. Thanks to her celebrity trainer, the amazing Anna Kaiser, we got a glimpse of what it takes to keep that energy up every day. Anna posted a video of Kelly in action, which the star herself couldn't help but share with her followers. In the clip, Kelly's seen doing push-ups using an aerobic platform, proving once again that she's got the strength and determination to keep going.
The very next day, January 11, Kelly was back at it. She posted a photo on her Instagram Story showing her prepping for another intense workout session. With a simple black workout set that left nothing to the imagination, she captioned the pic, "Six days a week." Talk about dedication! Oh, and if the disco ball hanging above her head didn't give it away, she's definitely ready to break a sweat and maybe even bust out a few dance moves.

Kelly's Husband Mark Consuelos: The Gym Membership Guru
Now, before you think Kelly's all on her own with this fitness journey, let's talk about her partner in crime, Mark Consuelos. If you're a regular viewer of Live, you might have caught Kelly sharing a little story about how Mark has been subtly encouraging her fitness routine for years. During an episode on January 2, Kelly revealed that Mark has been gifting her a gym membership every Christmas. Yes, you heard that right—every single year!
She laughed as she recounted, "Early in our relationship, every year you would buy me a gym membership... and every year, I wouldn't use it. And then Christmas would come around again, and there it was—a gym membership!" But Kelly wasn't just laughing it off. She went on to say, "One day, one of my girlfriends said, 'Maybe he's trying to tell you something?' And it hit me—oh my gosh, he's trying to tell me something!"
Fast forward to now, and Kelly's embracing the gift with open arms. "I'm glad that you stuck with it," she admitted, proving that sometimes the best gifts are the ones that push us to be our best selves.
Dancing Queen: Kelly's Love for Movement
Kelly's not just about the weights and cardio; she's got some serious dance moves too! Last summer, she showed off her skills in a video with trainer Blaire Buchanan Needham. They danced to Madonna's "Music Inferno," and let me tell you, the energy was electric. Her fans were blown away by her rhythm and grace, proving that Kelly's got moves that can rival any professional dancer.
And let's not forget about those iconic dance segments on Live. Last April, Kelly had a wardrobe malfunction during a choreography session with Dancing With the Stars pros Val Chmerkovskiy and Jenna Johnson. But Kelly, being the pro she is, handled it with humor and grace. "Did my entire back rip open?" she joked to Mark. "Nope, just a little bit. You're fine," he reassured her. And just like that, Kelly brushed it off, telling the audience, "It's just a breakaway dress. Who cares!"
