The mother and daughter proudly rocked two-pieces on the catwalk for the live broadcast show at the W South Beach pool in Miami Beach, Florida.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt first, I thought, \u2018Am I really doing this? Are you kidding me? In a bikini at age 65?\u2019\u201d Austin chuckled. \u201cBut how exhilarating that was! It was this amazing, natural high. It was an honor that they even asked me. And then to do this with my daughter made it even more special. It was the highlight of my life to walk the runway with my daughter. I\u2019m still not over it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The former gymnast shared that her daughter, 28, has been an inspiration to her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt brought tears to my eyes [when I first saw her in SI],\u201d Austin explained. \u201cI was just so proud of her. She\u2019s just the sweetest person with the biggest heart. And she\u2019s a hard worker. She tried out for it three different years through Swim Search, so it\u2019s not like this was given to her. And I\u2019m just so proud, because this has been a dream of hers. I remember\u00a0seeing Christie Brinkley\u00a0and Kathy Ireland on the cover and [thinking] how that was such a big deal. So it\u2019s amazing to see my daughter in the magazine. And she will now always be a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/denise-austin-getty-05.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Denise Austin Sports Illustrated Swim Model show\" class=\"wp-image-23905101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/denise-austin-getty-05.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/denise-austin-getty-05.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/denise-austin-getty-05.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Denise Austin called the experience \u201cexhilarating.\u201d <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images for Sports Illustra<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For more than 30 years, Austin has been encouraging people to kick off an active lifestyle through her workout routines. She has sold more than 24 million exercise videos and DVDs. She also led the longest-running fitness show in TV history. She is still bursting with energy and enthusiasm while doing a \u201ctotal body burn cardio\u201d or training to be \u201clean, toned and totally fit\u201d \u2013 all with a megawatt smile.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, she teamed up with Easy Spirit to launch a new collection on Sept. 15 named \u201cEasy Spirit x Denise Austin.\u201d It features active footwear designed for high or low-impact workout routines.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShoes are the most important thing you need whether you\u2019re walking or\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/entertainment\/genres\/diet-fitness\">doing any form of fitness<\/a>,\u201d she explained. \u201cWhen Easy Spirit asked me to collaborate, I was so excited, because I love their shoes, but I also wanted to make a more fun style with benefits. One shoe is great for power walking that\u2019s also very lightweight\u2026 the other is for walking fast or running. I created both styles, but I walk at least 35 minutes a day. I wanted something where I can go out and walk my dog, casually wear to Pilates, or just for running errands. I\u2019m always in athletic wear, so it made sense.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/denise-austin-getty-02.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Denise Austin Katie Austin\" class=\"wp-image-23905114\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/denise-austin-getty-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/denise-austin-getty-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/09\/denise-austin-getty-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Denise Austin says her daughter Katie is an inspiration to her. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">WireImage<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Austin said that low-impact workouts often get overlooked, but there are plenty of benefits for those needing some motivation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou could burn calories and get yourself healthy without putting pressure on the joints,\u201d she shared. \u201cIt\u2019s easier on your knees, your hips, your thighs and back. I recommend a brisk walk, not a power walk\u2026 I also do low-impact aerobics at home. So instead of a regular jumping jack, I will do a heel jack where you\u2019re not jumping. The larger muscles of the body burn more calories, so you can burn more if you use your thighs and gluteus. You don\u2019t need to jump to feel it and get your heart rate up.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>According to Austin, her secret to feeling and looking youthful is surprisingly simple. She works out 30 minutes daily and eats balanced meals consisting of \u201c80 percent healthy foods and 20 percent treats,\u201d along with drinking plenty of water throughout the day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI like HIIT interval training,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I\u2019m out walking, I\u2019ll do five minutes of a nice walk. Then I will do a burst of a fast walk where I\u2019m pumping my arms and powering through. Then I do another <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pagesix.com\/2022\/09\/09\/bella-hadid-models-barely-there-chain-bikini-top-on-the-beach\/?_ga=2.64492139.511449681.1663245940-117150524.1663094340\">five minutes of just walking<\/a> and then take it up higher, almost like a light jog. I also believe in a positive attitude. If I wake up feeling grateful, I\u2019ll want to take good care of myself. And I\u2019ll want to exercise. It\u2019s a message I\u2019ve been preaching for 40 years. I\u2019m still a believer. That\u2019s how I live.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Austin also emphasized experimenting in the kitchen \u2013 and\u00a0eating everything in moderation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love Mexican food!\u201d she gushed. \u201cI love my tacos, guacamole and margaritas. Those are my treats. I come from a big family, and we love to eat. When I go out to dinner, I want to enjoy myself. I don\u2019t even think about what I\u2019m ordering \u2013 I just enjoy it. And when I\u2019m home, I do my own cooking. I make food all the time for my family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The one message Austin has for other women her age is to keep moving.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou could always improve your health,\u201d she explained. \u201cIt\u2019s all about energy level. I exercise for health benefits but also to have the energy to enjoy my life. I\u2019m a true believer that 10 minutes a day will help you get started. Walk for 10 minutes. If you could do that every day, you could improve your spirit and your health.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know that exercise is one of the best preventative medicines, so if you could just give yourself 10 minutes, it will make such a difference,\u201d she continued. \u201cYou can help your mind and your body. And once you do that, you can build yourself up to 30 minutes. And there are all kinds of exercises out there. I like to do leg exercises in the kitchen. I do pushups against the countertop as I wait for my coffee to brew. Every day, I think of ways I can stretch and move more. If there\u2019s one message I can give is that it\u2019s never too late.\u201d\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
