Lucciana Beynon is getting ready to celebrate her birthday

Model Lucciana Beynon is getting ready to celebrate her birthday—but work comes first for the daughter of Travers Beynon and Ninibeth Leal. Beynon, who turns 22 on July 9, shared a picture of herself posing backstage in a makeup chair, wearing a black and gold one-piece bikini. "Next show," she wrote on her selfie.

Beynon loves boxing workouts with a personal trainer at the gym. "Boxing is an excellent way to improve your cardiovascular endurance," says the American Sports & Fitness Association. "During a boxing workout, you will use your whole body to throw punches and execute combinations. As a result, your heart rate will be elevated for the duration of the workout. Not only that, but due to the intensity of the workout, you'll burn more calories than other forms of exercise."

Beynon is a big fan of using the StairMaster machine for convenient cardio that's gentle on the joints. "Climbing stairs is one of the best ways to burn calories in a short amount of time," says Todd Buckingham, PhD. "Plus, the StairMaster is great for building your leg muscles, particularly your glutes, hamstrings and quads."

Beynon uses weights and dumbbells to build muscle and tone up. "You don't need to spend hours a day lifting weights to benefit from strength training. You can see significant improvement in your strength with just two or three 20- or 30-minute strength training sessions a week," says the Mayo Clinic. "As your muscle mass increases, you'll likely be able to lift weight more easily and for longer periods of time. If you keep it up, you can continue to increase your strength, even if you're not in shape when you begin."

Beynon's social media highlights just how much she enjoys dancing—which research shows has incredible health benefits. "For rhythmic dances, such as the foxtrot or waltz, a 160-pound person will burn an estimated 130 calories in 30 minutes," says Jessica Matthews, MS. "For more intense styles of dance such as the salsa, the number of calories burned doubles to approximately 250 calories in 30 minutes, which is comparable to performing a light jog for the same duration."

Beynon loves swimming outdoors, whether it's in the ocean or in a pool. "Research shows us that being in or next to water reduces our blood pressure, slows our breathing down and allows our parasympathetic nervous system to do its job," says Catherine Kelly, PhD. "This is our 'rest, repair and repose' system and is vital for effective brain function and a strong immune system. Water encourages us to relax, in other words."

Lucciana Beynon may only be 17 but she already has big plans to be a Supermodel

Lucciana Beynon, the daughter of tobacco tycoon Travers 'The Candyman' Beynon, has set her sights on becoming a Victoria's Secret Angel.

And the 17-year-old looked every inch the professional model on Wednesday, when she shared behind-the-scenes snaps from a recent photo shoot.

The glamorous brunette showcased her athletic figure in a high-cut green swimsuit while posing for selfies, which she later shared.

Displaying her exotic features, the aspiring catwalk star struck several poses while sitting in front of a desk covered in cosmetics.

Lucciana is signed to Vivien's Model Management.

She is hoping to follow in the footsteps of Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner by walking the runway for Victoria's Secret.

In 2017, Lucciana revealed her plans to leave Australia and move to the U.S. to pursue her runway dreams.

'When I finish school I'll still be 17, so as soon as I turn 18, I'm going to move to America forever,' she told the Gold Coast Bulletin.

'I want to become a Victoria's Secret Angel and then ultimately become a supermodel,' she added.

Lucciana, whose mother is Venezuelan former beauty queen Ninibeth Leal, added that she has a contingency plan for when her modelling career ends.
