Gwen Stefani:
“Life is short, make sure you get the best out of it”
Gwen Renée Stefani is an American singer, songwriter, designer and actress. She is best known as the co-founder and lead vocalist of the band No Doubt. The blonde pop icon made an impression with her looks from the moment she stepped onto the music scene in 1995. Alongside her efforts to build a successful career, Gwen Stefani also works hard to maintain her figure. Her fitness trainer, Mike Heatlie, revealed that the singer burns up to 4,000 calories on days when she performs or has a concert. Heatlie strongly believes in combining exercises correctly. He starts with weight training, then moves on to intense cardio and finishes with lighter exercises. Above all, however, it is essential to perform the exercises correctly. That is why the main rule is to follow the advice of a personal trainer, who can create your workout program and make sure you perform it properly.
The 49-year-old singer’s approach to looking 29 is to work hard in the boxing gym and lift weights. The latter are just as beneficial for women as they are for men. They help prevent the loss of muscle mass and bone density, thereby reducing the risk of osteoporosis. She likes to keep things dynamic, so her workouts consist of strength and cardio exercises. „There’s no better way to sculpt your body,” the beautiful performer believes.
As a mother of three, she can’t escape the paparazzi’s cameras at beaches around the world, where she shows off her toned abs and gorgeous legs. For her, staying in shape has been a lifelong battle. The singer admits that she has followed various diets since her early teens to stay in great shape. She does it because it makes her feel good and because it allows her to wear “all the clothes she likes”.
Gwen firmly believes that expectant mothers should exercise, even during pregnancy. Of course, this should be done under a specialist’s supervision, with a doctor’s approval and only if the pregnancy is uncomplicated. She also advises pregnant women to eat healthily and avoid junk and unhealthy foods at all costs. That’s why the singer avoids fast food and combines vegetables, fruit, peanuts and soy milk in her diet.
The beautiful performer’s program is no different from most plans that dietitians and trainers would create for any of us. A beautiful body, great confidence, and a healthy lifestyle are entirely within reach… All you have to do is want it!
