Shakira, 43, Just Showed Off Her Toned Butt And Abs In A Bikini She Designed Herself



SO, UH… WHERE CAN I BUY ONE?

Shakira, 43, may secretly be the best swimwear designer on the web. On Monday, the “Hips Don’t Lie” singer took to Instagram to show off a bathing suit she designed herself, along with her crazy-toned butt and abs. “This is a new bathing suit I designed and my friend Bego made for me. I always need to create my own for the summer!” she wrote of the the lavender fringed bikini. Last year, she designed a similar suit in neon pink.

When training for the Super Bowl earlier this year, Shakira sculpted her impressive core using trainer Anna Kaiser’s comprehensive ab workouts. (Kaiser also trains Kelly Ripa.) Kaiser told E! News
 that Shakira works out five days a week, keeping her training schedule consistent. Two out of those five days, she works out twice. That said, she never keeps her workout consistent, because she doesn’t want her muscles to get too comfortable. This content is imported from Instagram.

“You need multiple types of muscular contractions and angles, as well as tempos,” Kaiser told Women’s Health. “If you do the same motions over and over, you’re not going to get the full benefit.” In order to keep Shakira’s muscles working, she changes the singer’s workout almost every day. “We alternate between strength and cardio intervals,” Kaiser told E! News. “Some days, we do just cardio and then strength and some days we start with strength and then do cardio, we like to mix it up.” Before tours, the pair build Shakira’s endurance so she can maintain a high level of energy throughout her entire show—and perform every night.


In order to make the most of her workouts, Shakira asks about the different muscle groups each exercise targets, her trainer revealed. “She’s very smart, and she wants to learn about the body, and she wants to know why she’s doing what she’s doing and what her goal is, what she’s trying to accomplish,” Kaiser told W magazine. “And that’s why we’ve had such a long relationship, because she knows what a stickler I am for functional smart training, but I also make it really fun.”This content is imported from {embed-name}.

If you want to try Shakira’s ab workout at home, you’ll want do bodyweight exercises that target all three muscle groups in your abs:

  • the transverse abdominis (deepest layer),
  • the rectus abdominis (middle layer),
  • and the external and internal obliques (the muscles on your sides).

Planks will get your transverse abdominis working, while you’ll want to rotate your torso to work your side abs with bicycles, side swims, swizzles, and screwdrivers.

3 Burpee Workouts To Strengthen And Sculpt Your Whole Bod Hella Fast

  3 Burpee Workouts To Strengthen And Sculpt Your Whole Bod Hella Fast MAJOR GAINS COMING IN HOT! Few fitness moves elicit as many ~feelings~ as the burpee. Whether you love them, love to hate them…or just hate them, it’s hard to argue with the fact that they are one of the most effective ways to transform your frame from head to toe lightening fast. That’s because burpees are a bodyweight strength exercise with a cardio kicker (that jump at the top will take your heart rate up a notch  real  quick). It’s the ideal combo for losing fat and building muscle at the same time (a.k.a. changing your body composition), hence its appeal for expediting results. But there are better ways to reap these gains than just busting out a bunch of burpees, which would get boring after awhile and that’d likely lead to you not doing them regularly enough to really reap their benefits, which we’ll get into below. Instead, consider doing a burpee workout. It’ll take the monotony out of the move—that goes do

TOP 4 ESSENTIAL EXERCISES FOR STRENGTH TRAINING

  TOP 4 ESSENTIAL EXERCISES FOR STRENGTH TRAINING DYING TO KNOW THE KEY TO SERENE SLEEP?
