Lorde is eating watermelon in her bikini. In a new social media post, the Man of the Year singer shows off her washboard abs in a swimsuit while noshing on fruit and teasing her latest song. “Virgin in ten days another song in a few,” she captioned the Instagram post. “MOTHERRRR,” one of her followers commented. “I love you my life,” added another. How does the 28-year-old approach health and wellness? Here is everything you need to know about her diet and fitness routine.
Exercise
Allison Kimmel, the singer’s trainer, explained that Lorde doesn’t have a set workout schedule. “Lorde’s concert tour was a total whirlwind. We didn’t always have the perfect schedule for training. If we had 30 minutes between things to squeeze in a workout or a stretch, we made it work,” Kimmel told Women’s Health. “Other times, we had over an hour and could extend her warm-up or add some extra cardio sets.”
A Combination of Cardio, Barre, Pilates, and Yoga
According to Kimmel, Lored’s workout starts with a 15-minute jog or other cardio followed by an “uptempo yoga-inspired” warm-up. “After that, we would get into our main sets which were comprised of traditional strength exercises, combined with barre and Pilates.”

Lorde recently told Vogue that after spending the last few years in Auckland, she has come into herself, and it has to do with spending time outdoors. “I was so serious and shy and tough. And I think that coming home, having a second record under the belt, I just felt like I could relax and play,” she said. “I don’t know—something started to happen, and it was all to do with spending time outside.”

Lorde loves herself from the inside out. “When I said I felt young for the first time—it meant feeling like I’m confident enough to put my butt out there. I wouldn’t have been able to do that as a teenager,” she explains. “When you’re really famous as a young person, feelings get magnified. At that time, people were discussing my body on Twitter, and the natural response was to shrink away from it. Now I have a sense of my worth and my power, and my body is—awesome, for one thing. But it’s also not as central as my brain is to the whole operation. I don’t think you could make me feel bad about myself now by saying something about my body, but that’s the difference between 16 and 24.”
Stretching
Lorde stretches. “I do lots of stretching, because when I perform my limbs fly all over the place,” she said. “The boys laugh at me lunging across the room,” Lorde told The Guardian about her pre-show ritual. “I’m a very physical performer. I fill space with the movement of my hands, my arms, my head, my stance, and that all helps communicate what I’m talking about.”
