Kacey Musgraves in Bikini Is “Livin la Vida Loca”
Kacey Musgraves is living her best life in her bikini. In a new social media post, the country singer flaunts her amazing figure in a tiny bathing suit while vacationing in the tropics. “livin la vida loca,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps and videos. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
She Exercises
Exercise is a priority for Kacey. She trains with celebrity trainer Erin Oprea, who told PureWow she puts in her time at the gym. “Kacey has worked her butt off and I couldn’t be prouder of her. We’ve been able to keep her on track with the crazy schedule she’s had over the last couple years,” Opera said.
She Does Tabata Style Workouts
“Some workouts that we’ve loved doing that can be done on the bus are Tabatas. I also love turning fitness into a game because why not make it fun but still challenging?” Oprea told PureWow about Kacey’s workout of choice. “Tabatas are a four-minute workout that involves 20-second bursts of exercise followed by 10 secs of rest for 8 rounds. You can do so much with it.” Here is an example:
- Round one: Pushups
- Round two: Plank with chest taps
- Repeat rounds one and two until you complete eight rounds.
She Does Sumo Squats
Kacey does sumo squats, an effective but difficult exercise that works the glutes. To keep it fun, Oprea has Musgraves play this Sumo Squat game.
- Complete ten small sumo squat jumps (a sumo squat is just like a regular squat but your stance is wider than hip-width and feet and knees are pointing outward )
- Hold your squat for ten seconds in the down position
- Complete nine sumo squat jumps
- Hold in the down position for ten seconds
- Complete eight sumo squat jumps
- Hold in the down position for ten seconds and repeat this formula until you get down to a single rep.
She Also Does Barre Workouts
Musgraves told Us magazine that she also likes Pure Barre. When she is traveling, she brings the DVD with her. “I can do the workouts everywhere.” she said. “Barre helps strengthen and tone your muscles without increasing bulk, and it improves your posture. It also increases cardiovascular endurance and metabolism, which helps to quickly burn calories. Regular barre workouts can increase your bone density, which can help prevent conditions like osteoporosis,” explains Barre studio Physique 57.
She Follows the 4 x 4 Diet
Kacey enjoys Oprea’s 4 x 4 diet, “a clean, healthy, balanced lifestyle so that they can still enjoy the foods they love, but in moderation.” She can drink alcohol, except in the week leading up to an award show. “I’m not saying you can drink as much alcohol as you want, but I try to limit them to two drinks a week, which a lot of people are like, ‘Oh jeez! I need wine every night, that’s bologna!’ But literally you can do that.”
