Camila Cabello Stuns in Two-Piece Workout Gear Saying "Everything’s Fleeting"

Camila Cabello is back in the rehearsal studio – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the singer shows off her flat abs in a crop top and pants, while practicing her dance moves. “Everything’s fleeting 🩰💘🩰💘,” she captioned the post. “Mamma miaaa🔥🔥🔥,” commented one of her followers. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. Strength Training and HIIT

Cabello relies on personal trainer Jenna Willis to keep her body in shape. Willis dished on her star client to Shape, revealing that they train together 2 to 3 times a week focusing on strength training, HIIT, and balance exercises. This includes complex movements that target the whole body and exercises such as bird dogs to fire hydrants, squat hops, high plank shoulder taps, and glute bridges with dumbbell pullovers, in addition to bodyweight squats and crunches.

2. Dancing

Cabello, who spends a lot of time dancing, makes sure to infuse dance moves into her workouts. “We end up getting in an added ab workout because of how much we end up laughing,” Willis told Shape. “Somehow she manages to keep me on my toes and turn every cardio move into an incredible-looking dance move.”

3. Healthy Diet

Camila’s ex, Shawn Mendes, “influenced” her to be healthier and got her more focused on produce. “I was not healthy at all before. I never ate vegetables before. Just like, easy vegetables like cucumbers or cold carrots with cesar. Which I wouldn’t say are hard vegetables,” she told BBC Radio.

4. Meditation

Camila is also a believer in the power of meditation, which “changed” her life, she wrote on Instagram. “I didn’t share this with you guys at the time because honestly I was just trying to be okay, but I was experiencing severe anxiety. it was meditation- it was practicing every single day multiple times a day that has been healing me, and, more than just helping me manage strong emotions like anxiety and stress, it’s making me a better human. not only does it help in times like this with stress and anxiety, meditation is the practice of strengthening habits like empathy, love, and compassion- making you feel more connected to not only everybody around you , but living beings in general like animals, plants, and the earth, which is a living being, itself.” “When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress,” says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:

• Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
• Building skills to manage your stress
• Increasing self-awareness
• Focusing on the present
• Reducing negative emotions
• Increasing imagination and creativity
• Increasing patience and tolerance
• Lowering resting heart rate
• Lowering resting blood pressure
• Improving sleep quality

5. Hiking

When she has time off, you can find Camila hiking. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems.

6. Paddleboarding

Camila enjoys standup paddle boarding. “Nothin to do nowhere to be,” she captioned a paddleboarding snap. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio.

Camila Cabello, who’s first name is actually Karla, was born in Cuba and originally part of the group Fifth Harmony before breaking off and becoming a solo artist. She has worked hard to reach near-icon status, and she plays hard, too. "Ready pa el veranooo," she captioned a new swimsuit photo. (Rough translation: "Ready for the summer.") How does she stay so fit?

1. Camila Knows The Importance of Warming Up

Whether she’s weightlifting or doing cardio, she always takes the time to warm up before intense workouts to avoid injury. Proper warm-ups can not only help loosen stiff muscles, but it can help with performance, increased blood flow, and more. And: "Cooling down after your workout allows for a gradual recovery of preexercise heart rate and blood pressure. Cooling down may be most important for competitive endurance athletes, such as marathoners, because it helps regulate blood flow. Cooling down doesn't appear to help reduce muscle stiffness and soreness after exercise, but more research is needed," says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Tailors Her Diet To Her Workout

Camila knows the importance of nutrition to accompany working out. You can feel sluggish and foggy if you’re not getting enough nutrients to replenish your body after an intense cardio sweat sesh. "If you are in good shape and want to fuel a daily, light-intensity workout, eat about 3 to 5 grams of carbohydrates for every kilogram of body weight. For someone who weighs 150 pounds (68 kilograms) that's between 200 and 340 grams a day," says the Mayo Clinic.

3. Body Positivity Is Big With Her

She’s really into body positivity and feeling good about herself. “I was just running in the park minding my own business trying to be fit, trying to keep it healthy. And I am wearing a top that shows my belly,” she said. “And I wasn’t tucking it in, because I was running and existing like a normal person that doesn’t tuck it in all the time. And I was like," Darn. "But then I reminded myself being at war with your body is so last season,” Camila continued. “I am grateful for this body that lets me do what I need to do. We are real women with curves and cellulite and stretch marks and fat. And we gotta own that, baby.”

4. She Puts Emphasis On Form

Paying attention to good form when doing strength training or cardio can make workouts more effective and help to avoid injury. Camila is an active performer, getting plenty of exercise on stage, so it’s important to pay attention to doing the workouts correctly.

5. She Does Weight Training

Camila does full body strength training workouts where she tones her muscles to stay in shape. She does bench pressing, dumbbell curves, cable exercises, and more to keep her body lean and fit. “If you’re going to venture into something and you want to see good outcomes, an investment in any type of coach to get you started with the fundamentals is well worth your time. Work with someone who has a strong level of expertise and the ability to evaluate your needs as an individual. That’s a tremendous recommendation for getting started,” says personal training coordinator Scott Crabiel to the Cleveland Clinic.

If you want Camila Cabello’s abs, you are going to have to work for them. In some new Insatgram posts, she showed that she's done the Tough Mudder endurance challenge with friends. How does she stay so fit? Earlier this month, she shared by the star and her trainer, Jenna Willis, the Señorita singer crushed her outdoor ab workout like a pro. “5 Min upper body & #AbFinisher for all of you to try that @camila_cabello is crushing,” Willis wrote over the video. What are the three simple moves responsible for her toned midsection? Read on to see the three ab exercises Camila Cabello does to stay in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. Camila Knows Teamwork Makes the Dreamwork

Cabello conquered the Tough Mudder challenge with the help of her friends. "Every Tough Mudder course features the most innovative obstacles in the industry, they are designed to push participants out of their comfort zone and to challenge their physical strength and mental grit. With obstacles that simply cannot be conquered without teamwork, Tough Mudder isn't about how fast you can get around the course, rather how many people you can help along the way," says the brand.

2. Up Down Plank Jacks

The first exercise Camila demonstrates? Up down plank jacks, an exercise inspired by both planks and jumping jacks. Willis suggests doing the move for 40 seconds, taking a 20 second break, and then repeating. “This one is no joke,” Willis says. “Girly pop.”

3. Plank Reach Foot Tap

Exercise number two? Plank reach foot tape. “Yes, reach all the way up and back, beautiful,” Willis tells Cabello. “The more you reach, the more you feel.”

4. Plank Saw

The last ab exercise in the set that Cabello completes is the plank saw. Again, 40 seconds of the exercise, followed by a 20 second rest, and then repeat. “Saw it out baby,” Willis encourages her.

5. Most of Camila’s Workouts Can Be Done Anywhere

In a recent interview with Shape, Willis revealed that the workouts she develops for her star client require hardly any equipment and can be done anywhere. "Naturally, Camila is always on the go so we've tailored our workouts to fit that busy lifestyle," she said. "This means a lot of our workouts include minimal equipment that focus on strength, HIIT, and balance (including complex movements that target the whole body)."

6. Camila Makes Exercise Fun

Camila has fun with exercise. "We end up getting in an added ab workout because of how much we end up laughing," Willis told Shape about their workouts. "Somehow she manages to keep me on my toes and turn every cardio move into an incredible-looking dance move." There are two ways that exercise burns fat. The first is the obvious one: as you sweat your way through a workout, your body uses an elevated number of calories to power you along. Those calories are derived first from the glycogen stored in your muscles and then, as that becomes depleted, from the fat stored in your belly and elsewhere. And an abs workout simply isn’t an efficient way to burn calories. Three sets of thirty sit-ups may be awkward, painful, and annoying, but calorie-burning? Not so much. But the second and more significant way in which exercise helps lead to a lean body is by increasing the amount of muscle in your body.

Singer Camila Cabello is no stranger to shining bright. Now she's doing that literally.

2. She Remembers To Stretch
