Chiara Ferragni in Workout Top Poses in the UAE

Chiara Ferragni is flaunting her washboard abs in a workout top. In a recent social media post the blogger and influencer shows off her amazing body in a crop top while visiting the UAE. How does the newly single star approach diet, fitness, and self care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. Coffee

"I absolutely love coffee – it's a whole ritual in the morning and such a pleasure to have it after lunch," Chiara told Elles. "My most indulgent coffee break is when I drink iced coffee in the summer, I love the taste and the feeling of enjoying something as cold and strong. I'm very into coffees to go, that's a habit I developed when I was living in L.A. in my twenties and that I have kept to this day, in Italy, with my travel mug or at my favorite Italian coffee shop." According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

"I try and be healthy wherever I am," she told HOLA. "I am trying to work out more, but it's not always possible as I don't have enough time or energy. “ When she does work out, she opts for higher intensity workouts. “Last week in Milan I tried the new Zoom in 5 workout with the Nike‘s N + TC app, perfect for 5 minutes warm-up sessions of high intensity cardio training even for those like me that don’t have so much time for training. The perfect workout at your fingertips!” she wrote in a blog.

3. Reading

Chiara is a reader. “Sister bookclub,” she captioned a post. One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years compared with people who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

4. Skiing

Chiara is a skier. “Spent such a beautiful weekend at @hotellerie_de_mascognaz, a dislocated hotel restored on an ancient village from 1300 in Ayas valley in the middle of nowhere,” she captioned a post. Research has linked downhill skiing to a number of health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress and the occurrence of memory deficits declines.

5. Not a Lot of Alcohol

Chiara doesn’t drink her calories. “I try to eat well, not drink too much, maybe a little wine, but no spirits,” she told HOLA.
