Edurne García is getting ready to perform – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the singer shows off her incredible body – including her flat abs – in a two-piece workout ensemble. “👯👯 We continue with the rehearsals 👯👯ONLY 4 DAYS FOR 💫💫 NOTHING 💫💫,” she captioned the post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and wellness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
1. Sleep
Edurne has a “super basic routine,” she explained to Club Influencers. The core of it? Getting enough rest. “First of all, sleep 8 hours. It is necessary to perform all day, especially when you have children. Plus, when I juggle as many projects as I do now, my body asks for it,” she says. What are the health benefits of sleep? According to the Sleep Foundation, getting enough z’s is a mood booster, promotes heart health, regulates blood sugar, improves mental function, restores your immune system, helps relieve stress, and aids in weight loss.
2. Reading

Edurne loves to unwind and relax with a book. “I enjoy many hobbies but right now, without a doubt, a good book,” she says. 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.
3. “Super Healthy” Diet
“I also usually eat super healthy and balanced (although I allow myself my whims),” she told Club Influencers. “I take care of my diet without obsessing and I drink a lot of water especially now in summer, essential!" she added to Hola. “I sincerely eat everything, but I always try to make up for it, when one day I eat too much the next I make up for it with something lighter, but I take good care of it.”
4. Personal Trainer Workouts
Edurne puts in time at the gym. "I usually go to the gym at least twice a week or with my personal trainer," she told Hola "If I go alone I usually do some kind of cardio or cycle, which I love! And when I go with my trainer I do full-body toning exercises and stretches.” Each week adults need 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity and 2 days of muscle-strengthening activity, according to the current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans.
5. Dancing
Edurne moves even when she can’t get a workout in. “Of course sport is essential, if I can't go to the gym, I swim, walk, dance," she added to Hola. "The important thing is to always be on the move.” Dancing is a great workout for many reasons. Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.
