Karol G is having a blast in her bathing suit in Hawaii. In a new social media post the singer shows off her amazing body in a bunch of swimsuits while lounging on the beach in the tropics. “What a life changer!” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. “I love you. We had a great time. ❤️ Unforgettable,” commented one of her friends. How does the 32-year-old approach health and fitness? Celebwell rounded up her top health habits.
1. Rest
Karol prioritizes self-care and rest. “On my free days I try to rest,” she told People en Espanol. Why do you need to get proper 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. CrossFit
Karol’s go-to workout is CrossFit, a form of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) that focuses on improving strength, endurance, and body composition. However, it can result in injury if not done properly. The involvement of well-educated coaches decreases injury rate. “I do workout circuits. If there is a great gym at the hotel then I'll lift weights, but we usually bring our own elastic bands. My training is more focused on CrossFit,” she explained.
3. No Strict Diets

“I don't like diets that are extremely strict,” Karol confessed to People. She eats carbohydrates once a day, at lunch time, and loads up on lean protein, veggies, and salad. She avoids consuming too much dairy but eats granola with Greek yogurt twice a week. She also keeps unhealthy sweets at bay. “I don't eat any desserts,” she told People.
4. Prayer
Karol is all about prayer. “I say, ‘Thank you God for this,' because I do believe a lot in God,” she explained. “I think that everything that happens in my life is a miracle. My spiritual side in life is having my family near me,” she added. “That connection with my family is what gives me the spirituality to stay happy. My relationship with my boyfriend is also very special to me.”
5. Cheat Days
Karol takes cheat days. “You have to have a balance,” she told People. “I have an insulin problem and maintaining a good weight for me is super stressful.” Her favorite cheat meal is French fry pizza. “I don't eat fast food like burgers, but I will eat a nice steak with mash potatoes and veggies,” she told People.
