She Does A Boxing Inspired Workout

Ciara tells Shape that her trainer, Gunnar Peterson, likes to do workouts with her that are influenced by boxing, and that hit multiple parts of her body. "Gunnar puts me through an hour-long plyometric cardio circuit that always includes boxing elements. What's amazing is that you're getting three-in-one training: It's hitting your muscles; it's a cardiovascular workout; and it's a mental exercise. You have to be superfocused when you're boxing. After I've done a few rounds, I feel as if I can conquer the world."

Ciara says to InStyle that she doesn't like any extreme diets. "I think the discovery that you can enjoy all the good food that's out there is always kind of eye-opening and enlightening for people because typically you think you have to do these extreme plans, where you're basically only eating grass or you're not eating much besides celery and carrots, you know?" She says that she's a fan of Weight Watchers for this reason.
