Another of Lipa’s favorite exercises is boxing, and she tries to fit it in when she has time. Lipa told BeautyCrew.com, "I love boxing in my spare time. I like doing it for fitness [and] I like doing it just to kinda clear my mind. I really enjoy it. I like that it's definitely a full body workout. Since starting boxing I've probably been in the best shape ever. It's also a great stress reliever."

3. She Experiments With Workouts When She’s On The Road

Even with touring, traveling, and a busy schedule, Lipa always tries to find time to exercise. Lipa says to Marie Claire that when she travels, she likes to change up her workouts and try new things. “When you're on a tour bus, every day and every place is different, so you never know what you're going to find. That's always one way to keep it interesting."

4. She Treats Herself

Lipa says that while she tries to eat healthy, she doesn’t deprive herself of a treat once in a while. "I try and stay as healthy as possible whenever I can," Lipa told The Urban List."I'm never one to stop myself having treats, I do love naughty treats. But I try and limit it to days when I'm not as busy, because if I do eat a doughnut it usually puts me in a food coma!"

5. She Focuses Her Core

Lipa is known for her incredible abs, and she told The Urban List that she does a lot of core workouts to maintain them. "I think different variations of crunches like bicycle crunches are good. Leg raises are also great unless my back hurts. Planks are good although almost certainly my least favourite!"

6. She Dances During Her Live Performances

Dua Lipa used to get made fun of on social media for her dancing.“There were so many things, especially when you start out, like a video of me dancing and they’re like, ‘Ah well, she has no stage presence’—but they’d never been to one of my shows, they’d never seen me perform.They would take one small snippet and run with it and it would become a whole thing,” she told Attitude. However, when performing songs from her album Future Nostalgia, fans noticed that Lipa’s dancing had improved greatly, and that her choreography had gotten a lot more difficult. Lipa said those nasty comments made her want to work harder and improve her dancing. "It was a tough time. But I’m also so grateful for the experience because I became so much stronger. I became so much more confident after that. Now I know what I’m good at; I know how to be good at what I do; [and] I know how much work it takes to be good at what I do.”

7. She Made A Workout Video To Her Song “Physical”

Dua Lipa’s second single from her album Future Nostalgia is called “Physical.” And she decided to make a workout video for that song, channelling Olivia Newton-John and inspired by ‘80s workout classes. According to a study, high-tempo songs like “Physical” can make working out a lot easier. “We found that listening to high-tempo music while exercising resulted in the highest heart rate and lowest perceived exertion compared with not listening to music," says Professor Luca P. Ardigò of the University of Verona. “This means that the exercise seemed like less effort, but it was more beneficial in terms of enhancing physical fitness.”
