She Uses A Gua Sha

In a TikTok, Lizzo broke down her skincare routine and favorite products. She revealed that she likes to use a gua sha, which helps move lymphatic fluids and circulate blood. "Shout out to everyone who's been on my gua sha journey with me," she said. "I still be doing it wrong. Y'all still love me and support me. I haven't been able to gua sha in like a week because I was sick and I had a cold, but I still feel like I've had the best results and I love it."

Lizzo has been open about her approach with confidence and body positivity. In one of her TikToks, she revealed that she had reached a large milestone. "Now let me tell you. I was always too insecure — well, not too insecure, but too self-conscious — to work out in shorts," the singer started. "Also my thigh meat chafes, so I was like, 'why do that?' But today I'm working out in shorts and I'm gonna keep it real with y'all: not much has changed, physically, about myself, but a lot has changed here, mentally. Here, emotionally."

Lizzo has been open about her body journey and her decision to start working out more. And she also doesn't care what anyone has to say about her. "Hey, so I've been working out consistently for the last five years and it may come as a surprise to some of y'all that I'm not working out to have your ideal body type. I'm working out to have my ideal body type," she said in a TikTok. "And you know what type that is? None of your f—ing business because I am beautiful, I am strong, I do my job and I stay on my job."

Lizzo isn't just about working out her body. She also wants to make sure her mental health and wellbeing are okay as well. In the same TikTok, she stated, "Health is not just determined on what you look like on the outside. Health is also what happens on the inside."

She Strength Trains

Lizzo posts a lot of workout videos on TikTok. One type of exercise that the singer likes to do in particular is strength train. In this video, she is seen doing hamstring pulls, pushing and pulling a weighted cart, and kettlebell squats. She captioned the video, "The best transformations are the ones only you can see." A hamstring stretch can be great. "In general, when you're stretching, keep it gentle. Breathe freely as you hold each stretch for around 30 seconds. Try not to hold your breath. Don't bounce or hold a painful stretch. Expect to feel tension while you're stretching. If you feel pain, you've gone too far," says the Mayo Clinic.
