1. Plant-Based Diet

The Masked Singer judge broke down her diet in a 2020 interview with People and revealed she eats a lot of plant-based foods. Melissa Mitri, a Registered Dietitian for FinvsFin.com says, "A plant-based diet is loaded with beneficial nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Fiber is essential for weight loss and supports a strong heart. Many plant-based foods are also loaded with antioxidants and phytochemicals, health-promoting plant compounds that support optimal health. The high fiber content of plant-based foods helps support a healthy weight. Fiber aids in digestion and provides bulk, therefore helps keep you full. If you're full and satisfied, you're more likely to stick to your diet plan and not overeat."

2. Everything in Moderation

Scherzinger doesn't deprive herself of anything, but rather enjoys a healthy balanced diet. She told Women's Health, "When I'm going to indulge, I love pasta, pizza, I love Mexican with lots of cheese. I love French fries, or [chips]," Mitri explains, "Allowing cheat days or cheat meals provides balance and reduces feelings of restriction. If your diet is too restrictive where you don't allow your favorite foods, it can increase your risk of overeating and weight regain over time. Maintaining a balance of enjoying your favorite foods in moderation will help keep the weight off. This is because you will not feel like you're on a diet, so you'll be less likely to veer off your plan or overeat."

3. She’s a Yogi

The singer enjoys doing yoga and has recently posted pics of her doing impressive poses.

TJ Mentus, an ACE Certified Personal Trainer, Certified USA Weightlifting Level 1 Coach and review board at Garage Gym Reviews says, "Yoga has many benefits. It is a great way to stretch the muscles and improve movement while learning to be more in tune with the body. The joints and muscles will receive a lot of physical benefit from this as it helps them to recover and increase blood flow through them. Mentally, yoga is helpful because it requires complete attention as many of the poses are challenging, unfamiliar, and may need balance. This helps to relieve mental stress as the mind becomes fully engaged with the task at hand. At the same time, muscular tension and stress are being reduced as well."

4. She Hikes

Scherzinger often posts pics of her hiking and Janet Coleman, a registered dietitian with The Consumer Mag says, "Hiking is one of the best ways to stay in shape without putting stress on your joints or straining your muscles. The reason hiking works so well for weight loss and fitness is because of the wide range of benefits and actions it promotes in the human body. As a result, this activity has gained popularity amongst fitness experts, health gurus, and enthusiasts alike. So, hiking is an excellent way to keep weight off of your body, promote overall health and fitness, and allow you to spend some quality time in nature."

5. Switches Up Her Workouts

The native Hawaiian has documented doing everything from swimming to lifting weights to help stay in shape. Coleman shares, "If you’re looking to lose weight, spending time working on your health and fitness is an excellent idea. After all, the benefits of exercise are plentiful from keeping your heart strong to boosting your mood. But in order to make sure that you’re getting the most from your workout routine, you should mix up your exercise methods from time to time. Keep reading to learn more about the benefits of changing up your workout routine, as well as the best ways to go about doing so."

Nicole Scherzinger celebrated Valentine’s Day with her boyfriend of two years, Scottish rugby player Thom Evans—at least virtually. Scherzinger posted an adorable video of the two of them doing a slow dance together, waves in the background, captioned "Happy Valentine's Day." Later, she posed pictures of herself in a red heart dress. "Happy Valentines Day beauties," she captioned it. "Me and my top are sending you all our" love and happiness. In another, wearing the same dress, she winked at the camera. "Happy Valentine’s Day my love," she said to Evans. "Missing you." How does she stay so fit while having so much fun?

1. She Mixes It Up

Scherzinger says that she likes to do a lot of different exercises when it comes to working out. “In a typical workout I would run on the treadmill, maybe 20 mins, then try to do some squats, some sit-ups on the exercise ball, some yoga stretches,” she told Women's Health UK. Which muscles make the most sense to focus on? The answer is in your glutes: Our legs and backside contain some of the largest muscles in our body. As a result, they store—and burn—the most glycogen. An exercise routine that brings these large muscles into play will burn off larger amounts of glycogen, and cause a greater reduction in fat stores, than a routine in which you’re working your arms or chest, for example.

2. She Doesn’t Pressure Herself

When it comes to her diet, Scherzinger tells Us Weekly, that while she tries to eat healthy, she also doesn’t pressure herself to. “With growing older gracefully, you kind of just accept yourself more and more and you’re like, ‘These truffle fries are worth it,’ you know what I’m saying? ‘This cheese is pretty tasty.’”

3. She Meditates

Scherzinger told Us Weekly that she meditates regularly, and that it helps her de-stress from her busy schedule. “I think meditation and prayer is so important,” she says. “We don’t set aside enough time for ourselves to just let all of the noise and all of the dust and everything else settle and get back to the core of ourselves.” "Research has found that meditation may help reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. When combined with conventional medicine, meditation may improve physical health. For example, some research suggests meditation can help manage symptoms of conditions such as insomnia, heart disease, pain, cancer and digestive problems," says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Loves Hot Yoga

Scherzinger tells Getthegloss.com that one of her favorite ways to stay active is by going to a hot yoga class. “I just love the sweat,” she says. “I love that it pushes you in hot temperatures and I love the stretching side of it.” "Hot yoga is exactly what it sounds like — yoga practiced in a hot environment. Most hot yoga classes have an increased room temperature set anywhere between 90 and 105 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s quite a difference compared to normal room temperature (68 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit). Why so hot? The heat helps lubricate tendons and ligaments, making it easier to fold into certain stretches and poses," says the Cleveland Clinic.

5. She Has Supportive Friends

Scherzinger told Women’s Health UK, that she likes to workout with her friends, and that this is also extremely helpful for her. "Me and my girlfriends support each other for the gym. Because, you know, it’s hard to be motivated sometimes. We’ll go hiking one day and then we’ll try a sculpting hot yoga class, then we’ll do a cardio. We just motivate each other." "Try to recruit a friend who can tackle this exercise journey with you, suggests Christi Marraccini, CPT and instructor at NEOU. Not only will he or she hold you accountable for your exercise sessions (you won't want to leave anyone hanging!), it's also likely to make it more fun!" says our sister site Eat This, Not That!

Nicole Scherzinger is a lot of things, including singer, dancer, actress, Pussycat Doll, star of Annie Live!, The Masked Singer panelist, fitness icon and there's a word that sums up all those roles: empowering. She continues to empower in a photo she just posted. In it, Scherzinger stands in a body of water at sunset in a bathing suit. She captioned the photo, “Paint the sky and make it yours.” How does she stay so fit? And so mentally healthy?

1. She Got Help

In a revealing interview with The Guardian, Scherzinger opened up about her struggles with bulimia, and revealed that it was damaging her vocal cords. She said that that was the turning point for her to get help with her problems. “We all have a choice,” Scherzinger says. “We can choose to beat ourselves up or go back to those old patterns, or we can choose to learn and grow and evolve and be like: ‘I’m going to have to rewire my brain’.”

2. She Ignores the Haters

In her Guardian interview, Scherzinger also talked about online harassment that singers face. She says that she has dealt with a lot of haters, and her solution is just to ignore them and move forwards. “It’s not going to be a walk in the park. Anything that’s worth having is going to take work. And it comes with it, unfortunately – we all deal with it. Yeah. I just don’t go on the friggin’ internet!”

3. She Says You Have Purpose

Scherzinger spoke at the 2019 #MyYoungerSelf event for mental health awareness. She talked about what she would tell her younger self, and what mindset she uses when she’s gone through rough times.“You are precious and you have purpose. You’re going to go through a lot of pain and struggles in life but there is purpose. You’re going to go through a lot of pain and struggles in life but there is purpose in that pain and there’s a bigger plan. And when you go through those struggles and challenges it’s going to be preparing you and protecting you. And even though you feel like you don’t fit in it’s because you’re not meant to fit in, you’re meant to stand out. Just hold on, don’t give up. Don’t let anyone else, not even yourself, get in the way of who you are and who you were created to be.”

4. She Does A Variety Of Different Workouts

During the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns, Schcerzinger and her trainer, Paulo Mascitti did the singer’s at-home workout in a video for SHAPE.

Scherzinger and Mascitti do squats to overhead presses, squat jumps in different directions, lunges, and plank push-ups.

Nicole Scherzinger is sharing her “Monday Motivation” and it looks very, very cold. The 44-year-old singer posted a series of photos of herself laying down in an ice-cold bath, wearing nothing more than a one-piece swimsuit. “Monday Mood. Ice bath at 37 degrees Fahrenheit for 6 minutes 👊🏾 No pain. No gain,” she captioned the shot. How does she stay so fit?

Scherzinger loves to mix up her workouts to keep things interesting, and trains with Viking method instructor Svava Sigbertsdottir whenever she’s in the UK. “I love Svava’s technique,” Scherzinger says. “With me, she does a combination of her functional training, martial arts and ballet isolation exercises. In all my years of training, the Viking Method is unlike anything I have ever done.”

2. Oysters and Lemon

Scherzinger loves to eat fresh oysters, especially when she’s in New Orleans. “Yes, oysters are very good for you,” according to preventive cardiology dietitian Julia Zumpano, RD, LD. “In fact, you probably didn’t know that it’s hard to beat all the health benefits of oysters from a nutritional standpoint.”

3. She Loves To Surf

Scherzinger is a Hawaiian girl through and through, judging by her surfing skills. “Surfing can definitely be considered a form of interval training which combines short, high intensity bursts of speed with a recovery phase, repeated during exercise training,” says CSUSM professor Dr. Sean Newcomer.

4. She Snacks On Corn

Scherzinger loves to snack on corn on the cob with lots of butter. “Corn has many health benefits,” says Caitlin Terpstra, RD, LD. “It consists primarily of insoluble fiber, which makes it a low-glycemic index food. This means it is a food that is digested slowly and doesn't cause an unhealthy spike in blood sugar. It also contains many B vitamins, as well as essential minerals, including zinc, magnesium, copper, iron and manganese. Since corn is considered a starchy vegetable, people with diabetes need to keep in mind that a half cup of corn, or a small ear of corn, contains 15 grams of carbohydrate and counts as one carbohydrate food choice.”

5. She Works Out With Friends

Scherzinger loves to work out with her friends to stay motivated. "Me and my girlfriends support each other for the gym. Because, you know, it’s hard to be motivated sometimes, so when you go you push each other, we try to do different things. We’ll go hiking one day and then we’ll try a sculpting hot yoga class, then we’ll do cardio. We just motivate each other."

Nicole Scherzinger—when not appearing on The Masked Singer, winning Dancing with the Stars or being in one of the most popular girl groups of all time (The Pussycat Dolls)—can be quite profound. “Balance is not something you find,” she captioned a photo of herself, on Instagram, doing a handstand. “It’s something you create,” she said, tagging @trendingtravel.co.uk @mo_canouan #canouan. In another, she captioned her photo: “If you can see it and believe it, You can and will achieve it.” How has Nicole achieved such a fit look?

“I keep coconut oil and tea tree oil on me always.

When used topically, tea tree oil is believed to be antibacterial. Tea tree oil is commonly used to treat acne, athlete's foot, lice, nail fungus and insect bites,” says the Mayo Clinic.

After all, aerobic exercise can reduce health risks, keep excess pounds at bay, strengthen your heart and boost your mood. It can also reduce your risk of death from all causes,” says the Mayo Clinic.
