Rihanna is full of self-love, whether she is super thin or curvy. She loves being "thicc," and would rather have bootylicious body than be stick. "You want to have a butt, then you have a gut," she told British Vogue in 2018. "I'm about to get back into the gym and stuff, and I hope I don't lose m" backside "or my hips or all of my thighs. I'll lose some but not all. And I think of my" chest "like, 'Imma lose everything, everything goes!'"

Exercise Regularly

Rihanna, who has trained with Ary Nuñez and Harley Pasternak, has a strong workout ethic. Per Pasternak the star follows his 5 factor plan. "It's a workout made up of five phases, which starts off with a cardio warm-up for at least five minutes," he told Fashion. "Rihanna loves to ride on a stationary bike, whereas some people will jog, walk, run stairs. Phase two is an upper-body resistance exercise, such as a back row or a shoulder raise. Phase 3 is a lower body exercise, like a skater lunge or a hamstring curl. Phase 4 is an abdominal movement like a side bend or a trunk twist. Phase 5 is a cardio cool-down for at least five minutes. So she'll do a continuous circuit, and each day of the week we do different body parts."

Rihanna has trained with Lagree Fitness founder Sebastian Lagree and his former wife Dede, per BET, doing supraformer training sessions. "The method is different, because it is the ultimate fitness workout. You don't have to do anything else. What is really unique is that it is for everybody, so you could have all the fitness experience or you could have never worked out in your life. It is a high-intensity, low-impact workout, which is really hard to find. You can be a total beginner and you are going to get like the best work out in your life and burn a crazy amount of calories. It is just the most effective workout on planet Earth, and it is great for women because you don't bulk," Dede told the publication.

Rihanna is a "moody" eater, per Solomon "[With previous clients] I would send in a menu on a Sunday or Monday and they would pick for the week, and then I'd be able to shop and prep, but this is nothing like that. We don't know what we're gonna want to eat tomorrow, so why even pick today?" she told Bon Appetit
