We all know celebrities look their best at all times. But do you know that it rarely comes naturally, especially when you’re a certain age?
So looking fit and stunning requires full-time commitment and dedication. It’s hard work, time-consuming and may be expensive at times, but that’s what motivates us, and that’s what makes celebrities our role models.
beyonce.com proves that she is always in the spotlight and looks ravishing:
Beyonce’s lemonade diet
Gabby Landsverk reports on insider.com:
When she’s not on tour, she sticks to an intake of 1600 calories a day. It’s a diet of lean protein and healthy carbs (vegetables, fruit, nuts, legumes, whole grains, etc.).
There were times when she needed to lose weight in a short period. When Bey starred in the 2006 movie “Dreamgirls” she committed to the role entirely. The singer wanted to show how her character aged over the time. She lost 20 pounds in two weeks!
How did she do that?
She followed the Master Cleanse or Lemonade Diet, which is now known as The Beyonce Diet.
This diet became very popular with other celebrities, like Angelina Jolie, Naomi Campbell, and Gwyneth Paltrow. But be sure to use this diet only in case you need to lose weight rapidly and be aware that there is a danger of binge eating when you finish this diet.
Erica Julson states on healthline.com that pressure may return fast, so do not be too discouraged about the result.
Queen B also tried the 22-day vegan challenge with her husband, Jay-Z. The problem is based on a book by her trainer, the afore-mentioned Marco Borges. The book is called “The 22-day Revolution”, Beyonce even wrote a foreword to it:
After completing this challenge, the Carters went back to eating meat. Beyonce stated:
Beyonce recently gave birth to twins, Rumi and Sir. She had scheduled a show 3threemonths after and was in a hurry to get her body back. It was hard for her because of her health issues.
She had to undergo a cesarean, and it took her time to recover from it. However, she looked stunning during her first post-partum concert. After that, she went to Coachella.
Conclusion: eat fit and exercise
Beyonce is undoubtedly a public persona, with over 117 million subscribers on Instagram, constantly touring, filming music videos and being an object of scrutiny and she still manages to slay with her looks. She must always look her best, and this means going hard on yourself.
Even if it means running 6 miles a day or practicing your dance routine for 9 hours.
However, one must not forget that feeling comfortable in one’s own skin is a top priority. Beyonce encourages her fans to love their bodies. Moderation is key to success, that’s how Beyonce is able to balance her workout routine, her job, and her family and still look hot as ever!
Chelsey Sanchez tells on harpersbazaar.com Beyonce’s words about 22-day Marco Borges workout:
How comprehensive lifestyle improvement is.
In other words, eat right, move more, worry less and love more.
Many people imagine high-tech and expensive medicine. They immediately come to mind with new medication, laser or endoscopic surgery. So, it is often incredibly difficult for people to believe that a comprehensive improvement in lifestyle can change life so much. But that is what happens most often.
Moreover, the general improvement of lifestyle in many cases proved to be useful not only for the prevention of various chronic diseases. But it is also valid for their treatment.
People often say:
Actually, you can. The realization that a true lifestyle can help to influence the genes often gives much-needed motivation to all of us.
Genes determine the predispositions of the organism. But they do not decide the fate of a person. Our latest research has found that such a diet, together with other lifestyle enhancements, may even contribute to the lengthening of telomeres.
There are the “tips” of our chromosomes that control the aging process.
This approach is very different from that adopted in personalized medicine. There are no separate recommendations for the treatment of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, gene alterations, and telomere lengthening.
In all of our research:
We only asked participants to follow a plant-based diet that only of natural and whole foods. It is similar to that described in this book. It is as if the body itself knows how it is better for it to recover if you provide it with the right raw materials through healthy nutrition and lifestyle.
This approach is not a strict set of rules, without the meticulous observance of which you cannot count on any positive result. All our studies have shown that better people improve their diet and lifestyle, the better they feel, and at any age.
If you allow yourself to overeat today, then take care of your diet tomorrow.
Beyonce’s workout routine
veganfoodandliving.com reports: Beyonce trusts her body to her trainer, Marco Borges:
He developed a workout method that will help her save time since she’s always on the move. The main trick is that you work for a few muscle groups simultaneously. Examples of such exercises are reverse lunge presses, jumping lunges and squatting with dumbells.
She also complains about her legs continually being bruised.
She has quite a rigorous work out by doing pilates for an hour a day (a fitness system consisting of precise movements designed to strengthen your core) and cardio (mostly treadmill). When she’s not on tour – she runs up to six miles a day! She trains for five days a week.
Despite having to work out, she rehearses her dancing (Queen B is known to be a devout perfectionist and does a lot of dancing before letting people see her routine). She does this seven days a week, sometimes up to 9 hours a day! It takes a lot of stamina, and she admits that staying fit is indeed hard work.
People’s reviews
Peculiarities of Beyonce lemonade diet
It lasts a maximum of two weeks, during this time you can lose up to 9 kilograms. Also, sticking to it longer is not recommended. Because it can be hazardous to health. You can repeat it a couple of times a year, no more.
The main advantage of such a diet is Beyonce. Because looking at her, you can limit yourself to food even for these ten days. Also, you clean the body, remove toxins, replenish the balance of some vitamins.
However, it is strictly contraindicated for people with stomach ulcers, its high acidity, and heart disease.
Even though the lemonade diet has become known thanks to Beyonce, she is not at all its founder. There was such a diet almost three decades ago. But its popularity in Hollywood, and later in the whole world, was due to the sultry Latin woman.
By the way, star nutritionists are not at all delighted with such an extreme form of losing weight. But sometimes beauty requires sacrifice.
