Christina Milian in Two-Piece Workout Gear Says "Let's Go!" (2024)

Christina Milian is back at the gym – in her sports bra and workout shorts. In a new social media post the singer shows off her amazing body in athletic gear while setting her exercise goals. "Been a while since I've posted one of these but seems every time I publically [sic] share my fitness goals I tend to stick with it. I think it's an accountability thing. Last week I was off to a great start both food and workout and the weekend came and I did like Elsa and « Let it go!!!" she wrote in the caption. "SO.. let's get this party started (still have fun).. but get to the goals! Build muscle and get lean is where my mind is at «more shredded than a julien [sic] salad » iykyk 😭 LETS GO!" How does the singer approach diet and fitness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

"When your stomach feels full, do not eat past that," Christina told People. "I try to only have a certain amount of calories per day but eat right so I can keep my energy up," she added. She starts her day with Bustelo espresso and eats an egg white breakfast burrito with spinach, tomatoes, and turkey bacon for breakfast. A few hours later she snacks on a handful of almonds. For lunch she eats a chicken salad with cranberries, tomatoes, and a light champagne dressing, and for dinner, two pieces each of yellowtail, jalapeño salmon and albacore sushi. Her grand calorie total for the day? Just 1,190. She also tries to maintain a low-dairy diet "to avoid cellulite," she tells People.

"I try to drink as close to a gallon of water a day," Christina told People. "Hydration is how I keep my skin clear and my body energized throughout the day." According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

"Sometimes I get completely focused and I'll go in and work out— sometimes even twice a day— at least three times a week because I'm so excited and really into it. There's other times when my schedule gets really crazy and I have to figure out when to fit it in. And then sometimes I'm just lazy— and it's okay to be lazy. That's balance for me," she told Essence. "I also like to do a combination of cardio and strength training. I've never really been crazy about bootcamps and CrossFit; those are too rough for me."

Christina enjoys al fresco workouts. "I love outdoor workouts. In LA I'll hike up the Canyons at a steady pace; something that gets my heart rate going." According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:

• Building stronger muscles and bones
• Improving your sense of balance
• Improving your heart health
• Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems

"Working out," makes Christina feel confident, she told Essence. "For me, if I'm not in the right shape, I'm tired. I don't have the energy to do the things I like to do, which gets a little bit depressing. Working out is great therapy too. When I workout I pray. In that moment, I am thankful because of my health and how my blood is flowing because all of that stuff is going to keep me around longer."
