Few people can hope to boast the kind of bod that Pink has been flaunting recently. The 30-year-old star has never looked better after dropping a whopping nine kilos since her temporary split with hubby Carey Hart (they’re back together, FYI). The Fun House singer credits her new look to her boot camp-style workout routine, which includes Tony Horton’s P90X Home Fitness Workout Program. The DVD of 12 workouts is designed to reshape your body in 90 days and has fast become a favourite with Hollywood A-listers including tweethearts Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore, and Twilight hunks Taylor Lautner and Kellan Lutz.
Follow in Pink’s footsteps by combining the P90X workout with daily running (on the beach is best) to create your own SAS-style, fitness boot camp...
The workout
Pink’s washboard abs and toned arms are the results of regular and rigorous training. Gracing the cover of Women’s Health this month, she tells the magazine, “I like results. I like feeling strong.”
And boot camp-style workouts are perfect for those who are also looking for significant results. The variation between weight, cardio and flexibility training helps to sculpt your body and improve overall health. Like Pink, throw some yoga into the mix for that extra bit of stretching and core strengthening and you could get that beach bod you’ve always dreamed of.
Bye-bye treadmill
Another advantage to boot camp training, aside from the incredible results it promises, is that you no longer have to do the boring, repetitive exercises associated with most workout plans. With boot camp, there’s always something different and you never quite know what’s coming next. This helps to keep you stimulated and interested, and never allows your weight to plateau, according to the P90X program’s creator Tony Horton.
