42 year old Grammy award winner, Mary. J Blige is looking fit and stunning on the cover of Shape Magazine. The songstress is gracing the December issue showing off her rock-hard abs in a white high-neck bikini. She looks unbelievably fabulous!
The singer who recently visited Nigeria revealed in the magazine that she is releasing a new holiday album and is determined to stay trim this holiday season. According to her, the secret to her powerful abs remains exercises.
“My main exercise is cardio,” she tells the mag. “The treadmill is fine but running outdoors gives me the best results. I try to log 6 to 8 miles a week. I could be in the worst mood, but when I do my cardio I feel much, much better.”
Blige confesses that getting older has changed her body, but switching up her workout routine helps her maintain her fit frame. She sticks to a combination of strength training and swimming to spice up her fitness plan, according to Euroweb. However, no one should forget about diet!
Mary cut out sugar for three weeks before her cover shoot and usually follows a gluten-free, dairy-free and low-carb diet plan. The singer also testified that she cut out alcohol after Whitney Houston’s death.
“Others may be able to drink and have a great time, but it doesn’t work for me at this point,” she explains. “I haven’t had a drink in a year and three months. I had quit for a long time but started again about five years ago. I’m off it completely once more, and now I feel stronger than ever.”
Blige’s December issue of Shape heads to the newsstands on Nov. 25. But can we talk about her abs?
