Pink Loves her “Man Abs” and Ranks her Body

Resident bad-ass of the music biz, Pink, opens up to Women’s Health magazine in the January/February issue about love, competition, and most importantly, her workout routine.  While currently on tour in Europe, this ripped lady still manages to workout seven days a week—and it shows!  She recently lost 20 pounds!

 

 

 

On her “man abs…”

“My man abs? They’re pretty full-on. It’s like that D’Angelo video [for “How Does It Feel”]; he’s got that V. I get a lot of flak for it. That’s where the masculine thing comes in, people saying it’s not normal for a girl to have [those]. But I’m OK with it. I think it’s because I was a gymnast for eight years, from ages 4 to 12. My body was made before my bones were fully grown. Gymnasts are short, stocky, muscular powerhouses.”

 

How she stays fit on the road…

“Ever hear of P90X? My brother and his wife are both in the Air Force; they do marathons and triathlons. I went [to visit them and she’s doing P90X]. I couldn’t keep up with her—and she’d just had her first baby four weeks ago. I was like, This is bullshit! I will perfect this thing! So usually, I wake up and do an hour of cardio, then an hour of P90X or yoga, then a half-hour of warm-up [during show rehearsal]. I do that six days a week.”

Her day off…

“I try to make it a show day so I’m still getting cardio. I have to be able to run up those stairs as many times as I do and be able to sing at the same time. I’m an asthmatic. I have to be on that treadmill singing to get my lungs right.”

 

Why she likes working out…

“I like results. I like feeling strong. It keeps my mental floor higher.”

 

Does she have a trainer?

“No. I don’t work well with trainers. [Air quotes] “Does not work well with others.”

 

She knows she’s a 10, right?

“No, no, no!  I feel like a seven and a half!  I’m not going to lie and tell you when I look in the mirror there’s nothing I don’t want to fix.  If they figure out how to stretch me and make me a little bit taller, then maybe I’ll get upwards of eight.”
