After giving birth to herdaughter Sienna Princesslast year,Ciarawasted no time getting back in the gym.
The singer, 32, started working out again soon after Sienna arrived in April 2017 for her mental health. But Ciara dialed it up a notch, and would go three times a day in between breastfeeding.
“It was kind of like, wake up in the morning, breastfeed, eat a small meal, go train, come back in, breastfeed, eat another meal, go train, then come back, have another meal, and then a third training session at night,”she toldCosmopolitanfor their November cover.
And Ciara, who is gearing up forthe release of her seventh studio album, said that she works out for herself.
“It was a good challenge, one I set for myself, not for anyone else,” she said. “Taking care of myself makes me feel really good. And I want to keep it sexy too, you know.”
