Fitness

We all love the Queen. She’s gorgeous, she’s glowing, and just look at her body. And while Beyoncé might be our favorite diva, this girl definitely works for her looks. Her personal trainer has shared the moves that make up Beyoncé’s total body workout. And yes, it’s one heck of a workout. Dare to try these five exercise moves?

Beyoncé’s personal trainer, Marco Borges, shares that the Queen’s workout is based on “Power Moves”. 

What are power moves? They’re something Borges created to work all four major joints: shoulders, hips, elbows and knees.

On top of this, each move incorporates different major muscle groups so you can really optimize your workout. 

Isn’t that the kind of workout we busy ladies need?

So, without further ado, here are five Power Moves from Beyoncè’s total body workout. Each one incorporates all four joints. 

Beyonce does 12-15 reps of each move and three to four rounds.
