Nicole Scherzinger: Intense dancing keeps me fit

Nicole Scherzinger admits her super-intense stage shows help keep her in shape.

The stunning singer credits her fabulous figure to an extreme exercise regime including dancing for her music tours. Away from busting a move or two, she works up a sweat with running and yoga.

Fitness is a big part of my everyday life, she explained in an interview with the April edition of UK magazine InStyle.

My dances for my tour are super-intense, so Ill do six to eight-hour rehearsals a day and when Im not dancing, I love running or practising Bikram yoga.

However Nicole stresses there is such a thing as too much exercise. In order to recover from her workouts, the star treats herself to a massage.

Its important to give your body a rest my biggest beauty indulgence is a good deep-tissue massage; it really helps me recover after dancing in heels, she explained.

I also try to get six to eight hours sleep a night and I drink lots and lots of water its my favourite drink.

While she invests plenty of time on sculpting her body, Nicole admits she keeps her beauty routine to a minimum. She blames her busy schedule for her low-key regime.

I have a hectic schedule, so my daily beauty regime is pretty low-maintenance, she admitted.
