If you’re not in the mood to learn today and just fancy a happy wiggle to shake off some stress, HERE’S A BANGER FOR YOU 🎶
Melanie C (51) is actually fit.
A lot of celebrities who share their “workout secrets” and look marvellous aren’t necessarily that fit at all. Many go through extensive interventions & enjoy the results of laboratories, not gyms. Enhanced not through sweat, but through… other sacrifices. (It’s still a sacrifice — just a different kind)
Real fitness looks different. It looks like Melanie C.
Ripped. Veins popping. Muscles hard. Bones mega-solid.
It looks like:
chest going a bit flatter because you genuinely lowered your body-fat percentage
face that may look a little wrinklier because the fat was lost — not injected
a body that looks veiny & hard because it was earnt through work, conditioning...
People have been cruel, saying she “looks like a man”... But it takes an enormous amount of work to look like this. People's eyeballs are used to the less fit but more fixed-up kind of beauty. At this age when we workout we don't look all smooth & soft. It takes grind and the grind shows.
To look plump, smooth & “perfect” like many other celebrities? That usually takes surgery & meds...
If you work out — REALLY work out — this is what fitness can look like.
The feeling is also probably different - invincible with pride 💪
I have so much respect for her for daring to look this epic and fit in a world that is full of judgement and criticism. A lot of pressure on women in the entertainment industry & as they age it is getting harder & harder to dare to show up. Respect 🫡
