Toni Braxton In Workout Gear Rehearses For Las Vegas Shows
“I consider my body to be a Maybach.”
Toni Braxton is rightfully known for her incredible voice and body of work, but the star can certainly dance, too. Braxton, 56, shared a video of herself wearing black workout gear and sneakers, rehearsing her dance moves for her Love and Laughter shows with Cedric the Entertainer at the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas. “I LOVE seeing Toni play and sing. Such a well-rounded legend!” a fan commented. Here’s how Braxton stays fit, happy, and full of energy.
Braxton tries to be active every day. “I work out often when I can,” she told Prevention. “I do Orangetheory. It’s a hard workout. But the greatest thing about Orangetheory is that I have a heart rate monitor on so I can watch myself and make sure I’m not overworking my heart or overworking my body. I can watch my pulse and heart rate and that makes me feel better mentally.”
Braxton tries to stick to a plant-based diet to help with lupus symptoms. “I’m working on being plant-based,” she told Prevention. “I’m a real meat eater and I was in the past. With anything, you’ve got to discuss it with your doctor. But for me it’s been very beneficial. My cardiologist told me, ‘You should try plant-based. I find a lot of lupus patients get results from that.’ I’ve been having fun trying new recipes. I have made taco meat out of walnuts, which is very yummy.”
