Selena Gomez was ‘nervous’ to start her brutal high-intensity interval training
Selena Gomez’s workout secrets: She was ‘nervous’ about high-intensity interval training but is now ‘committed’ says her personal trainer
Selena Gomez is ‘committed’ to her health journey.
The Rare singer has been making an effort to prioritize her health and wellbeing since taking a hiatus to seek treatment for her mental health in late 2018.
And her personal trainer, Luke Milton, has now said Selena is ‘looking out for her health both physically and mentally.’
‘She looks amazing, she really does. She’s committed to it and she’s consistent. She’s looking out for her health, and that’s the big thing. I’ve got nothing but positive things to say about her,’ said the fitness expert.
Luke, who is a former rugby player, founded Training Mate – the program Selena attends – in 2013, which is a 45-minute high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout that merges cardio with resistance exercises.
And while Selena, 27, was ‘quite nervous’ when she first joined the program with best friend Courtney Lopez, Luke insists she’s ‘done really well’ since.
He added to Us Weekly magazine: ‘We always want [her] to leave with a smile on her face because it builds results. The more people come, the more active they are, the better the results are.’
And he also noted that she was not mad when one of Justin Bieber’s songs came up on his track list during a workout.
‘She’s just such a legend. She’s such a good sport, she has such a great personality. She rolled with it,’ he said.
Selena and Justin dated off and on from 2011 until 2018; he then quickly wed ex Hailey Baldwin.
‘She gets along so well with everyone and just cruises through the class.’
Meanwhile, the Look At Her Now hitmaker recently said she was ‘relieved’ when she received the diagnosis for her mental health, as it helped her find the right course of medication following years of ups and downs with her mood.
She said: ‘I had low self-esteem, and that’s something I work on continuously. But I feel so empowered because I’ve gained so much knowledge about what was going on mentally.
‘My highs were really high, and my lows would take me out for weeks at a time.
‘I found out I do suffer from mental health issues. And, honestly, that was such a relief.
‘I realized that there was a way to get help and to find people that you trust. I got on the right medication, and my life has been completely changed.’
