With only 71 days until Hot Girl Summer, Megan Thee Stallion a.k.a. Thee Hot Girl Coach is letting us in on exactly what she’s doing to get her body(ody-0dy-ody) in shape.

Speaking in a new cover interview for Women’s Health Magazine, Megan let it be known how exactly she’s staying fit in the gym, but to be fair—getting up and working out isn’t as easy for her as we think.

“Getting out of bed to work out in the morning is a struggle,” she explained. “I have to get mentally prepared. I’m like, ‘I can stay here for another hour, or I can get up and go work out and be a bad bitch. If I want to be a stallion and not a pony, I got to get up and put in the work.’”

And what type of work does that entail? Pilates, running up sandy hills at the beach, 40 minutes on the stair master or elliptical. On legs days, she’s hitting hip thrusts, goblet squats, leg extensions, and those “stallion kicks” (a.k.a. donkey kicks). On core days, she’s switches to weighted situps, lat pulldowns, lat flies, and “renegade rows” to strengthen and tone her back.

Looking good and staying healthy isn’t just about the exercise though, it’s also about diet. But don’t worry, Meg let us know what she usually leans towards for that too:

On her way to achieving her ideal physique, Megan noticed that no matter how much she worked, she still had “this little gut,” she says. So, she leveled up her diet by scaling back on bread, tuna melts, and red meat and eliminating sugary drinks like soda, juice, and cognac. Today, she drinks about a gallon of water a day and reaches for tequila instead. When Megan realized she no longer felt bloated and her skin became noticeably clearer, she knew she was on the right track.

Modifying her diet wasn’t all about vanity, though. Megan also wanted to feel better. She’s eased long-standing stomach issues by consuming more nutrient-rich foods, like avocados. These days, she maintains healthy eating habits by drinking a strawberry, banana, almond milk, and protein powder smoothie or a green juice in the morning before she works out, eating pan-seared salmon for lunch, and having sea bass or cod for dinner along with tomatoes, sweet potatoes, kale, or brown rice; she snacks on cucumber slices with salt and pepper, and cherry tomatoes with light balsamic vinaigrette.

OK, hotties! Now that we’ve got our marching orders, we expect to see you all bright and early (or later in the afternoon, make it work for you, boo) in the gym.

Hot Girl Summer is around the corner, and we’ve got to be ready. All in favor, say “Ahht!”
