Taylor Swift's Trainer Reveals That She Targets Her Core And Dedicates Time For Cardio To Prepare For Her Eras Tour
Myers, who has been working with the pop star since her 1989 era in 2014, also gushed that the "Anti-Hero" artist's work ethic "is just incredible." He added: "I’m ready to be known as ‘Taylor Swift’s trainer.’ I don't think there’s a cooler title out there." The athletic expert responsible for Swift's physical preparation shared how she achieved (and maintains) her excellent shape.
Back in March of 2023, Swift's record-breaking Eras Tour began. The Tortured Poets Department songwriter headlines each night, performing for over three hours. Her electrifying setlist is composed of 44 songs and she not only sings, but also plays piano and guitar and pulls off captivating choreography as well. Her popular tour is set to continue until December 8, 2024.
Myers told the publication that Swift's workout routine for the tour was "tailored" and developed to be similar to that of a professional athlete. There was an "off-season," when she wasn't on tour, he added, and an "in-season" when she was. During the off-season, the "So Long, London" artist can be found in the gym up to six days a week, devoting two hours each day to fitness. While targeting her core is their main focus during these sessions, Myers noted that Swift also dedicates time to cardio outside of the gym.
Swift has previously revealed that her workout regimen consisted of running on a treadmill while simultaneously belting out her concert setlist. While on tour, Myers said that the sculpted and toned musician makes sure to maintain her training by regularly attending the gym. "Taylor trained during the entire tour," Myers went on. "We would average two times a week. In-season training was more about maintenance, and so it was more like stability, mobility, biomechanics."
Inside Taylor Swift's Balanced, High-Protein Diet
As Swift previously shared in an interview with WebMD: “During the week, I try to eat healthily, so that means salads, yogurt, and sandwiches.” She added: “It’s nothing too regimented… I don’t like to create too many rules where I don’t need them. We know what’s good for us, thanks to common sense.”
The "So High School" crooner explained: “I like comfort foods. I love a burger and fries, I love ice cream so much, and I love baking cookies. Actually, I love baking anything.”
While chatting with Bon Appétit, Swift also detailed her love of baking. “I bake pumpkin bread for everyone I know, and make ginger molasses cookies and hot chocolate and chai,” she shared.
Swift further shared with the publication that her balanced and nutritious eating habits begin each day with one of her preferred morning meals: "buckwheat crepes with ham, Parmesan cheese, and a fried egg on top." She also begins each morning with a refreshing glass of orange juice.
While chatting with Vogue this spring, Swift's trainer Myers also said: "If you’ve seen the show, you know how intense it is physically. Imagine doing that three, four days in a row and then you finally have a few off days and you’re still showing up to [the] gym. That’s Taylor." Amid all of this, Swift was still able to write and record her eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, released on April 19th.
He also gushed: "Taylor is the most resilient person I have ever met. It’s super-inspiring to see her consistently overcome obstacles and become better and stronger in the end. This also translates into her training and throughout her workouts."
Myers added: "I give her a difficult exercise or challenging workout, not only is she able to complete and push through it — but she also perseveres, moving forward into the next exercise. This ultimately makes her stronger, better, and faster."
