No woman should ever lift more than 3lbs

All my clients eat. Madonna has a very healthy appetite. She doesn't eat processed food, she's very conscious of the quality of the things she eats but she has treats - she loves cupcakes.

Do you need to train two hours a day? Probably not. The reason why my celebrity clients have to train two hours a day is because their endurance level is so strong. For Madonna to get results and keep results, it's like a professional athlete training - she has to push harder.

If you want a dancer's body, dance. Dance aerobics is my favourite cardio. It's very frustrating if people think you have to become a dancer to do it - you don't.

I really wanted to make it as a ballet dancer to make my mom proud. But it didnt happen.

I hate diets and I love eating.

A lot of women use pregnancy as an excuse to let their bodies go, and that's the worst thing.

When you feel your best, you're more confident in bed. It's not lights-out, under-the-covers sex. It's more like, Take a look at this!

Madonna is an athlete she has to be treated like a professional athlete. She doesn't work out for six hours a day, though, like some of the press says. She never works out for more than two hours a day, and then only when she has the time.

I think it's very important to feed the body what it craves and not be in your head about it, panicking, carrying around some calorie-counting wheel in your bag or something equally absurd. I'm really not a fan of that at all.

You need to be dedicated to your workout, whatever you choose.

Juice fasting destroys your metabolic rate. I see a lot of women who are like, Oh, I lost seven pounds and then I gained 10. That's not what detoxification is about.
