Megan Thee Stallion has been a prime example of what turning peppers into hot sauce looks like. After going through a few tumultuous years, the Houston Hottie therapeutically channeled her depression, anxiety, and insecurities into a beautiful beast of a body.

In addition to starring on Women’s Health‘s April 2024 cover, the 29-year-old shared her consistent workout routine that keeps her built like “a stallion and not a pony.” And the Hot Girl Coach isn’t all talk. Meg actually shares monthly clips of herself in the gym sweating, nearly giving up at times, but always getting it in.

“Getting out of bed to work out in the morning is a struggle,” she told the pub. “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 bi**h. If I want to be a stallion and not a pony, I got to get up and put in the work.’”

However, the journey to being healthy and physically fit didn’t immediately become a “thing” for her. Meg learned how to shift her energy into the gym, instead of doomscrolling online and obsessing over things that couldn’t be changed at the moment.

“Working on myself made me get into working out because I needed to focus my energy somewhere else,” she expressed. “I used working out to escape and to get happy.”

Now the “Cobra” rhymer has a set routine that includes a healthy diet and being in the gym “four or five days a week.” On those days, she includes pilates class, running up sand hills at the beach, and hitting the elliptical or StairMaster for 40 minutes. And of course, she keeps her thighs tight and glutes plumped by hitting hip thrusts, goblet squats, leg extensions, and “stallion kicks.”

Aside from her workouts, the Grammy-winning rapstress says she changed her diet to include a gallon of water a day, protein shakes with strawberries, bananas, and almond milk, a natural green juice, and less sugary drinks like soda, juice, and cognac.

To combat stomach issues, Meg also gave up unhealthy meals and snacks for nutrient-rich ones like pan-seared salmon for lunch, sea bass or cod for dinner, and cucumber slices and cherry tomatoes drizzled with salt, pepper, and light balsamic vinaigrette for a snack.

Within those meals, she also makes sure to have sweet potatoes, kale or brown rice, and avocados, but still indulges in her guilty pleasures like pepper jack cheese and dark chocolate. “I am still a Southern girl, so I like to eat what I want,” Megan said. “I just don’t go overboard.”

Megan’s hard work will definitely help her out for her forthcoming Hot Girl Summer Tour with GloRilla, which will take her to 31 cities before going overseas. Kicking off this May, she’ll visit arenas in major cities, including Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Detroit, Boston, Memphis, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and her hometown of Houston.
