Shakira bared her famous, perfectly toned abs while shooting a commercial in Catalonia, Spain, on Thursday, Oct. 8, just eight months after she gave birth to her second child, son Sasha.
The Colombian beauty donned a green bikini top and revealing maxi skirt for the beachside shoot, where she performed a variety of her hip-shaking dance moves.
Shakira’s smokin’ post-baby bod is partly thanks to her longtime trainer, Anna Kaiser, who developed the workout program AKT InMotion.
“Anna and I have worked together for years,” Shakira told Us in an exclusive interview last month. “We met when I wanted to get in shape to promote my album She Wolf. She’s so determined and passionate about helping people reach their goals, and on top of that is just a really wonderful person.”
“Most people don’t know that pre-and post-birth workouts need to be really different, and target muscles differently than a normal workout,” the fitness expert explained to Us. “People are told by trainers and fitness instructors, ‘Just don’t do it if it hurts,’ [when] in actuality, you need to develop a completely different program.”
