[Nate] 'LOST 18KG' RESCENE'S MINAMI REVEALS HER GRUELING 'WORKOUT ROUTINE' FOR INTENSE WEIGHT LOSS'

30 Jumping Burpees + 20 Twist Planks + 20 Crunches + 20 Push-ups with Shoulder Taps + 30 Jumping Jacks + 20 Lunges + 20 Jumping Squats = 1 Set

As Minami, a Japanese member of the popular girl group RESCENE, revealed that she had lost 18kg, the "hellish workout routine" she endured during her trainee days is garnering renewed attention.

In a video titled "War Against Weight" uploaded on the 12th to RESCENE member Woni’s YouTube channel, Minami appeared and opened up about the hardships she faced while dieting.

When the production team suggested, "Let's just come right out and say how many kilograms you lost," Minami surprised everyone by revealing, "It was 18kg." Reflecting on the grueling weight-loss process, she said, "At the time, all the stress of daily life manifested as pressure to lose weight. I cried every day."

She went on to share an embarrassing anecdote about weight gain that occurred while filming the performance video for "Heart Drop," a track from RESCENE’s third mini-album released last year: "The outfit wouldn't even go up past my hips. My manager and stylist had to force it up for me."

As this story came to light, curiosity regarding their weight loss secrets grew. Previously, Minami, along with fellow RESCENE members Liv and Zena. appeared on the YouTube channel "Moongtness" to reveal the grueling "hellish workout routine" they had followed during their trainee days. It was revealed that Liv and Zena had also achieved significant weight loss, comparable to Minami, who lost 18kg; Liv lost 13kg, and Zena lost 8kg.

The revealed routine consists of a single set comprising "30 jumping burpees, 20 twist planks, 20 crunches, 20 push-ups with shoulder touches, 30 jumping jacks, 20 lunges, and 20 jumping squats." They surprised everyone by revealing that they completed eight sets of this high-intensity workout daily.

A simple calculation shows that, over the course of a day, this amounts to performing 240 repetitions each of burpees and jumping jacks, along with 160 repetitions each of twist planks, crunches, push-up shoulder taps, lunges, and jumping squats.

Jumping burpees are a high-intensity, full-body aerobic exercise that excels at burning calories and maximizing cardiovascular function in a short period. Jumping jacks, another form of aerobic exercise, also promote whole-body blood circulation and calorie burning.

Push-up shoulder taps build upper-body strength while improving balance and core stability, whereas lunges and jumping squats strengthen the lower body, effectively enhancing muscle tone in the legs and overall muscular endurance. Additionally, twist planks and crunches serve to strengthen core muscles and define the waistline.

Minami is a real gem. Her English is amazing, too. She's a linguistic genius and a top-tier dancer, an all-around idol

Minami is the kind of talent who would have succeeded at anything, even if she hadn't become a singer. On a side note, I actually prefer Liv when she was in her chubbier days

She was cute in her debut days

It’s hard for someone weighing over 100kg to lose 18kg, so that’s really impressive

I strongly suspect that meds played a role in that level of weight loss
