Madonna exercises every day

Madonna exercises seven days a week to maintain her svelte figure.

The 48-year-old pop queen follows a disciplined workout regime to ensure that she stays in shape for her gruelling live performances.

She told Elle: "I mix it up - Pilates, yoga. I do it six days a week. Actually, Sunday is horse riding. There is no such thing as a day off."

However, the 'Hung Up' star admits to suffering from 'fat' days in spite of her punishing exercise regime, saying: "I run longer on the treadmill and don't eat as much the next day, so then it evens out, but I'm sure it's all in my head."
