Kang Mina Workout Routine 2021
During an episode of "Let's Eat Together" on Naver V Live, Kang Mina revealed that walking is the secret to losing weight. She stated that she tried to walk a lot and that she loves taking a walk with a cup of coffee. Her tip to walking a lot is getting off one station earlier when she is taking the subway or metro. If possible, she will walk rather than commute to as her workout.
During her active days as an idol, Kang Mina always had dance practice, and she would utilize her dance practices as her cardio. During periods where she did not have to promote, she would practice for two to three hours, five days a week. However, during periods where either I.O.I or Gugudan had to promote, it was not uncommon for her to practice for nine to ten hours, five days a week.

While Kang Mina had not revealed that she does this workout, most female idols take pilates as another exercise. Pilates is a low-intensity workout that helps the body become flexible and toned. This form of exercise also gives one a slim waistline and a well-shaped butt. If you want to have a figure like Mina, this might be an option to look into.
Kang Mina Diet 2021
Kang Mina revealed she went on an extreme diet to lose weight quickly in the past. At one point in her life, Kang Mina stopped eating food altogether and survived off two bottles of sparkling water a day. As a result, she rapidly lost weight, and at her thinnest, she was just 47.1kg, which is 91.9lbs. She reveals that at the time, she had lost 13kg or 28.6lbs.
Kang Mina has spoken out against this diet, saying she knew that it was very unhealthy. She discourages her fans from ever trying this diet method, stating that going on extreme diets is unnecessary unless they have a job like hers. The idol revealed she gets upset whenever someone DMs her asking if they will lose weight if they drink sparkling water like her, and stresses that being skinny is not the only way to be beautiful.
