Speaking to fitness expert and certified personal trainer Mothusi Maepa, he gave Briefly News a rundown of the influencer's workout routine:

"The first exercise is referred to as squats with lateral leg raises. It targets the groin muscles and adductors, core muscles (obliques) and lower back, improving muscle endurance for a better range of motion in your hips.
"The second routine is called the standing military press. It targets the anterior deltoids, engages the triceps and the upper pectoral muscles, and improves core strength, balance and stability.
"Lastly, the third exercise is the star toe-touch sit-ups. This exercise engages your abs, obliques and strengthens your core."

"Posting gym content after you’ve surgically modified your body is like controversially getting money, but posting motivational videos about how everyone has the same 24 hours and that hard work always pays off."

"She doesn't look the same anymore, man."

Meanwhile, others defended Mimi, saying she still needed to work out to maintain her alleged BBL:

OhhsooJayy posted:

"You still have to maintain a healthy lifestyle to maximise your results."

africasdiamond said:

"Getting a BBL needs gym maintenance, though. I don’t think she’s telling y’all this body is gym-made."

khanyieMcBird defended Mihlali:

"But guys, even after going under the knife, you still have to go to the gym to maintain. I doubt she ever said her body looks like this because of the gym."
