PINK’S box office numbers and production statistics are as dazzling as her acrobatic skills.
But beneath the figures, financials and flying apparatuses is a hardcore workout regimen to keep Pink’s Beautiful Trauma tour on track and in the air.
Her training includes cardio, yoga, Pilates, plyometrics, flexibility, high-intensity interval training, dance and strength training.

For this tour, which lands at Rod Laver Arena on Monday and returns for 10 more nights, Pink has increased her horizontal core work (for mid-air planking) and plyo (for leaps).
Tait, the company that built Pink’s stage and “performer flying package”, says the singer’s rig allows her to take flight at various onstage and offstage locations and interact with several scenic props while in the air.
At times, Pink flies at 7m per second around the arena.
The Beautiful Trauma show travels in 25 trucks, with 60 tonnes of equipment and more than 100 tour personnel.
Pink will play to 500,000 fans on this outing, and has sold two million tickets across five national tours.
“I feel like I’ve been clawing my way in other countries my whole life and when I get to Australia, it’s, ‘these people like me’, and that feels like a nice warm hug,” Pink said.
“It feels like there is a place in the world that I don’t have to fight as hard for who I am.
