Queen of Pop Madonna is Addicted to Trainer Nicole Winhoffer. Tracy who?
6 Dec 2012
Remember when Tracy Anderson trained Madonna? Gone are those days. Enter Nicole Winhoffer, who's actually been working with Madonna for a while...but it was kept under wraps until the duo released their newest fitness DVD--Addicted To Sweat. Nicole is a dark angel with a fitness hex.
In my opinion, she's like the Rihanna of fitness. She's a confident bad-ass whose star keeps rising no matter what you have to say about it. Her irreverence towards existing fitness trends and trainers who think they know it all is compelling. Her sense of pride and accomplishment is enviable.

Nicole who is a mix of Filipino and German, went from assisting on Madonna's Sticky and Sweet Tour to becoming Madonna's primary trainer, to then becoming the Creative Director of Hard Candy Fitness Gyms (founded by Madonna). She is the reason Madonna stays svelte, on beat and full of youth despite her 50+ years.
When I asked Nicole about her work schedule and workout routine, I heard the same theme in her responses. She must always be prepared and likes to be one step ahead. Nicole is ever-changing and always creating. Sounds like someone we know, doesn't it?

No wonder Madonna is addicted to Nicole Winhoffer. They are 2 peas in a very sweaty (and sculpted) pod.

Wow, this was a fantastic interview! I really admire Nicole’s dance background and her dedication to Madonna’s tour. Nicole (like Madonna) gives it her all, which makes it no wonder why Madonna sticks with her as a trainer. Sorry to Tracy Anderson, but Nicole Winhoffer would win a battle of the trainers (that sounds corny, but you know what I mean, haha).

I love this!! I love that she started out as an assistant to her personal trainer!! That is remarkable!! From the sound and looks of it she is incredible and very passionate about what she does can you blame Madonna for making her, her personal trainer?!?!? I love when people are so passionate about what they do they push until it becomes a reality!!

OMG, Tracy would be creamed in a second by Nicole W. That’s a fight I wouldn’t want to watch! Thanks Liz!

Hi Brit,
So true. Passion is the making of a pro. You’ve got some of that in you as well. And when I say “some”, I means TONS! How is the MPG Messenger thing going. Please keep me posted and thanks for leaving a comment about Nicole in this article. You know I love you!
