Considering she was 43 at the time, that’s impressive for her knees and ligaments to pull that off.

I can’t do that now at 22 so props to her.

As “hard as modern pop girlies go” few can hold a Candle to how hard Madonna went while touring.

I saw this live! It was amazing! Everyone in the audience was going completely nuts and confetti was falling everywhere. Everyone was screaming and dancing 😭

Woah, and iirc this was the end of the show too

She was killing two birds with one stone. Getting her workout in and performing to a live audience.

The fact that I knew what song it was while on silent 😅

AND this was at the end of a 2 hour show
Her fitness and strength at that period was inspiring. She got so much crap for looking ‘like a man’ because she had muscular arms.

Trying this when I get home from work. I bet I can do 2 in a row

I’m 41 and did it (with absolutely no grace or rhythm and had to sit down afterwards and rest.)

Is that difficult?

All of that while singing non stop, already panting from running around and screaming etc, and dancing too. So your heart rate is already 160s something. She was probably in her forties – then the squat jumps 22 times. And it must have been super hot too. And when they miss a beat or go off key while doing all this, people complain! Just imagine that!!

No surprise
IIRC she was one of the first female celebrities to get absolutely shredded and visibly fit af
I remember her getting a lot of unjust hate for her looks because she was muscularly toned as hell.
If you’re only old enough to know of how Michelle Obama was attacked for her exceptional muscular arm physique, you thankfully missed out on how much hate Madonna got for being fit

I’m 38M, started doing CorePower classes. Squats are hard in themselves. But the speed at which one has to do them is even harder. For her to be 43 at this time doing them is impressive. My knees are cooked

I remember reading once that Chris Martin mentioned that Beyoncé had blown outs knees and then I saw a video where she squatted down to take a pic with a kid and she looked so pained.
Years and years of dancing and being tough on your knees will absolutely become an issue for you as you age. I’m curious if Madonna has any pain issues now that she’s older.

If I tried that you’d be able to keep time by the cracking sound of my left knee
This is prob my fav era of Madonna. they keep calling every new pop star the next Madonna but I dont see the same energy and vibe in a lot of them

People forget that she is a dancer! My girl danced her azz off in the 80’s/90’s. What a time. I wish I could have seen her live in her prime.

I saw her at her most recent tour, post medical scare where she almost died. Energetic and iconic as ever, honestly one of the best concerts ive ever been to. I hope she does more tours in her lifetime.

She was fire 🔥
No wonder her knees 🙁
Dancers don’t get the credit they deserve for their cardio and fitness
My knees cannot comprehend 😓
In heels too!
Oh she definitely showed us why she’s wearing that tee
