Astrid Swan: Exceptionally Talented and Stunningly Beautiful Fitness Expert and Model Reveals her Fitness, Diet and Beauty Secrets   

Ms. Namita Nayyar: You have glowing skin and gorgeous hair. Do you take some kind of skin treatment to keep it young and glowing and secondly what you do to your hair to make them look so stunning?

Ms. Astrid Swan: Thank you! I have always been interested in skin care! As soon as I am done working out, I immediately wash my face with a mild cleanser like Cetaphil sensitive liquid soap and use a face wipe to remove any sweat and dirt from the gym. I exfoliate with a sensitive skin exfoliator by Dr. Lancer every night because I sweat so much throughout the day, it helps prevent breakouts and also stimulates collagen.

I never go outside, rain or shine, without sun screen. Once a month, I treat myself to a facial and every 6 months, I do a peel that makes me look questionable for 4 days.... I always joke that on day 5 I will be pretty! ;) The trick with my hair is that I do not wash it every day & I do not own a blow dryer! Oh shoots, it gets all kinds of heat on it from blow dryers, flat irons, curling irons etc... if I don't have a shoot, I let my hair dry naturally and people are both shocked and impressed with the health of my locks!
 

Ms. Namita Nayyar: Fitness modelling is about bold photo shoots. You did photo shoot and showed your spectacular chiseled physique. What advice you wish to give to the women of today to be body confident in order to do such bold modeling?

Ms. Astrid Swan: Confidence comes from within, your eyes are the windows of your soul, so be bold by being you! There is no one else like you! You have to believe that! Also, I swear by a spray tan before a photo shoot!
 

Ms. Namita Nayyar: Advice and motivational words to the inspiring and budding fitness modelling girls who all are your fans and shall like to know from you for their climb to ladder of success in field of fitness modeling?

Ms. Astrid Swan: Never give up! You will hear the word "NO" a lot but don't let that stop you. If you have a goal, go for it. My first meeting with a modeling agency was a giant no. In fact they said, "if your eyebrows and chin were different, we would be more interested in you but for now, it's a no" 3 weeks later, I signed with Elite Model Management from a faxed snap shot of me. Months later, I was in magazines and on commercials and I received a phone call from the first agency. "Astrid, we would love to represent you..." I said, "My eyebrows haven't moved!"
 

Ms. Namita Nayyar: Tell us more about your experience being the lead trainer in Lionsgate BeFit series "30 Day Fat Burn" ?

Ms. Astrid Swan: I absolutely loved this project. It was a lot of work, long days on set and a lot of sweat! At one point, I asked the hair stylist for the shoot for a hair dryer to dry off my sweat on my spandex! I love that you can follow the program as is or you can mix and match for a longer workout. We are so lucky to be in a technology driven world, where you can do these workouts anywhere from your computer, iPad or cell phone. It is one of my favorite workouts still today.

Ms. Namita Nayyar: Elaborate about your concept of Personalized Fitness Training Program you offer?

Ms. Astrid Swan: My fitness training program is personalized for each of my clients but the base is the same. Proper dynamic warm up, pushing outside your comfort zone, and not spending hours a day in the gym! I want you to put the work in and then go on with your life! Training with me is not supposed to be easy but I promise you, you will feel so great about yourself when you walk (or crawl!!) out!
 

Ms. Namita Nayyar: What you wish to say about the website Womenfitness.net and message for its visitors?
