Women Fitness President Ms. Namita Nayyar catches up with an exceptionally talented and accomplished, Gia Macool who is a 1stPhorm Athlete, author, glamour model and public speaker. Here she talks about her fitness regime, diet and success story.
Namita Nayyar:
You’ve been a prominent figure in the health and fitness world since 1998. How have the industry—and your role within it—evolved over the years?
Gia Macool:
I’ve transitioned from competing to living a balanced fitness lifestyle. What first led me to fitness—a passion for health and quality of life—hasn’t changed. With experience come wisdom and the ability to handle challenges at every level, whether competitive or personal.
Now, I focus on helping everyday women—wives and mothers—get fit and feel their best. The industry itself has also shifted to a more mainstream focus on wellness.
Namita Nayyar:
You wear many hats: 1st Phorm Athlete, author, model, and relationship guide. How do these roles come together in your mission?
Gia Macool:
All of these roles connect through one purpose—wellness. It’s about creating a long, fulfilling life and becoming the best version of yourself.
Relationships are key to every area—fitness, business, or family. The way you treat people and maintain those relationships ultimately defines your success.
Namita Nayyar:
The term “glamour model” often carries preconceptions. How have you used that platform to promote health and empowerment?
Gia Macool:
Glamour modeling often gets misunderstood because many in the industry drift from beauty into exploitation. Women are told that doing “more” means making more money—but that usually comes with a cost.
I aim to help women model in a healthy, confident, and value-driven way, maintaining boundaries while building real relationships and staying mainstream.
Namita Nayyar:
As a 1st Phorm Athlete, what about their philosophy and products aligns with your own?
Gia Macool:
1st Phorm holds a high standard—not just in their products, but in their people. They always go beyond what’s promised, which is exactly how I approach my work: under-promise, over-deliver.
Namita Nayyar:
What’s the biggest mental or emotional hurdle that holds women back from starting their fitness journey—and how can they overcome it?
Gia Macool:
Comfort.
Most women stay stuck in what feels safe. But growth happens in discomfort. Stepping out of that zone builds strength, not just physically—but mentally too.
