Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You are a Lifestyle and Fitness Coach, Writer, Entrepreneur, Veteran, Mom, Speaker and a Woman on a mission. Introduce us to a day in your remarkable multi-dimensional lifestyle.
Ms. Neghar Fonooni:
I usually wake up between 5-6 am to get some much needed solitude before the day begins. I light candles and burn sage, read, journal, and pull tarot cards. This time is so important for me because it allows me to fill my cup.
My husband and I take turns getting our son ready for school, and afterwards I walk the dogs and do a little yoga before getting ready for work.
A typical work day includes writing, recording my podcast, posting on social media, and/or recording videos. By 4pm I’m usually shutting down my laptop so that I can pick up my son from school and head to the gym.
After the gym I cook dinner for my boys, or, if I’m exhausted, we order out. We usually unwind as a family with a TV show we’re enjoying together. I’ll sometimes have a glass of wine or take another walk with the pups.
I’m in bed no later than 10, often reading before I fall asleep.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine that you may wish to share?
Ms. Neghar Fonooni:
My workouts usually include pull-ups, pushups, squats, deadlifts, bench pressing, and sled work. I also do yoga every day, even for just 5 minutes.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Do you take some special diet or have a strict menu that you follow to remain healthy and physically fit?
Ms. Neghar Fonooni:
Nope! I actually am a recovering dieter and I think it’s important for women to avoid restriction in favor of moderation and listening to their own bodies. While calorie counting can be a wonderful short term strategy to understand portions and such, it doesn’t work in the long term.
I eat lots of protein and veggies, and try to eat starchier carbs around my intense workouts. But I am pretty free and comfortable around food in general. I love wine and chocolate, but I love broccoli and salmon too!
