Ms. Namita Nayyar:
In a recent interview, you spoke about the role of fitness and how it helped you to conquer your mental health issues, forged your own personal training career, and cut loose from depression. Depression is a common health concern in today’s time, share with our visitors the role of fitness in fighting it?
Ms. Chloe Madeley:
When I was in my early twenties I began to struggle with anxiety. As the years passed, the anxiety attacks became full blown panic attacks. After a nasty breakup, I found myself struggling with depression. I was lucky when, at the age of 25, I found what I wanted to do with my life, which was work in health and fitness.
Not only did that finding my ‘why’ alleviate much of the stress and angst I was battling with on a daily basis, but I was lucky in that my ‘why’ turned out to be SO physically, emotionally, hormonally and mentally beneficial.
Training hard, implementing daily structure and discipline, finding my passion, all of these things pulled me out of my lost mindset and pushed me into a mindset of strength, capability and certainty.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You are a world-leading media personality, television presenter, freelance journalist, model and fitness expert. Provide us a glimpse into a day of your remarkable multi-dimensional lifestyle.
Ms. Chloe Madeley:
My life is very boring! I wake up early, I train at the gym, I drive home, I eat breakfast, and I get to work on my laptop!
I sit and work all day long, some days, usually once or twice a week, I will have to drive into London for meetings, media or photoshoots, but that is as adventurous as it gets!
Sometimes on the weekend I will attend my boyfriend’s rugby games, which is great fun, but I rarely go out on the town anymore, it just doesn’t sit well with what I do now.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
With a slim line physique that you possess, it seems staying fit is a integral part of your lifestyle. Unfold the exercises that comprise your fitness regime on a daily basis?
Ms. Chloe Madeley:
I usually get up early, eat breakfast and head to the gym for a weight lifting session followed by some cardio. I train upper body 3x weekly and lower body 3x weekly, and have 1 full rest day a week.
