Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You are a Wife, Mom, Certified Fitness Trainer and businesswoman. Introduce us to a day in your remarkable multi-dimensional lifestyle.
Ms. Haya Sawan:
Being a mother has taught me so many things. When you are a mother you learn how to multitask, and perform at your best under stress and tough circumstances because you have the people you love most counting on you! My husband on the other hand, has been super supportive of my work and I am very thankful for that.
I will be very honest it took me a lot of work and so many ups and downs to get to where I am today. This wasn’t easy! Thankfully, I can say that I am finally able to manage my work and and family well… Do I still struggle? YES! Sometimes more than other, but I make it work! Every time! Let me take you through my daily routine, Most of you don’t know but I am an interior designer and this is where my job managing a furniture business started.
I have a huge passion for fitness health, workout and empowering women by setting a good example. I had started training about 4 years ago, I started my public Instagram account almost two years ago during my second pregnancy, I wanted to use it as a blog to motivate myself and keep myself going, turns out I was motivating other pregnant women along the way!
Now I give workout sessions after work, What makes my sessions different than others is that I make sure it works well for all moms. Same as myself a lot of the ladies I train have young kids. So I came up with an idea to have a little play area close to my workout area, Kids are entertained through circle time, sing along and crafts while their moms get an hour of workout. In the end its win win situation and no body has to feel guilty leaving their kid home!
I have also started a healthy snack business a year ago when my husband decided he wanted to loose weight but didn’t want to sacrifice the yummy snacks and his morning granola!
So I came up with my own homemade granola and coconut chips both with no refined sugars and all organic natural ingredients and too good to be true!
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine?
Ms. Haya Sawan:
My Workout is a combination of cardio and strength training. I like to change up my routine to make it exciting for the ladies and yet challenging at the same time. I do high intensity circuit training using a lot of different kinds of equipment, I like to introduce the TRX (suspension trainer), Bosu, stability ball, rings, Parallets and of course weights and Kettlebells. My Training also includes interval training, Tabata and Crossfit WODs.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Do you take some special diet or have a strict menu that you follow to remain healthy and physically fit?
Ms. Haya Sawan:
I have made so many research and tried so many eating patterns. I would not call it a diet, rather so I would call it a lifestyle. I have established a very clean and healthy eating routine/ lifestyle that is applied to our cooking at home and my kids love it as well. It’s the choices of ingredients and oils that we use, the all natural sweeteners (honey and maple syrup) rather than refined sugars and I make sure it tastes delicious!
