Women Fitness President Ms. Namita Nayyar catches up with exceptionally talented Jamy G, she is New Zealand Playboy Playmate 2022 to talk about her fitness routine, diet, skin care, hair care and her incredible success story.
Namita Nayyar:
You were born at Westport, Connecticut US. You relocated to New York City at the age of seventeen years to pursue fashion. There you studied Commercial & Advertising Art and earned a degree from the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT). Later you decided to pursue modeling and did numerous fashion shoots. You currently reside in Los Angeles. This later propelled your career to the height where you have been at the top of the world of modeling and crowned Playboy Playmate of the Year New Zealand in July 2022. Tell us more about your professional journey of exceptional hard work, tenacity, and endurance.
Jamy G:
There were definitely moments, and still are, where I doubt myself to the point that I was making decisions based on what others wanted of me, not what I wanted for myself. I was constantly struggling with that lack of confidence and second guessing myself. But what I learned from my life experiences was that if I didn’t nip the self-limiting thoughts in the bud right away, this “poor me” mind set could become debilitating. I have also definitely surrounded myself with only my “biggest fans” — the friends, family, and peers who are always there for me and think I’m the cat’s meow. I like to nurture those relationships and get confidence from them!
Namita Nayyar:
It is a dream for a model to be featured in Playboy. You became Playboy Playmate of the Year New Zealand in July 2022. Tell us more about this spectacular achievement of yours.
Jamy G:
When I got the call, I was on such a high! And I also remember thinking to myself, finally! Playboy said, “I was a good brand ambassador and I really stood for what it was that they were trying to revamp.”
Namita Nayyar:
You are a world-leading social media personality, supermodel, certified nutritionist, health enthusiast, and brand ambassador. How do you manage such a remarkable multi-dimensional lifestyle?
Jamy G:
I eat my piece of humble pie every day. It’s really easy to get swept up in the LA lifestyle of the who’s who and the what’s what. If I’m not pursuing multiple paths toward a fulfilling meaningful life then am I even living? It’s so crucial to cultivate multiple aspects of who you are, because if one of these dimensions disappears, the other facets will carry you through.
Namita Nayyar:
What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine you may wish to share?
Jamy G:
Oh, that’s easy. Strength training or weight/resistance with the use free weights and weight machines is what I focus on. I believe even just using your body weight has way more benefits than traditional cardio. You will never sculpt a body with cardio.
Namita Nayyar:
How do you train your abs? One secret to your toned body.
Jamy G:
I definitely like to keep the size of my waistline small. Just being even a little bulky around the belly and having too much visceral fat can increase your risk of high cholesterol and heart disease. My little secret to giving the illusion of a tiny waist is working on your back. Building and toning your back can totally change the way your body looks. Wide-grip cable pulldowns, rowing motions from different angles. I also don’t really do side abs because they can build and make you look bulky. So I love a bicycle crunch and leg lift. And I always keep in mind that abs are built in the kitchen first!
Namita Nayyar:
Do you take a special diet or have a strict menu that you follow to remain healthy and physically fit?
Jamy G:
I’m mainly pescatarian. I typically eat organic berries, veggies, nuts, seeds, whole grains, eggs, wild-caught fish and seafood. Following this specific type of lifestyle is super beneficial to your heart health and is very anti-inflammatory.
