Ms. Namita Nayyar:
With the extensive energy required for the sport you have to keep up your fitness levels too. What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine?
Ms. Katarina Johnson-Thompson:
I have to compete in a number of different events so I split my training up. There’s technical training, strength and power training (mainly gym) and running (obviously) so a fair amount of aerobic and lactic work.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Do you take any special diet or have a strict menu that you follow to remain healthy and physically fit?
Ms. Katarina Johnson-Thompson:
I don’t have a special diet but I try to stick to commons sense. Make sure I get in some good quality protein such as SiS Whey20 straight after a workout for example. My New Year’s resolution is to make sure I always eat foods that are going to benefit my body and add to my training instead of foods that just hit my taste buds….and to stretch more.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Considered the 9th most marketable sportsperson on the planet, labelled as ‘the future of athletics’ and with a natural flair both on and off track, you are considered to be the world’s next global sporting icon. How does that make you feel?
Ms. Katarina Johnson-Thompson:
Fabulous haha. I don’t think about this but it’s nice to have positive things being said about you.
