Three components that are a must in a good fitness regime? Any sport you love to indulge in?
LINN LOWES:
I honestly believe you should do what you enjoy. There’s no must. Weightlifting, cardiovascular health (cardio) and stretching will however help you live longer, age slower and be happier (endorphins). Id love to go back into horseback riding at some point of my life.
Namita Nayyar:
You went “from a skinny picky eater to a healthy, fit, and strong chick learning to love life again.” How did this transformation happen?
LINN LOWES:
Going through cancer I thought everything was poison. There wasn’t much I could eat (I made myself believe). When I got more knowledge about nutrition I knew I needed to eat more. I started eating meat again after being vegan for a while because of all lies i’ve been told by the media how cancer and meat is connected. Immediately started to become stronger and happier. Now, i’m not saying anyone should stop being vegan. I’m saying that all diets doesn’t work for everyone. You have to find a balance that works for you and your body. Today I eat vegan twice a week so I have cut down on meat but I won’t cut it out completely ever again.

Namita Nayyar:
Your daily skincare and hair care routine, before and after a workout?
LINN LOWES:
It depends when, during the day I work out. If I go in the morning I wash my face with NeoStrata Glycolic Wash (AHA) and put on a moisturizing SPF on top. Sometimes I work out later during the day and then I don’t even mind taking my make-up off I just make sure to do it after with a mild AHA face wash and then I put on Paula’s Choice Retinol Treatment, Vitamin C, Verso Super Eye Serum and finish off with a Vitamin E mask from NeoStrata. Because its evening I don’t use any SPF. For my hair I try not to wash it after every workout so I do use A LOT of dry shampoo haha! But when I do wash it, I do a OlaPlex treatment once a week and I use Redken Anti Snap leave-in after every shower.
Namita Nayyar:
After a long hard-working day, what do you look forward to? Stress-busting tips?
LINN LOWES:
A huge tofu salad with dried cranberries and a reality show on TV! Haha, this is true. Im obsessed with this salad I make at least 3 times per week and to watch a show thats so far from my own life I can think of, is relaxing. I also just LOVE laying on the sofa with a blanket and having all my 3 dogs underneath it listening to a crime podcast.
