Namita Nayyar:
What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine you may wish to share?
Lucy Kenward:
I used to be a cheerleader and I am a self-taught gymnast so I have always been very active. I also love to do stretches and yoga in the morning, after waking up to get me ready for the day.
Namita Nayyar:
How do you train your abs? One secret to your toned body.
Lucy Kenward:
I typically do gymnastics and that’s how I keep my toned body and abs. This is because it is a very intense cardio workout, along with using your body weight and the strength of your muscles to hold yourself up and to be able to stick out the flips.
Namita Nayyar:
Women Fitness talks about diets and fitness regime; do you follow any special diet? What is your favorite cuisine?
Lucy Kenward:
I typically stick to the same foods for a long period of time until I get bored of them. At the moment for breakfast I have Oats with fruit. For lunch I have Avocado and Egg on toast. I also enjoy a portion of pesto pasta if I’m on the go. For dinner I always have chicken with my meals as it’s such a rich and healthy protein source.
I have also recently been having Teriyaki salmon and rice, which is divine! My favorite cuisine is probably Asian food, specifically Chicken Pad Thai, however this is a high calorie meal due to the noodles, this can always be substituted for something else to make it healthier, however it’s a great filling meal as a treat!
Namita Nayyar:
Five foods you absolutely love and five you keep to a minimum.
Lucy Kenward:
I love Potatoes, they are so versatile and I can never get bored of them. Secondly, chicken is something I eat and love daily as there are so many different meals you can add this to. My third favorite food is probably watermelon as it’s super tasty and full of water for hydration. Another food I love is dried apricots, such a tasty snack for on the go! Last but not least, pasta as once again very versatile and filling, despite it being carb filled, it’s great for my intense cardio workouts as I need the energy.
Five foods I enjoy but try to keep to a minimum would probably be chocolate, cake, bread, chips and pastries. Absolutely lovely but try not to indulge too often!

You have glowing skin and gorgeous hair. Share with us your hair care and skincare routine.
Lucy Kenward:
I make sure to spend a bit more money and take some extra care when looking into the kindest products for my hair and skin. For my skincare routine I start with a Niacin-amide toner, followed by 2 serums, Hydrochloric acid for hydration and absorption of my skincare products, along with vitamin c for brightening. I then go in with Kiehls daily moisturizer and avocado eye cream. For my hair I always try to avoid sulphates as it strips the natural oils in my hair too much. I like to use a Shea hair mask once a week for max hydration and it leaves my hair feeling silky smooth.
