Ms. Namita Nayyar:
How did you feel before and after winning 3 gold and 3 silver medals at the Olympics in 2008 and 2012?
Ms. Rebecca Soni:
In 2008, the whole experience was an amazing whirlwind! I never expected to come home with a gold medal!! In 2012, the story was a bit different. Being a returning gold medalist there was a lot more pressure, and I had my goals and dreams, but I also had the target on my back. After London 2012, there was a huge sense of relief and I was so grateful for how things turned out!
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
What exercises comprise your fitness regime or workout routine that you may like to share?
Ms. Rebecca Soni :
I did a lot of yoga towards the end of my swimming career, as a way to both gain flexibility and body awareness. I also loved the calming of the mind, that helped with my mental edge. This habit carried on after swimming ended, too.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Do you take some special diet or have a strict menu that you follow to remain healthy and physically fit?
Ms. Rebecca Soni :
I just ate clean when I raced. I didn’t have any super special or strict diet. I just wanted to make sure I felt good. Now, I am vegan, which has been an amazing experience! I love how great it makes me feel!
