Nathalie Schyllert
Her high spirits never left her shattered when she left ballerina training due to injury and worked towards an athletic and sporty body, later, which grants her fame to endorse world’s famous brands like Adidas, Stella McCartney, and Elle. Running a one-to-one personal training company named as Bodyism in Bulgari Hotel in London, Nathalie believes in lengthening, strengthening and toning circuits with addition to clean and lean lifestyle.
She has shared three things that make a difference in shaping fitness:
- Stay away from stress. With intent or unintentionally, stress can pay you a visit whatever or whoever the reason could become. Due to increase in stress hormone cortisol, our body becomes prone to gain weight which affect, especially, around middle.
- Make organic food mandatory in your life and diminishing bad carbs including pasta, bread, etc and sugar from your living.
- If long runs don’t make you satisfied then skip that and instead go for something you feel like doing with heart and soul. This will help you too in cutting stress level hence you will lose more weight.
- Nathalie’s exercise routine nearly rotates around her working hours. Her training sessions include: two hours long dynamic yoga sessions and one regeneration session (whether stretching, foam rolling legs or a massage), in addition she prefers to walk to and from office; 20 minutes single side.
- Nathalie’s mantra to gauge her body shape is entirely different. She uses mirror or clothes to keep in check with her weight changes rather than a weighing scale. Her days no more than two days off on special occasions in exercise routine.
