She Mixes Up Her Workouts
Natalie does a lot of different things, to stay in shape. "I don't like to stick to one type of exercise because this way my body responds better and doesn't get used to just running or just a Pilates class. On a more relaxed day or one where I don't want to think too hard about what I want to do, I like running on the treadmill or running outside and then I do a reformer Pilates class where I get in, get it done and tick all the boxes. On the days where I'm feeling more energised and switched on, I hit the gym and do little weight circuits and high intensity training which usually involves skipping, squats, lunges, burpees and ab work. I'll do, like, one minute on, 20 seconds off, four times," she told Grazia. "I train five days a week. Two days a week, I will choose sleep over getting up and going to the gym."
She Does Fasted Cardio
"Cardio is really good for me," claims Natalie. "Most mornings, I will get up, put on my 2XU tights and go for a three-kilometre run either outside or on the treadmill. I do fasted cardio – this means I train before I've had any breakfast – and I think my body responds really well to that in terms of weight loss or controlling my weight. Everybody is completely different though. I grew up running so I feel like my body is built for that, but it's not for everyone."
This Is What She Eats in a Day
Natalie maintains a healthy and nutritious diet, fueling her body with the protein and carbs she needs. "I am a smoothie breakfast girl. I like almond milk, frozen blueberries, banana, protein powder, chia seeds and cacao," she said about her first meal of the day. For lunch, which she calls "a second breakfast" she will whip something up. "I'll have eggs or something with carbs like a sweet potato or potato with leafy greens and salad. I'm usually on the run come lunchtime so you'll see me grabbing something from Spud Bar in Melbourne which I've only recently discovered. If I'm home, I'll cook up some brown rice with spinach, tomatoes and a dash of soy sauce. I keep my lunch pretty basic because I snack a fair bit throughout the day on fruit and nuts. For me, dinner's where it's at, that's where I load up," she added to Grazia. For dinner she loves pasta made from chickpeas. "It's delicious! I've been having that with a tomato base with heaps of veggies or a coconut cream sauce. I'm a vegetarian but I do try and eat vegan when the option is available. I'm a pretty big eater so I like that that makes me feel full and curbs my carb craving!"
She Drinks Lots of Water
"I feel most confident when I'm healthy," Natalie explains. "I don't have to look my best but if I've been taking care of myself, I feel so much better. My skin is clearer if I'm eating well, drinking lots of water and staying off the alcohol – and I'm going to feel a lot better in my bikini even if I haven't worked out as much. Feeling like I'm doing good things to my body is my tip because even if I don't look at the top of my game, in that moment, I'm feeling confident about my progress."
She Cheats
Natalie is all about the occasional cheat meal, which she finds helps her stay on track with her diet. "I find pizza night super enjoyable. It's a really happy moment in life when the pizza delivery man arrives at the door! If I have a big weekend and need a detox come Monday morning, I'll eat super clean, have my smoothie, have my light lunch, go to the gym in the afternoon and have a sauna session so I can sweat out the toxins from the weekend. I follow that up with a good night's sleep and I'm back on track!" she tells Grazia.
