Sangita maintains a protein rich diet. "I have a protein shake with a shot of espresso in the morning. I take that on the road, and that's my morning start," she told Canadian Living. "I'll usually have an omelette or hard-cooked eggs for lunch, or sometimes I'll have soup because I need more sodium in my diet." And for dinner? "I tend to have some carbs in the evening, which isn't necessarily the right way to do it. But I love basmati rice, and I love quinoa with chicken. I just try to eat before 7 p.m." And, she never skips dessert. “One really easy, healthy dessert is taking a banana, slicing it open, spread- ing on some good peanut butter and a little bit of dark chocolate, wrap- ping it in foil and baking it for a few minutes."

Sangita “hates cardio” but builds muscle with the help of Muay Thai “I started looking different because I’m getting a little bit thicker in the muscles,” she says. “It’s not that slim look, and I’m really proud of that,” she told Strong Fitness. “It’s just been such a blast doing it. It’s like you’re taking all of that negative energy out of you and letting it all go,” she said.

5. She Has a Workout Buddy

Sangita has a great workout buddy: Her husband. The two hit Crossfit classes every morning before work. “It’s something that just is a ritual, like this morning, with [daylight savings time], I still woke up and went to the gym even though I had to drag myself out of bed,” she told Stong Fitness. “It’s just something that I don’t even question anymore. So I’ve come to that point where fitness not only makes me feel great, but it’s part of life.”
