Maneet Chauhan is getting her sweat on with her personal trainer. In a new social media post, the Food Network star gives her followers a glimpse into her rigorous workout routine, which she executes at home with her personal trainer. She shared the clip via her Instagram Stories. How did the 47-year-old slim down and get into the best shape of her life? Celebwell has the details on her lifestyle habits.
Motivation is a key part of getting in shape and Maneet had a very clear drive. “It was important for me to be healthy not only for the way I look or feel but also for the message that I was sending to my kids,” Maneet said in an interview with Parade. “I was telling them it’s OK to be overweight and not take care of yourself, and that’s not the message I want to send them.”
“I couldn’t go on a restrictive diet like keto or paleo because I eat for a living,” Maneet told Parade, explaining that she tracked her calories with the help of an app. “I kept to 1,200 calories a day, which would pretty much start with me logging my two glasses of wine and two pieces of chocolate, so I knew what I had left,” she said.
A fan recently asked Maneet for more details about her diet. “Intermittent fasting nothing to eat till 12 and then 2 meals a day 4oz protein, 4 oz fruits and 4 oz vegetables. No fats, no carbs, no sugars,” she responded.
She added to the follower that she walks “at least 10,000 [steps] a day.” “If I’m at the airport and the lounge is over there, I’m like, ‘No, I haven’t done my steps.’ So I walk from one end of the airport to the other with my suitcase,” she told Parade. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.
As can be evidenced by her latest workout video, Maneet also does strength training exercises, using simple equipment like exercise bands and her own body weight. She also incorporates yoga moves into her routine.
