The brains behind Anti-Cupcake Fitness and adrenalin junkie, Amal Sarwar takes us through her day!

5am:

Involved in a gripping dream adventure, which usually ends with me waking up to go to the bathroom.

8am:

Rise and shine at 7:30, and at 8am I am downstairs for the first bootcamp class of the day.

9am:

I wrap up with my morning squad (the liveliest of the lot) and head to the kitchen to sniff around for breakfast. I love listening to them linger and laugh outside even after I leave!

9:30am:

I take my time with breakfast, usually five egg whites and the very important cup of chai, possibly my favourite half hour ever.

10am:

A shower before my own training session. Weird but so essential.

11am:

If I get to the gym early, I squeeze in some cardio!

12 noon:

Covered in sweat, I take on a weight training session with my coach. Endorphins FTW.

1pm:

I head home with lunch on my mind…but obviously, it’s only proper I shower first right?

2pm:

During lunch I try to keep the protein high; usually chicken or if I’m lazy, microwavable kebabs.

3pm:

Dead to the world. This is my nap slot and I will literally sleep through a storm. Especially on low-carb days!

5pm:

I grab a cup of black coffee and shower again to smell good for my evening sessions. Time to head to the driveway!

6pm:

Almost done with the 5:30 class, but I have enough time to run in for a quick drink and wash before the 6:30 session.

7pm:

Two classes down, and the last one kicks off at 7:30. It’s dark by now, so I keep hydrating to stay pepped up for my last bunch of girls who are mostly office-goers.

8pm:

I wrap up the last class, snap a few pictures and share some laughs with the girls, then head back inside my house.

9pm:

Dinner with my parents while dad watches the news. Then we watch Stranger Things together. I’ve got them hooked.

10pm:

I start feeling the zzz’s and make sure I brush my teeth before I get too sleepy.

11pm:

Wherever I am in the world, I make sure I am home and tucked in at 11pm.
