"I have a few favorite trainers whom I've enjoyed following over some time now, including Melissa Wood, Megan Roup of Sculpt Society, and Shannon Nadj of Hot Pilates. It's extremely motivating to follow their workouts, even from the comfort of home. I usually gravitate toward workouts that incorporate a lot of Pilates. My favorite moves are making small circles and stretching your legs with ankle bands. Lastly, I like to use a resistance band, pointing your feet and pulsing up and down; it's great for the inner and outer thighs," Shanina revealed to Hum Nutrition about her workout.
Food-wise, Shanina eats according to her blood type (O), following the diet book Eat Right for Your Type by naturopathic physician Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo. "Im a meat eater and it's really important that I get a lot of protein and vegetables… so I get all my energy just from that, and I find it's working," she told Vogue. "Obviously I like to indulge. I have a huge sweet tooth… Chocolate and ice cream," she said. "I like to eat in moderation, I find if you deprive yourself of things, when it gets to that moment that's breaking point you overindulge. Eat in moderation and it'll all work out."
"To stay positive, do things that make you happiest," encourages Shanina. "Whenever possible, I go for long-distance hikes with my dogs," she told Hum. "Hiking is one of the best ways to get exercise. No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between," says the National Parks Service. Some of the physical benefits include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems. It also offers many mental health benefits, according to a Stanford University study.
Shaik exercises four to five times a week. "I work out consistently for my job and I always feel really energised and happy when I do," she told Vogue.
Shanina also loves yoga. "I never used to like yoga that much but I've found a new love for it," she said. Shaik goes to classes at Y7 Studio in New York. "It's not deep yoga, it's got hip hop music while you go through the flows and you get a really good sweat too so it's fun," she told Vogue.
