When did you originally catch the bug for fitness? Were you big into sports growing up?

I originally caught the bug for fitness when I started modeling. Coming from a French-Chinese background I love to eat rich food so naturally being active gave me the opportunity to balance that out. While I play tennis, run, and hike almost everyday, group fitness classes speak to my active lifestyle more than competitive sports. I love the fact that you can participate at all levels while staying in shape, learning new skills, and making friends.

The movement in women’s health beyond just dieting but also fitness is taking off. What are the physical and psychological benefits of it all?

The physical benefits to movement and fitness are obvious; becoming stronger and healthier while preserving your youth, but the psychological benefits are more profound. For me exercise is a way of catharsis. Being able to sweat away all the built up stress and frustrations from daily life in the city while gaining strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular health. To me breaking a sweat is the natural reaction to accomplishing all these things, which led to the brand Sweat The Style.

What are some of your favorite exercises?

Anything that makes me sweat! I run everyday, even if it’s a short distance and time because I can do it anywhere, for any amount of time, and don’t have to depend on equipment or a trainer to do it. Cardio is especially important for me because I have asthma and I need to work to keep my cardiovascular system strong. I also love high intensity interval training because it keeps my body guessing and always pushes my limits.
