Get to know our friend Libby Babet from Bottoms Up! Fitness and AGOGA on her breakfast choices, favourite workouts & makeup must-haves.
VIE ACTIVE LIST
Sunrise or Sunset workout? Which do you prefer?
Sunrise!
Typical workout:
High intensity interval training, mixed with multi-plane functional resistance training (weights or body weight).
Typical breakfast:
This varies, depending on whether I’ve worked out or not, but usually something with protein (eggs, chicken, Sunwarrior protein smoothie)
What’s your ultimate healthy meal?
It’s so hard to choose – I love food and the fresher the better! I love a good fish with salad from Mongers in Bondi though, that’s hard to go past.
What are your makeup must-haves?
Mineral foundation – I love Jane Iredale, Dermaquest, or Nude by Nature.
What’s always in your gym bag?
A bikini, just in case I can fit in a quick swim at Bondi!
Best active holiday you’ve ever taken?
Surfing holidays at “The Pass” in Byron… bliss!
What totally relaxes you?
Reading a book! I love novels and the more magic contained in their pages the better. I know, I know…
What’s your biggest vice?
Dark chocolate! Let me guess… it’s yours too? ;)
What was the last thing you recommended to a friend?
Hexey – I get dinner delivered 5 days a week and I love it – healthy, organic, portion perfect meals delivered fresh every morning. The best thing ever when I get home late!
What’s always in your fridge?
Fresh coconuts, or Raw C coconut water.
What would we be surprised to find in your fridge?
Buffalo milk yoghurt. Not many people know about it but it’s a super delicious, healthy dairy alternative.
Your style icon?
Hmm… I don’t have one! But I LOVE surf gear, so I style-stalk all the surf websites for fashion ideas.
Your "healthy living" hero?
I love John Berardi from Precision Nutrition.
The wardrobe item you can’t live without:
The denim shorts I bought when I was 17 and still own today! I love these things so much that I won’t even leave them on the beach unattended while I swim, in the fear that someone will run off with them. We’ve been together for almost 15 years now and still going strong. Sigh…
The book/s on your bedside table right now:
The Wild Girl by K. Forsyth
Speed Trap by Charlie Francis
Three things on your bucket list:
Spend a week diving on Turtle Island in Fiji.
Launch AGOGA Online (watch this space…)
Have a baby (awww)
Your latest obsession:
Surfing! I’m not very good but I love being in the water.
Number one reason for living an active life:
It’s who I am. I truly couldn’t live any other way!
Message you’d send to the world:
Don’t give up what you want most for what you want right now.
