The cover girl says she works out four times a week with weights for two days and cardio for two other. When shooting or traveling, Mandana does twenty minutes of online-stimulated workout in her room.
`I eat healthy and eat a lot,` she admits. `But I'm very active throughout the day. Plus I don't mind becoming a bit fuller,` she winks.
What's surprising is that the shapely gal has no diet plan at all! `I've never had one,` she reveals. `I'm blessed with very high metabolism. But recently, when I returned to my routine after a break, I was asked to eat chocolates only once in a week.`
Bananas, almonds, salmon, dark chocolate and eggs are Mandana's energy boosters. For a zero-flab diet, the girl recommends eating breakfast regularly and snacking throughout the day; as well as drinking lots of water to keep energy levels high.
But talk to her about her lifestyle and she says `it's boring`. She doesn't smoke or drink alcohol. Neither does she enjoy nightlife much! `I try to sleep and wake up early and love to have lots of baby sleep in my free time. I also try to get as many massages I can, as they are fab for blood circulation.`
But what Mandana craves for is a nice meal at her favourite quaint restaurants on weekends. Come Sundays, and she also plays table tennis. Makes us wonder if we can call her a homely firebrand!
