09 - Anam Tabba - Real Health and Fitness for Pakistani Women

The Localist Podcast is all about finding the local heroes of Pakistan that might have otherwise gone unnoticed. Anam Tabba is a perfect example of one of these heroes. She's one of the most highly-qualified fitness professionals in the country, and holds certifications from OPEX, CrossFit, and Precision Nutrition.  Anam tells us about her experiences as an athletic female growing up, and how the obstacles she faced ultimately steered her towards building a fitness practice that caters specifically to the needs of women. No fad diets, and "butt blaster" workouts, but sustainable fitness programs that take the needs of real women into account helping them live longer, more fulfilling lives.  From her early days hanging around gyms in Karachi begging clients to listen to her, to having her own studio, Anam is no stranger to the grind. Listen to her here, on her first-ever podcast appearance.
