My 7 DAYS active: Bamba Lowe

posted on June 16, 2026

At 7 DAYS Active, we believe an active life is about more than movement — it’s a mindset. Rooted in our core values of BODY, MIND, and SOUL, we’re launching “My 7 DAYS Active” — a new monthly series on our social platforms.

We invite our community to share how they stay active throughout the week — from workouts to moments of mindfulness. It’s all about living with intention, balance, and energy, every day.

This month we asked, Bamba Lowe, about everything from his workout routine to how he stays motivated to keep moving.

What is your go-to workout/activity?

My go-to workout activity is Muay Thai. I am a Thai boxer, and I love everything about the sport.

What does your active week look like?

My activeweek usually looks pretty packed. In between balancing clients and my own training, I have between 4–8 sessions of various different activities.

I try to maintain a balanced outlook, giving the body the rest it needs in order to
perform, personally and professionally.

How do you stay motivated to keep moving every day?

Motivation barely exists, and when it does, it exists in very changing times, like the
weather. Discipline is what drives me. Discipline is what keeps you going morning after morning, night after night, in order to invest in yourself and your long-term health. In the end, all that matters is being able to move as freely and for as long into life as you possibly can.

What role does being active play in your overall well-being?

Staying active plays a giant role in my overall well-being. I believe that moving the body is an essential part of getting out of your own head. I always used to say: when the mind is stuck, you move the body; when the body is stuck, you move your mind. Investing in being active, getting into your body, feeling the restrictions, and then powering and
fighting through them gives you a feeling of strength that lasts throughout the day, the week, or the month.

Do you prefer to work out alone or together with others—and why?

Outside of Muay Thai, I prefer to work out alone. This is because the maximum focus, the maximum pressure, and the maximum expectations are the ones that I put on myself. Very few people I have known (at least outside of the health industry) are willing to push themselves to the level that I normally do in my sessions. Don't get me wrong, I love the community aspect of training: working out, pushing each other’s
boundaries, and sharing the burden of training. But then, it’s with a select few who you know are interested in the same level of intensity.

What is your favorite place to be active?

It would have to be a combination. I love a great outdoor gym, and running is clearly better outdoors, but pushing yourself in a well-equipped gym with plenty of space and free time is a favorite.

How do you balance being active with rest and recovery during the week?

I take restitution very seriously, and I listen to my body in every way, positively or negatively. I pay attention to whether it is overworked, if it needs rest, if I need a lower-intensity session, or if I need to switch up Muay Thai for strength training or running.

Ultimately, it is not about how much you can train if you are already motivated or disciplined; it is about how well you can restitute. Proper restitution is what decides how much your body can take and develop.
