Sydney Dad Sheds 30kg, Transforms Life Through Sauna and Fasting

In 2023, Sydney-based father-of-three and business owner Anthony Simonetta was struggling with his health. Weighing 130kg and constantly stressed from long work hours, the now-34-year-old barely recognized himself. However, over the past two years, Simonetta has undergone a remarkable transformation, losing over 30kg and rediscovering the energy and self-belief he had long thought he had lost.

Simonetta's journey began with a simple yet powerful tool - the sauna. He found that regular sauna sessions helped calm his nervous system and provided the mental clarity to make other lifestyle changes. Gradually, he incorporated running and resistance training into his routine, but it was his disciplined approach to nutrition that truly kept the weight off. Intermittent fasting and a focus on whole, unprocessed foods proved most effective for Simonetta.

The benefits of Simonetta's wellness routine extend far beyond the number on the scale. He now reports having more energy, better immunity, and a stronger presence with his wife and three young children. Simonetta's renewed health has even reignited his entrepreneurial drive, leading him to open two sauna and wellness centers to help others experience the transformative power of these practices.
