7 Workout Regimes Of Bollywood’s Top Celebritie­s That We All Need To Know About

Now following the no-carb-no-fried-no-junk diet to get that killer six pack, somehow seems out of question. *Pops in a chicken nugget*. So that leaves us with one thing — their workout regime.

So get ready to bend it like Bollywood, because we’ve got you 5 of the most sought after celebrity workout regimes.

SHILPA SHETTY

This is one Bollywood diva who just plain refuses to age and gets only better with each passing day. Shilpa has always gone on record to admit that her weak areas are the hip, the inner- outer thighs and the core region. So she regularly performs wide squats which help her strengthen the hips. After this she performs ab workouts. The Baazigar actress performs yoga, pranayam and meditation, strength training and other cardiovasc­ular exercises in order to stay fit.

JOHN ABRAHAM

When you think of John, the only thing that comes to your mind are the killer abs.*sigh*. But did you know that abs are the hardest part of the body to lose fat from? We certainly didn’t until John told us. He begins his session by performing crunches and leg raises for his abdominals. Then he does cross crunches and cross leg raises which helps work his internal and external oblique muscles. Finally, he uses plank exercises to develop the abdominal muscles. *Phew*

SALMAN KHAN

Salman must be a bhai for us, but he also happens to be a fitness guru for many within the industry. Never missing his workout regime, Salman regularly performs sit-ups for up to a count of 2000. This is followed by 500 abdominal crunches and 1000 push-ups. Besides his rigorous workout schedule, Mr. Chulbul Pandey also likes to go for cycling and jogging.

KATRINA KAIF

She’s gorgeous, a great dancer and an even bigger fitness freak. Katrina begins her day with a jog on the beaches as she believes the sand offers a good resistance. Then she hits the gym to train with her expert Yasmin Karachiwal­a. Katrina regularly does cardio and plank exercises. She also loves to cycle to tone her leg muscles. Apart from this, Kaif has also taken to aqua aerobics recently. *Clicks tongue*

DEEPIKA PADUKONE

Being Prakash Padukone’s daughter, Deepika comes from a sports background and is naturally athletic. But this Bollywood diva is very serious when it comes to her fitness regimes and doesn’t only rely on the gym to stay in shape. She diligently performs yoga apart from playing badminton. At the gym, Deepika does pilates and functional weight training. Recently, she has been doing a lot of this new exercise called 20-20-20 where she works out on three different machines for 20 minutes each, focusing on three different body parts.

TIGER SHROFF

So if there’s one actor that holds the potential to become the next Hrithik Roshan, then it’s Tiger Shroff. Green eyes, whatte dancer, and those ripping g biceps. However, not many know that jr. Shroff is actually a great fan of Bruce Lee, and practices martial arts on a regular basis himself. Even he has his workouts planned differentl­y as per the days of the week. He does a lot of lateral machine pull-downs, plyometric push-ups, and 10 kg weight loaded reverse crunches among a list of many other exercises. And trust us, there are many!

RANVEER SINGH

I think Ranveer Singh doesn’t need to workout, considerin­g he’s always so high on energy. But just like wifey, Singh also hates skipping workout sessions. Ranveer does highintens­ity training, followed by playing a sport. Which could be either of running, swimming or cycling. For his sculpted body, Ranveer does an hour of cardio twice a day starting with 10-20 minutes and then moves on to other her abs related exercises.
