Fitness freak Akshay Kumar couldn't bear to miss his daily regimen while shooting for Singh is Kinng in Australia and guess what he did? He climbed the 150 floors of his hotel daily! Later, he went and got a parkour equipment installed at home so that beta Aarav can benefit too.
Terusin Bacanya......Hrithik Roshan’s killer bod just doesn’t make it self. The man works hard for it. “I train four times in a week. I do cardio three days in a week. Cardio is like jogging on the runner or skip for about 25 minutes. My weight training is very simple. I just keep it very intense, very short. I don’t train for more than 40 minutes.
I just do enough to maintain myself. I don’t want to get bulky,” says the man with the most perfect sculpted arms in Bollywood. “I believe your body is 90 per cent your diet. And diet one has to take control of,” he adds. “Eat the right food. I don’t eat butter, ghee, oil. I just eat grilled boiled roasted stuff.”
Terusin Bacanya......Adnan Sami may have lost 109 kilos, but he insists that losing the last 20 kilos is going to be the toughest
Adnan Sami has received a 'fitting' response for having lost 109 kilos. The singer, however, says that it is still a 'weight and watch' situation for him as the next 20 kilos that will get him to his target weight of 80 kilos will be the toughest to knock off.
"Losing weight is like running a marathon, where running the last lapse is the toughest. You know you are close to victory but you're nearing exhaustion and need to put in that last-ditch effort, no matter what," says Adnan who is drawing support from friends and family in his effort to slim down. "I am able to keep at it only because of the co-operation and support I have received from my family and friends. It's getting very tougher each day but I am heartened by the support I have been receiving."
Adnan was shaken out of his complacence about his weight when his doctor had a word with him last year. "One day, my doctor bluntly told me that he wouldn't be surprised if my parents found me dead in a hotel."
That incident spelt a major turning point in his life. Adnan started his diet programme in July last year (2006) and since then life has been different for him. "Only after losing the first 20 kilos did people notice that I was slimmer. 'Oh, we actually see a dent somewhere" they would say," laughs Adnan. "Now I can experience the simple joys of life like any normal person. Guess what, I can sit crossed-legged now. Earlier I would sleep in a sitting position, now I lie down! I used to love travelling but it soon became a nightmare as I was so petrified of walking at the airports, not fitting into seats…"
Adnam Sami cut down on bread, rice, sugar and oil completely.
His diet includes salads, dal without tadka, tandoori fish without oil, popcorn without butter, Lots of sugar-free drinks and no alcohol.
Diet Chart
And for those interested in getting rid of that flab, here is the diet chart that he follows. “I am on salads, no bread, no rice, no oil and no alcohol,” says Adnan.
Rahul Dev, is a firm believer that nothing in life is better than a decent workout. He has converted that belief in concrete reality through his muscles."Everyone asks me, how do you maintain such a great physique? I tell them that to have a good body; you need to have a good mind. Only then can you concentrate on your fitness regime. I don't use any of these body-enhancing supplements because I think they do affect your body in the long run”, says Rahul.
Terusin Bacanya......Ever since Kareena Kapoor made a recent appearance at an event looking gaunt and washed out, warning bells began ringing in our heads. Was the drastic weight loss for a film role or was the normally healthy actress taking 'being fit' a little too seriously? When we first wrote about her unusually small frame last week, Kareena light-heartedly laughed off our concern. Then the story exploded in the media, with news channels going as far as to say that the actress is suffering from bulimia (an eating disorder where people purge food they've eaten by inducing vomiting) and is anorexic. Needless to say, the actress is upset with such talk and wants to clear the air.
Have you lost weight because of an eating disorder?
Are you mad? I am far from anorexic! I have lost weight for my role in Tashan. I've been training to do some action scenes hence the sudden trim-down. It's a great role and required it
So people are making an issue out of nothing?
That I have supposedly become anorexic is making national headlines and has gone completely out of hand! Everywhere I go, people ask me why I've lost so much weight. It feels good to know that I am so important, but I don't want people to panic. It's bizarre. When I put on weight people say I'm fat, when I lose it people say I'm anorexic!
Who is helping you with it?
I have a dietician called Roojuta and a yoga trainer from Bharat Thakur's school, whom I hired especially for Tashan. I'm following a healthy diet and a regular workout and fitness regime and feeling great. I've stopped eating junk food till Tashan gets over in November. I promise that after the filming is over I will start eating everything!
What is your mother's reaction to the rumours?
Well, she is concerned and keeps asking me to go and eat Chinese food with her (Bebo's favourite cuisine)! However, I'm off that too for the moment. I have worked very hard in the last seven months, so please don't take away from it by calling me anorexic. I just have to maintain it till November.
Some people think you're starving yourself.
Please! I don't starve. I am a Kapoor and our family's middle name is food. Till a month ago, I was eating lots of junk food like sandwiches, noodles, etc., but now I am preparing for a major shooting schedule so I have to maintain my weight. I am doing lots of yoga to tone up my body. After Tashan you will get to see a curvy Kareena once again.
How much weight have you lost since you started training?
About five kilos and it's all thanks to a healthy diet and regular exercise. Hollywood stars too have dieticians monitoring their food intake and physical exercise. When those stars lose weight why aren't they called anorexic?
