Kriti Sanon
As fate would have it, a film venture that required her to gain 15 kilograms redefined Kriti Sanon’s fitness journey. Ever since Sanon adopted a new routine to shed the weight she had gained for Mimi, she has turned heads with her athletic abilities, which became increasingly prominent after the release of her last actioner.
For anyone hoping to learn about Sanon’s fitness routine, her social media feed could be deceptive. She does, after all, explore a variety of formats. Ask her which ones she has most benefited from, and she says, “Given the kind of body type that I have, I prefer to choose exercise formats like weight-training coupled with 30-second-long bursts of activities that shoot the heart rate. Typically, these are HIIT-styled exercises, and this mix is suitable for me. Because I lose weight very quickly, I prefer not to do too many cardiovascular activities. Sometimes, I may also practice yoga or incorporate flexibility exercises into my routine. I also meditate.”
For Sanon, however, developing a liking for fitness was a work in progress. It was during the time that she had to lose the 15 kilos that she had packed on for Mimi that she chanced upon trainers with whom she subsequently went on to launch a business venture. “This was during COVID-19, and I had to train from home. The three trainers I trained with had started virtual sessions, and each of their energies was fresh. Each had something unique about their styles that made exercising enjoyable. The fact that I wasn’t executing the same monotonous routine again and again felt good. In case I needed to be in recovery or had injured my knee, [my trainer] knew which exercises would help me recover. Many people are often not motivated to exercise, but fitness is something that should be part of their lives, so the idea is to make it as [interesting] as you can. People think of exercise as something that needs to be regimented. But when you make it fun, you can integrate it into your life.”
