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.
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 high- intensity 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 abs related exercises.
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 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!
