The secret to Amitabh Bachchan’s fit lifestyle is dedication and discipline. Here’s a closer look at the actor’s diet and workout regime.
Amitabh Bachchan always manages to take time out for his workouts.
At the age of 82, Amitabh Bachchan shows no signs of slowing down. The veteran actor continues to be on top of his game. Be it his professional commitments or his fitness, the actor’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. He has battled several health challenges like tuberculosis but he has always managed to come out stronger than ever.
Let’s take a closer look at the actor’s diet and workout regime.
In an earlier interview with Humans of Bombay, Amitabh Bachchan’s wellness trainer Vrindaa Mehta revealed how the actor always manages to sneak in a workout here and there. She said, “If Amitabh Bachchan can make time to exercise, normal people can too. The mindset is, when you know something is good for you, you just do it. It’s not about comfort, it’s not about not having time… If Mr. Bachchan can make time to exercise, regular people can, of course, take out time to exercise.”
Mehta revealed that Bachchan is a huge fan of yoga. She continued, “My sessions with Amit ji are more about breath work. We start with basic breath exercises and move on to pranayams, and basic yoga stretches. Mindset… He’s the father of it all.”
Additionally, wellness trainer Shivohaam also remarked on Bachchan’s dedication to fitness. He said, “There are times when we have to tell him, ‘Let’s not train right now, it’s not ideal for you.’ The point is, he does take out the time, whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening, or even between meetings because he knows it’s important.”
For his diet, Bachchan believes in keeping things simple. In one of his blog posts, the actor shared that he begins his day with a simple breakfast which includes protein shakes, almonds, porridge, or coconut water. He said, “In my youth, I would eat, but now I have left eating non-veg dishes, sweet items, and rice, and won’t speak any further.”
Additionally, he also mentioned how he likes to start his day with gooseberry juice and dates to start his day on a power-packed note. He also revealed that he snacks on healthy nuts to curb his cravings.
