Bollywood's fittest star Akshay Kumar, is synonyms for discipline when it comes to health. Regardless of the fate of his film, Akshay never let's his professional life hinder his training.
Akshay is famous for his strict rules and the healthy lifestyle that he lives. This one actor who stays away from partying and any form of addiction has been currently shooting in Abu Dhabi, for Neeraj Pandey's film 'Baby'.
Despite of shooting high octane action scenes in sultry heat of the middle eastern country, the actor has not let his personal fitness training to get affected.
"Sir is not a faffer at all. It doesn't matter whether you are a big person or small, he doesn't waste anyone's time. He respects everybody's time and makes the most of every training session. He trains early morning for 2 hours, then shoots action through the day at such high temperatures on the desert and then returns again to train on boxing for his next film every night for an hour-and-a-half," said his trainer who is with him in Abu Dhabi.
Interestingly, not many know that the actor who is also training for his next film, has embarked on a new training style which is difficult but not impossible according to Akshay. He is currently doing core training with 'Wooden Beads' which he has bought from Singapore.
"These are 50 wooden beads that can go up to 175. My 50 beads weigh about 2-3 kilos. These are specific for core training. You can get the beads to go around correctly only if you use your inner strength and not by throwing around. Since I do so much action, I need to protect my spine for which the strongest part of my body has to be my core. I do upto 5-10 minutes at one stretch with 1-2 minutes on the neck, as it is very difficult to breathe that time. This workout strengthens my bones and has no side effect. It beats your fat, stimulates your blood flow and trains your inner core. If you do it wrong, the beads will drop. It works your cardio, so when you finish, it tones you up from the inside out," Akshay concluded.
Hope Akshay's colleagues and his fans take an inspiration from him to lead a healthy lifestyle.
