Some alter their diet while others try to indulge in physical exercise. Some resort to yoga while others prefer to go on a run. Here's what all the actors do to stay fit.
* Mreenal Deshraj
"When I am working and don't have time to go to the gym, I usually workout at home. I try to do at least 30-45 minute of an intense workout. Whereas when we are shooting outdoor or on a holiday, I take care of my diet and try to do some kind of physical exercise."
* Arif Zakaria
"Fitness doesn't need a gym or an expansive space. The world is tailored to walk, run or sit on a mat and pontificate. I try and do all of this when I travel. Of course, I also try to find a tennis court to play."
* Zuber K. Khan
"As an actor, I always try to manage my day and schedule it accordingly. I swim and go to the gym daily at least six days a week. Fitness is the one thing which gives me a high in life. If I'm on outdoor shoots and not able to workout, I try to run and do parkour workouts outdoor."
* Amal Sehrawat
"Personally, I don't like gymming, though I have to hit the gym for the sake of my packs. I love running on the beach or gardens. I prefer the stairs over the lift. During my outdoor shoots, I stay outdoors."
* Ira Sone
"I have a love-hate relationship with fitness and diet. I love to eat as I am a foodie but I also love to hit the gym, to get results you need to balance both. On days, when I can't hit the gym, I make sure to control what I eat and try to walk after all meals. But as an actor, I need to be fit so that I can work for 12 hours."
* Jasmin Bhasin
"I do yoga and a little bit of cardio to keep myself fit because it's very important for me to feel healthy from the inside."
* Ankit Bathla
"It's a very interesting story, when I can't go to the gym, my trainer comes on the set and we work out with the weights of the crane. I also believe that there are so many functional activities that can be done without a gym burpees and the best is our Surya Namaskar."
* Malhar Pandya
"You can be fit with yoga and a good diet. As an actor, if I say fitness is very important to me, it doesn't mean that I have to be muscular. It's good to be lean because as an actor you can fit in any role or clothes. Even if I would have not been an actor, I would have been fit. When I go outdoors for a shoot, there are certain kinds of exercises which can be done there itself, which don't not need a gym, so I do those."
