The Coolie No.1 actor is inspired by bodybuilding gods like Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Renowned Fitness Coach and Pilates trainer, Namrata Purohit, had shared insights about his diet and fitness secrets. Speaking to NDTV Food, she said, “Varun works out for about one and a half hours, four to six times a week depending on his schedule. He does a mix of pilates and weight training, and works on strengthening his body as well as on agility, flexibility, balance, and stability.”
Varun Dhawan usually starts his workout with warm-up exercises and then moves on to cardio and heavy-weight training. It is worth pointing out that he refrains from using a body double on the set and enjoys doing stunts himself for action scenes. He has been training with Namrata to increase his flexibility.
Namrata added, “Pilates has made Varun more flexible, and lean, and has improved his balance. He is also better able to cope with injuries and is being able to prevent them. Since he loves dancing, pilates has also helped his movements become more fluid and he’s gotten a lot stronger.” Varun Dhawan also loves cycling and said, “it’s the best way to get where you want.”
Celebrity fitness trainer Prashant Sawant, who is well known for training Shah Rukh Khan, had trained Varun as well for Judwaa 2 for a new training program called the Body Shred Program. Sawant said, “He basically does two forms of training i.e. weight training and pilates. However, each routine is different and every workout challenges him differently.”
Varun Dhawan’s Diet Plan
The Student of the Year actor often shares pictures on social media devouring pizza, cheesecake, and even a chocolate milkshake on his cheat day. However, on other days, he equally enjoys eating clean and leading a healthy lifestyle on the whole.
Varun Dhawan’s breakfast typically includes omelette, oatmeal, and a whole-wheat grain sandwich. During lunch, the actor eats brown rice, three chapatis, broccoli, and baked chicken. When he feels a snack attack coming his way, he eats lotus seeds, papaya, and banana or drinks a protein smoothie. However, he prefers a light dinner with plenty of mixed greens and grilled fish.
