Sushant Singh Rajput believes in eating right. When he got his first Bollywood movie, he had to sport a chiselled body. So, he decided to stay away from his favourite aaloo and gobi paranthas with butter and switched to boiled vegetables, protein shakes, and sprouts. According to him, even one extra calorie messes up your fitness goals. Hence, it is better to stick to a balanced meal and control the cravings.
When hungry, Sushant prefers having boiled sprouts over junk food, and he always keeps some near him to avoid eating junk food. He drinks protein shakes and does not prefer trying different flavours of the shake. He stays away from fried food and sweets as well. For dinner, he prefers having chicken and rice.
Recently, his trainer posted a picture of his transformation that happened in 8 weeks. Take a look:
“We all need three Important things to achieve what we desire in life -
Discipline, hard work and, before everything, commitment.
It was Sushant's character that got him of bed at 5 am in the morning, his commitment that moved us into action for our daily workout, discipline that enabled him to follow through a fit and healthy lifestyle.
