Reliance on Supplements

The flamboyant actor banks on protein supplements such as whey protein and creatine to fulfill the requirement of protein in his body. Since plant based foods are incapable to meet soaring protein requirement of his body, he relies on supplements to help his body enhance muscle mass. Intense weight training causes tear of muscles and if you don’t feed protein to your body, your body gets unable to deal with the loss of muscles. So, it’s critical for you to consume minimum thirty grams of protein in a day.

Vivid Goal

The actor has his fitness goal very vivid in his mind. He seldom targeted to acquire six or eight pack abs with workouts; his objective rather was to build up his strength, stamina, and endurance. His muscular body can only be seen as one of the positive side effects of grueling workouts meant to strengthen his body.

Six Days Workouts

Shahid has divided his workout regime in two parts. While one part consists of days like Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, other part consists of Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. His days being divided on the basis of his body parts has him focus on them entirely. His workouts are proportionate mix of cardio and strength training. He also practiced martial training and other vigorous exercises for his role in the 2013 movie, R… Rajkumar where his body looked incredibly ripped and fab. Aside from doing sweaty workouts under the guidance of his fitness instructor, Abbas Ali, he also executes moderate workouts such as yoga, swimming etc. And at times when he falls short of time, he makes sure that he doesn’t let the day pass without practicing any workout.
