Priyanka Chopra in Two-Piece Workout Gear Wears "Partial Padding for Stunts"
Priyanka Chopra is sharing some photos of her life "Lately" – in her workout gear. In a new social media post the actress flaunts her flat belly and fit figure while getting ready to do stunts. "Partial padding for stunts. Takes forever to get into costume. Sorry, ADs," she wrote in the caption of the Instagram post. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
She Eats "Salad, Protein, and Soup" When She Is Trying to Lose Weight
"I don't really have a diet. I wing it by the seat of my pants," Priyanka dished to ELLE. "It's such a girl thing to do, like if I feel, 'Ughh, I put on a few pounds' and I feel gross about [myself] I suddenly start eating salad, protein, and soup. Otherwise, if I am feeling like I am in great shape I am okay with cheeseburgers and pizza. So, when someone asks me about my diet I feel terrible saying that I don't really have one." Amping up your protein intake can help you lose weight. According to clinical trials, consuming more protein than the recommended dietary allowance not only reduces body weight (BW), but also enhances body composition by decreasing fat mass while preserving fat-free mass (FFM) in both low-calorie and standard-calorie diets.
Water "Is a Must"
According to the star, "juices and water are very high" are a top priority. "In fact, water is a must for everyone, at least 10 glasses a day. I often overshoot that, but it does wonders to your skin," she told Times of India. The Mayo Clinic explains that hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
Skipping
I love skipping. I learnt it really really well in school and then I learnt it even better during Mary Kom, so I try to get my cardio in my skipping. It's easy to carry, you have your skipping rope in your bag, it's easy to do," Priyanka revealed in an interview. "Not only can the repetitive movement of skipping rope elevate your heart rate, work muscles in the arms and legs and burn calories, it may even provide a quick jolt of joy," says Nike.
Not Eating After 8
Priyanka doesn't eat late at night. "I was very used to eating dinner right before I went to bed, but I changed that completely. I try not to eat after 8 o'clock," she told People.
Wellness
Priyanka doesn't believe that self-care is actually selfish. "If you have the ability to look out for your well-being, you also have the ability to look out for your family and friend's well-being," she said. "If you are inherently happy inside and you're investing in yourself and taking care of your own self, that's truly what wellness means.
"I start my day with some exercise," Priyanka told People. "Honestly, I work out only when I need to. My body responds very quickly to exercise, so I don't need too long to tone up and get into shape," she added to Vogue India. "I want to hit the gym but I work 15-hour days and I'm exhausted by the end of it."
