Indian actress Amyra Dastur is showing fans what a typical strength training workout looks like for the star. Dastur, 31, shared a video of herself wearing a variety of workout gear, going through different workouts at the gym using weights and machines. She also does mat exercises using a medicine ball, and barbell lifts under the eye of a personal trainer. "A little #mondaymotivation 🦾," she captioned the post. Dastur refers to herself as a "fitness freak"—here's what her diet, exercise, and wellness regimen looks like.
Running and Stretching
Dastur does strength training, cardio, and stretching most days of the week. "I work out almost every day. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are my leg days," she told ELLE. "I start my session with 15 minutes of cardio on the treadmill with high-intensity jogging and then mix ab exercises and leg exercises. On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, I work on my upper body. After my workouts, I spend at least 15-20 minutes stretching to cool my body down and ensure my muscles don't get stiff and tight the next day. It takes me about an hour or two to work out."
Dance and Diet
Dastur incorporates regular dance classes into her workout routine. "I hit the gym in the morning and go for a dance class in the evening," she told IndulgeExpress. "I'm also a big foodie. So I eat all I want but in a minimum quantity and also make sure to sweat it out in the gym."
Good Skin From Within
Dastur has a holistic approach to beauty and wellness. "I believe in good skin from within," she told ELLE. "I get a cleanse done every three months and flush out my stomach. A clean stomach allows better absorption of nutrients, and it helps with good skin. [My biggest beauty indulgence is] definitely my creams and makeup products. I buy the best, as it is my face that earns me my projects and brands. I am a skincare junkie and always on the lookout for new launches. I even have LED face masks at home."
Not a Nepo Baby
Dastur had to fight her way to success, unlike some artists she believed had an advantage from their family name. "There was definitely a lot of rejection," she told IndulgeExpress. "When you see a star kid has a film just because of their second name, it hurts. My biggest lesson has been to move on. You learn, improve and focus on what you want to do,"
Learning To Love Herself
Dastur is passionate about living an authentic life. "It takes time and a lot of mental strength to accept yourself for who you are," she told ELLE. "Especially today with filters and apps that make you look different. I've learnt to love myself, and it's been a struggle. A girl's body changes with time and your mindset has to change with it, or you will never be happy… You should look like the same person in real life as on your social media. I enjoy experimenting, but not to the point where it doesn't look like me at all."
