1. She Works Out Every Day

Disha prioritizes exercise, never skipping a day. “I work out everyday and my routine usually involves cardio in the mornings, like dancing, kick boxing or gymnastics, and weight training in the evenings,” she told Vogue India. “The key is to do enough and to do it often enough. For health, doctors should ‘prescribe’ at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise or 15 minutes of intense exercise a day,” says Harvard Health.

2. She Hydrates

According to Disha, hydration is key. She told Vogue that her water bottle “is the most important part of any workout.” “The daily four-to-six cup rule is for generally healthy people. It's possible to take in too much water if you have certain health conditions, such as thyroid disease or kidney, liver, or heart problems; or if you're taking medications that make you retain water, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opiate pain medications, and some antidepressants,” says Harvard Health.

3. Weight Training Is Key

Disha told Vogue that the biggest misconception “is that women working out involves cardio, not weight training,” she told Vogue. “But we all work out and do heavy weights; I come across so many girls in the gym training really hard. At the end of the day, it isn't about the gender, but about working on your body and becoming your fittest self.”

4. Her Diet Focuses on Protein and Carbs

Disha “supplements” her exercise regimen with a “protein-carbs” diet, she told Vogue. “I have fallen into this bad habit where I don't eat anything in the mornings before working out, because I feel very full while exercising if I do. But, it is definitely advisable to cram in a small meal before a work out, consisting of some protein, like eggs. After exercising, it is good to add protein again, either through chicken, eggs or paneer.”

5. She Lives for Cheat Days

Disha celebrates her success by treating herself to cheat days. “I absolutely love them; in fact, I wait for cheat days the whole week. Depending on the diet I am following and my shoot schedule, I sit down once a week and eat everything I can fit into my stomach,” she confessed to Vogue.

6. She Kickboxes

Disha also kickboxes. She recently shared an Instagram video showing off her kick-butt skills, and her followers were impressed to say the least. Or try regular boxing. “There's no proof that fitness boxing is superior to any other types of exercise, but it does have many health benefits. One is strength,” says Harvard Health. "You're swinging your arms, moving the muscles of your arms and shoulders, increasing your upper-body strength. And when you're in the boxer crouch with a wide stance, with your knees slightly bent, you're strengthening your core muscles, back, and legs," says physical therapist Linda Arslanian, director of rehabilitation services at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women's Hospital.

1. She Does Gymnastics

Patani is quite the gymnast and can do a lot of flips. She posted this reel on Instagram of herself doing several acrobatic moves at the gym, with the help of a trainer. She also posted this slow motion reel of herself doing a backflip off a stack of mats. “Gymnasts require stamina and good cardiovascular health,” sports medicine specialist Marie Schaefer, MD, tells the Cleveland Clinic. “Exercises that get your heart pumping are beneficial both during and between competition seasons.”

2. She Practices Martial Arts

Patani is a very talented martial artist as well. She has posted several videos on Instagram of herself practicing martial arts and working on certain moves at her gym. For something more relaxing, try tai chi. "Tai chi is an ancient Chinese tradition that, today, is practiced as a graceful form of exercise. It involves a series of movements performed in a slow, focused manner and accompanied by deep breathing," says the Mayo Clinic. "Tai chi, also called tai chi chuan, is a noncompetitive, self-paced system of gentle physical exercise and stretching. Each posture flows into the next without pause, ensuring that your body is in constant motion."

3. She Dances

Another physical activity that Patani likes to post videos of herself doing on Instagram is herself dancing. She posted this reel of herself and her friends dancing to a Nicki Minaj song, captioning it, “Girls on set.” She also posted this reel of herself and her friends doing the Woman Dance Challenge, captioning it, “Throwback to us just chilling.” This kind of "aerobic exercise may ease the gloominess of depression, reduce the tension associated with anxiety and promote relaxation. It can also improve your sleep," says the Mayo Clinic.

4. She Loves To Go To The Beach

Patani is a big fan of going to the beach for some fresh air and time by the water. She has posted several stunning beachside photos and videos on Instagram, of herself enjoying the ocean, lounging, or posing in the sunset. Being outside: "It offers an emotional boost and can help you feel less tense, stressed, angry or depressed. And sunlight can give your body vitamin D, too," says the Mayo Clinic. "And don't let cold weather stop you from being active outdoors! Dress in layers and protect your head, hands and feet. Then head outside for a winter hike or go cross-country skiing. And aim to keep a positive mindset about winter. This may help you to enjoy the season and winter activities more."

5. She Lifts Weights

One of the ways Patani stays in shape is lifting weights and strength training. She posted this reel on Instagram of herself doing deadlifts with a huge barbell and support from her trainer. She captioned the post, “80kg 1 rep.” "Barbell training goes far beyond focusing on how to move with weights. A lot of the movements involved are ones that we do daily. If you can master them, you’ll be OK whether you’re at home or the gym," says the Cleveland Clinic. “I like to teach people how to squat properly and many times, I’ll do that by having them use a chair. This teaches them how to be more aware of the alignment of their hips, knees and ankles. This is important because it can help people keep their heels on the floor like they’ll need to do when squatting," says personal training coordinator Scott Crabiel.

Disha Patani just shared a set of new photos on Instagram to update her followers on her life. She’s been having a lot of beach days. In one photo, Patani wore a brown bathing suit with fringe. In another, she went for a dip in the pool in a pink bikini with blue flowers. In another pool photo, she wore another pink bikini, this time with silver dots. She captioned the post, “Random.” How does she stay so fit?

But always keep comfort as your top priority, and ensure that you are opting for the right size—your shoes shouldn't be too big, loose or tight.”

2. She Does Cardio and Weights

Patani makes sure to workout regularly, and does a variety of things. “I work out everyday,” she tells Vogue. “My routine usually involves cardio in the mornings, like dancing, kick boxing or gymnastics, and weight training in the evenings. I supplement that with a protein-carbs diet.”
