1. She Practices Yoga

Gupta is a big fan of practicing yoga as a way of staying in shape. And yoga is a big part of her life, if you take a look at her Instagram page. Gupta has an Instagram story highlight on her page called “Fitness,” which is just herself doing different poses. She’s also posted several photos on Instagram of herself doing different yoga poses and practicing meditation. "Research has found evidence that treatment programs including regular meditation practice can help reduce depression; improve sleep, improve pain management, quit smoking, improve self-esteem, improve concentration, decrease menopausal symptoms, and reduce the severity of symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome," says the Cleveland Clinic.

2. She Boxes

Gupta loves to take boxing classes as a way to stay in shape. She posted this video on Instagram from the gym of herself working out with her trainer, with the Post Malone and The Weeknd song “One Right Now” as the background music. Gupta captioned the reel, “@boxeopath killing me softly, posty giving me feels. Thank you @adito_sen @thefitskeptic @knox.studio for making me prep for #invisblewoman. You guys are beast love you.”

3. She Snorkels

Gupta loves to go to the beach, and especially loves doing different physical activities in the water. One activity that she likes to do is go snorkeling. She posted this series of stunning photos on Instagram of herself snorkeling in the ocean at the Reethi Faru Resort. Gupta captioned the photo, “Being Dory,” referencing the Pixar character.

4. She’s Not Worried About Being Thin

When it comes to fitness, Gupta says that she isn’t concerned about losing weight. Instead, she focuses on being at a healthy weight for her body. Gupta wants everyone else to have this same mindset. “Being healthy is not about being thin,” she told Gulf News. “I remember seeing my young cousins in Dubai and them fretting about being a size four. But I told them, you can be any size but focus on being healthy and fit. I don’t want to have a daughter tomorrow who’s concerned that she isn’t thin. So, our focus should be on being healthy and fit. Lots of designers have banned size zero models and that’s wonderful. American model Ashley Graham has such a beautiful face and body. You look at her and you know that she works out too and remember just because you are smaller in dress size doesn’t mean you are healthier than me.”

5. She Eats Healthy

Gupta broke down her diet to Gulf News, where she revealed that she eats pretty healthy. Gupta says that she cuts out certain ingredients to help her eat better. “I come from a family of vegetarians. We are vegetarians not for religious purposes though. Although I am a Punjabi, I have lots of vegetables with collagen in them. I am gluten and dairy-intolerant, so I avoid it completely. When I eat gluten, my stomach hurts and I get acidic. Plus, I don’t believe in having milk products because I don’t think our body needs it. I also have carbs until 6pm. For dinner, I just have dal [lentils] or soups.”
