In the India Times Masaba opens up about her own struggles with PCOS, “Not only is the designer, 30, vocal about her struggles with PCOS, an endocrine condition which affects 1 in 8 women across in India, she has also often talked about the diet and fitness regime she follows to manage PCOS and hormonal flare-ups.” “She told how her morning workout and food has helped her get off medication for PCOS and focus better in life.”
2. Morning Workout
For Masaba, her morning workouts are precious. The India Times reports, “According to Masaba, her 7 to 9 am walk, workout or yoga is a non-negotiable thing for her, which no amount of celebration from the night before, no amount of stress and no phone calls can distract her from.” Piedmont states, “Exercise has also been shown to boost metabolism. While no study definitively proves that exercising in the morning increases your metabolism more than other times of the day, it does help to ensure you squeeze it in.”
3. Keep Moving
Masaba’s advice, be it for the gym, or for life is: “Keep moving!” In an Instagram post she says, “Movement to start the day & then 5000% focus on my work. So that’s the learning - You gotta move! Slow & steady Not just on the mat or in the gym but also ..in life! You gotta keep moving & growing and getting better!” The University of Colorado reminds us, “Shifting our focus and energy to activities that make us feel good, relieve stress and allow us to create a deeper connection with our body can help us to cultivate a more positive relationship with movement. It’s also important to remember that all forms of movement count toward your physical activity. Going for walks, practicing yoga, bird watching and other low-impact activities share many of the same benefits as intense workouts.”
4. Yoga
The Masaba Masaba star, reveals on Instagram that she absolutely loves yoga. She says, “The Bakasana ( Crow or Crane Pose ) for me is a lesson in confidence & overcoming fear. Trusting your own strength, your core & arms and that you will not fall flat on your face.

It helps develop breath and strength of mind and body.” It might be time to get that yoga mat back out.
