According to the Mayo Clinic, “Strength training can help you tone your muscles and improve your appearance. With a regular strength training program, you can reduce your body fat, increase bone strength, increase your lean muscle mass and burn calories more efficiently.”

2. She Dances

One of the ways Malhotra likes to stay in shape is by dancing. She has posted several dance videos on Instagram and on TikTok, whether it’s by herself or with friends. Dancing isn’t just a fun thing to do, it’s a great way to stay in shape, and reduce stress. According to a study in PLOS One, “Dancing is a recreational activity which is pursued dominantly to improve one’s mood and reflects the stress-reducing capability of the activity.”

3. She’s Consistent

In a 2018 Instagram live, Malhotra shared some of her wellness secrets with her followers. One of the things she emphasized was the importance of consistency. “Nothing can happen overnight,” she said. “Only with regular and consistent training, can your body change.”

In the same Instagram live, Malhotra opened up about her diet. She shared some of her favorite foods, and the approach she takes to eating. Malhotra says that while she tries to eat healthy, she does believe in eating a balanced diet. “To lead a healthy lifestyle, you need to have a healthy balanced diet, exercise and rest. I am a fan of desi food and prefer dal chawal with ghee, dahi chawal, and khichdi.”

5. She Doesn’t Pressure Herself

In an interview with PTI, Malhotra opened up about her struggles with anxiety in the beginning of her career. “Earlier, I was too harsh on myself as an actor. I would get mad at myself for making mistakes, which was definitely not helping me with anything. I was harsh on myself because maybe I was still trying to learn about so many things, about the industry, the job. Even a small mistake used to tick me off. I was trying to be perfect in everything.” Today, Malhotra says that she doesn’t put as much pressure on herself as she used to, and is easier on herself.

She says that she was inspired to lose weight when she first went to the gym at 18. “When I got on the treadmill, I couldn’t run for more than 30 seconds! I was huffing and puffing!

2. She Doesn’t Stress About Food

When it comes to her diet, Sinha tells the Times of India that she doesn’t like to stress over it. She says that she eats what she wants to eat. “Like, if you want to make an omelette, make an omelette, but don’t be like, ‘Oh God, the egg has to be the perfect shape and this specific colour! Don’t obsess over these things! If you want to make an omelette, just go make it!”

3. She Doesn’t Let Trolls Get To Her

Sinha unfortunately has been subjected to harsh trolling throughout her career. Most of the comments were about her weight and body. Sinha says to the Times of India that she is learning to ignore those comments. “Eventually, I told myself that I wouldn’t let them bring me down because they had no idea what I had been through, how hard I had worked to get here. And, in the end, it really didn’t matter what they thought. They were not the ones in a big-ticket Bollywood film, I was.”

4. She Spends Time Outside

Sinha is a big fan of spending time outside. She posts several videos and photos on Instagram of herself enjoying the great outdoors.

1. She Does Squats

Sanya strength trains, with a focus on her glutes. Here’s how to do a key exercise, a Dumbbell Squat:

1. Stand up straight while holding a dumbbell in each hand (palms facing the side of your legs).
2. Position your legs using a shoulder-width medium stance with the toes slightly pointed out. Keep your head up at all times (looking down will throw you off balance), and also maintain a straight back. This will be your starting position.
3. Begin to slowly lower your torso by bending the knees and sitting back with the weight in your heels so that you maintain a straight posture with the head up. Continue down until your thighs are parallel to the floor. If you performed the exercise correctly, the front of the knees should make an imaginary perpendicular straight line with the toes. If your knees are past your toes, you’re placing undue stress on the knee; concentrate on sitting back and keeping the weight in your heels.
4. Begin to raise your torso as you exhale by pushing the floor mainly with the heel of your foot as you straighten the legs again and go back to the starting position.
5. Repeat for 10 repetitions.

2. She Lifts Weights

Want to lift weights like Sanya? Here are a few guidelines, based on your current fitness level:

• If you’re not familiar with weights, start slow, and use much lighter weights than you think you’ll need.
• If you’re used to lifting weights, start slow, and use much lighter weights than you think you’ll need.
• If you are the reigning Mr. Olympia and your biceps are larger than your head, start slow, and use much lighter weights than you think you’ll need.

3. She Dances

Sanya dances, and a dance class is great for your heart. “Zumba fitness could be considered an effective type of physical activity able to improve aerobic capacity,” says one study of the popular dance class. “Zumba provided significant positive changes in maximal aerobic fitness (+3.6%), self-perception of physical strength (+16.3%) and muscular development (+18.6%), greater autonomy (+8.0%), and purpose in life (+4.4%),” reports another study.

4. She Works Her Core

Sanya has a strong core, due to all her strength training. And she doesn’t need to do crunches to get it. Because the abdominals are part of a complex network of muscles that stabilize the midtorso against any and all forces that might compromise the spine (which, as we know, is bad), any time we do an exercise that requires the body to self-stabilize, the abs are brought into play. And since Sanya’s workouts focuses on the big muscle groups of the body, she’s burning the maximum number of calories and building the maximum amount of muscle.

5. This is Her Approach to Wellness

“To lead a healthy lifestyle, you need to have a healthy balanced diet, exercise and rest. I am a fan of desi food and prefer dal chawal with ghee, dahi chawal, and khichdi. So, my fitness mantra is to train hard, eat clean and sleep at least eight hours a day. Nothing can happen overnight. Only with regular and consistent training, can your body change.”

Now she avoids putting that pressure on herself.

6. Try a Vegetarian Diet

“I wanted to become a vegetarian for a very long time. This year, it all happened very organically. Also, because of the second lockdown amid the pandemic,” Malhotra told the Hindustan Times. "Since I was alone in Mumbai, it gave me a lot of time to experiment in the kitchen and make good vegetarian and vegan stuff for myself to eat. During all that, I found a lot of substitutes for meat and eggs and dairy that I was used to eating. In fact, now, I’m actually enjoying eating all the substitutes,” she added. “I can see a lot of difference (after the decision). I have a lot of energy during the day, and just feel lighter, as opposed to the times when I used to eat non-vegetarian food.”
