Shamita Shetty in Two-Piece Workout Gear Says "Set Goals"

Shamita Shetty is pumping iron in her workout gear. In a new social media post the Indian actress and interior designer shows off her amazing body in a two-piece exercise set during an at-home sweat session. “Set goals . Stay quiet about em. Smash the s**t out of em. Clap for your damn self . Repeat 💪,” she captioned the Instagram Reel. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. History of Dieting

Shamita used to go on drastic, unhealthy diets to lose weight. “My fitness journey started from Mohabbatein. At that time, when I left college, I remember I used to go on these weird diets. Back then, I just wanted to lose weight but had no idea about the correct way of dieting or healthy eating. It took me time to understand what works for my body… You don’t just look good because of workouts, you also feel much better,” she told Indian Express.

“I start my day with two glasses of warm water because I feel it really gets the organs started for the day ahead. It helps cleanse. Then I have a fruit, and my black tea or coffee,” she told Indian Express.

3. Gluten-Free Diet

Shamita eats gluten-free food as she suffers from irritable bowel syndrome and colitis (inflammation of the large intestine). Her diet “has definitely helped my medical issue,” she says. “I was in constant pain. After trying this, I have realised it works for my intestines because they say wheat is difficult to digest for the body.”

4. Here Is What She Eats in a Day

Shamita detailed her diet to Bollywood Hungama. “My breakfast is mostly gluten-free bread and maybe a boiled egg—that's my standard," said. "As soon as I wake up in the morning, I have two warm glasses of water, post which I have my three walnuts, six almonds, fig and my tea – that's like the first thing I have. Post which, I have my breakfast and sometimes I even have Poha maybe from red rice." Her lunch “is basically gluten-free roti, quinoa, or I will have brown or red rice either with some protein like fish, chicken, egg, or vegetables with a little bit moong or masoor dal," she continued. "Sometimes, I also have gluten-free pasta, rice noodles with vegetables. Whatever food I eat, I try and keep it gluten-free. I don't eat wheat, rice is something that I eat. Whether it is noodles, I would prefer noodles made from rice."

5. Reinventing Her Workouts

Shamita stresses the importance of designing a workout plan around your body. “Everyone has a different body type. It’s not necessary that what works for me would work for you, too. As I got older, I started realising that whatever I was doing before was not working for my body any more. I had to reinvent my workout. I also got bored of the same type of workout, and the body also stops reacting. It is when you shock the body and introduce a new kind of workout, or introduce a new type of diet, you see a change in your body,” she added.

Shamita Shetty is celebrating her return to the gym after endometriosis surgery. Shetty, 45, shared a reel of herself wearing blue leggings and a white tank top, doing gentle body resistance training exercises. “Took me a while to get back into the gym post surgery cause honestly was not allowed too but boy am I glad I’m finally training again! For me weight training has never been a chore… it’s a passion in the gym. My happy place ❤️ Fighting the laziness everyday now cause the body just got used to less strenuous physical activity but I’m sure muscle memory will make me feel like myself again ❤️ Gratitude always ❤️,” she captioned the post. Here’s what Shetty’s diet, fitness, and wellness routine looks like.

1. Fitness Fanatic

Fitness is an important part of Shetty’s life. “I feel better mentally, physically, and emotionally and this balance makes it important,” she told Women Fitness. “I know how I feel when I don’t work out for a few days, physically, it’s not a great feeling. I feel lethargic, my energy levels are low, and emotionally I don’t feel great either. Endorphins and serotonin are important for the system. There are lots of dos and don’ts. Over the years I’ve learned what works for me. It won’t necessarily work for another person because we’re all made differently physically as well as mentally.”

2. Fitness Advice

Shetty has good advice for anyone starting on their fitness journey. “Initially, when you are just about getting into the routine and when you're new to working out, it is a little difficult in the beginning to continue with that routine,” she told ABPLive. “But, you have to kind of stick to it at least for two weeks, however difficult it is. Because once that routine sets in, trust me, you're gonna miss your workout when you don't go to the gym. You just have to be patient with it. Results don't come quickly, it takes time.”

3. Weighing Her Food

Shetty is weighing her food for the first time to get to grips with portion control. “I have new trainers on board and they are keeping a closer watch on my daily calorie intake and how much protein, carbs, and fats I’m putting into my body,” she told Women Fitness. “I have always followed a gluten and dairy-free diet. Having said that, I know a lot of people do not. I’ve kind of said this so many times that although I follow a gluten and lactose-free diet, I do introduce them into my system at least once a week or once in ten days. This makes my body not completely intolerant to these two things.”

4. Hair Experiments

Shetty likes to have fun with her beauty routine. “I'm somebody who really likes to experiment with colors in my hair. Currently, I am going all red and pink in my hair,” she told ABPLive. “When I have that little time and when I'm not shooting or working on a project, then I like to experiment with color in my hair.”

5. Pizza Cheat Meal

Shetty’s all-time favorite cheat meal is thin crust pizza. “If it’s gluten-free then great otherwise, it’s the pizza. Once a week I cheat on my meals and I do it with whole wheat,” she told Women Fitness. “I like my pizza to have a thin crust. I don’t like the thick-crust ones. Another cheat meal I can think of is something in dark chocolate, like a dark chocolate pastry. The pastry, however, I keep gluten-free. These are my favorite cheat meals and I am allowed to cheat once a week.”

2. She Jet Skis

Shweta enjoys jet skiing, a great workout on the water. “One of the best experiences I had- The Jet Ski Safari!” she captioned a photo of herself on a jet skiing trip. “We headed North for a good 20 km (60-70 ki speed mein) weaving our way up past islands, beaches, sandbars and through mangroves where we then stoped at a tropical bar on South Stradbroke Island for 🍻 before turning back to ride the 20 km home. Can’t wait to do it again!” According to Health Fitness Revolution, the average 150-pound rider will burn a surprising 238 calories during a half-hour ride. The sport is also great for cardiovascular endurance.

3. She Changed Her Approach to Fitness

According to Pandey, Shweta majorly changed her approach to fitness to get into her best shape ever. “Tag that person who travels a lot & give excuses to not workout because of unavailability of gym. But if there is a will there is a way! Make your outdoors whether garden, beach, roof, balcony or your room your playground,” he captioned this workout video. “@battatawada changed her perspective on fitness and no access to gym doesn’t stop her to not workout. I’m very happy & proud how she has changed in these last 2 years from the girl who didn’t care about fitness and now need to workout wherever she is!”

4. She Boxes

Shweta also boxes her way to a hot body. "This kind of boxing has many health benefits, because it constantly requires you to think, change your position, and change your posture," physical therapist Linda Arslanian, director of rehabilitation services at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women's hospital tells 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.”

5. She Hikes

In some of Shweta’s most recent photos she hikes in the snow. Some of the physical benefits include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems. It also offers many mental health benefits, according to a Stanford University study.

So yes, I have been a fitness freak ever since.”

3. She Dances

Starring in the film, Jayeshbhai Jordaar meant that Pandey had to do a lot of dancing. She said in an interview that this helped her get in shape. “For this particular weight loss, I got on a meal plan and luckily I was doing a film which required an immense amount of dance rehearsals that added to my weight loss. So, there is nothing specific that I did to shed my weight but I feel the meal plan worked really well. I was dancing for around four hours daily and that’s a lot of cardio which helped me a lot.”

Pandey shared some of her wellness secrets in an interview with Women Fitness. When it comes to working out, Pandey tries to do so as often as she can. “I try working out every day,” she says. “But when I miss out I still try to go for a walk or do 10-minute of surya namaskar.

5. Yoga

Shilpa also does yoga. “Asanas like Setu Bandhasana strengthen the Vishuddhi chakra (Throat chakra) that helps one voice their opinions & thoughts, and gives clarity of communication; The Ardha Halasana and Navasana help strengthen the Manipuraka chakra (or Solar Plexus chakra), which determines one’s self-confidence and the ability to take action,” she captioned the post. “Eat clean, lead a healthy lifestyle, and make yoga-meditation an integral part of your daily routine. Your mind and body will thank you.”
