Shilpa Shetty Kundra is getting a workout in wherever she is. In a new social media post the Indian actress shows off her balancing skills. “A great Leg workout in style. Took me a couple of tries to get the whole drill, but it’s challenging and really works the quads and glutes,” she captioned the “Monday Motivation” Instagram Reel. How does the actress, 48, approach health and wellness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Shilpa told Entrepreneur that she starts her day by drinking two glasses of warm water with one tablespoon of ghee, half a teaspoon of turmeric, saunth (dry ginger), and a quarter spoon of pepper. She claims that it helps with her metabolism.
For breakfast she has three eggs with sourdough or avocado toast or overnight soaked oats with almond or soy milk, pomegranate, apple, and chia seeds for breakfast. Lunch is usually legumes or seafood, rice, vegetables and half a beetroot. She likes to add a teaspoon of ghee to her meals. For a snack, she has a vegan protein shake. She has her dinner before 7:30, which is usually a high protein soup and vegetables or vegetable khichdi.
TO keep her diet healthy, Shilpa avoids a few things. She does drink soda or eat anything with white sugar or anything fried.
In a recent post she shared her “Recipe for washboard ABS: Planks, Planks, & More Planks.” In the caption she explained that the workout actually trains “the entire body, primarily driven by the core muscles.” She recommends doing the three exercises for 15 to 20 reps and three sets. “It strengthens the core, arms, legs, shoulders, & back muscles; and builds muscular endurance,” she added. “Can be done at home with just a mat on days you are running short of time, but want to move that body as it takes only 20mins.”

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.”
