6 Exercises from Kangana Ranaut's Routine That Promise a Fitter Body

Want to switch up your fitness regime while you social distance? Well, you can take a cue from Bollywood's Queen aka Kangana Ranaut. The actor has been spending the lockdown in her gorgeous hometown, Manali, and is continuing to keep up with her health goals.

According to her Instagram page that is managed by her team, Kangana has lost 5kgs already! The post read- "Guys, taking cues from #Kangana to workout, stay motivated and don’t let the lethargy get to you. She has lost 5 kilos, long way to go!"

Feeling inspired? Well, that's the effect she usually has on most of us! So, we have compiled six exercises from Kangana's workout routine with her trainer Siddhartha Singh that you can try out too:

Weighted Squat with lifts

Squats are a mainstay in many bodyweight at-home routines. They are an excellent exercise to build up your quads, hamstrings, glutes and calves as well as to strengthen your core. By adding weights to your usual squats, you benefit your entire body and up your metabolism too!

To perform this, keep your feet shoulder-width apart and point your toes outwards. Pick up the dumbells and curl your arms while sitting down in the squat position. Then, raise, your arms up while rising from the position. The key is to keep your back straight (not stiff) and extend your glutes while sitting in the squats.

Modified Burpees

A HIIT favourite, a regular set of burpees increases your heart-rate and works almost every part of your body including the stubborn belly flab! Kangana's variation has also included punches. So, you jump into a plank position, then jump feet forward toward your hands and stand up. After, standing up do two sets of punches and return to plank position.

Stair hops

A quick and effective exercise to include in your daily fitness regime, stair hops are great to strengthen and tone your leg muscles. All you need is to jump over one step and walk backwards to the starting point. You can start off slow and speed up the process as you go along to avoid any stumbles.

Reverse wall walk with pushup

A DIY take on the classic inchworm exercise, this one is great for beginners since you can use the wall for support. Start by getting in the plank position with your feet against the wall. Now, bring your chest down for a push-up and as you rise, walk vertically on the wall while maintaining the plank position. This exercise improves your flexibility and strengthens the arms and shoulders.

Inverted row

This exercise is especially beneficial for those who sit in from of their computers 24 x7! It improves your posture, strengthens your arms and can also release the stress aches on your necks or shoulders.

Kangana has included the inverted row exercise in her regime with a Suspension Trainer. All you need is to hold a handle in each hand with your palms facing in and keeping your feet forward so that your body is inclined. Keep your chest pressed out so that your body is in a straight incline. Do not let your low back arch or your hips sag toward the ground. Then drive your elbows down and back to row your chest up to the handles.

Dhanurasana

The bow pose in yoga helps in improving your digestion, strengthens your back and improves flexibility. It is also said to be a great asana if you are prone to menstrual cramps.
