Salman Khan Workout Routine
Salman Khan has very intense workouts and cardio. He sometimes have to workout at 2 am or so, due to his busy schedule. He never misses it. His body also shows his dedication and discipline, which are the two pillars of his success. He works out for atleast 3 hours daily. Due to his best body in Bollywood, he has been seen in opening ceremonies of the gyms or any kind of body-building advertisement. He recently inaugurated NITRO Pure Fitness in Thane, Mumbai.
He is a fitness freak who focusses on his biceps, triceps and abs in gym. People may think that this is the steroids’ effect but this is not the case. Salman Khan does unbelievable stuff like 1000 push-ups a day or 2000 sit ups a day, says his fitness trainer, who has trained Salman for over 6 weeks.
He is a very tough guy and to keep his abs in shape, he does 500 crunches, chin-ups and pull-ups. Really, he is not a normal guy. I mean, his stamina and endurance have reached next level. So, it is not recommended to imitate him blindly. If you are a beginner and want to have a body like him, do these exercises but starting from a small figure (For example, 10 push-ups a day).
This is called `old body-building style`. He also has a great love for cycling. His main cardio-vascular exercise is cycling. He cycles for atleast 10 km a day.
Salman Khan has now become a great instructor also in Bollywood. Currently, he is training Katrina Kaif for “Dhoom 3″ movie, to whom he has suggested to do cycling and swimming. He also has transformed Arjun Kapoor (from 140 kg to 72 kg; Arjun is the son of Boney Kapoor and a debut actor in “Ishaqzaade”) from fat to fab. There are not only two but other instances as well, where Salman proved himself as a good trainer.
