Hrithik Roshan born 10 January 1974 is an Indian actor who appears in Bollywood films.Hrithik Roshan’s upper torso is fabulous; his muscles broad and well built. His biceps have an enviable sharpness. The strength of his back muscles is admirable and his abs are super chiseled. That agile lean bod didn’t come overnight for Bollywood’s blue-eyed hero. “Commitment is Hrithik’s key to fitness,” says Satyajit Chaurasia, the fitness instructor who has been training Roshan for the last eight years.
Hrithik Roshan Diet
“My dietary restrictions are few because I work out. Yet I avoid oily and fried food. I like Chinese food and Indian food, but hate milk and cannot have any milk product, except chocolate. I am not on any special diet because my exercise routine ensures that I stay fit.
Everyday, I have a special chocolate milk shake that is full of protein and recommended by my instructor. I have a heavy breakfast because I feel that’s the most important meal of the day. My afternoon meal is mostly on the sets and an evening snack is optional.
His trainer Satyajit Chaurasia, who has been Hrithik’s trainer for 9 years, explains how Hrithik had to go into an extreme regime to get his muscles extremely toned for Vijay Chauhan’s role in Agneepath. His diet was a super protein diet with 12 egg whites, 2 loafs of brown bread, a protein shake, nuts, corn flakes with milk and fruit platter for breakfast. Two roti, green vegetables, 1 whole chicken (during the day), dal, caesar salad, fish platter for lunch.
Protein shake, egg white sandwich or fruit plate for snacks. For dinner he had 6-8 egg whites, brown bread, 1/2 chicken or fish with stir-fried vegetables Caesar salad during workout and 1 banana. Now, Hrithik can say, “That is how the cookie crumbles.”
- Hrithik trains four times every week for about 40 mins on each of those 4 days.
- Does cardio 3 days a week. Cardio includes jogging, running and skipping for 20 mins.
