Priyanka Chopra, nicknamed Sunshine, Mimi, and Piggy Chops, is not just a household name in Bollywood but a renowned model, performer, actress, and philanthropist who has established her reputation as a global star with her appearance in several international projects including a US TV series “Quantico.”
Being a former Miss World, Priyanka Chopra is an outright fashionista who has become one of the famous faces endorsing numerous global fashion brands. How does she manage to keep her figure toned for the various roles, as well as the red carpet appearances? Here, we have revealed some of her health and beauty secrets.
During interviews, the 33-year-old Bollywood beauty has revealed that she is not particularly weight-conscious and does not mind eating well. As she does not have the tendency of gaining any discernible weight, which she believes is all due to her great metabolism rate, Chopra does not follow any strict diet plan. Her diet comprises plenty of fruits and green veggies, which provide her with protein and minerals.
She is fond of eating home-cooked food, and would eat anything coming her way. She believes that drinking plenty of water makes the skin glow, and so keeps herself always hydrated. However, she abstains from having oily and deep fried foods. Since Chopra is known to have a sweet tooth, she would often indulge her taste buds over the weekends, binging on cakes and chocolates.
Priyanka Chopra is not a workout freak and does not like to spend long hours in the gym. She keeps her daily workout routine simple, which helps her to stay in good shape. Priyanka does not train for more than an hour in the gym, doing the exact number of exercises needed to keep her body fit. Apart from training in the gym, she does practice Yoga poses such as Half Lord of the Fishes Pose, Warrior Pose, and Tree Pose to increase the flexibility of the body. She focuses more on strength training than weight training.
For her 2014-biopic Mary Kom (wherein she played the role of an Olympic bronze medalist boxer), Priyanka Chopra underwent a 45-day rigorous training regimen to achieve the physique and strength of a boxer. Her trainer made sure that she gets a lean and athletic body but retains a feminine look. Before hitting the gym, she used to do some warm up exercises including Jump Rope, Shadow Boxing, Duck Under and Step Over, as well as some stretching exercises.
After the warm-ups, she concentrated on some strength building workouts (each with 10 sets and 5 reps)
