Tera Yaar Hoon Main actress Shweta Gulati: Positivity is the most important aspect of fitness
Tera Yaar Hoon Main actress Shweta Gulati talks about her fitness routine and how she maintains a healthy balance.
What does fitness mean to you?
Fitness means having a healthy mind and body. I feel that a person with a healthy mind is the fittest; body always follows if one has a good mind.
What is your fitness mantra?
Eat little, eat right and work out. If you don’t get time to work out, then really watch what you eat.
How do you keep a healthy balance between your mind and body?
I am a firm believer that until and unless you control your mind, then no matter what you do, the body can never be fit. So the first thing is to condition your mind, even during workouts, as it all starts with the mind itself. If you think you can lift, you really can, if you think you can run, you will be able to run. Rather than giving up by just looking at the weights and thinking ‘I won’t be able to lift this’ or ‘I don’t like this workout’, just do it. Any kind of negativity always hampers, so staying positive is the most important.
Considering your demanding and hectic routine, how do you manage to stay fit and maintain a healthy lifestyle?
It’s been five months since I haven’t gone to the gym, I haven’t worked out at all. Initially, it was because of the lockdown and then because my hectic shoot schedule for Tera Yaar Hoon Main. Hence, I try to at least eat right to stay fit. I live in calorie deficit, which means if I am supposed to consume about 1,400 calories a day, I will consume only 900-1,000, so that I don’t gain weight since I am not able to burn those calories effectively. That’s how I maintain.
