...says Abhishek Bachchan. He doesn't believe in skipping meals and likes to stay active all the time
My fitness regime
I don't necessarily hit the gym everyday. I believe in being active. I do circuit training - a mix of cardio, weight lifting and Plyometrics (a type of exercise designed to produce fast, powerful movements, and improve the function of the nervous system, generally for the purpose of improving performance in sports, defines Wikipedia.) and functional training. I use my own core while training. I keep active, keep it sporty - I love playing basketball and skiing.
My diet
I am on a 'see-food' diet. I see food and eat. (laughs) I think everyone is too concerned about losing weight and so they stop eating. That is a very wrong thing to do. I don't like the trend of losing weight, it is unhealthy and wrong. Any dietician you go to will tell you that one needs five meals a day. You just have to remember that you need to burn more calories than you eat. You should aim to be fit. For your heart to remain healthy it is essential to have some fat. Anything below five per cent body fat is dangerous.
My problem areas
I find bulking up to do the toughest. John Abraham had told me that there are three things on which working out depends - one third is your training programme, one third is your diet, one third is the amount of rest you get. You have to get it all right.
My strengths
The strongest muscle that we have is the brain - it has amazing capacity. While exercising when you are tired and giving up - you first give up in your head. It is all in the mind. And, yes, I enjoy it - the power of the brain.
