Shivoham, who is currently training with senior Bachchan, added that there are times when he is busy and cannot work out or wants to exercise later in the evening. “But health-wise, we know it is not the ideal time to train for anybody. The later you train, the more your body is (slightly) more energised and sleep patterns go for a toss. So, sometimes, we also have to tell him it is not an ideal time to train. So then, he makes it a point to remove time (from his schedule). He knows it is super crucial for him to be active. If he can schedule things according to his workout, I am pretty sure that other people can also. If you want to prioritise it, you can always do.”

Emphasising the age-old idiom, ‘where there is a will, there is a way’, Vrinda, who conducts breathwork sessions with the 81-year-old, said, “We do Pranayamas, starting with the basic breathwork exercise and then move on to yoga stretches.”

Further, Vrinda shared that she has learned “discipline, and punctuality” from the superstar. “Mindset — I think he is the father of it. I still remember how we would start training at 6 am. He was never late. If there was a delay, he would tell me: ‘I am running so many minutes late’. So, I have learned the value of time, respecting time from him,” Vrinda confessed.

Tips to make workouts a regular part of your routine

*Have a workout schedule that aligns with your daily routine. “Consistency is key, so choose a time that you can commit to regularly. Having a set routine makes it easier to incorporate exercise into your lifestyle, reducing the chances of skipping workouts,” said fitness trainer Garima Goyal.

*Identify physical activities you genuinely enjoy. “Whether it’s cycling, yoga, swimming, or team sports, doing things you like turns exercise into a pleasurable experience. Enjoyment increases the likelihood of you sticking to your routine,” shared Goyal.
