Actor Lara Dutta who has always been very fitness conscious says being fit is a way of life for her. Which is why she decided to come out with a fitness DVD to help women understand their bodies better.
“Fitness is such an important part of my life and I have always been inspired to help women build better bodies yet enjoy the benefits of good health simultaneously. I have been collaborating with the experts that I have worked with on these DVDs for a long time and it’s taken over a year of research and the understanding of various body types and requirements to formulate and put together the content. It’s for people to realise that fitness is not just about pounding on the treadmill, it a lifestyle change taking so many aspects into consideration.”
The pretty actor swears by the long term benefits of Yoga. “Specific asanas help restore the central nervous system and to create a sense of well-being in the body. So be it yoga, strength or core training, cardio elements, l believe in overall long term benefits.
Lara’s mantra
She maintains that fitness and holistic well being have been extremely important for her. “I have never worked out to look a specific way,” she explains.
Yoga-losophy too
“It has become more popular now as people have started seeing results on a public platform. Yoga has always been misunderstood for pertaining to meditation and spirituality. Only now have people realised that it is more holistic in nature, aiming at a healthy body and mind! In fact, I think overall yoga was taken for granted considering the origin of yoga was from India. I think it is the West that took notice and commercialised it to what it is today,” she says.
Advice to youngsters
Her advice to the younger generation of women is simple. “It is not about being a certain size or aiming at a two or six- month goal. It’s about understanding your body type, what suits you best and over all fitness that lasts .You should also aim at following a regime that you can sustain,” she ends.
