5 Health Tips By Vaani Kapoor For The Fitness-Loving Bride

'Diet and exercise go hand in hand when it comes to getting fit. Remember to cut down on the extra carbs.' The actor weighs in on how to get your best body for a wedding.

TWEAK YOUR DIET

If you spend hours in the gym and then come home and devour a pizza, your efforts will come to naught. Diet and exercise go hand in hand when it comes to getting fit. Cut down on the extra carbs— your body will thank you for being so diligent. Eat in moderation, but remember, starving yourself is a strict no-no. And don’t forget to allow yourself the occasional cheat day—everyone needs a bit of indulgence now and then.

SNACK SENSIBLY

Feeling hungry in between meals? Opt for chia seeds, or goji or açaí berries. A chicken and vegetable soup is also a good option—it is filling and nourishing.

BREAKFAST LIKE A QUEEN

Start your day with a big meal and end it with something light. For breakfast, try buckwheat or almond flour waffles with fresh, unsweetened berry compote or a dip. A hearty breakfast shifts your metabolism into high gear, helping you burn calories.

WORK OUT SMART

Everyone has a different metabolism and body type. First, understand your body and what it needs, and then identify the right trainer. Devise a schedule that is holistic and looks at your overall development—don’t overdo the weight training; balance it out with cardio and flexibility exercises.

SWITCH IT UP

If you get bored really fast with workouts, like I do, mix it up. Walk on the treadmill for around 45 minutes, and follow that up with 20 minutes of weights or Pilates. Consider a different plan the next day. Wear a funky outfit, create a workout playlist. If you want to, go easy on yourself, but try not to miss your workout and break the rhythm.
