Let's get set to follow the fitness secrets of this handsome hunk. So, let us begin.
Varun was an athlete during his school days, and that required him to work hard to increase his stamina. He did so by swimming all through his school years, literally. He swims even now if he has time on hand. In fact, he believes that indulging in sports activities is the best bet for a healthy body and mind. In one of his interviews with Filmfare, the actor once said:
“I still swim regularly, even if it’s for 15 minutes. I also play cricket and squash to improve my agility. I have come to realise that filling your day with various activities keeps your weight in place. I rely on the Nike Fuel Band that tracks how much, how often, and how intensely you move. If you need abs, workouts are necessary because any sport cuts down the fat. Sports are great for the mind too and keep it active.”
The first rule for anyone who is set to start working out is, a 10-15 minutes warm-up routine. This includes jogging, jumping, running, or stretching exercises of chest and shoulder. If you do not do so, you are likely to injure yourself and upset your plans of sporting a fit body.
‘I do a mix and match of many exercises. But before anything I do, I go for a warm up as it of prime importance.”
In fact, he had injured his hip bone during an action sequence while shooting for Main Tera Hero, and he blames ‘not warming up’ before the shot for that incident.

Varun gets his training from the celebrity trainer, Prashant Sawant, who also trains Shah Rukh Khan and Ajay Devgn. He trains for five days a week for 90 minutes, and his trainer mixes various routines (from martial arts and weightlifting to heavy-duty cardio) to eliminate any chances of him getting bored of the routine. While weightlifting helps him tone his body and bulk up whenever the script demands it, he suggests his fans aim towards having a flexible body. The actor says in one of his interviews:
“Rather than focusing on huge and bulked up body, aim to acquire limber body. As you grow older, the natural suppleness of body begins getting down, as a result of which you become vulnerable to injuries. A lithe body not only looks influential, it is powerful too.”
He also does yoga as it is great for holistic growth. But, he skips it on the days when he is short on time.

In his interview with Filmfare, he also suggests following safety measures while exercising and some tips to soothe your body:
“Applying ice to sore muscles helps. Also, when I hit the gym, I wear a safety belt. It cushions my spine. I also enjoy a body massage. It’s a great therapy for the muscles.”
