I consume simple food in the afternoon. I am vegetarian so I eat normal veg food. What I intend to say is that in order to achieve something you dont need to make drastic changes. Small changes lead to bigger results in life. People keep asking me this and that is why I have launched my new app where I share my fitness goals. I want to let people know how they can do it too.
One can even do a handstand with a wall support. So if someone says that working out in the rain is not possible then it is just an excuse.
I always believe that the more you work and the less you eat is the best health tip that I can give. I eat very simple food, like this morning for breakfast I had an apple or some other fruit, for lunch I eat dal, sabzi made in desi ghee with 3 rotis, I also add some salad to it and some buttermilk or curd. After this i directly have dinner. I usually dont have anything in between. For dinner I eat khichdi or daliya or sometimes I have a glass of milk and sleep. As per our weather, water ghee and milk is supposed to be very good. Happiness is the key to having the best possible diet.
Then in professional bouts I played under the 84 kgs category and today my weight is 82kgs. So over the period working out, and following a certain routine and changing your workout for eg one day I do Surya Namaskar and then I do cardio. I do 1000 sit ups everyday in around 8 to 10 minutes, I do 1000 crunches and so on.
I can tell you all at least 10 to 15 various workouts that one can do from your office on your chair. I do a blend of modern workouts and age old work outs and that keeps me very healthy and energetic. I dont get tired, in fact my body age is 14 years.
If there is a good project then I will definitely take it up, if I feel I can do justice to the projects and viewers enjoy seeing me in it. So yes I am open for acting offers.
My future plan is to do things that I like the most. It can be wrestling or acting or anything for that matter. I also have plans of coming up with a nice talk show in the future and host it on various platforms.
I am planning to make a big announcement very soon. I also would like to inspire the youth and that is why I have launched my own app called Sangram Singh Official App so that I can interact with the youth at a personal level.
