People have often asked me 'just how did Salman Khan get so ripped?' People usually assume its steroids but thats really not the case.
Especially for his formidable physique in the movie Veer, here is what his trainers have to say:
While weights have gained for Salman the contours the camera captures so vividly, his cardiovascular routine is punishing too. When the mood overtakes Salman , he goes cycling three hours to panvel," explains Advilkar." personally, I would find that a real challenge too."
"He does unbelievable stuff like 1,000 push-ups a day or 2,000 sit-ups a day" says Manish Advilkar, who is a fitness trainer and has trained Salman for over 6 years
1000 pushups a day or 2000 situps are simply amazing, are truly tough guy material.
"Salman works out for at least two hours continuously. His workout includes one hour of cardio- concentrating on any two body parts each time- triceps, legs, back and biceps" says D'souza
He has got perfect abs and works a lot to keep them in shape. "He does five hundred crunches, pull-ups and chin-ups" adds D'Souza.
As you can see, His workout is definitely not for you if you are a begginner, his strength and stamina are beyond normal, this is what is called 'old fashioned body building' very effective and amazing for building strength.
But if you workout regularly and try to aim for high figures like 1000 pushups and 2000 situps over a period of 2-3 years, it should be easy and very doable.
Diet:
This is the more interesting factor: What kind of a diet is required to get a body like Salman's?
One thing's for certain, Salman doesn't touch junkfood ever. His food is purely natural like meats, vegetables and fruits. In an interview, Salman says the last thing he would do is feed his body unhealthy food and synthesized food

This helps us understand that his diet too is very old fashioned and helps a lot in building muscle.
So its simply this.
For workouts:
He lifts weights, does a heavy weight training regime
Does a heavy bodyweight training regime, comprising of 1000 pushups
Does a heavy cardio routine.
For Diet:
Eats Clean souces of protein: Chicken, Egg Whites and Fish
Completely avoids sugar and processed food
Salads and pulses are his sources of carbohydrates
All in all, it is an old fashioned style of working out with an emphasis on eating well.
