Fitness instructor Leena Mogre talks about her experience with the 'Nach Baliye' couples.
After having worked with the best names in Bollywood, Leena Mogre has now been assigned to give nutritional and fitness advice to the stressed out couples of the reality show 'Nach Baliye 2' (Star One).
So does she find any difference in fitness traits between film stars and television stars? "All are the same. However Bollywood stars are a bit more particular about their fitness." She further adds, "The guys in 'Nach Baliye' do take care of their fitness but the girls are misinformed. Most of these girls are thin and they don't have their daily breakfast. So I had to educate these girls and now they are slowly picking up." Gauri and Hiten , Tanaaz and Bakhtyaar, and Narayani Shastri and Gaurav Chopraa are the couples who are best fit in this lot according to Leena, who will be doing regular follow ups with each couple to monitor the improvements.
Prior to their dance practice, the couples have been advised to do warm ups for 10 minutes followed by stretches. After their practice, they have again been advised to cool down and repeat stretches. Protein shakes and amino acids have also been recommended by Leena who thinks it is essential for these stars with erratic working hours. A strict no-no are food items like batata wada and pav bhaji.
"If they don't take care of their nutrition and don't eat well, then their energy levels also drop. This is the main reason why the judges say that their energy levels are low on stage. Pre- practice and post practice meals are a necessity so that they wake up fresh the next day" states Leena. This fitness instructor says, "All the couples were very enthusiastic when I went to meet them personally. They were all hungry for more knowledge. I sat with each couple for almost an hour and they were not ready to leave me."
