"The workout is usually about an hour or so. It’s very short but it’s intense and extremely difficult. It’s usually five days a week of weight training depending upon his (Hrithik Roshan's) sleep schedule. If his sleep is good, then it’s five days or else four days as recovery is very important as it enhances performance," Kris Gethin said. Hrithik’s nighttime is around 9pm, added Kris, 'and not later than that'.
