Bored of doing normal squat jumps at the gym? Try Alia Bhatt's intense version with resistance twist: Watch

Celebrity trainer Karan Sawhney shared a video of Alia Bhatt's training session. It shows the duo enhancing a normal squat jump routine. Here's how they did it.

To maintain her current fitness levels and a toned physique, Alia Bhatt religiously works out. The proof is often seen in the videos she posts on social media with her trainer and friends. From yoga and Pilates to strength training and functional cardio, her ideal routine is a mix of all forms of exercise.

On July 18, the actor's trainer, Karan Sawhney, who also works with stars like Kriti Sanon, posted a clip of her working hard at the gym. “Power Day With @aliaabhatt,” he captioned the post. Let's check out Alia's workout in the video:

Forget boring squat jumps!

Squat jumps are a dynamic movement that requires you to use power and strength to launch yourself out of the bottom position of a squat and jump up into the air. While squats are the king of all exercises, squat jumps add a level of difficulty to this common form of workout. However, Alia Bhatt took it to the next level by adding resistance, but not with your usual weights.

So, if you are bored with doing normal squats or jump squats at the gym for your warm-ups or cardio, you can try Alia Bhatt's version during your next workout:

Alia Bhatt's workout

In the video, Alia's trainer, Karan Sawhney, takes two bumper plates used for barbell weightlifting and secures two resistance bands inside them. Then he slides the right resistance band over Alia's head and secures it on her left shoulder, then does the same with the left resistance band. This creates a level of resistance and difficulty to normal squat jumps.

Once the setup was complete, the trainer placed the weight at some distance from Alia's feet, and the actor, standing shoulder-width apart, performed the routine.
