How to lose weight in 6 months like this guy who lost 32 kgs by following an easy cardio routine – GQ India – What a man’s got to do

When it comes to the best weight loss plans a cardio routine comprising running, cycling and ground exercises is probably the most underrated fitness regime. Cardio exercises do not just aid fat loss but also strengthen your immune system and boost your mood. 18-year-old Raj Krishnan H tells us that following a dedicated cardio routine and a clean diet plan helped him trim from 115 kgs to 83 kgs in just six months and also helped inculcate better eating habits.

Growing up, my body was always inclined towards favouring the heavier side of the weighing scale. In fact, at one point, I couldnt even find clothes in my size (the correct size) and preference. It started making me feel very miserable about myself and also my life. I stopped hanging out with my friends as Id be too busy wallowing over this all the time," he says. "But, after I completed my high school graduation, I was done with this feeling and decided to turn over a new leaf, starting by losing weight and eating healthier, he adds before revealing his weight loss plan.

I started off slow by changing my lifestyle. I enrolled myself in a gym and started waking up earlier as well. I also changed my eating habits by substituting all the junk food in my life with the below clean diet plan.

Breakfast: A cup of green tea and a bowl of oats with some almonds and dates

Lunch: A combination of broccoli and leafy vegetables along with 100 gms of grilled chicken

Dinner: Salads/soups, etc

Through the day, Id also munch on an apple along with egg whites. I also curbed all forms of sugar from my diet.

Initially, I focused only on a cardio routine to decrease my body's fat percentage. A combination of the below cardio routine and the above diet plan helped me lose 32 kgs in 5-6 months. And right now, I am gearing up to commence a new weight training routine to switch things up and build abs."

I went to the gym almost everyday of the week except on Sundays. My cardio routine comprised: 20 minutes of running, 20 minutes of cycling and 25 minutes of step ups along with ground exercises such as push-ups, crunches, free squats and sit ups, etc. I used to do 100 push-ups, 160 sit ups and 100 crunches everyday after my cardio.
