While no one in the world can offer you a magic weight loss pill to shed those extra pounds and also get ripped, 35-year-old Master Trainer, Rehabilitations Expert, Celebrity Trainer, Team Physique Global Athlete, Faculty For ACE & ACSM Aakash N Mishras amazing body transformation can offer you an insight into what fitness experts do to lose weight and whip themselves in shape. Mishra tells us, being in the fitness industry, it is a given that I have to be in good shape to inspire my clients to work harder towards their fat loss goals."

"And, to get in this said good shape as per my body type, I had to shed 11 kg and get trimmed from 89 kg to 78 kg. Notably, I also wanted to do this in a short time frame. So, I made the below step-by-step weight loss plan and stuck to it to arrive at my goal," he adds.

1. I got my blood test done in regard with any vitamin deficiencies, and found out that my body has a tendency of storing high fats due to a particular vitamin deficiency. And I have to take care of it to avoid any unwarranted weight gain.

2. A lot of people dont realise this, but changing your body is very difficult and it needs a strong mindset and will power to sustain a strict diet or routine. For me, this strict diet was the calorie deficit diet.

3. Fitness is also very purpose driven. My purpose was to get back in the great shape I once used to be in. I started seeing old (and really fit) pictures of myself to remind myself daily that I can do this! You need this kind of focus in the first month of your transformation because after that your body will start listening to your mind. On that note, let me also tell you why many people are not able to lose weightthey dont prepare for the next day. If you want to change, you need to make things easy for yourself. Things like planning the next day in advanceit means having your schedule ready along with your periodised workout program, meal timings and actual meal requirements.

I have a rigid endomorph physique with dense muscle structure, wide hip and shoulder bones, average height, insulin resistance and a body type which holds more carbs (glycogen) and water. So, for my body type, I started weight training 5 days a week. It was a very intense workout plan with mostly two-day split(s) - shoulder and legs, chest and lats and arms - with lots of Supersets, Tri-Sets and Giant-Sets, which I dont recommend to anyone. You workout routine should be customised for your body and goals.

I used to have 3 to 4 meals including snacks in line with the calorie deficit diet I had created. These meals would comprise:

20 egg whites

400 gm of cooked white rice

200 gm beans

250 gm of veggies

An apple + papaya + pomegranates

2 scoops of whey protein

10 almonds and walnuts (as snacks)

1 or 2 tablespoon Oil before going to bed (Olive oil or Coconut oil)

Coffee (with or without milk)

Id also observe an intermittent fast once a week."

QUICK READ: What is intermittent fasting?

1. "Educate yourself! Sleep, vitamin deficiency, gut health, hormones, food allergies, smart weight training routines and many such aspects are some of the key elements for weight loss (fat loss) which you cannot ignore.

2. Hire a qualified fitness professional who knows how to use the above elements to your advantage rather than going with someone who is forcing you to buy some supplements which can be harmful to your body."
