While his lunch and dinner vary, he sometimes treats himself to a bit of chocolate at night as his last meal. 3. He believes in skill over aesthetics When it comes to fitness, Allu is all about sustainability and balance.
He prefers callisthenics and skill training over just heavy lifting and adds, "It is very important to have a healthy life rather than having a good body." This mindset reflects his focus on long-term wellness rather than just physical appearance.

Here are some of the key takeaways: 4. Fitness starts in the kitchen, not just the gym Allu swears by the golden rule: "Bodybuilding is 70% food, 20% exercise, and 10% rest." This means your diet plays the biggest role in how your body looks and feels.
He emphasises that you can lift weights all day, but if your food isn't clean, you won't see results. 5. Moderation is key to healthy living When it comes to diet, Allu believes in balance.
He says it's okay to eat your favourite foods, even sweets, but in moderation. "I don't completely avoid sugar, but I control the portions," he explains. Similarly, he eats chicken almost daily but avoids deep-fried or unhealthy versions.
According to him, it's not about strict restrictions but more about being mindful and knowing your limits. 6. Fitness is for everyone He shares, "People often say, 'You're a hero, of course you'll work out.
' But I tell them, being healthy isn't about being a celebrity, it's about taking care of yourself." He encourages fans to start small, stay consistent, and treat fitness as a lifestyle, not a short-term goal.
