Celebrity trainer Vinod Channa, who guided Anant and Nita Ambani, discusses effects of weight fluctuations on health

Repeated cycles of weight gain and loss, often experienced when lifestyle routines change from week to week, can have remarkable effects on the body, says celebrity fitness trainer Vinod Channa, who guided Anant Ambani and Nita Ambani in their weight loss journey. In a Nov. 21 Instagram post, he discussed the impact of these fluctuations on metabolism, muscles, and overall health.

How the body reacts

Channa explained: “What actually happens in the body? The human body starts using stored fat for energy. That’s why people start looking more muscular. First, they gradually increase their weight training and follow a high-intensity workload. They lift heavier weights and reduce their cardio. Cardio only burns calories while you’re doing it, but heavy training creates adequate stimulation and burns calories effectively.”

Balance is important

He touched upon the importance of balancing exercise and nutrition. “They increase strength training wherever it is needed. This produces a good response from the body and the fat begins to decrease faster. However, the body cannot respond the same way forever. If it does not respond well, they adjust the exercise pattern by either increasing or decreasing it. They balance.”

Channa added that diet plays a critical role in supporting this process. “This whole system works by balancing the body’s responses, increasing or decreasing food intake. This is science. They use this science and to date there have been no side effects.”
