Ravindra Jadeja isn’t just an all-rounder on the field but also off the cricket scene. He’s known for his extravagant lifestyle and also his fitness routine. In one of his recent interviews after winning against Australia in ICC Champions Trophy, Jadeja said, “I take care of fitness and look after my body. I’m now 36, each day is important for me in my career.” It’s enough to prove that the cricketer is an athlete in every sense of the word. Jadeja’s fitness isn’t just about lifting heavy weights or running endless miles. It’s about a smart, well-rounded approach that keeps him at peak performance. And the best part? You can apply some of his training principles to your own fitness routine. 

Train Those Arms

Lift weights and challenge yourself to bulk up those arms. Of course he needs stronger arms to keep bowling those deadly overs and even swing some shots out of the ground when needed.

Warm Up Better

Nothing better than taking a few rounds around the field to let the adrenaline running before getting into a full-blown workout routine. Remember that warm-up and cooling down is as important as the workout session.

Core & Balance

To strengthen the core, balance exercises are crucial. They test the strength of your core and also helps build a weak core. Core strength enables maximum strength to perform other exercises and therefore, make sure to include balance exercises in your routine.

Challenge Yourself

Give your cardio and workout routine a good mix challenge, whether it includes using different equipment or coming up with a variation of your own. Make sure you do it safely and know which group of muscles you're working on.

Try Pilates

It's one of the best ways to work on your flexibility. Pilates work on whole body and gives better balance, flexibility, core strength and balance. It also is a good way to start slow if you're recovering from an injury.

Run for Cardio

There's nothing better than a good run to burn those extra calories. If outdoor run is not possible, make sure you hop on to the treadmill and get running. 

Lift Weights To Train Lower Body

Squatted weights, hip thrusts, lunges, make sure to add weights to your exercises when you get to train the lower body. Adding weights means engaging more muscles which means better muscle definition.
