You must be aware how devoted Nita Ambani is when it comes to health and fitness. She had lost 18 kilos once and all credit goes to her fitness trainer Vinod Channa, a Mumbai based personal trainer. Channa is also known to have helped Anant Ambani in his weight loss journey. Channa’s personalised weight loss routine helped Anant shed more than 100 kilos in only 18 kilos.
Sharing the secrets of successful and effective weight loss, Channa says proper diet and working on abs are the right way to lose extra kilos.
In a post on his personal website, Channa writes every individual’s nutrition plan is different as it depends on body type, metabolic rates, lifestyle adaptation, food preferences and nutritional habits.
He recommends eating at regular intervals. “Eating enough at regular intervals is much better than eating light or bloating your stomach after long gap. This keeps your metabolism at work and don’t pressurize your body’s intestinal system. As per my own experience and studies, it has been proved that eating within at least 2 hours is the best approach to follow your balance diet approach,” Channa says in his post.
After talking about balanced diet, Channa emphasizes on workout. He talks about the right time to do abs for quick result.

This is the right time to do abs workout
” The best time for doing abs is after working on large muscles like legs, back and chest. This is because you have burnt more calories in short period of time and doing abs at this point of time tend to shape your muscles as it is already involved while working on bigger muscles, so this is provide faster result than pushing afresh on other days and just focusing on abdominal with high repetition and number of hours. So next time when you hit the gym, make it a habit to work on your abs immediately after each alternate set of heavy muscle exercise,” Channa says.
He suggests focusing on 4 major muscles, rectus abdominal, internal oblique, external oblique and transverse oblique. “Perform crunches that will work on rectus abdominal, cross crunches and leg raises which will work on internal and external oblique and lastly transverse oblique which can be worked by doing plank, side plank. In this way, you work on complete abdominal muscles and which help make you stronger for other,” he has said in the post.
In a nutshell
Toning your abs requires a combination of targeted exercises, a balanced diet, and a focus on overall body fat reduction. Simply doing crunches or planks alone won’t yield visible results if a layer of fat covers the abdominal muscles. Start by incorporating full-body strength training and cardio into your routine to burn calories and improve muscle definition.

A balanced diet is critical for revealing toned abs. Focus on consuming lean proteins, whole grains, healthy fats, and plenty of fruits and vegetables. Avoid processed foods, excessive sugar, and high-calorie snacks that contribute to fat storage. Staying hydrated and limiting alcohol intake can also help in managing weight and reducing bloating.
For core-specific exercises, include moves that target all areas of the abdomen, such as planks, leg raises, and Russian twists. Diversify your workouts with functional movements that engage the core, like mountain climbers or kettlebell swings, for better overall strength.
Consistency and recovery are key. Aim to work your abs two to three times a week, allowing time for muscle repair. Combine this with adequate sleep and stress management to maintain hormonal balance, which plays a crucial role in fat loss. With dedication, a toned midsection is achievable over time.
