Ravi Mohan’s fitness routine is inspired by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay’s ‘mindspace’

Ravi Mohan’s fitness routine is inspired by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay’s ‘mindspace’

Tamil actor Ravi Mohan recently unveiled his fitness regimen, inspired by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay's concept of "mindspace." Sharing his workout on Instagram, Ravi gushed, "My @actorvijay na’s mindspace right now."

Fitness expert Garima Goyal highlighted that boxing has gained popularity as a full-body workout, combining strength, endurance, agility, and coordination. According to Goyal, boxing engages almost every major muscle group, including shoulders, chest, arms, back, core, glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves. The rapid footwork challenges balance and coordination, while the intense pace boosts cardiovascular health, stamina, and calorie burn.

Goyal also noted that boxing enhances reaction time, speed, and mental focus, as learning punch combinations and maintaining footwork demand concentration and quick decision-making. This mental workout, combined with physical exertion, releases endorphins, reduces stress, and improves overall resilience.

Fitness and performance expert Kushal Pal Singh emphasized that boxing is about precision, posture, breathing, and controlled movement, not just brute force. Recommending boxing two or three times a week, Singh stressed that proper guidance and a balanced fitness routine are essential to reap its benefits safely.

Both experts advised beginners to introduce boxing gradually, using proper technique, warming up adequately, wearing protective gear, and seeking guidance from certified trainers to minimize injury risks. Boxing is best complemented by strength training, mobility exercises, balanced nutrition, and sufficient recovery for optimal fitness.
