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

Celebrity fitness trainer Vinod Channa, who has guided Anant Ambani and Nita Ambani in their weight loss journeys, says repeated cycles of weight gain and loss, often experienced when lifestyle routines vary week to week, can have notable effects on the body. He discussed the impact of these fluctuations on metabolism, muscles, and overall health in a November 21 Instagram post.

How the body responds

Channa explained, “What actually happens in the body? The human body starts utilising stored fat for energy. That’s why people begin to look more muscular. First, they increase their weight-training progressively and follow a high-intensity workload. They lift heavier weights and reduce their cardio. Cardio only burns calories while you do it, but heavy training creates enough stimulus and burns calories effectively.”

Balance is key

He emphasised the importance of balancing exercise and nutrition. “Wherever needed, they increase strength training. This gives a good response from the body and fat starts reducing faster. But the body cannot react the same way forever. If it doesn’t respond well, they adjust the workout pattern, either increasing or decreasing it. They balance it.”

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