Fitness has become a sort of newfangled obsession for Bollywood in recent years. Actresses are snapped walking out of exercise studios all dressed up in chic workout wear, making it an opportune moment to showcase their gym looks too. Long before any of it, Shilpa Shetty was already living it. Over a decade ago, Shilpa released a yoga DVD; an unheard of celebrity trend back then. Years later, with a book, an app and many more wellness properties to her name, Shilpa is still a foremost celebrity fitness figure.
Amongst motivational quotes and healthy recipes on her Instagram profile, she took to the platform to share her yoga tutorial to fix a problem we're definitely facing. Without regular rounds of walking for errands and office commuting, our body's agility is sure to have taken a hit. You will feel this in the stiffness of your back or ache in your shoulders, arms and neck. Shilpa takes the mat and shows us how to do a combination of yoga asanas like Vyaghrasana, Marjariasana, and Utthana Vyaghrasana to remedy these health issues being faced in quarantine.

Shilpa's asanas being demonstrated take place on all fours with a straight back. This allows the area to be stretched into shape for stiffness and aches to be a thing of the past.

While most of us are living majorly sedentary lifestyles right now, taking time to stretch and exercise is incredibly important as it will improve mobility, balance and strength.
