\n<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Badminton ace Pusarla Venkata Sindhu aka PV Sindhu is a rockstar. Not just for her Indian compatriots but for the sporting community the world over. She knows how to live it up. Mentions of the Hyderabad girl’s love for biryani, ice creams, shopping and pop music have gained legendary status.<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old Hyderabad-bred shuttler stands 5’10” tall (1.79m). While the Indian badminton ace whose lunging leg came under pressure during the finals against Canada’s Michelle Li, her coach Park Tae Sang was sure that despite her injury, his athlete was going to win. Her physio Evangeline is quoted by the Indian Express<\/a> saying that Sindhu underwent stretching, rubbing, hydrotherapy \u2013 pool water walking to prepare for the match despite the injury.<\/p>\n

In an update, the star shuttler (P V Sindhu) on Saturday pulled out of the upcoming BWF World Championships<\/a> owing to a stress fracture on her left foot. In a statement which she shared on Twitter, the double Olympic medallist confirmed that she will be missing the 2022 World Championships.<\/p>\n

Here are 10 fitness fundas or secrets of PV Sindhu that are bound to stun you:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sindhu\u2019s never missed a single day of abs workouts \u2013 crunches, side planks, V-ups. \u201cI\u2019ve never seen another woman athlete work so hard. She\u2019s not missed abs even one day,\u201d the physio Evangeline says.<\/li>\n
  2. At the CWG, it may have been just eggs and bread, but (on a cheat day) Sindhu can polish off an entire biryani and work it all off with added hard work, or munch on a Samosa and hours later get onto the court and still win, Evangeline says.<\/li>\n
  3. Sindhu values fellow humans and few airs. Evangeline, her physio from Sirbur Kagazhangar in Telangana says, “Like if she goes out for coffee, she\u2019ll casually ask if her staff wants coffee, and actually get coffee for us. She\u2019s a big star, she doesn\u2019t need to do that.”<\/li>\n
  4. According to Vogue, Sindhu’s fitness regime \u201cI start my morning session at 7 am, which goes on till about 12pm. This is when I focus on my game on the court, post which I head home for lunch at 1 pm and rest until 3 pm. I am back at the academy by 4 pm for endurance training and wrap up my day by 7 pm.<\/li>\n
  5. Sindhu’s pre-workout routine? Begin with stretching exercises and finish with a run. There is no cast-in-stone workout regimen and the workout session varies every day – planned on a monthly basis, focusing on her back, abdomen, knees and shoulders. She also swims a lot.<\/li>\n
  6. Sindhu’s diet is a good balance of carbs and proteins. In the mornings, it is milk, eggs and fruits for breakfast. Sindhu says the value of hydration – continuous and as and when needed – can never be overstated as it can make or break an athlete’s training and fitness. \u201cFor lunch and dinner, I eat meat with vegetables and rice. Also, I never leave for my workout without a snack in my kitbag \u2014 this is usually a small bowl of fruits, a few dried nuts and a sports drink, or an energy drink,” she told Vogue in 2017.<\/li>\n
  7. Sindhu’s father PV Ramana, himself being a volleyball payer who was a part of the national team that won bronze at the 1986 Seoul Asian Games, had helped her in improving her game. For 12 years, the father-daughter duo would wake up at 3 am, and the father drove the daughter twice in the day to her training at Pullela Gopichand’s academy 60 km away. Sindhu’s mum was an international volleyball player too.<\/li>\n
  8. Sindhu routinely undergoes blood work to let her doctor know her blood composition, body weight, heart rate, physical strength and stamina; and concentrates more on her physical fitness. Her nutrition and fitness plans are modulated accordingly.<\/li>\n
  9. Endurance and strength training: Sindhu follows an alternate running session that includes two to three sets of ten 400m runs and a single 2.4 km run on the other day. She performs 100 push-ups and 200 sit-ups in a day. This makes for 600 pushups and 2400 abdominal exercises in a week to activate her core and abdominal muscles.<\/li>\n
  10. Extremely balanced and non-biased in her approach, incorporating the best of all worlds, Sindhu\u2019s daily schedule also includes practising ancient and proven health techniques like Yoga, Pranayama, and Kapalabhati.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
