Shilpa Shetty Kundra discovers fitness gem in Rajasthan; tries traditional chakki workout

Taking to her social media platform on Monday, Shilpa Shetty shared an insightful video showcasing her experience with the traditional chakki. The video commenced with a local woman operating the chakki, demonstrating its seamless functionality. Inspired by the sight, Shilpa eagerly took on the challenge, immersing herself in the age-old practice. Expressing her exhilaration, Shilpa emphasized the holistic benefits of the chakki workout, highlighting its ability to strengthen the arms, enhance digestion, stimulate reproductive organs, and improve flexibility in the back and hamstring muscles.

In her post, she acknowledged the profound respect garnered for individuals who regularly engage in this traditional activity, honouring their dedication and resilience. However, Shilpa cautioned her followers to exercise discretion, urging those with pre-existing health conditions such as back pain, slip-disc issues, and pregnancy to refrain from practicing the chakki asana.

Prioritizing safety and well-being. She wrote in the caption, “During my recent visit to Rajasthan, when I saw a chakki, I knew I had to do it. And, oh my God! What a workout! No wonder the Chakki Chalasana strengthens the arms, improves digestion, stimulates the reproductive organs, and increases the flexibility of the back & hamstring muscles. (Going back to your roots and working the actual chakki also gives you immense respect for the people who do it regularly). Make sure to avoid practising this asana if you have back pain, suffer from slip-disc, and during pregnancy. Have you ever worked on a chakki before? Let me know in the comments below!”
