Salman Khan, Bollywood's Original Muscle Man

Salman Khan is the epitome of bodybuilding in Bollywood. He’s the original six-pack abs hero, and a trend setter who made bulging biceps and a ripped body look cool on screen. Fondly called as Bhai, Salman is still the reigning king of Bollywood and continues to inspire the new generation of stars to stay fit, strong and healthy.

In his recent avatar as a wrestler in ‘Sultan’, Salman has pushed himself to bulk up like never before... Celebrity trainer and fitness expert Rakesh Udiyar, who has trained many Bollywood stars including Salman’s brother, Arbaaz Khan, shares with us his experience of training the original muscle man of Bollywood.

Sculpting Star Bodies

Bodybuilding was his passion, but celebrity training was Rakesh’s dream from a very young age. Says he, “Despite suffering a paralytic stroke, my father had a chiselled physique, and that motivated me to get into fitness. Today, I am a certified trainer, having done specialized fitness courses, and have been a celebrity fitness expert for over 10 years now.”

From Marathi actors like Sayaji Shinde to Bollywood actors like Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Arbaaz Khan, Sangeeta Bijlani and many others, Rakesh is living his dream of sculpting Bollywood bodies.
