Jr. NTR lost 9.5 kg of muscle in just 7 weeks

This is the portion that truly draws your attention. According to his trainer, Kumar Mannava, Jr NTR lost 9.5 kg of muscular mass. Not fat. Muscle. And this happened in just seven weeks.

It wasn't simply about losing weight. The objective was different. According to Deccan Chronicle, the goal was to develop a slimmer, more nimble body for the part.

Jr NTR's metamorphosis is the result of modifications in his diet and workout routine. To get there, the entire schedule had to shift. Heavy muscle-building activities were reduced in intensity. Instead, the emphasis moved to functional training, increased cardio, and moderate resistance exercise.

His timetable was tight. Every day, we have early morning sessions. Each one lasted between 45 and 90 minutes, depending on whether the focus was cardio or strength.

The diet underwent a similar transformation. Rather than sticking to a high-protein diet, which typically promotes muscle building, Jr NTR went the other direction. A low protein diet helped him lose the muscular mass he had gained over time.

It sounds straightforward when you read it. But it isn't. Seven weeks. That level of discipline. A extremely particular objective. The photo shows the end outcome.
