Kareena Kapoor: Does 50 surya namaskars a day!
Kareena Kapoor has a lot to thank Ashtanga yoga and surya namaskars in particular for her talked-about size zero figure. She does up to 50 surya namaskars a day and kapalbhati up to 1000 times. Surya namaskars are a combination of 11 yoga poses done in continuation. If done in quick successions, even 20 of them can burn up to 278 calories.
Kapaalbhati are breathing exercises wherein you breathe in slowly and exhale with force. Push your diaphragm out when you inhale and pull it in when you inhale. Kapaalbhati not only de-stresses you, but gives you glowing skin too other than toning your abs. Go slow when you start with this one. You may wear out your body soon if you attempt too many surya namaskars at one go - especially if you are a beginner. Increase the number of reps gradually.

Our body has not been replenished for nearly eight hours. So, when we wake up, we need to provide it with something that can help provide it energy like a combination of carbs and proteins. Studies say that people who ate a sumptuous breakfast, ate lesser throughout the day as compared to those who did not. ( idiva.com )
