Kapil Sharma’s surprising weight loss transformation caught everyone’s eye. Known for his impeccable comic timing, the ace comedian is now earning all the love for his new, lean and confident avatar.
Behind the drastic change is not just a diet plan or rigorous training, but a well-planned lifestyle led by his fitness trainer Yogesh Bhateja.
Yogesh, who has trained many Bollywood biggies like Farah Khan, Kangana Ranuat, and Sonu Sood, shared that Kapil’s weight loss journey wasn’t an easy one. But through disciplined lifestyle, smart approach and a technique called the 21-21-21 rule, his habits reshaped and inspired him to shed those extra pounds.
Kapil Sharma’s weight loss journey
Yogesh started training Kapil at home, using basic tools like resistance bands and Yoga mat. Gym equipments were later added in his fitness journey. Describing the first day of his training, Yogesh said, “The story of Day 1 is actually pretty funny. I asked him to do stretches, and because he hadn’t moved his body in a long time, even simple movements like arm rotations, body twists, and toe touches caused him discomfort. His expressions were so exaggerated and comic From the very next day, he was back on schedule, and we began with basic movements. That’s when I realised how stiff his body had become; there was no food discipline, and a lot of inflammation in his body.”
What made things worse for Kapil Sharma during his weight loss programme?
Yogesh revealed that Kapil’s hectic lifestyle made things more challenging for him. “Since Kapil was the main guy, the responsibility on him was even greater. He was sleep-deprived, his diet had no set pattern, and he would eat at odd times. There was no discipline. It took me a long time, along with his manager and team, to bring some alignment into his lifestyle. But by God’s grace, when his film came out, everyone saw the difference on screen,” he added.

In his diet, Yogesh made few changes, by instructing him to have more fish, calling it “a great source of protein that helps manage calories.” He also included a good amount of vegetables in his meals.
