Sneak peek into the fitness cave of Tiger Shroff
Tiger Shroff has not only given Bollywood biggies a run for their money with his perfectly executed action sequences but also won the hearts of fans with his killer dance moves.
Since his debut with 'Heropanti, Tiger was nicknamed the 'Rambo of Bollywood' due to his extreme stunts and chiseled physique. Here's&nbsp;a peek into Tiger's fitness cave:
3 years&nbsp;of gymnastic training for 'Heropanti' For his debut film 'Heropanti', &nbsp;Tiger trained under coach Ziley Mawai, a national level gymnast from Haryana for close to 3 years. His training included back layouts, front pikes, 360-degree backward twists, wall flips, and leaps.
Tiger was&nbsp;Aamir's fitness guru&nbsp;for 'Dhoom 3' We have all seen Aamir Khan&rsquo;s six-pack abs in 'Dhoom 3', but did you know, Aamir&rsquo;s fitness guide for the film was none other than Tiger Shroff, who helped him build his physique.
Veggies&nbsp;are the secret of Tiger's chiseled body
The secret behind Tiger's greek god body is his diet. The actor has admitted to being a vegetarian, but he also eats eggs occasionally. Tiger has also revealed that he doesn't drink or smoke.
Tiger Shroff is a&nbsp;black belt&nbsp;in Taekwondo&nbsp;
There is a reason why Tiger can do stunts with so much ease, especially those really hard 360-degree kicks. Tiger has a fifth-degree black belt in Taekwondo and he does not believe in using a body double for his stunts. Probably, that's why Tiger has been officially roped in for the Indian remake of Sylvester Stallone's cult hit movie franchise 'Rambo'.
Michael Jackson&nbsp;inspired&nbsp;Tiger to take up dancing
Tiger Shroff is also an incredibly talented dancer, he says the King of Pop Michael Jackson is one of his greatest inspirations.
