Bollywood actress Preity Zinta has opened up about a recent shoulder injury that left her unable to follow her regular fitness routine. The actress revealed that she suffered the injury while shooting for her upcoming film ‘Vibe’, and said the setback was particularly difficult because working out has been an important part of her routine for years.
She also explained how difficult it has been to move her arm and her mobility as well due to her shoulder injury. "For someone who has worked out most of my life, it’s been very demoralising to not be able to go to the gym or work out because of a recent shoulder injury. During the shooting of my new film - Vibe, I injured my shoulder, and since then it has been an uphill task to even move my arm & mobilise my shoulder," she mentioned in an Instagram post.
Despite the tough times, Preity Zinta ensured that she was consistent and patient throughout her recovery journey. She used the experience to encourage fans who may be dealing with injuries or struggling with motivation. "If any one of you is feeling down cuz your body is struggling with an injury or there is a loss of motivation…. Remember, it’s all about being consistent, and all you need is Baby steps!" her post mentioned.
Reminding people that gradually returning to fitness can help them regain their strength, the actress motivated people not to be discouraged by temporary setbacks and asked people to stay positive and strong.
Preity also highlighted the importance of prioritising health, describing good health as a form of true wealth.
