Malaika Arora is a fitness fiend. She goes to the gym regularly to maintain a fit and fabulous body, and to inspire others to also follow an active lifestyle. While the actor and model is regular with her yoga asanas, there are certain exercises that she does every day to maintain her body, flatten her tummy and to tone down her waist. The 50-year-old recently took to Instagram to share with her fans and followers the secret behind her perfectly-sculpted look. In a video, Malaika demonstrated a few exercises that required her to move her arms and legs, in order to work on the muscles of her abdomen. "Work those abs baby," she captioned the video.

The first exercise involved the actor moving her arms in order to create a circular path for a dumbbell, which she shifted from one hand to another while doing the exercise. While she started in a clockwise manner, she also changed the path of the dumbbell to move it in an anti-clockwise manner. The mother-of-one explained that these exercises can help a person strengthen their deep core and pelvic floor muscles.

Dressed in a neon yellow sports bra and a matching pair of shorts, Malaika also demonstrated another exercise in which she held her dumbbell -- that is used for weights -- over her head with both her hands, and lifted one leg to bend it at the knee and bring it close to the chest. She repeated it with the other leg. According to the fitness enthusiast, these exercises are harder than they actually look, but they are super effective.

Malaika demonstrated another routine that involved her legs. While carrying the dumbbell in her hands, she bent one of her knees sideways to stretch the other leg out. She bent really low, and lifted her hands as well to stretch her torso while carrying the weight. She repeated this movement with the other leg.

This was followed by another exercise, which was slightly faster. The actor slightly bent her body to lift her hands and bring one of her legs closer to the chest by bending her knee. The exercise involved the movement of her hands and legs in a coordinated manner to achieve the desired result, which is a flat stomach and a toned-down waist.

Do three rounds of these four exercises every day. Do them for 40 seconds, followed by a break of 20 seconds and then another round.
