Overview
- Karan Sawhney shared the November 17 Instagram video of Alia Bhatt with the caption, “Legs Miserable With @aliaabhatt. #glutes #legs #workout.”
- The session opens with treadmill cardio followed by jumping squats performed with added resistance using bands or ropes anchored to heavy dumbbells.
- Bhatt executes elevated sumo squats by standing on two benches and holding a dumbbell, increasing range of motion and balance demands.
- Barbell squats are performed with bands around the thighs and a ball set on an elevated surface to guide depth and maintain controlled form.
- Hindustan Times, Times Now, and News18 corroborate the exercises, frame the routine as functional strength work, and emphasize trainer-led guidance on technique, consistency, and injury prevention while noting the reports are informational rather than medical advice.
