Today’s world is full of fitness influencers, who usually depend on GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic to help in weight-loss. However, Rohit Sharma did not get influenced by these drugs, and Ryan Fernando (celebrity nutritionist) revealed that Rohit solely worked on his diet and showed excellent cardio fitness.

I worked with Rohit Sharma on his diet. He’s demonstrated excellent cardiovascular fitness. He recently passed the yo-yo test, which is the highest possible level. This measures endurance, agility, and match readiness. Now maybe his puffiness or his body composition does not appeal to us in India, but his results speak for themselves. So it’s very wrong for us to be judgmental. It’s like in India—you go to a party and somebody’s too skinny, somebody’s too fat, and you make fun of them,” he said.
