Legendary pacer Wasim Akram has opened up on his morning routine providing intriguing insight into his lifestyle and diet behind his noteworthy fitness even after so many years after his retirement from the game.
Akram, aged 57, often posts videos and pictures on his social media accounts showing him either engaging in various physical activities or advising his followers to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Taking to social media, the ex-cricketer posted a video wherein he elaborated on what his mornings look like and what he has for breakfast.
"I woke up at 6:30am, had six units of insulin, drank coffee and then went for a morning walk," he said.
Revealing that he walked for around 8.5 kilometres, Akram moved on to his breakfast which included low-fat yoghurt coupled with fruits such as Bananas, blueberries, muesli, and "bird food" i.e., raisins and nuts.
"After this breakfast, I'll have a lot more energy," he said, adding that he will head off to the gym after that.
Saying that people from Pakistan, India might notice him not having nihari and naan (flatbread), the veteran cricketer said that he doesn't consume such a diet.
"I don't eat that. This is my breakfast and the healthiest one," he noted.
