21 Days Lockdown With 21/90 Rule: A Simple Way To Develop Healthy Habits, Lose Weight And Get Fitter

For 21 days, the entire country is going to be on a lockdown. This indeed is a perfect time to start a few healthy habits. Even those who are working from are left with some extra time in their schedule in which they can develop a new healthy habit. Nutritionists and health experts are advising people to follow the popular 21/90 rule. This is a simple rule in which you can commit to a personal or professional goal for 21 days straight. After three weeks, the pursuit of that goal can become a habit. Once you have established that habit, you can continue to do it for the next 90 days.

Nutritionist Nmami Agarwal recently took to Instagram to talk about this rule and how it can help you get fitter and healthier. "Let's start today, let's start now, and build at least three to four good habits in these 21 days," she says in her IGTV.

Nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar, on the other hand, has been sharing workout and diet plans that one can follow on each day of quarantine.

• For lunch, you can have sabudana wada with homemade chutney or sabudana khichdi with dahi.
• After lunch, you can have murmura or puffed rice roasted in ghee and salt.
• Have an early dinner. This can be one of the goals of your 21/90 rule. You can have jeera rice with some cooked sprouts, or dal rice, or khichdi.
• On bedtime, a cup of turmeric milk can do wonders for improving your immunity. Or, you can also have gulkand or ginger tea.
