Royal | News - Prince Ricardo De La Cerda
Meghan Markle’s influence on Prince Harry has become more noticeable, with a fitness expert claiming he may have taken up yoga and pilates. The Duke of Sussex was spotted as he went for a walk near his home in California wearing shorts, a puffer jacket and a beanie.
His body appeared to be more toned than when he played rugby and polo. Personal trainer Lewis Paris said it is likely that regular gym visits are keeping Harry lean. Paris believes the prince could be doing a workout of running, strength sessions and total body activity.
He told the Daily Mail: “Shaping the legs takes more effort than just losing the weight, doing some form of strength training will help to form the legs (body) you desire. Pilates can help with core strength, posture development and mobility. So Prince Harry is probably engaging in a weekly training routine of doing it three to five times per week to build muscle, maintain weight and keep fit.
“With Harry’s military background, he will be benefiting from sticking to a routine and maintaining discipline and focus to get into shape and then to maintain his physique.”
Prince Harry’s mother-in-law Doria Ragland has been a yoga teacher in Los Angeles for years and in 2017 she said: “Yoga is my thing.”
