Deol Jr is so serious about working out that he refuses to stop despite muscle injury

Bobby Deol has joined a select group of fit actors.

Says a source, "Bobby has been working out to a strict exercise-and-diet regimen for the last couple of months to build up a lean, mean body.

He has realised that one needs to be fit in today's times. He's almost obsessed with it so much so that when he recently sprained a groin muscle while playing badminton he didn't want to stop working out."

Not enough

Adds the source, "Bobby's doctor had to finally put his foot down and strictly tell the actor to stop. But for Bobs, even that wasn't enough. After resting for two days, he went back to swimming half an hour every day because he didn't want to stop exercising."

Wanna be lean

Bobby says, "I was playing at my club in Juhu when I pulled a groin muscle. The doctor told me not to exercise and take it easy on cardio and weights, but I didn't want to stop. I'm working out for myself and not for any film. It's high time I get healthier. I don't want six-pack abs but just be fit and lean."

Bobby's got a trainer helping him to build a lean body for the last two months at his own personal gym at his Juhu bungalow. He works out every day at home for two hours alternating between cardio and weights five times a week followed by a no-oil, fat and sugar-free diet.

The actor says, "I eat the right kind of food todaygreens, salads, soups, grilled fish, light food, sprouts.u00a0 I try to stick to my workouts because I have to maintain the body I am achieving."

u00a0However there's one thing that Bobby will never have supplements. He says, "I don't take them because I don't believe in them. If I did,u00a0 I would have had six-pack abs by now."

Bobby soon starts working with his dad Dharamendra for his home production Cheers.
