Apart from his attacking batting, Pandey has earned wide plaudits for his sensational fielding skills, whose base stems from his astute fitness levels.\n<p>\u201cBeing from an army background, it helped me as a kid because we had the opportunity to play a lot of different sports back then. So, that really helped me as a kid to have that early foundation of the kind of fitness,\u201d said Pandey in an episode of 'Train Like a Knight'.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pandey, whose lone appearance in IPL 2025 came via making 19 in KKR\u2019s defeat to Mumbai Indians (MI), shed some light on how his typical fitness routine looks like. \u201cI keep it very simple, try and stick to my goals, which is two strength and two cardio sessions in a week.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In terms of nutrition, Pandey, 35, shared that he prefers having a light breakfast before going for gym session. \u201cI'm not a big breakfast eater. My typical breakfast would contain eggs and porridge because I can start my workout immediately after an hour or so.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cFor my afternoon meals, I go a little heavy because I feel I've finished my gym. Then I can set myself for an evening sport. Probably get another boiled egg or something there. And a little bit of curd to accompany the whole thing,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pandey also talked about his fondness of having curd in his meals. \u201cAny kind of meal I'm having, either it's rice, dal, there must be curd in it. It's obviously good for the gut, especially during the summers, to make one feel nice and light.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cFor my afternoon meals, I go a little heavy because I feel I've finished my gym.
