Too much of anything is bad for health. Uday Chopra finds that out the hard way.
Uday Chopra is addicted to his daily workout routine, which also includes an hour of running on the treadmill. However, his love for running has resulted in a health scare. The actor was recently diagnosed with tibio-fibular dysfunction - a condition that develops after running or over exerting oneself.
Joints under stress
The fact that he is flat-footed has aggravated the condition, "My flat feet have to bear the body weight and as a result of which my joints are under stress. The physiotherapist told me that it's also due to the way I put down my foot while running. So I have to change that and then everything will be fine."
When asked if he was overdoing the gym-rat bit he says, "Not really. I have been working out for a very long time so it's nothing new. It's just a condition that needs some correction. I love running and I don't think anything can make me give it up."
