The three best months to workout given how the sun shines in India are probably between February to April. This is the best time to prime your body for the summers, get stronger and gain some good weight with a diet of whole carbs, proteins, fruits and vegetables, and also sweat it out with some solid higher intensity work. Follow this routine and your body will thank you when it becomes tougher to workout in higher temperatures. So treat them as transition months between winter and the gritty summer.

For those who set goals in December for the new year, this is the time to see how far you've come and how far you have to go. The best part about fitness is that the end goal keeps changing as the body keeps changing. Keeping that in mind, make the most of April with these five workouts that will test you and get you ready for the heat.
