Krishna Janmashtami 2021 falls on August 30, Sunday. The day is celebrated to mark the birthday of Lord Krishna, the eighth avatar of Lord Vishnu.

And it doubles up during Janmashtami celebrations as Lord Krishna is believed to be a big lover of sweets and savouries, especially Makhan-Mishri!

3. Mountain Climbers
This is one of the best overall toning and fat-burning moves. The best part about this exercise is that it does not require any equipment.

Jackknife crunch is an advanced level exercise that engages both the upper and lower abdomen for maximal toning in the least amount of time.
