I take pride in introducing myself as a lover of fitness. Fitness happened to me about 15 years ago. From being a docile homemaker to owning a fitness studio and jointly leading a real estate company, the journey has been exciting. Fitness has changed the way I look at myself today. I have never had any inspiration in the fitness world, I was an inspiration to myself. I always believe that if we want to be ahead of others, we just need to be a better version of ourselves each day because there is no one better to compete with than ourselves. Fitness has changed me from inside out. Being fit and healthy doesn’t stop at sporting a toned physique, it is more to do with our mental health and how we feel about ourselves from within. It is directly related to our self-esteem. A healthy body represents a healthy mind, a disciplined lifestyle and also embodies self-love.
Fitness for me is just like meditation. It is my store house of energy which keeps me going. I have been working on my fitness for over a decade now. Being trained on kick boxing, body weight workouts, high-intensity cardio, power yoga, flexibility and strength development workout, I have a strong appreciation for any form of fitness. I am also a Certified Pilates Instructor from Balanced Body, USA. According to me, there is no one form of fitness that is best. Our body needs various types of exercise to ensure that we remain in shape, our weight remains under control and at the same time we build strength, firm up our muscles and increase our stamina.
Fitness is something that rejuvenates you, gives you energy to pull through the day, makes you feel fresh, builds confidence inside you to accept any kind of challenge. Being a woman who is playing various roles every day, it becomes very important to manage time well and keep the energy levels up right till the end of the day. I sincerely believe that my morning run, or a pilates session or my kickboxing, whatever form of exercise I choose to do on a particular day, gives me the kick, pumps in the energy and gives me the confident spirit to go on.
True enjoyment comes from activity of the mind and exercise of the body; the two are ever united.
