Are you happy with your current health and diet regimen?

Yes, I am very happy with my diet and fitness regimen. It ranges from functional to weight lifting to stretching; I do a variety of things and try to mix it up, and not let my body get used to one style of training. I am not much into junk food and don’t indulge in diet supplements either. My diet was decent in 2019, but that is something I have to improve this year.

What is your new year resolution as far as diet and exercise are concerned?

I plan to eat less sweets. I eat moderately and healthy most of the time but sweets are something I can’t resist once I begin. I already exercise a lot but will try to increase my tolerance levels. Exercising in the morning is beneficial, so I will stick to the morning routine. If I am unable to do so, I will make up for it during the day.

Do you subscribe to outdoor activities like running, jogging, golf, or do you prefer sports like badminton, tennis and squash?

Sport is good for body and mind. I like all types of activities, whether it is outdoor or indoor. I enjoy running and jogging, I have played badminton, tennis and squash, but my first love will always be football. Running on a treadmill, weight training, or any other gym activity is also good.

Do you keep changing your format of exercise?

Yes, I keep changing my format of exercise because once your body gets used to a certain routine or a certain kind of training, the growth stops. It is always better to switch to different training forms, trying something new in a bid to shock the body. It keeps the body flexible and injuries at bay.
