What is your way to keep fit?
In today’s fast paced world, where technology is racing ahead of times, don’t we feel we are so bound by the electrical and electronic facilities that we have to a large extent long forgotten the needs of a healthy and fit body which comes naturally when one is active throughout the day and doing his daily tasks without getting dependent on science and its products.
Although, thanks to the media, there is , somewhat a realization of the need of fitness and a regular exercise in our lives, but still, majority of us have been accustomed to such a leisurely and comfortable life, that it is very difficult to come out of this part of our living and start working towards a healthier body. One must realize that health is the mightiest wealth anyone can earn.
Although, I am quiet impressed of the newer and funkier ways to keep fit, I am doubtful of their effects, be them positive or negative. The other day, one of my friends joined a belly dance course to shed those extra kilos explaining that the vigorous one class helps one keep some amount of activity in the day.
Another very in thing is power yoga, which is quiet thankfully popularized by Kareena Kapoor and Shilpa Shetty. Becoming a fad with the youngsters, the new name for a more vigorous yoga, power yoga is luring a lot of people.
With these ways, our old ways of aerobics and dance sessions also hold good with the middle class people who cannot afford the hefty amounts of the more sophisticated belly dance, tap dance, jazz etc. but the more hi- tech gyms being opened up throughout the country are nowhere behind in pinching your pockets.
For me, I still owe my health and fitness to the morning family jogs and the series of exercises that are decided by my mum. It sure is a good way to keep yourself fit, healthy and for a fresher day and a younger heart, skin and body. What do you people say? What is your opinion in this? Do you have anything more interesting and funkier that links your health and fun…..do comment to help me find some better ways…
