Life throws so many curve balls at us that it's nice to have something that grounds us, something to keep coming back to.
Just make sure that when you get back to training, you do it mindfully and gradually. Build slowly and allow yourself the chance to adjust and grow back into it. One step at a time goes a long way!"

This is not the first time that fitness enthusiast Anil Kapoor has shared something on fitness. The actor has been motivating his fans for a long time now, during the lockdown the actor had shared his thoughts about fitness and stressed how fitness is never a one-man crusade.
Posting a picture of him wearing track pants at a beach, the actor shared his love for food and wrote: "Everyone has a weak point. Mine is food. The Punjabi boy in me needs the taste buds ignited, my eyes always bigger than my belly. During the lockdown, I have set myself the task of achieving a new sharper look. This new look needs a new approach to eating. I try and I battle. Sometimes I even fall. And what I've learned through it all is that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. So everyone in the house had to get involved. From those who kindly cook my food to the support of my family gathered around me at mealtime. Fitness is never a one-man/women crusade, it's about support and encouragement when we need it the most. (Always get the family involved and onboard to help you in any diet if you wish to make it truly a success)".
