Fitness is more than an hour at the gym. A NASM Certified Personal Trainer explores sleep, nutrition, movement, breathing and stress through personal training experiences and exercise science.

My first BRM 200 turned out to be a ride full of lessons in endurance and resilience. Battling two punctures, scorching 37°C heat, strong headwinds, heavy traffic, and long flyovers, the journey from Velachery to Tada and back tested both body and mind. What started as a nervous first attempt became a story of determination, kindness from strangers, and the stubborn will to keep pedalling.
