According to the entrepreneur, the mantra of “Control + Alt + Delete” that can be put to one’s fitness routine, too!

“One should be able to control their cravings, alter their thoughts, and delete the doubts,” he said. So, start by altering your thoughts and truly focusing on your goals when it comes to your well-being, Gautam added.

Here are some tips from fitness trainer Sohrab Khushrushahi, founder of SOHFIT.

Be consistent

Working out is about enjoying yourself and what your body can do, it isn’t about beating yourself every single time. Yes, it’s great to feel an adrenaline rush, but not at the cost of your health.

Evolve everyday

“Sometimes, just moving and enjoying the movement is good enough. Surely, you can have a session or two in a week where you go all out and enjoy that burn, but you can’t do that for 7 days a week, 365 days a year for the rest of your life. Your body needs down-time, too.”

Clean eating

Consuming lots of protein shakes every day is not the answer; try and get your protein from natural foods, he says.

Keep it simple

“The simpler you keep it, the more chance you have to succeed. The end result is never in our hands, the process is,” he mentions.
