Gym and regular exercise had been always an integral part of my life since I was fourteen years old. I joined a dangla Pragati vyayamakalasala in the chengalraopeta of Vizag in the early 70s. My guru taught me doing and baithak ...every eleven times after wearing a loincloth and obeisance to veeranjanelu Hanuman. A brief application of mustard oil was a must before any exercise. Later I was inducted into weight lifting.
I won a few prizes in weightlifting during my college days at AVN College. Despite my best efforts, I could never acquire those six-packs. Interestingly, at 65 I still have a strong desire to acquire those six-packs...haha. My looks might have been different at my present age of 65 runnings, had I not continuously done gymming regularly.
