Consistency Over Intensity: Building Sustainable Fitness
I believe strength is built 'thoda thoda, roz' (little by little, every day). Here is how you can stop chasing perfection and start building a practice that actually lasts.
Here I talk about the difference between a 'maintenance practice' for your busy weekdays and 'scaling up' when you have more time. This mindset helps remove the pressure and frustration of feeling like you're not doing enough.
A yoga or strength practice is built on four pillars: mobility, flexibility, strength, and awareness. It's not just about being flexible, but about creating a balanced body and a present mind.
I was once terrified of public speaking, but my journey taught me so much. In this clip, I share a personal story about how my past jobs helped me find my voice and how I use those lessons to connect with and inspire others today.
About My Approach: Consistency Over Intensity
You do not need to be a 'tuphani' (storm) performer every day to see results. I teach my students to be 'maintenance practitioners'—on busy weekdays, you do a shorter session to keep the habit alive, and when you have a holiday, you scale up. This mindset shift is exactly how we avoid burnout and keep moving, even when life feels 'tight'.
True fitness is not just about how much weight you can lift; it is built on four distinct pillars: mobility, flexibility, strength, and awareness. Many of us jump into fitness wanting 100% results in one day, only to quit after a week because we are sore or frustrated. That is why my 'Fit at 40' batches and strength courses focus on sustainable progress. Whether you are joining my online Zoom sessions from home or training with me here in Mumbai, we use a structured approach.
We start with mobility drills like the Elephant walk or Camel walk to open up stiff joints. Then, we move to active and passive flexibility, ensuring your body stays resilient. We add light dumbbell work, usually 3kg to 5kg, for functional strength. The most important pillar is awareness—being present in your body and knowing when to push and when to rest.
My classes are a mix of Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa principles, delivered in a way that respects your schedule. You do not need to be flexible to start; you just need to show up. We use props like chairs and belts to make every pose accessible, no matter your current fitness level. My goal is to help you build a relationship with your body where you actually look forward to your practice, rather than seeing it as another chore on your to-do list.
