8 hours 58 min agoI strongly believe that the family that eats, prays and works out together, stays together. Being so busy from doing a job I loved around my family made me so happy. We didn’t have a lot of time to snack, so we tried to make the most of every meal and we noticed after about three months we had lost weight and felt more energetic. This was so encouraging for us as a family and that was the first time we realized small workout changes could make a big difference over time if we stick with them forever & ever

5 days 3 hours agoWe are a family of four. Fitness has always been of prime importance and never a matter of concern. As a responsible caretaker of my family, I believe in serving my family a balanced diet to everyone which includes one-two kinds of fruit, 500ml milk, a handful of cereals and 2-3kinds of vegetables, raw or boiled every day. I do not prefer outside food. Instead, I cook dishes of different cuisine at home. Rather than dieting, I prefer having enough quantity of all kinds of food either fast food or junk food or traditional food that we like, but also give priority to exercising in an equal proportion to maintain fitness. Minimum 30-minutes yoga every day and zero dependencies on maid helps us stay fit too. I also do prefer to have a peaceful sleep of a minimum of 6 hours. Since these practices have already been consistent in my family, my family fitness goal for the new year is to continue the same practice but with added goals, such as increasing the water consumption and regulating consistency in sleep pattern.

Jan 21, 2021We all wish to be fit and healthy... At some point Probably we all would have planned to workout everyday but stopped doing it in a few days... In order to continue it everyday and make it a success we should set goals that motivates us and help us keep on continuing... Doing it with family is a added bonus.. This year we just started with a simple way to exercise... we promised not to use the lift and climb up to the 5th floor using stairs... it may look simple but it is one of the hardest thing to do... we also give each other funny tasks if anyone miss to use the stairs... reducing the two wheeler ride to near by places has proven to be a good way to stay fit... holding my kids hands and walking with him to nearby stores is really fun , I get to know him a bit more... this really helps us bond and never fail to make us laugh.. and on the healthier side , we take one fruit and vegetable everyday... we each take turns in deciding the fruit and veggie of the day... simple things makes a great way to stay fit and healthy...

Jan 17, 2021My family's collective fitness goal this year is to tone muscles and control breath .For this we have cleaned our pond in our backyard and started taking swimming classes from our uncle who is an expert swimmer.Not only is it family fun time but also burns calories real quick.Once done we are real hungry and munch on steamed food and salads.We ensure whole fruits are part of our daily diet.We switch on music and practice Zomba.Non veg is welcomed only once in a week and detoxifying neem and turmeric drink is common once in a week. Fermented food items are relished quite often.Swimming is definitely our best pick.

Jan 09, 2021Fitness is not a destination it's a way of life. When we step towards achieving a healthy and fit lifestyle we feel content but sometimes we might get distracted. When we take an oath to be fit as a family we get motivated and enjoy the efforts because of our company. In 2020 lockdown I realised the importance of home cooked food and i know that all delicious food can be prepared in an healthy and hygienic manner at home. Our family has decided to take following steps- 1. We avoid eating outside food 2. We have been using olive oil for almost all dishes. 3. We avoid deep fried food and maida. 4. We have started going for walks after dinner 5. We spend time playing games on terrace which is a fun and fit routine 6. We do Surya namaskara every morning and evening 7. Me and my brother compete in skipping to know who does it more number of times. 8. We play badminton and go for jogging. 9. We avoid using vehicle and go by walk to get things from shop.

Jan 07, 2021Almost a year being inside homes has taken major toll both mentally and physically on our bodies. We as a family have decided to stay active, doing workouts at home and walks early morning. We also engage in family games and activities giving us a break from our gadgets to freshen up our minds from school and office work. We have also started sharing the load of work in the house so that work eases off for one person and also importance to homecooked food with less from outside.
