I was never overweight, but never lean. I wanted to be like an athlete.
Why you decided to Transform?
I wanted to be like an athlete and feel that change. More over as a martial artist, working out gives me inner peace. I was nicknamed fat boy in school and though I tried in my initial years to change that perspective by going to gym, extra indulgence with food and lack of knowledge about how to have a balanced diet kept me away from getting the desired result. This was the time I joined Gold's gym and got a body composition report and a diet counselling. I educated myself on diet and this was the turning point
How did you accomplish your Goal:
I was regular in gym for the past 6-7 years, but never saw good result. The main thing I missed was diet. I was completely ignorant about how diet can influence your body. After a counselling session and a body composition report from Golds gym in HSR Layout, Bangalore, I decided to keep a note of food I intake. I kept my training and food diary. Never missed a meal or indulged in processed junk food. Started with a BF of 21 and got it down to 8.3

Suggestion for future transformers
Stay consistent with your training and diet. Most importantly diet as there are chances that you might slip with your tongue even though you are pumping iron in gym. Stay consistent and results will come.
