March 29, 2024 by HealthKart Leave a Comment

1. Why did you decide to transform?

I decided to transform my body because I was bullied and body shamed as I was really thin.

2. How did you accomplish your goals?

I made sure that I never forget what I have been through in the past. And whenever I was close to quitting, I reminded myself as to why I started this journey in the first place.

3. Training routine that helped you achieve your goals?

On alternate days, I kept 2 hours in the morning for weight training with 15 minutes of cardio. Along with this, I made sure I took a proper diet.

4. Which supplements did you take?

Protein has been a go-to supplement for me and along with it I took creatine and citrulline malate. Sometimes, I also take pre-workout as well as multivitamins.

5. What challenges did you face during your transformation?

I was really demotivated when I realised that even though I’m working hard I could not get the desired results. Later, I realised that this was due to my lack of knowledge on the right diet and supplements. Moreover, family and friends tried to stop me from going to the gym and consuming supplements. Lack of money also posed an issue, as it made it hard for me to buy supplements.

6. Suggestion for future transformers.

Always listen to your heart and mind. Ignore all those who demotivate you. Always remind yourself why you started this journey before thinking of quitting.

Showing It to the Body Shamers – Shruti Pawar’s Journey

January 30, 2024 by HealthKart Leave a Comment

1. Why did you decide to transform?

I decided to transform because I wanted to take control of my health and overall well-being. I was tired of feeling sluggish and wanted to live a more active and fulfilling life.

I had been overweight/chubby for almost all of my childhood and teenage years. I knew I wanted to change the way I looked but I always lacked clarity on how to start and would find some excuse to start later. Like any other fat/skinny person, I was body-shamed and bullied all the time. All this would add up to me feeling insecure about myself.

2. How did you accomplish your goals?

I started by setting realistic and achievable milestones and I stayed committed to them. It was a slow and steady process but the results were worth it. I also prepared a workout and a diet plan for myself from all the information that I could gather online and followed it for about 7-8 months.

3. Training routine that helped you achieve your goals

At the beginning of my transformation (2020), I stuck to only at-home workouts. I would do follow-along HIIT workouts. Once the lockdown ended, I started going to the gym and did strength training which I have been loving since.

4. Which supplements did you take?

I believe in getting most of my nutrients from whole foods but I did incorporate some basic supplements like whey protein and a multivitamin into my diet to support my training.

5. What challenges did you face during your transformation?

I faced moments of self-doubt and plateaus but I reminded myself of my “why” and stayed motivated. Nutrition discipline was also a big challenge but I learned to enjoy healthier foods.

6. Suggestion for future transformers

My suggestion for future transformers is to set clear, realistic goals, stay consistent, and don’t compare your journey to others. Everyone’s path is unique; so focus on your progress. Progress takes time and it’s important to focus on your growth.
