I had even started to consume the proteins that I needed to start building muscle and looking bulkier. But, I cheated. All the time. There was always room for coffee and coke in my diet. Not to mention tons of junk food. It was the latter that really took a toll on my health, leading to extreme digestive issues. It was so bad that all I could eat was plain khichadi for several months. This was in 2017 and I remember feeling disappointed with myself all the time.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">Here I was unable to jog for 15 minutes straight or even do a few push-ups correctly. I rejoined the gym in 2018 but the real wakeup call came when I tried to do my push-ups and failed miserably.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Give_us_a_glimpse_of_your_lifestyle_before_you_actually_got_hooked_onto_a_fitness_routine\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Give us a glimpse of your lifestyle before you actually got hooked onto a fitness routine\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">Let me tell you that I am a complete sweet tooth. So sugar was a huge part of my diet. Be two desserts each day or 2 packets of biscuits, I just need that sugar rush to function. So, this was possibly the hardest thing for me to give up. Like I said, I always wanted to be fit. This is why I even went on a high protein diet when I first joined the gym.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">As expected, I did develop muscles fast. But all the junk that I included in between my meals had a bad effect on my digestion. My stomach was completely messed up and I could only eat certain bland foods. All the muscle that I developed for the last six years disappeared before I realized.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">But, for me, it was not just about how I looked physically. I hated the fact that I was completely drained at the end of each day. For the most part of\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif;\">the\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">day\u00a0I felt lazy and lethargic. All I can blame this on is my sugar intake at that time. And the worst part is that I always knew that these foods were bad for me, but continued eating them anyway.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"row\">\r\n<div class=\"col-12\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.healthkart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/diet-table.jpg\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<div class=\"hk-content-image\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_your_typical_exercise_routine_now\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">What is your typical exercise routine now?\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">It was in the year 2018 that I started going to the gym again.
