Q&A with Subrata Das:

What is your fitness mantra for today’s generation?

In today’s generation people are more into gadgets. They keep searching for fancy fitness workouts for their own lifestyle transformations without knowing the basics of Exercise Science. They do not question how their physical ability would adapt the same in our climate and available nutrition resources. My advice to everyone is to join a Gym/ Fitness Studio and create a solid basic foundation through a certified fitness trainer for a better day to day lifestyle.

How would you recommend anyone to start the process and progress towards their fitness goals?

At first one should identify their necessity and requirement for being fit. Secondly they should get a medical clearance from a doctor to begin the workouts. They should be mentally and physically positive for a disciplined routine, because without following a disciplined routine or lifestyle, one would not be able to achieve their goals. Also please look for a proper fitness center which has the basic equipment and certified trainers.

What type of food do you think students and working professionals should avoid?

Both students and working professionals should avoid fast food and processed food and focus more on clean nutritional diet.

For how many hours should one workout in a day?

For an average individual, 40 minutesto 50 minutes a day would be ideal to get positive results.
