It all started with a dream. The dream to carry six pack fueled with determination, discipline and hard work. Compete with yourself and be patient and focused, No one can stop you reach your goal the way I reached mine.
Why you decided to Transform?
It was my dream to present myself to my wife with a six packs on her birthday. I wanted to be fit & healthy and had a passion to transfer myself against all odds from obese couch potato to 6 pack hunk.
Moreover, its fun to wear confidence, not a T-shirt on a hot summer day. I believe it's my only one life, and I have to make the most of it.
How did you accomplish your Goal:
It was sheer will power, determination, discipline and hard work. I followed strict diet plan coupled with customized workout program, Drank liters and liters of water and took extra care to ensure that my body has all the nutrition it needs after hard workout.
Being software professional and a fitness freak together is not easy. After stressful work, I would go home, have breakfast and then hit the gym an hour later, workout till 9 pm and will have boiled chicken with salad. I would have whey with milk to call it a day.
