Ankit Gupta

I believe everyone should commit to at least 45 minutes of physical activity daily, whether it’s working out, walking, playing a game, dancing, or practising martial arts. Just like brushing your teeth, make it a routine. I’ve seen the positive changes in my body since making this a priority in my life, even when work got busy. It’s something I now consistently follow and encourage others to do for better health.

My health hack has been focusing on both my physical and mental well-being. I’ve made personal growth a priority, always working to strike a balance between body and mind. Regular workouts have been essential in my routine, helping me stay grounded and energized through both good and tough times. This balance is my go-to practice for overall well-being.

Other than regular physical activity, a health hack that works for me is cold water therapy. I do ice therapy and massages for my face and neck to reduce puffiness, improve skin tone, and minimize wrinkles. These practices, along with overall body care, have become a priority for me.

Isha Malviya

I’ve prioritized nurturing a healthy mind and cultivating strong internal well-being. For me, good mental health is important for my overall health. I meditate daily which helps me stay centred, listen to music as it is my stress buster and connect with family, especially chat with my daadi as it uplifts my mood. I learnt this lesson from my father and it shaped my perspective: to maintain a healthy body, one must first foster a healthy mind.

Over time, I’ve shifted my focus to weight training and have stopped doing cardio. As we age, we lose muscle, and by 50-60, muscle becomes your best friend. People who look 30 at that age often do weight training. I complement it with spontaneous dancing and try to stay active even when indoors. I also have a fun routine: every hour, I do 10 squats, no matter where I am or who I’m with. It’s a simple practice that keeps me active without straining my body.
