Milind Soman ,is one of the most fittest men alive today.From being one of the earliest ‘super models’ of the Indian fashion industry to working out with the vigour of a twenty year old till date, despite being 54-years-old, Milind is the ultimate inspiration for many young generation like us.
Workout Daily
In an interview to IANS Milind said, “If you know me at all, you know I love to work out and run — and I personally believe this habit of keeping my body active has helped me stay fit. A lot of people think aging slows your fitness and endurance levels but take it from me – it is the opposite! Fitness and an active lifestyle slow down aging. I started running long distances when I was 40 years old, and I personally believe you are never too old to challenge yourself. Once you start respecting your body and work towards keeping it healthy proactively, the results will amaze you. The only way to jump into it is to simply begin with one step!” Dedicating even 5 minutes each to working out can go a long way in increasing the metabolism of your body. Even basic stretching, yoga asana, planks and stair climbing can help your body on the path to fitness. He went on to say, “Find exercises that you can enjoy that help you maintain your basic muscular strength, joint flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance. Once you have done that, exercising won’t feel like a task. You will enjoy it with enthusiasm.”
Self-care
This includes the care of your body as well your mind. One needs to take the right measure to achieve their goals and follow their resolutions with dedication. More importantly, one has to let the body and mind grow at its own pace. “The key is to spend a few minutes each day to do what is necessary to enable you to live your life to the fullest, every moment without fear. Keep moving,” said Milind Soman in the same interview.
Hydrate yourself
Water has so many benefits for the body, the most significant being its ability to flush out unwanted toxins from the body. Aside from drinking water, it is also important to take care of your body’s other hydration needs, which can help in slowing down aging. Milind advises that using natural moisturisers helps in hydrating one’s skin as well. In the IANS interview he added, “There are many natural ingredients that can be found in any kitchen that can make your skin feel fabulous! This helps in reducing fine lines, giving your skin a plumper appearance. Besides taking care of your skin’s health from the outside, it is also important to nourish it with the right food, to take care of it from within.”
