“Health is the greatest possession!” Lao Tzu, (better known as Laozi) – the famous Chinese Philosopher had said this quote. Well, by then he might have realised how people run after gaining wealth & materialistic gains while on the other hand royally ignore the importance to stay fit.
Alas! most of us still take health for granted. Good health is still largely an insignificant task or a lower priority work which often takes a backseat with more ‘important’ things of life to be done. We forget that good health is the core and every other thing is woven around it. The #HumFitTohIndiaFit Challenge began when Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore an ace Olympic Silver Medal winner shooting champion and now cabinet minister in Indian government with independent charge for Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports posted his video doing pushups in his office on twitter with the hashtag. He challenged celebrities and commoners in a novel initiative for people to get health conscious, maintain right weight & stay fit.
Here are few snippets of how celebs displayed their support for this fitness challenge:
Good health is a combination of a healthy physical body and healthy mental self. When one talks about staying fit, to maintain a right weight becomes very important.
