Blame the fast pace life that we are living in or the growing level of responsibility that comes with your job profile, life is tough and our health/fitness often becomes a victim of it.

What is the point of having a seven to eight-figure salary if your body is not intact? What is the point of having those millions in your bank account when your fitness level keeps deteriorating? When the work pressure increases, the cheat days increase, our will to hit the gym reduces and our body flab increases. Hence it is important to get a little active and add those basic gym and fitness gadgets at your home.
