GRATITUDE : A year ago, I wasn't just carrying extra weight. I was carrying grief. After losing my dad, I lost a part of myself. The mornings became harder. The motivation disappeared. It was easier to stay down than to get up.

Then came @laxminarayan_0414 Every other morning at 6 AM, my phone would ring. Some days I wanted to ignore it. Some days I almost did. But he never stopped calling.

He didn't just train my body. He rebuilt my discipline. He reminded me that healing isn't a feeling, it's a decision you make over and over again. From 95 kilos to maybe 84 today...
Somewhere along the way, I stopped chasing the number on the scale. Now I chase the man I see becoming in the mirror. Every workout, every painful rep, every "one more set" was never just about fitness. It was about becoming stronger than the version of me that grief had created.
@lets_trainwithlaxminarayan04 Thank you for believing in me on the days I didn't believe in myself. I'm not done yet.
I'll keep showing up.
I'll keep getting stronger.
I'll keep becoming someone you'd be proud to train...
...and someone my dad would be proud to call his son.
Forever grateful, coach. ❤️💪
