In this promotional video, fitness and lifestyle coach Arvind (Aravind) Padmaraju shares his personal transformation story and outlines his mission to help working professionals and future generations adopt healthy, disease‑free lifestyles without sacrificing social life. He recounts a tragic loss of his wife in 2013, a subsequent period of weight gain, and a pivotal moment at a movie theater that spurred his determination to become fit for his family. Over the next years he experimented with many diets and workouts, eventually realizing that lasting change hinges on three pillars: behavioral habits, knowledge of nutrition and activity, and the right mindset. By 2020 he reduced his body fat from 35 % to 6 % and placed in the top 4 of a 40,000‑person fitness challenge. He now offers a free one‑to‑one consultation to help others break the yo‑yo weight cycle, develop a sustainable fitness lifestyle, and become role models for their children. Viewers are invited to type “I am interested” to receive the consultation.

Hi, my name is Arvind Padmaraju. I'm a fitness and lifestyle coach on a mission to transform 100K working professionals to live a healthy, happy, and disease-free lifestyle, that too without sacrificing your social life. And I'm a longer time— my longer-term vision is to create a new breed of healthy and fit kids. That will only happen as parents, you and me, take the decision and work on our own health and fitness, build that lifestyle too in our own life, so that they can look at us as a role model look at us, take inspiration, and we become a role model for them to build their own healthy and fit lifestyle. And coming back to my own story, so I have been working in 20 years on IT, and last 20 years I've been gaining and losing weight more than 8 to 9 times. And I followed multiple diets, multiple strict workout regimes, and finally what I understood, it is something to do with your behavioral habits, it is something to do with the knowledge what you have, and it is something to do with has a right mindset. So, why I'm doing what I'm doing is, in 2013, I had the biggest tragedy moment in my life. I lost my wife in a train accident. That particular day, I had two thoughts in my mind. One is, I want to give up life, and second thing is, I want to create impact in people's life. But I was not knowing that day what is my mission and purpose. But in 2016, there is a funny incident because I moved on with my life and again got married. Because of this vicious cycle, I gained again my weight and I was whooping 102 kgs. And me and my wife, we went for a movie theater and the ticket collector asked me, looking at my wife, is it your daughter? Because she looks very thin and I was looking a bulky man. And that actually put me into firefighting mode that I wanted to do whatever it takes to become and be a fit husband in front of her.
And I started working my own health and fitness from now on, that time onwards. And in year 2020, I got the right guidance and I have been taken my body fat percentage from from 35% to 6%, and I competed in one of the biggest fitness challenges, and I came top 4 out of 40,000 people. And what I understood with this journey is it is more to do with your behavioral habits and what you are programming into your subconscious mind and what the knowledge you have about how your diet and the overall activity works. If you have these 3 things, you can build and you can focus on changing these lifestyle habits on a day-to-day basis, which will give you fitness as a lifestyle. If you are one of them who wants to break this vicious cycle of losing and gaining weight, and if you want to have that right mindset so that you make fitness as a lifestyle, and you want to become your own coach so that you can help your family and your kids to bring their own fitness and health into their own lifestyle, then I am coming and giving you a free one-to-one consultation call. And you can book the consultation call and we will go through your own pain points and see how I can help you and give you a breakthrough and give you a plan how you can take it forward, your fitness journey.
