New journey beginning

Hey, what's up guys? Welcome to the new series of the videos, and I really wanted to thank each one of you who have been following me from so long. Today I want to give you a quick intro about why I'm doing what I am doing, what is the new surprises are waiting for you. I'm gonna reveal it. So first of all, my name is Arvind Padmaraju. I come from a village called Tirupati, and currently I'm living in Dubai from last 9 years, and I work as a head of IT full-time. I'm a father of 2 kids and a lovely wife, and that's a little background. So coming back to what is the new thing which I'm trying to come up— so before we're going to go there, and I really wanted to introduce myself about my own fitness journey. So I was, um, been struggling to lose weight and keep gaining this weight for more than, I think, 10 times from 2003 to 2019, until and unless I found the the right approach with the help of my coaches and my mentors and all other the learnings which I did. And with that help, I went from being 102 kgs of obese and overweight with a lot of health challenges, back issues, lethargic, and having, um, a sedentary lifestyle, literally going through so many challenges with body shaming, not able to wear proper clothes, and feeling uncomfortable in presenting myself whatnot. And one fine day, I got the realization that there's one funny incident happened with me when we, myself and my wife, we went for a movie theater. The ticket collector looking at me and looking at my wife, he asked me, is your daughter is 18 plus? Because we went for, we went for one of the Telugu movie. That particular incident is completely blown away from my mind. I was so sad and frustrated that, you know, how can you call my wife as a husband? And that was a reaction on that ticket collector. But I never knew that that was a life-changing moment in my life, that I have taken a full responsibility that whatever happens, I'm going to take this as a challenge and live like if it has been for rest of your life. So that is how my journey started, and I really, really wanted to acknowledge some of my mentors who helped me during this journey. Especially Sandeep and Balasar and also, um, the whole Mindvalley team. And, um, not only that, and also all the learnings what I got through INFS as well as ISSA certified nutritionist course what I did, fitness coach as well as, um, fitness trainer. So all these courses also helped me. And not only that, I have continued to learn about my own, uh, I come continue to improve my own, uh, knowledge around the fitness and nutrition. I also did the Mindvalley Hollow Body Coach, and I really want to grateful for Ronan, Ajit, and also Vishen Lakhiani for creating amazing. So what is my whole discovery of last 10 to, uh, 12 years of my struggle was I was always focusing on unsustainable ways of following a restrictive diet, following that regressive workouts, never be able to understand my body, my mind, and what exactly really I need, what my body wants to make it, what my body wants to create for. So that's when, when I started learning about all these things, what I found one of the most interesting aspect is, like me, there are so many working parents and dads are struggling with fixing their weight for once for all. That's when, when I started working about not only on nutrition science, I also started learning about human psychology, understanding about We are able to brush our teeth every single day without a fail, but we know that health and our fitness is most important, which is a center point of our life. For every single thing what you have in your life will be waste of use if you don't take care of it. But still, why we are not able to be consistent with the whatever the result what we got? And there's one of the survey says that, you know, more than 80% of the people, they regain within span of 3 to 5 years of a time. And then when I understood, which is a little deeper, the only way you can attain a fitness as part of your lifestyle is by building a routine or a habits. It has to go into our life as part of a lifestyle. Until and unless you don't make that, nothing will happen. So that's when I started helping some of the people by creating sustainable habits which I can follow, which I can sustain. So there are a couple of pillars which I will be talking more detail about the following videos. And what I understood this whole journey is your psychology is 90% of the thing, and which dictates how you can take some of your actions towards following a diet and exercise, and also making them as a sustainable habits, and also focusing on some of the other areas which are very fundamental and foundational for your overall health to take it in a sustainable way. So we're going to dive deep into all those things in the future videos. And this is a quick introduction, and I'm actually in a mission to help all the busy dads who thinks that they don't have a time to go for a long hours of a gym or long hours of a workout, or maybe they don't have a time to follow a restrictive diets. I want to really, really help them how they can lose with a simplified approach, Ultimate Habits Formula, which I'm going to reveal in my following videos. So not only me getting transformed, more than 428+ busy dads and working professionals are already transformed by using the same method. So I'm really, really excited to start this journey. I will be coming more often and I will be also asking you a lot of questions. What is your current pain points and how some of the strategies which I used for myself, which you can also use it and get benefited out of it. That's what is all about it. And one strong vision what I'm working on, uh, working on it is if every single parent or every single dad who is watching this, if you take a responsibility of not only fixing your health, building this as a strong foundation for you and building that as a sustainable habit for you, a sustainable lifestyle for you, more than anything, your family will bless you. Your family will be most benefited people because the habits what you're going to build is going to be your kids also follow you as a role model. They follow on your own footprints. So indirectly what you're doing is your transformation leads to next 5 generations of your family is going to follow on your footprints. So that is where I want to actually educate every single busy dad, even with 15 minutes of your time, that is all you need for you to have a minimum dose of a workout and 3 to 5 days of a workout and simplified techniques how you can master your mindset, how you can simplify your habit formation so that whatever you're going to build during this journey is going to stay with you for rest of your life. So I'm going to deep dive into all those topics. I'm super excited to start this journey. If you are really interested to be part of this zone and be part of this series, I want you to type in the below this video, I am a fit dad and I'm going to be role model for my kids. So I want you to type that and let's begin this journey. Thank you guys, have a great day. I wish you be a role model, be a super high hero for your own kids. See you, bye-bye, love you all.
