I dint claim *I worked with* I said *I work with*

There is a big difference. It’s simple English right? @ndtv @VishnuNDTV pic.twitter.com/gP74awgYCY
Nithin Kamath had been engaged in joint workouts and races, Kumar emphasized that he knows Kamath beyond the superficial judgments made on social media.
He clarified that fitness comprises specific physical abilities like endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, and speed.
The gap between being healthy and looking fit is a modern-day confusion caused by social media.

Fitness is important and can be achieved through specific physical activities.
Health considers various dimensions of well-being and is achieved by sustainable long-term practices.…
Contrary to the belief that athletes or celebrities represent the pinnacle of health and fitness, Kumar debunked this notion. He highlighted that even individuals who appear fit may not necessarily enjoy holistic health. Factors such as nutrition, stress, sleep quality, and underlying health conditions significantly contribute to one’s overall health status.
Kumar’s post underscored the importance of adopting a balanced approach to both fitness and health. While fitness plays a role in contributing to overall health, it does not guarantee it. He conveyed a clear message: finding equilibrium between fitness and health is crucial.
The insightful thread shared a few hours ago, has already garnered over 42,000 views. Dilip Kumar gained social media attention for his post about sending a cold mail to Nithin Kamath and securing funds. Both Kumar and Kamath had participated in the half-Ironman competition in Goa, showcasing their commitment to a holistic approach to well-being.
Has anyone noticed this.
