Sai Harsha is a Human Resource Management Professional, Dr Pilli Srikanth has an MD in Homeopathy and is Director and Consultant at Homogenesis Homeopathy chain of Clinics and Dr Ashwin Aiyangar is a Consultant Nephrologist & Kidney Transplant Physician at Apollo Hospitals, Secunderabad.
“Apart from regular training in the three disciplines, we need to concentrate equally on leading a disciplined lifestyle and focus on proper nutrition and strength training as well�?, says Sai Harsha.
Age is just a number and if determined, one can explore one’s strength and inner potential at any age, commented Dr Pilli Srikanth. Dr Ashwin is of the opinion that the human body is the best machine made till date.
It is extremely malleable and can be moulded the way one desires. The only magic ingredients necessary are scientific systems of training, persistence, dedication, and discipline.
