Skip exercise routinely? Try this trick

“This video serves as a quick reminder that you don’t need a lot of time to fit in exercise,” Rujuta shared in her post. “Today, I was at a hotel without any equipment, and I had to rush for an event. But I also know that my body doesn’t feel right if I skip my workout. So, I decided to do three quick Surya Namaskars to get my body moving and feel energised.”

Talking about why she chose Surya Namaskar, Rujuta explained, “They are a complete exercise. They allow you to stretch, help you stay stable, strengthen your legs, and also build stamina. So, if you really don’t have the time, just do this trick, three Surya Namaskars and you’ll stay fit.”
