Hello Everyone!

If you can dance in the rain without getting sick or crawl under the bed with ease, to get your kid’s favorite toy, you are fit. A muscular body or lean figure may not necessarily be “fit“! Fitness is being well, performing your daily activities well and thinking well!

Here is an open challenge for everyone who wants to get fit but do not know where to start. Surya Namaskar or Sun Salutation has multiple benefits for the body and mind.

5 Reasons You Should Do Surya Namaskar Everyday

♥ Eliminates Toxins

♥ Improves Blood Circulation

♥ Triggers Weight loss

♥ Improves Flexibility

♥ Tones the Entire Body

Need More Motivation?

Learn the math!

🙂 1 Pound of Fat = 3500 calories 🙂

∴ If you burn 500 calories per day, in a week you will lose a pound of fat!

🙂 1 Surya Namaskar burns 13.90 calories 🙂

🙂 20 minutes of Surya Namaskar burns around 250 calories 🙂

Given the fact that more calories are burnt as we proceed through each set. Isn’t this a great way to lose those extra pounds?
