Excited about Health and Fitness

Homemakers in Thiruvananthapuram are breaking stereotypes and embracing fitness like never before. After the lockdown was lifted, there was a noticeable shift in fitness trends, especially among women, who flocked to gyms to break free from the slump of being stuck at home.

Among this diverse group, homemakers are standing out with their brimming enthusiasm. They are trying everything from boxing to Kalari and yoga, making a statement by prioritizing their own well-being and finding joy in the process.

Joseph Lawrence, owner of Zero Fitness Performance Studio, emphasizes that fitness is not just about building muscles but also about increasing flexibility, stamina, balance, and mental well-being. The studio offers a comprehensive approach that includes weightlifting, yoga, Kalari, martial arts, outdoor workouts, and meditation, ensuring that individuals feel fully fit both physically and mentally.

Women like Joyce Varghese, Maryam John, and Rebecca Fenn are sharing their inspiring stories of how fitness has transformed their lives. Joyce, a 54-year-old grandmother, prioritizes her daily gym visits for the joy it brings her. Maryam, a 60-year-old retired engineer, emphasizes the importance of holistic wellness through working out. Rebecca, a 25-year-old gym-goer, finds empowerment in feeling strong and capable.

With more women embracing fitness and forming a supportive community at the gym, the stereotypes surrounding women and fitness are gradually being shattered. These homemakers are proving that age, gender, or societal norms should not limit one’s pursuit of health and well-being.
