30 Transformational Inspiring Stories. Story No 25. Happy Sunday to all.When I write these stories,I look for something unique and special that is different and ofcourse inspiring.We at Xersize have supported many women to totally transform themselves.The stories I cover everyday is of a woman of substance,someone who can move and motivate others. As I type this,Radha Venkatraman's image flashes in my head,her bindi,her jhumakas,her long chain and above all the brightening warm smile.Always smiling,connecting with everyone,has a word of praise for all and so beautiful in her being is what Radha is.A senior citizen,turning 61 years in a few days,retired and living her life now as she says post retirement.She was a bank manager for Indian Overseas Bank,worked long hours and had a hectic schedule.At home,living in a joint family and cooking both meals left no time for self.Her day used to start at 4.30 am and go on till 11pm.Till the age of 58 years,she had never seen what a gym looks like and had never exercised.After she retired,she decided to get fit and start exercising.So at 59 years Radha started with a lower body toning class thrice a week and as her stamina increased started with Zumba.Radha weighed 80 kgs then,now after a year is 73 kgs.Now she does hardcore weight training,alongwith Zumba and lowerbody toning class.Her fitness levels have enhanced tremendously,stamina,strenghth and flexibility all increased.Body fat percentage gone down and mental vitality at its peak.Radha feels homely in the gym and loves working out.If she misses her workout there is a feeling of incompleteness.Her speciality is her warmth,the love and compassion she spreads,her ability at 60 to dance on the latest numbers,move and groove with enthusiasm and passion.Hats off to Radha!!!Her mantra is"Irrespective of your Age,Find your passion..Do not wait for life to happen to you.Create it and live the Moment.Live NOW."
