Lt Cdr Upendra Prasad

Who wrote this

Lt Cdr Upendra Prasad (Retd.)

Fourteen years in the Indian Navy. No fitness background walking in, no mentor, no one to copy. What follows is what he actually built — the long way, with food, training, sleep and time, no shortcuts and no expiry date. He writes it down so his son, Avyaansh, never has to start from zero.

“I am not your proof that it’s easy. I am your proof that it’s possible.”

For Avyaansh. 🔱
