Mumbai's traffic jams leave you more conscious of your surroundings than Buddhist monks. Labourers working at construction sites or on civic projects, their lean, glistening bodies wearing little else than bermudas and a racer-back ganji, leave you wondering why the studs who amble to hi-tech gyms each morning, wouldn't make the half-way fitness mark these guys conquer every day.
There's a guy in town who seems to have pondered over the irony long enough to decide he's going to build the health consciousu00a0 Mumbaikar's stamina by turning him into a mazdoor. Personal trainer, massage therapist, yoga instructor and proprietor of RAPTfx (Remedial Approach Personal Training-Enhancing performance through fitness), an Australian-based firm, Prameet Kotak, is set to mimic the everyday life of a manual labourer so that you can acquire the to-die-for muscles these guys sport matter-of-factly.
