Getting fit with Zareen – How it started

After undergoing c-section for delivering her son, Zareen decided to take up core training, primarily to recover her postpartum paunch. And the tryst to find the right workouts and diet for herself  led Zareen to educate herself on fitness. As a person who believes in ‘Do before you preach’, she worked hard on herself first and won back the once lost six pack abs in just 5 months of her c-section . Zareen got hitched to fitness so much that she decided to take it up as her one and only way to reach out people who need guidance and support in the fitness arena.

'A woman with abs is a woman with willpower ' read this somewhere. I think it just takes consistency , basic exercises done consistently combined with good clean eating . And you're not going to get abs without developing other muscles in your body. Remember you train the whole body .
