Fitness enthusiast Sunaina Roshan is back with another wellness tip on Instagram. This time, she is encouraging people not to skip one of the most overlooked parts of a workout - stretching. "It's easy to skip this part, it doesn't feel as exciting as the actual workout," Ms Roshan writes in the caption. "But this routine has helped me feel stronger, move better and stay consistent, especially on days when my body feels a little stiff," she adds.
Ms Roshan shares a video demonstrating her routine, designed to improve upper-body mobility, enhance flexibility and ease stiffness. She encourages those who often skip stretching to make it a regular part of their workouts.
"It doesn't take much, but it adds a lot," she says, adding, "If you've been brushing past your warm-ups or cool-downs, maybe give this a try and stay."

The video begins with Ms Roshan performing shoulder rotations using a stretcher band to open up the shoulder joints. This movement is especially helpful for people dealing with tight shoulders, as it improves mobility and flexibility.
Another stretch in the routine is designed to relieve back pain. In this exercise, Ms Roshan lies down on a mat with one leg straight and the other bent at the knee, crossing it over to the opposite side. With her arms extended on either side, she gently twists her upper body. This helps alleviate stiffness in the lower back.
Ms Roshan then does half crunches using a foam roller placed under her upper back, followed by a gentle arm stretch to cool down and restore flexibility.
Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan's sister, Sunaina Roshan, continues to inspire many with her dedication to wellness and her openness about reversing Grade 3 fatty liver through consistent effort and lifestyle changes.

He begins his journey by cycling to the dock on a foldable bike, carrying his boat along with him. Once he reaches the shoreline, he launches into the river and rows his way to the office.

At what age should you first get your cholesterol checked? Cardiologist reveals: 'If you have a strong family history…'

Cholesterol is a type of lipid that your body needs to function. It forms part of your cell membranes, helps your liver make bile and serves as a building block for hormones. However, the problem arises when you have high levels of LDL cholesterol in your blood. This can lead to an increased risk of heart disease. Therefore, early detection is important, as it can often lead to you taking up life-changing measures. Most people check their cholesterol only when they have a problem. But the question is – when should one check their cholesterol for the first time?(Image by Freepik) Also Read | Cardiothoracic surgeon explains why young people are at risk of heart attack, cardiac arrest; can it be prevented? So, when should you get your cholesterol checked? What is the correct age to get it done for the first time? In an Instagram video post on July 22, Dr Naveen Bhamri, MD, DM (cardiology), revealed the right age to get your cholesterol checked for the first time. He wrote, 'Most people check their cholesterol only when they have a problem…But the question is – when should one check their cholesterol for the first time?' Let's find out what the doctor said. At what age should you first check your cholesterol levels? According to the cardiologist, the general recommendation suggests that a person should get their cholesterol checked at the age of 20 years, and it should be done with a fasting lipid profile. What if the data comes back normal? He said that if your tests show a normal number, then you should repeat the tests after 4-6 years. If you have a strong family history of heart disease, then get your cholesterol checked as early as possible.

The cardiologist stressed that if you come under the high-risk category, for instance, you have a strong history of heart disease in your family, you have diabetes, you have high blood pressure, you are obese, you smoke regularly, you have PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome), or you lead a sedentary lifestyle, then you should get your cholesterol checked as early as possible. He added that Indian guidelines say that one should get their first lipid profile done as early as the age of 12 years if they are obese and have a strong family history. 'So, lifestyle changes at an early age can prevent heart disease later,' Dr Bhamri added in the end.
