As far as my workout is concerned, I am doing cardio and muscle training for at least three hours every day. It's going to be one tough week for me. I have no option but to hold myself back. Being fit has always been my mantra."It was survival drama film, a call center employee who gets trapped in his apartment room without food, water, and electricity.
