Laletan is a person who thinks that everything is positive. No matter how low we are, if we talk to Laleton for five minutes, everything will change and it will be fine. He has such positive energy. Nothing hesitates.
Many people, including celebrities, are very concerned about fitness these days. But, about 10 years ago, “Fitness…? What is that?” Malayalees were the ones asking. At the time a young man called Aeneas Antony was brave enough to choose fitness as a career. Despite the teasing from his country and family, Ainous refused to give’ the best for his passion. Ainus felt the joy of conquering the world when he finally reached that goal.
Today, Ainas Antony is a fitness trainer for many inside and outside the country. Ainez is a star among celebrities. Superstar Mohanlal, Jayasuriya, Vishnu Unnikrishnan, Vipin George and MG Sreekumar have been trained by Aines.
Introduction to Fitness Trainer
He has been active in sports since childhood. If you look at it 10 years ago, there was no career called fitness here. Schools have PT sir. I wanted to be like that. PT sir in most schools may not be physically fit. I wanted to get the children I was teaching and training fit. As I grew up, I started to learn more about fitness. Realized that fitness has a bright future here. He was confident that he could make fitness a profession. I saw it not as a job, but as my passion. I found joy in coaching someone and watching them change. After that, fitness was chosen as a career.
I wanted to be a fitness instructor
Many people wonder what they will do after college. My father is a policeman so he is fit. But due to busy work, I don’t get time to exercise. I have seen many people like that. I can’t stop working out. So I went looking for a job that gave importance to fitness. Nothing was right. I found out about a fitness trainer when I started learning more about it. More people were seen in foreign countries such as the United States. There are famous fitness trainers who earn between 10 lakh to 5 lakhs per month. I learned that there are people who have made it a career as a fitness trainer even 10 years ago. I was sure that this career would grow in India in the future as well. So I focused more on fitness. We had the confidence that if we have passion we can succeed in the field we do. This is how he came to this field.
The difficulties encountered
Today I train people in every continent and every country. Apart from China and Greenland, people are trained online and offline in many countries such as Australia, the UK, Canada, France and Germany. But many difficulties have been overcome to get to where we are today.
10 years ago I chose this as a career and went to Bombay first. At that time, people were not interested in fitness in Kerala. Many famous gyms in Bombay have asked me if I can get an internship to become a trainer. There are famous gym brands that I’m not good at. One thing was decided that day. It does not work under a gym or fitness club. There was a saying that my name will be my brand.
When you first say you are a trainer, people ask what kind of training and what your job is. Because they don’t know about it. It was time to ask if this was a job. There was opposition at home too. Like all Malayali families, my son insisted on a government job. But I wasn’t ready to give up. Because this is my life. When I started venturing into the fitness trainer profession, my family also came to believe.
Many people in my family also made fun of me. But the children of many of the relatives who were teased then want to become trainers like me.
Get to know Mohanlal
I was a gym instructor in a five star hotel in Kochi. I will train many people from abroad who come there. A famous businessman from Kerala also came there. I trained him. In 6 months it has changed a lot. He is the one who says he can introduce Laleton. I thought he was lying. But I was told to come one day to train Laleton. It was during the movie Lucifer. This is the first time a celebrity has been trained. That too Mohanlal. At first there was tension but slowly it changed.
About Mohanlal’s practice
Laletan is a good fit and flexible. He is a person who does not hesitate to do anything. It is enough for us to say one thing. He will do the same. He is always active. He is a positive thinker. No matter how low we are, if we talk to Laleton for five minutes, everything will change and it will be fine. He has such positive energy. Nothing hesitates. If you are told to do an exercise 10 times, try to do 12 times. Any exercise will do. Good knowledge of all the exercises. Always find time for exercise. Set aside at least 40 minutes for exercise every day. He never stops exercising even when he is abroad. Text me and tell me things.
Mohanlal’s diet
Laletan is a foodie. He doesn’t like to control anything. Mine is the all-you-can-eat-anything way to get fit. But just watch the size. Lalettan knows how to control the amount of food. Don’t over do anything. Eat less of your favorite food. So he doesn’t need a diet. Even on shooting sets, Lalettan eats only the amount he needs. Never overdose. A glutton is someone who only eats what he likes.
The secret of Mohanlal’s health
Laletan is very health conscious. There is a clear understanding of what to eat and what not to eat. That is the secret of Laleton’s health. Everything in a day, from what to eat at this time, what time to eat, how long to sleep, etc. He doesn’t have a lifestyle like eat when he feels like this, sleep when he feels like this. There is good discipline in everything. That is why he can work and exercise. That’s why it’s so energetic. Sometimes work out with me. He works out with the same energy as me.
Malayali attitude towards fitness
Malayalis are changing when it comes to fitness. However, many people still don’t know much about exercise. People keep asking me if going to the gym will make them lose weight or cause hair loss. A few more things are changing now. Celebrities also play an important role in it. With Prithviraj, Mohanlal, Tovino Thomas etc talking more about exercise, a lot has changed. People have come to feel that the physical and health benefits of exercise are good for the body. With actors and actresses paying more attention to fitness, there is a further change among the youth.
Fitness Tips from Aeneas Antony
I will exercise for 1-2 hours a day. 30 minutes will do it on busy days. Many of us only exercise for special occasions like weddings or when the doctor tells us to lose weight. As soon as we get up in the morning, we brush our teeth, take a bath and eat. From my point of view, fitness is when you can turn exercise into a daily routine. We should not chase exercise when we have a health problem. Exercise should be practiced from a young age, even if it is a child. I don’t smoke or drink alcohol. I’m not interested in it because I care about fitness. No matter what anyone says, I have never tried it. That is what the current generation needs. Making fitness a part of life can change drinking, smoking and drug use among young people.
Awareness of fitness
Young people get addicted to drugs because they don’t give importance to sports or fitness. They are not taught much about it in schools. Everything else will be taught to children. Children should be taught about fitness, exercise and health. If they are taught at school level about the dangers of smoking, alcohol and drugs in life and how they affect their health, they will not use them. There is no awareness of it in schools. If this system changes, this will decrease
