Fitness culture here starts at an early age. Families encourage children to spend time in akharas instead of in front of television screens or mobile phones, believing discipline and physical strength shape character from childhood itself. (Image-Scroll)
Diet plays a major role in maintaining the village’s reputation for strength. Wrestlers largely follow nutritious vegetarian meals filled with milk, curd, ghee, dry fruits, and protein-rich foods while avoiding smoking and alcohol completely. (Image-Scroll)
