Milind Soman highlights importance of mental fitness, says 'trained mind is limitless'

Milind Soman exemplifies fitness and has a massive fan following on social media for his posts detailing his lifestyle and healthy choices. The actor-model has time and again motivated his fans by captioning his posts with his thoughts on the importance of maintaining a fit lifestyle. Keeping with the recent focus on mental health, Milind Soman wrote a note, tagging it as Milind Somwar, gave Monday motivation on the equal importance of both, mental and physical fitness, to train the body along with a picture of himself with arms outstretched sideways in exercise. 

He wrote, "Physical fitness is the body's ability to withstand physical stress. Mental fitness is the mind's ability to withstand mental and emotional stress. At any age, the body's ability can be developed to withstand the stress of a 100m run or a 42km marathon. Similarly the mind's abilities can be developed to adapt to and make the best of any situation. The trained body can do almost anything that we ask of it. The trained mind is limitless. The benefit of sustained effort is unimaginable."[sic]
