Rohit Maiya: From Fat to Fit and Inspiring the Future
Not so long ago, Rohit Maiya was hardly a shadow of what he is today. Thanks to perseverance and a bit of grit to face adversity head-on, he successfully shed weight and got fit. In the process, he discovered a passion for running.
Maiya shares his personal story here. Rohit Maiya is associated with Infyni in more than one way. As an SAT trainer, he coaches Infyni’s students to ace the SAT/ACT preparatory tests.
His Classes Are Different
“Make your classes fun and engaging, and you can encourage any young adult to develop a passion for academics,” Maiya says. The foundational courses Maiya teaches cover the fundamentals in Math and English. These are the cornerstones for a successful future in any career.
Maiya coaches kids as young as 8 years old, but the approach is different for that age group. It’s more like an interactive discussion around algebra, gradually scaling up to equations and calculations.
It Was Only a Matter of How
When Infyni learned about Maiya’s training for the Ladakh Marathon, it was already late summer. We realized this was a great opportunity to support a member of the Infyni family. Maiya was set to leave his home in two days for the base camp to acclimatize to the altitude. For Infyni, it was only a matter of how.
Our promotional material was shipped in two days from our office in Gurgaon to Bangalore. Time and again, it’s clear that determination is what helps one go the extra mile. Despite fighting a fever and infection, Maiya successfully completed both marathons in record time.
Creating a Healthy Mindset
The pandemic was a reminder of the need for conscious, healthy living. While many of us were initiated into an active lifestyle post-Covid to improve energy levels or immunity, people like Maiya leveraged the opportunities that isolation brought.
He talks about watching endless hours of motivational videos, talks, and webinars on nutrition. He also shares how fasting improved his metabolism and the value of ancestral grains and millets in his journey to fitness. Today, Maiya tries to share his story with those who feel overwhelmed by the effort required to get healthy and fit.
