Regular Exercise, Key To Wellness, Long Life – Fitness Expert

A fitness expert and chairman of Gategold Limited, Sir Goodluck Obi, has proffered solutions to rampant cases of sudden deaths of some high profile Nigerians in public places. Obi blamed the incidents on lack of awareness on regular health checks, lack of exercise and lifestyle issues.

Obi told journalists that, ”I became a fitness buff when I took ill some years ago and I went to the USA for treatment.

”The doctor carried out thorough checks and concluded that I should go and do exercise for some time and comeback.

”I complied. After I returned to the doctor, ççhe said I should intensity the exercise for four days and come back to see him. I repeated this routine.

”Finally, he gave me a clean bill of health without administering any treatment. That was what opened my eyes and gave birth to the vision of promoting fitness as a key regimen for long life and wellness. This happened around 2007. That was the beginning of Gategold. It was set up to promote longevity, and healthy life style”.

According to Obi, his business is not just about making money. “Gategold is the vehicle I use to promote my calling for healthy living because I benefited from it myself.”

He revealed that prior to the launch of the Gategold company,he was a successful automobile spare parts dealer.

‘I left a thriving business to promote this vision; a calling indeed that benefits humanity’, he added.

Obi gave insights into human health challenges.’I am not a medical doctor, but by experience, I know that you can be slim and not be healthy. You may look and feel good and not be healthy.

He noted that children exercise themselves by playing, running around, jumping and all that, which helps them grow into healthy adults.

‘For one to stay healthy, you must listen to the voice of your body and react accordingly, before it’s too late’, he added.
