Picking the right fitness method
Unless you are looking forward to a UFC medallion after office hours, mixed martial arts is not what you should be spending time on. But if you are expecting muggers anytime on your way back home, general martial arts training might help sort out things. But the time and dedication it takes is not in the liberty of many, not especially in this growing state of Bangladesh. The better option avails are those that are swift, time-based, and committed to the moment. Almost everyone is aware of the options available, but how many have really thought on which should better suit them?
Gymnasium
Gym, as colloquially it is known, involves diverse fitness methods. Although referring to open air exercises, they are much focused on athletic level of fitness. Despite what the dictionary meaning has to say, the perception of gyms in Bangladesh is different. The common notion is to build muscles, and fitness being a natural achievement in the process, although over building isn’t part of the fitness you are looking for. If you are involved in heavy duty tasks, like in service sector or construction that requires lending heavy hands, you might consider gym as a perfect fitness option. This is primarily because, no matter how it is perceived here, gym centres provide instructions and fitness guidelines that tone your muscles for performance in heavy duty. If you are not in any of the services related jobs, gym may not be the right option because it requires constant involving of muscles into such heavy tasks, that is constant visit to gym centres.

Rohingya: Walk A Mile In Their Shoes
My reminiscences of Cox’s Bazar are deeply rooted in my childhood during family vacations taken with my parents and three siblings - horse rides on the beach, sunsets against the widest horizon, charcoal barbecues by nightfall, and copious amounts of seafood throughout our stays. My recent trip to Cox’s Bazar, some 20 odd years later, however, was starkly contrasting in that the circumstance was dire, one which continues to sit steep in my mind.
