In this Episode, Mukesh Bansal (Founder Myntra & Cult.Fit) is in conversation with Rishabh Telang, Co-Founder of Cult and one of India’s leading fitness experts.  A one stop all person for all things fitness, Rishabh opened the very first Cult Centre with little to no help. He has helped transform the fitness landscape in the country by spearheading successful training programs. He discusses about his first nerve-wracking meeting with Mukesh and how it led to one of the leading fitness spaces in the country.

Recruiting trainers for centres, working with Hrithik Roshan on HRX and realising the potential of Zumba: Rishabh’s Cult journey is inspiring to say nonetheless. A TEDx Speaker too, Rishabh talks in depth about weightless, muscle building and finding the right fitness milestone for you. So tune into this conversation and be sure to get ahead on your fitness journey that starts with the smallest step: listening to this Sparx episode of course!
