A deadlift can severely strain the vertebrae and lower back disc, mainly if you use the wrong form. While there is no doubt that drinking water is essential throughout the day, it is vital to drink water throughout your exercise regime. If you have suffered minor injuries or aches during your exercise regime, a good night’s sleep will help you recover faster. This test will help a healthcare professional understand how well the heart functions and whether there is a chance of any cardiovascular issues.

It was a life well lived, his career in comedy segueing into politics over the last eight years with him joining the Samajwadi Party and then the BJP. He made it a point, however, to track newspaper ads about comedy shows being performed in the city. And in 2021, he targeted "Tandav", also on Amazon, for allegedly hurting the sentiments of Hindus. Among those were the prime minister, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and a host of other politicos. The comedy was perhaps foretold but the young Raju may not have known it when he boarded a train from Kanpur to Mumbai. He launched a series of audio cassettes and video CDs and had a role in the popular 1990s Doordarshan superhero show "Shaktimaan". The kind of familiar face in the comedy and cinema circuit suddenly became a household name. It was a family of six brothers and one sister. You should be ashamed of yourselves for mocking our Hindu gods and goddesses," Srivastava said in his strongly worded video. In 2014, he got a Samajwadi Party ticket to contest the Lok Sabha election from Kanpur. Film-maker Vinod Kapri, for instance, posted an old video where Srivastava can be seen in a spoof talking to Lord Brahma, promising him to arrange a meeting with actor Madhuri Dixit. And then in 2005, it all changed.
