My name is Akshit...
...and I am currently a PhD candidate at TU Delft. I also did my double master's earlier at EWI. During my master's, I was also very active in entrepreneurial pursuits (zero to one stuff) along with participating in a lot of international competitions and hackathons.
I have been a member of X...
...since late 2019. I have been active in long-distance running, spartan training and spinning. Since last year, I have started body power mainly for conditioning. Further, I am also a member of Slopend (survival run) and Shot (beach volleyball) sports associations.
For me, each physical activity...
...(ticket hour or training) has been a chance to clear my mind so I can work fresh in the evenings in the best possible way. Further, the intensity of the runner’s high and/or the dopamine rush felt after the activity, has been largely proportional to how much I pushed during the physical activity.
In fact, I have found my most creative or impactful ideas emanate late in the evenings in the library after coming back from X rather than in the mornings. Or maybe, I am just a night owl.
X has something for almost everyone...
...For people new to X, I would recommend trying the various ticket hours to find the combination of strength/endurance/cardio they like. Also, feel free to talk to the trainers as they are very helpful and can provide great tips to improve your technique. And lastly: know that sports associations are great to join if you have more time!
