Kishore Jena: Road to Paris 2024 Olympics in Javelin Throw

July 21, 2024 by Neelam Saini

Kishore Jena, an Indian track and field athlete specializing in javelin throw, is poised to make his mark on the world stage at the upcoming Paris Olympics 2024. Hailing from a family of paddy farmers in Kothasahi village, Puri district of Odisha, Jena’s journey to Olympic heights is a testament to perseverance and unwavering determination.

Height	1.76 m (5 ft 9 in)

From Volleyball to Javelin: An Unexpected Path

Kishore Kumar Jena’s athletic journey began with volleyball, a sport he pursued until his short stature hindered his progress and led to rejection from a sports hostel. This setback, however, proved to be a turning point. Embracing the opportunity for a fresh start, Jena switched to javelin throw in 2019, a decision that would redefine his athletic career.

Finding Stability and Success

In 2018, Jena secured employment with the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), providing him with a sense of stability and allowing him to focus on honing his javelin throwing skills. The year 2023 marked a turning point for Jena. He clinched a silver medal at the national championships in Bhubaneswar, showcasing his growing prowess. Shortly after, he registered a throw of 84.38m in Sri Lanka, a significant improvement that hinted at his potential.

Breaking Barriers and Reaching New Heights

Jena’s unwavering dedication and talent culminated in a remarkable feat at the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest. Overcoming initial hurdles related to visa approval, he secured a commendable fifth-place finish with a personal best throw of 84.77m. This achievement not only solidified his position as one of India’s brightest javelin throwers but also secured him a spot at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

A Silver Lining: The 2023 Asian Games

Jena’s meteoric rise continued at the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, where he secured a silver medal with a throw of 87.54m, a personal best at the time. This feat not only secured India’s second quota for the javelin throw event at the Paris Olympics but also marked a significant milestone in Jena’s athletic career.

Facing Setbacks and Emerging Stronger

Jena’s journey hasn’t been without its challenges. In a recent interview, he revealed contemplating quitting the sport in 2022 due to a string of underwhelming performances. However, with unwavering support from his family, particularly his father’s encouragement, and a crucial 81.05m throw at the Indian Grand Prix in Thiruvananthapuram in March 2023, Jena reignited his passion and secured a World Ranking quota for the Budapest World Championships.

Paris Awaits: A Dream Realized

Despite a recent performance at the Paris Diamond League that wasn’t his best, Jena remains focused on his Olympic aspirations. He views Neeraj Chopra, the reigning Olympic and World Champion, as a mentor rather than a rival. Chopra’s positive influence, including a “Go for Paris” memento gifted after the World Championships, has significantly boosted Jena’s motivation and growth.

Jena’s story is one of resilience, dedication, and the unwavering pursuit of excellence. As he prepares to compete alongside Chopra at the Paris Olympics, the Indian javelin throw scene is abuzz with anticipation. With his talent, determination, and the support of his nation, Kishore Jena has the potential to not only replicate his Asian Games performance but also potentially challenge for a podium finish in Paris, bringing glory to India.

Praveen Chithravel – Road to Paris 2024 Olympics in Triple Jump

July 21, 2024 by Neelam Saini

Praveen Chithravel, a young Indian triple jumper, has risen from humble beginnings to become a national champion. Overcoming financial hardships, Praveen’s talent was recognized early on, and with unwavering dedication, he secured a national record and several prestigious medals. Now, on the cusp of the Paris Olympics, Praveen inspires future generations to chase their athletic dreams.

Praveen Chithravel-Personal Information

Born: June 5, 2001 (age 23)
Hometown: Tamil Nadu, India
Sport: Triple Jump
Achievements:
- National Record Holder (17.37m)
- 2022 Asian Games Bronze Medalist
- 2022 Commonwealth Games (4th Place)

Rising from Poverty

Praveen Chithravel’s journey to athletic success began in a small village in Tamil Nadu, India. Born on June 5, 2001, Praveen’s passion for sports emerged during his school years, despite significant financial challenges. His father worked as a daily wage farm laborer, and his mother managed the household.

At the age of eleven, Praveen’s athletic talent caught the eye of coach Indira Suresh at the Centre of Excellence (CoE) for Boys in Chennai. Recognizing his potential, Indira took Praveen under her wing and continued to train him even after her transfer to a college in Nagercoil. Praveen’s dedication was unwavering, insisting on training only under Indira’s guidance.

Early Accolades and Dedication

Despite financial limitations, Praveen’s hard work paid off. He secured a gold medal at the inaugural Khelo India School Games, marking the beginning of his promising career. This victory was followed by a silver medal at the Junior National Championships in Coimbatore. Coach Indira Suresh, recognizing Praveen’s potential for international competitions, envisioned him competing in prestigious events like the Asian Games, Commonwealth Games, and the Olympics.

Praveen’s talent was further recognized when he was scouted by the Inspire Institute of Sports. Here, he received financial assistance and trained with advanced facilities and international coaches. In early 2019, he joined the Indian Institute of Sport (IIS) and committed himself to rigorous training. His unwavering dedication rarely allowed him to return home.

Consistent Improvement and National Breakthrough

Praveen’s commitment translated into consistent improvement. In 2021, he emerged victorious at the National Open Championships in Warangal with a jump of 16.88 meters. He continued this momentum with a 16.84-meter jump at the Federation Cup.

A defining moment arrived at the 61st Inter-State Senior Athletics Championships in Chennai. Praveen surpassed the 17-meter mark with an impressive 17.18-meter jump, exceeding the World Championship qualification mark. This achievement also broke the national record held by Renjith Maheswary since 2016.

Narrowly Missing the Podium and Overcoming Setbacks

Praveen set his sights on a podium finish at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. With a focused mindset, he quoted his idol, Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra, stating, “Pathukalam da” (we’ll see as it comes). Despite a strong performance, Praveen narrowly missed a bronze medal by just three centimeters, finishing fourth.

The disappointment was undeniable, but a message from his idol, Neeraj Chopra, provided solace. Praveen remained determined and aimed to break the outdoor national record. He finally achieved this feat with a 17.37m jump at the Prueba de Confrontacion 2023 Meet in Cuba.

Evolving as a Medalist

Praveen’s talent continued to shine on the international stage. He secured a bronze medal in the men’s triple jump at the 2022 Asian Games. However, maintaining consistency at the 17-meter mark proved challenging.

Despite this, Praveen displayed impressive form in the lead-up to the 2024 Paris Olympics. He delivered jumps of 17.12m at the Indian Grand Prix-1 in Bengaluru and 16.98m at the 63rd Inters States Athletics Championship in Panchkula.

Looking Ahead: Paris 2024 and Beyond

With his sights firmly set on the Paris Olympics, Praveen Chithravel continues to push the boundaries in triple jump. His story serves as an inspiration for future generations of Indian athletes, demonstrating the power of hard work and dedication in achieving dreams.

Sarvesh Anil Kushare – Road to Paris 2024 Olympics in High Jump

August 8, 2024July 21, 2024 by Neelam Saini

Sarvesh Anil Kushare, a high jumper from Maharashtra, India, is all set to represent his country at the 2024 Paris Olympics. His journey to the Olympics is an inspiring tale of dedication, resilience, and unwavering passion for the sport.

Early Life and Introduction to High Jump

Born on June 17, 1995, in Deogaon, a village 70 km from Nashik, Maharashtra, Sarvesh Anil Kushare’s life took an athletic turn when he was introduced to high jump at a young age by his high school trainer, RW Jadhav. Unlike most high jumpers, Sarvesh’s training ground was far from conventional. He honed his skills on makeshift landing pits filled with cattle feed and agricultural waste. This unconventional training environment, however, couldn’t deter his determination.

“When I used to try to land on a pit made of agricultural waste back in my village, it was a big challenge. It was risky, but I just trusted my coach, RW Jadhav, and went into my jumps blindly. To be honest, that sort of training helps me now to minimize error,” Sarvesh shared in an earlier interview.

Despite his short stature for a high jumper (approximately 180 cm), Sarvesh’s talent shone through. Under Jadhav’s watchful eye, he cleared an impressive 2.17m at a young age, a feat that even landed him a job in the Indian army.

Training and Early Achievements

Sarvesh’s dedication to the sport began to pay off early in his career. Under the guidance of RW Jadhav, he quickly showed promise in high jump, managing to clear 2.17 meters at a young age, which helped him secure a job in the army. In 2018, at the age of 22, Sarvesh set a new meet record with a jump of 2.24 meters, winning his first high jump gold at the elite level during the National Open Athletics Championships held in Odisha.

Rise to National Prominence

October 2019 marked a significant milestone in Sarvesh’s career. He continued his ascent by winning a gold medal with a jump of 2.26 meters at the Indian Open Championships in Ranchi. This performance paved the way for his international debut at the South Asian Championships. By 2019, he had improved his personal best to an impressive 2.26 meters, up from 2.17 meters in 2017. Despite the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, Sarvesh remained focused on his goals. In 2022, he achieved his personal best of 2.27 meters at the Indian National Championship in Gujarat.

Overcoming Challenges

At approximately 180 cm, Sarvesh is one of the shortest competitors in high jump competitions. However, his height has not deterred him. He has proven that determination and hard work can overcome physical limitations. In 2022, at the National Championship, he set his sights on breaking the national record of 2.30 meters held by Tejaswin Shankar. While narrowly missing the record with his trailing leg clipping the bar, his ambition and unwavering focus were evident.

Recent Achievements and Olympic Qualification

Sarvesh’s recent accomplishments solidify his position as a prominent Indian high jumper. In 2023, he clinched a silver medal with a jump of 2.26 meters at the Asian Athletics Championships in Bangkok, securing him a berth for the World Championships. At the World Athletics Championships in Budapest, he finished 11th in the qualification round and 20th overall, clearing 2.26 meters on his second attempt.

His exceptional performance in 2023 continued with a gold medal at the Inter-State Athletics Championships with a record jump of 2.25 meters. This remarkable performance solidified his position for the 2024 Paris Olympics. He secured his spot by finishing 23rd in the qualification process. His inclusion in the Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) core group for the 2024 Paris Olympics by the Sports Authority of India (SAI) further underscores his potential and the recognition he has garnered.

The Ultimate Dream: Paris Olympics

As Sarvesh prepares to compete against the best in the world at the Paris Olympics, his journey from humble beginnings in a small village to national and international prominence stands as a testament to his hard work and perseverance. While a medal might be a distant hope, Sarvesh is determined to make his country proud. His story embodies the essence of dedication, resilience, and the unwavering pursuit of a dream.

Suraj Panwar’s Debut: Road to Paris Olympics in the 20km Race Walk

July 20, 2024 by Neelam Saini

Suraj Panwar, a 23-year-old Indian race walker, is preparing for a unique experience at the Paris Olympics. Having competed primarily in the 20km race walk event, Panwar will now be participating in the newly introduced mixed race walk relay, which covers the marathon distance of 42.195km.

Background and Family

Suraj Panwar, a 23-year-old Indian race walker, is set to embark on a remarkable journey at the Paris Olympics. Panwar’s life has been marked by significant hardship. He tragically lost his father, Udai Singh Panwar, a forest guard, when he was just an infant. Raised single-handedly by his mother, Poonam, who worked at the forest department’s nursery, Panwar’s upbringing instilled in him immense resilience and determination.

Facing a New Olympic Challenge

Panwar will be making his Olympic debut in the newly introduced mixed race walk relay event, partnering with Priyanka Goswami. This innovative event, making its Olympic premiere in Paris, covers a grueling marathon distance of 42.195km. The race format involves alternating legs between the male and female walkers. The male walker tackles the first 12.195km, followed by a 10km stint from the female walker. This pattern continues until the finish line, with the combined time of both athletes determining the final result. Panwar will cover a total of 22.195km across two legs, with a designated break in between for recovery with the help of support staff.

Training and Preparation

Despite the unique team aspect of the mixed relay, Panwar is currently training alone at SAI Bengaluru. His teammate, Priyanka Goswami, is training abroad and won’t arrive in Paris until late July. To simulate race conditions, Panwar incorporates breaks into his training regime. He walks 12.195km, followed by a 45-minute break, before resuming for another 10km. Panwar’s training is overseen by his coach, Tatiana Sibileva, from Russia.

Overcoming Adversity on the Road to the Olympics

Panwar’s path to the Olympics wasn’t without its obstacles. He initially achieved the qualifying standard for the individual 20km race walk event at the National Championships in Chandigarh. However, a technical issue led to the disqualification of his time. Despite this setback, he managed to secure a spot through the world ranking quota. The Athletics Federation of India then made the surprising decision to select him for the mixed race walk relay event.

Perseverance Pays Off: The Olympic Dream Realized

The selection for the Olympics came as a surprise to Panwar, especially after the disappointment of his National Championships timing being disqualified. However, his unwavering perseverance paid off. The federation recognized his overall performance and selected him for the Paris Games. Panwar credits his unwavering spirit to his stoic mother, who has always been his source of inspiration. Despite her not fully comprehending the intricacies of his sport, her constant advice to focus on his training has been a guiding force for him.

Support Systems and Future Prospects

Recently, Panwar received a welcome boost as the Mission Olympic Cell included him in the Target Olympics Podium Scheme’s (TOPS) core group. This inclusion ensures financial support from the government to cover his training and other expenses. Additionally, he will receive a monthly allowance of Rs 50,000. Panwar plans to surprise his mother with the news of the allowance once he starts receiving it.

Conclusion: A Testament to Resilience

Suraj Panwar’s journey to the Paris Olympics is a testament to his remarkable resilience, unwavering dedication, and the unwavering support of his mother. As he gears up for his debut on the grand Olympic stage, Panwar remains focused on giving his all for his country and making the most of this incredible opportunity.

How Much Water Do You Need?

August 24, 2024July 20, 2024 by Neelam Saini

water percentages in different organs and tissues -Don’t ignore what your body is telling you

How Much Water Should You Drink Each Day?

DEHYDRATION- The human body is about 70% water . We lose fluids daily through urine, sweating, and even breathing. The exact amount of water you need depends on several factors, but health organizations generally recommend adults drink between 1.5 to 3 liters of water per day . You may also get fluids from your diet, especially through fruits and vegetables.

The water content in various organs of the body can vary significantly. Here’s a breakdown of the approximate water percentages in different organs and tissues:

Blood: About 80-90%
Brain: Approximately 75-85%
Lungs: Roughly 80-85%
Heart: Around 70-75%
Muscles: About 75%
Skin: Approximately 64-70%
Kidneys: Around 80%
Liver: Approximately 70%
Bones: About 20% water (bones have lower water content compared to other organs)

These percentages can help illustrate the importance of staying hydrated, as water plays a crucial role in maintaining the function and health of these vital organs.

7 Signs You Might Be Dehydrated

1. Dry Mouth and Feeling Thirsty

Feeling thirsty and having a dry mouth are the most well-known signs. A dry mouth can also weaken your immune system, making you more susceptible to infections . If you find it difficult to drink plain water, try adding slices of lemon, cucumber, or other fruits for extra flavor or suck on sugar-free lozenges to stimulate saliva production. https://globalbuzznetwork.com/web-stories/drinks-that-can-help-reduce-belly-fat-naturally-2/

2. Dark Urine or Less Frequent Urination

If you’re not drinking enough fluids, your urine becomes more concentrated and darker in color. Ideally, your urine should be a pale yellow color. Pay attention to how often you urinate as well. If you are going to the bathroom less than usual and your urine is dark yellow, you likely need to drink more water.

3. Headaches and Dizziness

Frequent headaches and dizziness can be caused by dehydration. When you don’t drink enough fluids, your blood volume decreases. This means your brain isn’t getting the blood and nutrients it needs to function properly. If you experience headaches or dizziness, try increasing your water intake and consult a doctor if the symptoms persist.

4. Tiredness and Concentration Problems

It can also zap your energy levels and make it difficult to concentrate. Similar to headaches and dizziness, this is because reduced blood volume means less blood flow to the brain . Staying hydrated can help improve your focus and cognitive function throughout the day.

5. Dry Skin and Lips

Dry, cracked skin and lips are classic signs – Here’s a simple self-test: pinch the skin on the back of your hand and see how quickly it snaps back into place. If it takes a few seconds to return to normal, you may be dehydrated. It can also make your skin appear dull due to a lack of oxygen and nutrients.

6. Dark Circles Under the Eyes

Dehydration can worsen the appearance of dark circles under the eyes. When you don’t drink enough fluids, your blood becomes thicker and more sluggish. This can make blood vessels under the eyes more visible, leading to puffiness and dark circles .

7. Constipation

Constipation is another common sign of dehydration. If you’re not drinking enough water, your body pulls extra water from your stool to compensate, making it harder and more difficult to pass . Drinking plenty of water helps keep your digestive system moving smoothly and can help prevent constipation.

Additional Signs of Dehydration

In addition to the 7 signs listed above, here are some other signs that you might be dehydrated:

Bad breath: When your mouth is dry, you produce less saliva, which can lead to bad breath.
Muscle cramps: Electrolyte imbalances caused by dehydration can contribute to muscle cramps.
Cold sweats: Although sweating is a sign of dehydration, cold sweats accompanied by chills can sometimes indicate more severe dehydration.
Fever: While fever itself can cause dehydration, dehydration can also sometimes elevate your body temperature.
Feeling hungry even though you just ate: Dehydration can sometimes be misinterpreted as hunger pangs.
Joint pain: Dehydration can worsen existing joint pain.
