Absolute stunners
A website called sixpackfactory.com, dedicated to those who live for just one reason, to get the finest and neatest abs, religiously follow the motto-Workout till last breath. In fact, back home, our Punjabi actors have taken it far too seriously.

Juneja, Varinder Ghuman, Balli Riar, Nav Bajwa.

Putting is a complex part of the game and is made of a number of building blocks. Reading a green and experience are important as well as being able to visualise and having a positive mind set.
