5 Sports You Should Start Playing This New Year | A cliché quote that we are all tired of hearing because it is true and also we are unable to follow the same, despite knowing how much we tell ourselves to do it.

We take up resolutions to start going to a gym regularly or to exercise daily but we are not able to keep pushing ourselves to take it till the end of the year without losing our motivation.
