Hobbies, favorite movies, books:

• "Outside my professional work, I devote significant attention to maintaining a healthy lifestyle and staying physically active. I regularly work out at the gym, which helps develop endurance, discipline, and physical fitness. I also enjoy playing tennis, which I consider an excellent sport for improving coordination, concentration, decision-making speed, and teamwork. In literature and cinema, I prefer works with meaningful, well-structured plots, deeply developed characters, and relevant themes. I appreciate books and films that not only captivate with their stories but also encourage critical thinking, reflection on human behavior, ethical issues, and life values."

Doctor's advice:

• "People often begin to appreciate the freedom of movement only after they lose it. While you are pain-free, stay active, strengthen your muscles, maintain a healthy body weight, never neglect rehabilitation after injuries, and do not postpone seeking medical care. Investing in your health today is the key to remaining active and independent in the future."
