Rishabh Telang — Co-Founder
I’ve spent the last decade immersing myself in how India moves - the science, the behaviour, the barriers, and the opportunities. As the Co-Founder of cult.fit, my work focuses on new fitness initiatives, format innovation, and building experiences that actually help people stay active. I’m currently driving our mission to make 100 million Indians move, by creating formats that blend science, accessibility, and joy. From experimenting with community-led workouts to launching new verticals like Pilates Circle by cult, my goal is simple: help more people discover movement that feels good and stays consistent. I’m deeply curious about how fitness habits are formed, what keeps people motivated, and how structured formats can create lasting change. This curiosity also fuels my conversations on The Health Edit Podcast, where I explore health, training, and human performance with experts and practitioners. cult began with a belief that fitness works best when it’s community-driven, and that is the lens through which I continue to build, test, and scale new ideas. If you enjoy conversations around movement, fitness science, behaviour change, and new-age wellness experiences, I’m always open to connect.
