Step Up And Lose Weight Now
If you’ve always hated running, rowing or any other forms of cardio exercises, do not worry. Try taking the stairs! Yes, you didn’t hear me wrongly. The flights of stairs in your office building and HDB block might just be your answer to shedding those extra kilos. We are very fortunate to be living in Singapore. Besides being able to take the stairs up our HDB or condo block, we can also take the stairs whereever we can – think MRT stations, office stairs, shopping malls etc. The possibilities are endless. The best thing about stair-climbing is that you can …
Personal Training Is No Stroll In The Park
This may sound cliche but it works everytime I share it. “If you think personal training is a stroll in the park, think again”. This is my favourite phrase of late. Besides commitment from both client and trainer, personal training also demands a lot of determination from the client. It is definitely not an hour of chit-chat time where you pour out all your sob stories, latest problems or complaints about colleagues or bosses to me. Have you ever wondered why there are some people who work out at the gym for years and still remain scrawny or chubby? That’s …
Never Give Up On You
A new client told me he felt disappointed with himself after today’s training as he had difficulty lifting the weights. “Don’t give up on me ok?” he said. I will never give up on any of my clients. More importantly, you must not give up on yourself. Everyone starts at a different training phase of their life. Some begin as fresh-faced novices with zero knowledge on how to workout while others are semi-professional gym-goers who take personal training to sculpt a better body. Regardless of who you are, you have to start somewhere. For the fresh-faced novice, it’s always a challenge initially …
Welcome 2010!
Summing up, 2009 had been a good year for me. I couldn’t have asked for anything better as it gave me ample opportunities to touch lives through both my personal training programmes & workshops. In particular, I fulfilled my dream of conducting my own Train The Trainer Certification Programme. What started off as a bold ambition early in the year when I wrote the syllabus materialised into something that will now see future runs on a more consistent basis. Not forgetting that my grooming workshops have now reached out to more adults & students. I feel really blessed to be able to do what I enjoy …
Personal Training Changes Lives
It is the worst kept secret that when we embark on something new, it’s almost always the most difficult. And that’s when some of us would feel like throwing in the towel and walk away. We tell ourselves it’s too difficult and it cannot be done. But for the rest of us who persevere and watch the weeks go by, the results really speak for themselves. Such is the case of one of my male clients. Comparing the first time when he started training and the training he just completed today (his 15th lesson), the results are just phenomenal. …
Personal Training Testimonial: The Hot Sexy Mama
Nothing gives me more satisfaction than seeing my clients improve week after week. The feeling transcends everything as it makes me feel so blessed to be able to be encouraging them on their fitness journey. Although today’s Vesak Day, but I’m still working! In fact, I choose to work, work is also part of play for me. And what a day it turned out to be…what a transformation I’ve witnessed for myself ever since Nandini started personal training and resistance band training with me. From frumpy housewife combating post-natal weight gain to the persona and confidence of the hot, sexy mama she showed …
New Significant Fitness Milestones Achieved
Words cannot quite describe how I feel today…It’s a really beautiful feeling – one mixed with the emotions of gratitude, pride and achievement. And best of all, I have been testimony to all that has been happening till date. I’m literally feeling over the moon because two of my newest clients (who are barely one month old each) have made significant progress in their workouts! Initially still struggling with both machine weights and bodyweight exercises when I first met them, their maiden foray into free weights didn’t prove too much of a challenge! This can only mean one thing – …

You need to have a purpose in life. Make that a goal. We all know goal-setting is the most important as it helps us make or break our …
New Weights At Clubfitt Gyms
If you’ve always thought the public gyms were the poorer cousins of the private gyms, perhaps it’s time to rethink that again. Situated conveniently around the island, the 15 (and soon more to come I believe) Clubfitt gyms have been slowly, but surely undergoing a renewal of sorts of its own. Imagine our pleasant surprise today at Toa Payoh Clubfitt Gym when both my client and myself saw gleaming, new weights. Like a kid finding new candy bars in the store, it was indeed a welcome sight. The new barbell weights on the rack The new rubberised dumbells In a …
