Singapore Fitness Coach Talk: Observations

Here are some my observations about the way us Singaporeans approach their health and exercise.

  • We DO have the time - If only we watched less TV and played less World of Warcraft
  • We can achieve great health with only 3 hours of proper training per week - If we are eating the correct foods as I wrote about here.
  • Cardio is NOT bad for health - It is good to stay healthy
  • Cardio is BAD for fat loss - especially if we have limited time
  • Women are motivated by encouragement - in general
  • Men are motivated by challenge - in general
  • Many people have poor hip function and mobility - leading to knee and back problems
  • Many people have poor upper back posture - leading to shoulder and neck problems
  • Barefoot training is really helping my clients with their foot/ankle health as well as their balance
  • Warming up is very important - so is static stretching during the end of the day
