[FITFIND] Daryl Cheng
Dr. Cheng, as he is cheekily nicknamed in the gym, is often teased for his body so I thought it would be fun to put him out there proper in a shirtless shoot. Daryl is only 20 years old but has a pretty crazy work capacity developed from his water polo days and now CrossFit. […]
[FITFIND] Pang Sheng Jun
National swimmer Pang Sheng Jun secured his first individual medal at this year’s Southeast Asian Games, something that has been eluding him for a while. He also happens to have a pretty chiselled body – just look at that V! Kicking off the first of my Yahoo Singapore #FitFind of the Week columns, this will […]
[FITSPO] Hayati Nuffus
Kettlebell galore. That’s all I think of when Hayati Nuffus comes to mind. Haha just kidding, some. Well, Hayati is pretty awesome. She owns and runs one of the few kettlebell gyms in Singapore, AlphaFit. That means, they do the usual strength and conditioning stuff, but with kettlebells instead of dumbbells or barbells. COOL. Hayati […]
[FITSPO] Emma Xiong
#absgamestrong Emma Xiong was getting a little pudgy around the waist after moving to Singapore for about four months, so she decided to look for a gym to work out at. Through her search on the internet, she stumbled across Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and thought it interesting. Coincidentally, her friend also suggested it to her. Curious, she tried […]
[FITSPO] Rachel Wong
Rachel Wong grew up suffering from body image issues, always feeling she’s short and fat. The 1.50-metre 20-year-old undergraduate used to run a lot of marathons, but switched to lifting weights when she wanted to get a more toned body. “Lifting weights and learning that I have the ability to change the way I look […]
[FITSPO] Wany Misban
Wany Misban, who goes by the really cute IG moniker @oneknee, is someone I’ve been wanting to meet for a long time already. We have many mutual friends and I see her in a lot of their photos, but just never met her personally… until this. She has to be featured on my Yahoo Fitspo […]
[FITSPO] Bethia Wee
Bethia Wee, winner of NutriGirl 2015, only started going to the gym early last year. With a background in Latin dance and Wushu, you could say she’s new to weights, but that didn’t stop the 19-year-old student from signing up for her first physique competition and then the second, NutriGirl, which she beat 25 girls […]
[FITSPO] Deborah Tan
Deborah Tan signed up for her first yoga class with the intention of relieving stress of her corporate job. It was a challenge for her, as she took on yoga with baggage from the past about flexibility issues, disconnection with her body and breath, and no sports or fitness background. Regardless, she persevered and after a year, she […]
[FITSPO] #Swolemates Seetoh Jiaxin and Ray Yoe
I’ve known Jia since 2013 and I’m glad we have maintained the friendship despite all the circumstances and challenges that have surrounded our friendships and the people around us. I love the forthrightness of this girl and how she is never afraid to say things as they are. I don’t see what’s wrong with her […]
[FITSPO] Georgina Poh
I noticed Georgina on Instagram two years ago because of her massive following – it stands at 128k at point of writing. She posts a lot of videos of her workouts and her followers love her interesting non-conventional workouts, such as standing back-to-back with her boyfriend in a squat stance and passing a medicine ball […]
