Synopsis
It’s no secret that having an active lifestyle helps to prevent the onset and recurrence of many chronic diseases while at the same time help to improve mental and emotional wellbeing.Despite this, the choice to exercise can sometimes be daunting. Where do I start? Should I focus more on my cardiovascular fitness or jump straight into strength training? How should I exercise such that it is not too much for my body to handle? Can I exercise in a manner that will reduce the risk of injury?
In this talk, we aim to equip you with a basic understanding of exercise and how to do it right, while at the same time dispel some of the common exercise myths that you might have.
(Do note that the session will be conducted in English only)

Turned my life upside down. From a focused and down-to-earthperson, I became someone lacking in confident, confused and full of emotions. I hated theword “Strong”. “Be strong”, “Stay strong”, “You are strong”, “Thought you are strong”, blah,blah…. Never an easy journey!!But when you trust, submit and be a true slave to the only ONE, things will get easier. Seekhelp. Make authentic decision for yourself and no one else. Never give up HOPE!! Rose
