[pop up studio] 7Cycle at AXA Tower

Previously, I've had a little experience on the humble stationary exercise bike. Baby would take me to the gym and I would use the cycle for a good 20 minutes. I've always felt that this form of exercise was fairly monotonous, and never realised that it could actually be used as a very high intensity cardio workout!
 
7Active gave me an invite to try out their 7Cycle program workouts, and boy did I get a tough workout! The place is located at Anamalai Avenue which is a short distance walk from Sixth Avenue MRT Station (Downtown Line).
 
 
I had my first ever 7Cycle experience at their pop up studio, which is temporarily located at AXA Tower, and it is available from now till 28th of October 2016. 
 
 
There are 4 different types available at the pop-up studio:-
 
7Cycle Signature is suitable for all fitness levels and it features a lightweight workout for arms and shoulders.
 
7Cycle Road is a slightly more physically challenging program as compared to the signature ride, with added emphasis and effort on road-styled cycling time trials, hill climbs and improving one's threshold. This is a ride that can help to burn more fats and helps get fitter and leaner in long run.
 
7Cycle Bootcamp is a powerful on-off bike strength and conditioning class that will push you out of your comfort zone and awakens you mentally and physically.
 
7Cycle Bootcamp - Core + Strength is a 35 minutes high intensity training combining cardio intervals with body weights.
 
 
Upon stepping into the pop-up studio, I was greeted by 4 rows of workout bikes. Although it is a temporary site and the facilities are not as adequate as compared to the main studio, I still had a real good workout! 

 
I opted for 7Cycle Road, and Instructor Louise was friendly and patient with us. She taught us on how to use the bike, especially on how to adjust the resistance level in order to make the cycle workout more difficult. 
 
'MUSIC IS THE SOUL' as the indoor cycling combines loud music beats with a high intensity cardio workout to help us to burn off our unwanted fats. 
 
Indoor cycling is very cardio-intensive and is way more strenuous as compared to outdoor cycling, as we need to pedal harder and faster against a set resistance level. I couldn't believe how tired and breathless I was after completing the session. I was really in disbelief, as I never thought that a stationary bike would offer such an intensive work-out!   
  
 
Despite it being challenging, I still enjoyed myself very much and I knew I had done a very good workout! Thanks Michelle and 7Active for inviting me! 
 
For people who don't enjoy exercising under a hot sun (or getting bitten by mosquitos...) This will be a suitable alternative for them. You can contact them at hello@7group.sg to book a class, and the charges as below:
 
Single Class - SGD35
5 Classes - SGD160
10 Classes - SGD300

KUNDAL o ffers natural hair/bodycare products that have the perfect blend of plant extracts. Their products are comfortably referred to as green products due to their biodegradable and non-toxic components. What I love about the  KUNDAL HONEY & MACADAMIA  range is  that they use honey and macadamia extracts as their main ingredients. They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder. The scent still lingering in the bathroom for hours and it smells pleasant as well as not being over-powering. I love how my hair feels smooth after using each of the products.

Thanks for introducing COCOnCO from Korea which has helped me to achieve pleasant results from my beauty regime.   COCOnCO First Essence Toner  is a fermented facial essence, and it soothes wrinkles, tones, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, enhances blood circulation and metabolic processes at the cellular level, evens out complexion, brightens the skin, reduces the secretion of sebaceous glands and fights rashes. If you have pale, tired skin with sagging and fine lines, these can be miraculously transformed with regular use of the essence! It is suggested to be used as the first step in daily skin care. Apply it to cleansed skin first before applying the lotion, emulsion/serum and cream.  It is recommended for the product to be used twice a day - Once in the morning, and once in the evening.

The common scalp problems can cause a lot of irritation, but also hair loss. I was in complete shock at the state of my nightmarish infected scalp! One must make a huge effort to take good care of your scalp. Hence here I am at Jonsson Protein for their signature VE Protein Hair Treatment.

She also explained that my scalp was pretty oily, and my scal
