[#RunToLiveGreat Fringe Activity] Sh'Bam Rockout at True Fitness Suntec City

Image
I attended my last GEWR fringe activity which was the Sh'Bam Rockout at True Fitness Suntec City .   I never heard about Sh'Bam Rockout before, prior to this event. Oh well, to me, all I know that it is an aerobic workout similar to Zumba. I didn't expect myself to like this intense cardio workout in the beginning, as I expected myself to be unable to catch up with the trainer's movements. However, after a few sets, I slowly began to feel more comfortable in doing the workout together as a group with the trainer. There are many turnings, footwork and jumping which I found hard as I was new to this aerobic dance and rhythm. The continuous jumping and dance left me feeling exhausted, and therefore I burnt a lot of calories through this workout.   After the session, I took some welfies with my GEWR buddy, Tracy and my lovable babe, Samantha.   Thanks True Fitness for the lovely goodies bag!   Our post...

[GEWR 2014 Activity] Cooking workshop with Tupperware

Image
I attended a cooking workshop @ Tupperware office as part of the activities of GEWR 2014 , and it was an interesting event as we got to have hands on cooking session.   To be honest, I do cook at times, but my cooking skill is still at best, at a basic level. I want to learn more recipes in order to prepare meals for my family, loved ones and even for myself too.   This cooking workshop was a pretty good move for me to gain more cooking methods and inspirations.     I met up with my training buddy, Tracy for the event, and during the event, we were taught how to make 3 recipes, Yam Cake, Egg Tarts and Garlic Spread.     First recipe was the Yam Cake, and we followed the instructions step by step in making the delicious home-made yam cake.     Tupperware Extra Chef (SGD138) helps to ease the job by chopping and blending the ingredients together effortlessly.  The yam cake tasted pretty g...

[#RunToLiveGreat Fringe Activity] Polar Training Run at Sports Hub

Image
As a part of the #Runtolivegreat Challenge , I received an Adidas workout tee and a pair of New Balance running shoes together with my personalized training manual. I attended my very first fringe activity, Polar Training Run at Singapore Sport Hub . Being a participant, we need to fulfill at least 2 main/mega fringe activities, as this is to help us in our training leading up to the Great Eastern Women's Run (GEWR) which will take place in 09 November 2014. We were given a short briefing before the training commenced. The Singapore Sport Hub boosts a very nice view and ambience that perks up my sleepy Saturday morning. We started off with a slow jog as mentioned earlier during the briefing, and there were many pit-stops along the run training, where we had to do physical exercise training like Jumping Jacks, running on the spot, Sprints, etc. It was pretty tiring to do these physical trainings together with our run training.
