Obv this being a fitness sub something healthy pls!!
We hear it all the time, "I'm gonna start BJJ when I get fitter". What happens after that? NOTHING. Nothing happens. Stop making excuses and just do the things you want to do.
I finally did a 17s free standing headstand hold! Still a beginner. Still learning. Still falling out of balance. But I’m giving it everything I’ve got.
Getting a little better every day. 🤸♂️🔥
One day, I’ll look back at this and see how far I’ve come.
Anyone keens to run intervals around evening time at yishun stadium today?
I signed up to Anytime Fitness Jurong West (the one at Nanyang cc) last month during their July sale. On Monday, the gym sent a whatapps message saying that they will be permanently closed effective 7th September 2026 @ 1130pm.
My first reaction was like what? They were actively advertising and getting ppl to sign up during the sale and now they want to close down?
Obviously the staff are just employees working for the gym and they might not have known that the gym was gonna close down so soon but I don't think this was very well-handled or communicated.
I checked with my friend who has been with the gym for >1 year but he said he has not receive any message from them. Up till now, they have not made an announcement on their Instagram page and they did not put up any notice in the gym stating that they will be permanently closed next month.
Has this happened to anyone and what did you do or would do in this situation?
I have a regular 9am-6pm work. I gym after work. However I'm a night owl. My friends are usually free to meet up or play games at 9pm ish because they are also free during that time. However I love the early morning gym and have tried it a couple of times but it's really tough to be consistent on it. How can I gym and be with my friends?
Also when I gym at night. I don't have much time to actually be able to hang out with my friends lol due to the peak hour thing delaying my workout. So what advice do you guys have so I can do both without ditching on another?
Hi! I’m (37M) moving to Jurong West, around Boon Lay/ Pioneer, next month. I’m hoping to get more active and would be keen to find some exercise buddies nearby, maybe for jogging, swimming, or even someone patient enough who can teach me how to use the gym equipment and get started with a simple workout routine. 😆
Nothing too hardcore, just looking to exercise regularly, have some company, and make a few new friends in the area.
Not sure why, but these ads have been appearing on my feed lately, and I realized that there are actually a few different brands selling in Singapore.
What’s everyone’s take on nasal strips?
If they worked for you, how have they helped in your sport or your fitness journey?
Was really unhappy at the way I look and decided to experiment with body recomposition right after Chinese New Year this year. Started with simple Youtube videos with full body workout. And decided to invest in a Reebok deck and a pair of adjustable dumbbells (Best decision ever).
Starting point: Feb 2026
Age: 48, Height: 167: Weight: 65kg
Current: Aug 2026 - Weight 53kg
Calorie intake 1300. Around 150g protein per day.
Home workout: Strength train 4 times a week with adjustable dumbbell and Bench + Pullup bar + Zone 2 Cardio 2 times a week (Slow jog).
Small milestone, but I'm genuinely proud of this one. Started with zero calisthenics experience, and now I'm able to kick up into a back-to-wall handstand and hold the position.
Still a long way from a freestanding handstand, but I'm enjoying every step of the journey.
Never too late to start. 💪
Would love to hear any tips on improving my handstand line and eventually transitioning from wall-supported to freestanding!
Warning all to double check the shops you are buying from on Shopee.
This one is named “Optimal Nutrition SG Store” and I saw that vouchers/flash deal brought the price down to 183 for 2 5lbs tubs..
I only realised later than there is another legit shop, and this one has only got 20 followers.
Tubs arrived poorly boxed.
Compared to an obviously authentic tub I am consuming now:
- sticker colour looks off (lacks pop)
- scratch authentication is printed but not scratch-able, QR too blurry to be scanned. So no code for verification
- other authentication features don’t check out
https://www.optimumnutrition.com/en-us/pages/authentic-products
I sent a message to ON customer service asking for manual authentication, no response - but at this point I’m pretty sure.
I’ve request return on Shopee, and they are reviewing.. sent seller message and got garbage responses.
I’m guessing some people might be entirely duped, so have a laugh on me. Cheers.
Update:
- Shopee refund is approved, I’m left w the 2 fake tubs
- filed report on Shopee against seller + shop is shut down
- filed report to HSA/SFA
- For those that chimed in just to say they never got scammed, and how I should have done it differently. I just want to say that you sooo clever.. that aside, thanks to those that offered constructive tips and support.
I’ve been paying more attention to the small setup changes people make on common gym equipment. A bench angle, seat position, or cable height can be only slightly off and the whole movement suddenly feels awkward. What exercise only started feeling natural once you found the right setup?
7.30pm to 9pm for both classes, free trials anytime! if you decide to sign up, fees are $70 per 10 lessons (not including uniforms/other equipment), ages 8 and up! feel free to pm me for enquiries 👍 (thanks mods for allowing)
