Captain’s Message
Dear Members,
With September fast approaching, a new year is just around the
corner so please do allow me to provide you with a brief report on
all the latest happenings at our Club since my last message.
Course Closure on Tuesday Mornings
Several members have raised their concerns to us regarding the
Management and Golf Committee’s decision to close the main
course on Tuesday mornings for additional maintenance after each
Monday Night League for the period of 1 September to 8 December
2014. This gesture was in actuality a recommendation of the Golf
Committee as we felt that in order to facilitate the Monday Night
League, regular maintenance on Mondays had to be cut short in
preparation for the shot gun start. Another factor that came into
play was the fact that due to the regular Tuesday night golfing
schedule, there will be insufficient time for the course to rest.
After much deliberation and upon heeding the advice of our
President Bobby Wee, we have decided that in the interest of our
members’ needs, we will not be closing all 18 holes. We have
decided instead to do a rotation of 9 by 9 on alternate Tuesdays.
Please be informed that this arrangement is not permanent and will
only be in effect until the end of this 2nd season. The committee
will therefore deliberate on the pros and cons of continuing
with the Monday Night Men’s League. I do hope that members
understand and continue supporting our policy of maintaining a
balance between the needs of our members and our operational
requirements.
Club Lifestyle Scene
F&B (Food and Beverage) is a vital component of our golfing
package. We are pleased to inform that Lifestyle Chairman
V.Chandranathan reported that food and beverage prices including
beer and stout have been reduced recently. There is also an ongoing daily happy hour promotion which is just one of the many
attractive deals being offered in a bid to improve the quality of food
and services available at our Club. I certainly hope that members
will continue to patronize our F&B outlet Golfers’ Terrace after a
game of golf.
Member Achievements
Jurong Open 2014
The Jurong Open 2014 was held over a 3-day period from the
22nd of August to the 24th of August over 4 categories namely
Ladies which took place on the 22nd, C division and Corporate on
the 23rd and A and B Divisions on the 24th.
Edwin Pereira who is a JCC member along with being a member of
the Golf Committee was crowned overall Jurong Open Champion
2014. Our heartfelt congratulations go out to Edwin!
As this was an open event, we received many entries from both
local and Malaysian clubs which provided us with the opportunity
to showcase our newly renovated course. I am extremely pleased
to report that we received numerous accolades over the course
of this 3-day event complimenting the excellent condition of our
course specifically on the putting green.
I would like to extend my thanks to all members who contributed
to the astounding success of this event either by participating or
sponsorship. Most importantly, I would like to thank all members
for their kind understanding and support with regards to the
course being closed for normal social play over this 3-day period.
All in all we managed to raise some funds required to assist us
in the building of our new short game practice area that will be
located alongside the executive course.
Congratulations are in order for our member Dicky Tan who did our
club proud as part of the winning Singapore team at the recently
concluded 31st ASEAN Senior Amateur Golf Championships held
at Singapore Island Country Club (SICC). Keep our club’s flag
flying high Dicky!
Gentle Reminder on Course Etiquette
We have received numerous requests from members to ban
smoking on the course completely. The Committee felt that
measures had to be implemented in order to effectively tackle the
issue of cigarette butt litter. In order to be fair to all, it has been
decided that smoking will only be allowed at Tee Boxes or inside
the Buggy (for Buggy users only) where an ash tray is present. In
the case of trolley pullers, smoking shall only be allowed at the
Tee Boxes. We would also like to remind all golfers to always fill
divots with sand, rake bunkers and repair ball marks on the Green.
We thank you for your cooperation in eliminating litter on the
course. We would also appreciate your assistance in educating
fellow members on course etiquette. Thank you for your efforts
in keeping our beautiful course pristine for the golfing pleasure
of all.

Meet The Committee Members Night
The Meet the Committee Members (MCM)
night was held on 8 July, Tuesday at the
Ficus room. This festive event provided
the opportunity for new members to get
acquainted with our General Committee and
Sub-Committee members. More importantly,
the event was held as a welcome gesture
from the club to its new members. MCM
night commenced at 6.30pm as guests
started arriving, smiling and smartly dressed. Merriment
was in the air as new members mingled with committee
members.
Our General Manager took to the stage at 7pm to welcome
members to MCM night as well as inform everyone that
dinner was served. Members were treated to a banquet
of both Asian and Western culinary delights that included
Chicken Chop with a traditional twist, fried rice, Batter-fried
fish and soft shell crab amongst other scrumptious treats.
Members also indulged in desserts galore that included
fashionably French sweet treats such as cream puffs and
chocolate éclairs. Around 7.30pm, our General Manager
introduced the Vice President K.C Foong who delivered a
speech in place of the president.
The Vice President’s speech provided members with a speedy
yet substantial summary of the club’s profitability as well as
developments that were currently underway. To kick things
off, he introduced the General Committee (newly elected as
of 28 March). The Vice-President reassured members that
the club’s lease had recently been extended to the year 2035
by the Singapore Land Authority and that the
lease extension had been fully paid for.
The focus then turned to the upcoming golf
highlights for July and August 2014 along
with other golfing events such as “Juniors on
the Course” organized by Heartland Golf and
the incredibly successful Monday Night Men’s
League. GM updated members present on
upgrading works that had taken place such as the
building of safety nets and car-park maintenance. The proposed
handicap lift for aging members, an upcoming project was also
touched on briefly. Chris Holloway of Heartland Golf Schools
concluded the evening’s events issuing an invitation to parents
to enroll their little ones in the Junior Golfing program. All in all,
MCM night proved to be a highly informative yet enjoyable event
for new members and Committee members alike.

Rolling Of Greens
Recently the Club has invested in the purchases of 4 units of TruTurf EL-Tac R52 Electric Rollers to serve the purpose of carrying
out rolling on the greens.
What is the purpose of rolling the greens?
Lightweight rolling is regarded as a means through which
healthy turfgrass can be created. This of course results in golfer
satisfaction as it increases green speeds and creates a firmer and
smoother surface.
Lightweight rolling on sand based greens does not cause a
decrease in water infiltration or an increase in soil compaction. It
is only under extremely intensive rolling that a reduction in water
infiltration has been observed. In such instances, spiking may
prove helpful in reducing the surface compaction.
Besides increasing ball roll, some of the additional reported
benefits of rolling include less dollar spot occurrence and cutworm
damage.
Rolling after light sand topdressing can also help in moving the
sand down into the turf canopy. The benefits of rolling greens are
therefore not only limited to golfers but yield agronomic benefits
as well.
Ball roll distances are similar between greens mowed at 3.1mm
daily versus greens mowed at 4.0mm daily and rolled 3 times a
week. Mowing at a higher height of cut can also help minimize
stress to the turf. Additionally, ball roll can be maintained or
increased by mowing less frequently and rolling during hot
periods.
While the increase in green speed is noticeable immediately
after rolling, the effect diminishes over the days following the
rolling. From our experience, we have also observed a drop of
approximately 6 inches in the ball-roll distance within 2 hours
after rolling.

Jurong Open
Jurong Open 2014 was a smashing
success with 398 participants vying for
golfing glory in various divisions. The three
day event consisted of Ladies Division on
Friday 22 August, C & Corporate Division
on Saturday 23 August and A & B Division
on Sunday 24 August.
We are pleased to announce that the
overall Champion in the men’s category is
our very own Edwin Pereira who is also a
member of our Golfing Committee.

Every good game should conclude with a
celebration. Golfers indulged in fine dining
and fun frolics at our post game parties over three days and were treated to a
memorable entertainment agenda.
L-R: Lady Captain with Ladies Division overall
Champion, Natasha Wong
T.G.I.F translated to thank god it’s for ladies only on Friday night at the after
party following the Jurong Ladies Open on the 22nd of August. With wine
in hand and dressed to the nines, the ladies made their way into the Ficus
ballroom where an unforgettable girls night in awaited them. The icing on
the cake that evening was of course Captain Ross Tan’s skillful saxophone
renditions of 2 contemporary ballads.
23rd August was a night laced with decadence and delight for Gentleman
Golfers who had participated in the Jurong C & Corporate Division earlier that day.
This glitzy event was held at Fu Lin Men where gentlemen were serenaded by Singer Suzy
Wong whose burlesque ballads served as a prelude to the pole dancing act which was the
sizzling highlight of the evening. The gentlemen also enjoyed a round of fun and games
in the form of an impromptu fashion show where they sashayed down a makeshift catwalk
showing off silverware flaunting their self-concocted cutlery couture.
An auction was also held in which the Jaermann & Stübi Trans-Atlantic timepiece worth
$12,960 as well as Golf lessons with Mark Bates of Heartland Golf were up for grabs. After
some boisterous bidding, the exquisite Swiss Golfing Time Piece was sold at $13,888
and the golf lessons raked in $2,000.
The A & B Division game held on the 24th of August was plagued with relatively unfriendly
weather but gloomy skies outside failed to dampen the spirits of these accomplished golfers
as they made their way to Fu Lin Men restaurant to wind down after a satisfying game.
Entertainment for the evening included Samba girls who gyrated to up-tempo tropical
sounds and posed for photographs. Golfers also exhibited their vocal prowess during the
karaoke session and were rewarded with red packets from their fellow golfers. The highlight
10

of the evening’s entertainment agenda was a mind bending magic show by illusionist Jeremy
Tan whose bag of tricks were impressive and puzzling all at the same time.
All in all the post-game parties served as the perfect ending to three days of exceptional
golfing out on our championship course. Numerous compliments from members and
guests alike relaying how much they enjoyed playing the course specifically due to its
exceptional conditions made Jurong Open 2014 an astounding success.

Golfing Safety Tips
Recently we have received a number of complaints with regards
to dangerous play on the course. The Club would therefore like
to remind golfers to exercise more caution when playing on the
course. Players should not commence playing until the players
in front are out of range. It is the responsibility of all golfers
to ensure that the flights in front are well out of range before
executing their shot even if they have left the green.
Please warn other golfers by shouting if you think your ball may
be in danger of hitting them in front or at another hole. All flight
mates should shout out “fore” at a volume that is loud enough
in order to ensure that other golfers will hear you.
If your shot lands close to other golfers in front or at any hole,
please move forward immediately and apologize to the golfer.
Please do not wait till after the game has ended to apologize.
If your shot landed close to any golfers in front or at any hole, move forward immediately to apologize to the golfers. Do not wait until
after the game to apologize. We are confident that adhering to these simple rules will provide all golfers with a safe and pleasant golfing
experience at our course.

Introducing Our New
Assistant Gym Instructor
The quest to achieve the peak of physical perfection
can sometimes be a daunting task. Your arduous
journey on the road to optimal fitness however does
not have to be travelled alone. Please welcome our
new addition to the JCC fitness team, our Assistant
Gym Instructo Kenric Wan who will be coaching you
alongside our Gym Instructor Yusoff.
We are confident that Kenric’s diverse range of
expertise will go a long way in helping you achieve
your fitness goals.
Wan Xueming Kenric
Kenric comes highly qualified with a 3-year diploma in
Sports and Exercise Science and is currently pursuing a
degree in Exercise and Sports at Edith Cowan University.
The focal point of his expertise is centred on designing
training programmes to facilitate a diverse range of
the population and prescribing nutrition plans
tailor made to your unique fitness requirements.
Kenric’s prior experiences include serving as a personal trainer at
Personal Training Singapore where he formulated fitness programmes
consisting of training, weight supervision and nutrition plans. His diverse
repertoire also extended to being a Physical Education Teacher at Huamin
Primary School where he conducted Physical Education (P.E) lessons for little
ones and assisted the school’s Head of Department of Physical Education in
planning the agenda of school sporting events.
Unleash Your Super Self With Strength Training
By Your Gym Instructor Yusoff
Lifting weights that feel heavier than
what we are used to subjects our
muscles to a considerable degree of
stress weakening them temporarily
in the process. The body’s natural
response to this weakened state
is to rebuild muscles in order to
ensure that they are equipped to
cope with a similar force exerted on
them in future.
Depending on your current level
of strength, and individual goals,
the level of intensity must be high
enough to ensure that the body recognizes the need to make
strength improvements. The intensity must also be repeatedly
increased or the body will get accustomed to it and no additional
improvements will be visible.
One of the more prominent results of weight lifting is the increased
muscle mass which brings forth en entire host of changes in the
body. The first is an increase in metabolism, which basically
speeds up all chemical reactions in the body. A simple analogy
would be in a situation where you gradually press the accelerator
of your car down and the car moves faster utilizing more petrol as
the revs increase. This is effectively what your body does when
your metabolism increases as it is able to move faster, be stronger
and as a result consumes more calories even at rest.
A comprehensive strength training program ensures that your body
will become generally tougher leaving you less susceptible to injury
as you are less likely to suffer breakages if your bones are strong
and are protected by formidable surrounding tissues. Strength
Training also aids in recovery from existing injuries as stronger
muscles around an injured area
can accelerate the healing process.
An excellent training program
should consist of exercises to work
out all parts of the body to ensure
whole body strength as omitting
major muscle groups will result in
imbalances to the detriment of the
individual’s health. Training your
visually enticing muscles only such
as biceps, chest, and abdominals
might seem appealing but will
inevitably result in poor posture
and uneven overall strength.
Safety is paramount in Strength Training as our common goal is
to lead a healthier lifestyle. The integrity of a training program is
of utmost importance in order to ensure that individuals receive
the correct balance of strength while taking into account postural
imbalances and the individual’s goals. Warm up and Cooling Down
exercises are essential to minimizing injuries and maximizing
performance and as such extremely very heavy weights should
only be lifted in the presence of an assistant. All exercises should
promote good posture, typically an open chest, neutral spine and
firm stomach.
Strength training is highly beneficial to those seeking a healthy
lifestyle if the programs are performed safely and with correct
technique. The boost in metabolism aids weight loss and
management, improves posture, reduces chances of injury
and counteracts many of the infirmities that develop with age.
Most importantly lowered cholesterol levels reduce chances
of contracting Coronary Heart Disease. Give your body what it
rightfully deserves and contact me today at 6708 6290.

Captain’s Message
Dear Members,
With September fast approaching, a new year is just around the
corner so please do allow me to provide you with a brief report on
all the latest happenings at our Club since my last message.
Course Closure on Tuesday Mornings
Several members have raised their concerns to us regarding the
Management and Golf Committee’s decision to close the main
course on Tuesday mornings for additional maintenance after each
Monday Night League for the period of 1 September to 8 December
2014. This gesture was in actuality a recommendation of the Golf
Committee as we felt that in order to facilitate the Monday Night
League, regular maintenance on Mondays had to be cut short in
preparation for the shot gun start. Another factor that came into
play was the fact that due to the regular Tuesday night golfing
schedule, there will be insufficient time for the course to rest.
After much deliberation and upon heeding the advice of our
President Bobby Wee, we have decided that in the interest of our
members’ needs, we will not be closing all 18 holes. We have
decided instead to do a rotation of 9 by 9 on alternate Tuesdays.
Please be informed that this arrangement is not permanent and will
only be in effect until the end of this 2nd season. The committee
will therefore deliberate on the pros and cons of continuing
with the Monday Night Men’s League. I do hope that members
understand and continue supporting our policy of maintaining a
balance between the needs of our members and our operational
requirements.
Club Lifestyle Scene
F&B (Food and Beverage) is a vital component of our golfing
package. We are pleased to inform that Lifestyle Chairman
V.Chandranathan reported that food and beverage prices including
beer and stout have been reduced recently. There is also an ongoing daily happy hour promotion which is just one of the many
attractive deals being offered in a bid to improve the quality of food
and services available at our Club. I certainly hope that members
will continue to patronize our F&B outlet Golfers’ Terrace after a
game of golf.
Member Achievements
Jurong Open 2014
The Jurong Open 2014 was held over a 3-day period from the
22nd of August to the 24th of August over 4 categories namely
Ladies which took place on the 22nd, C division and Corporate on
the 23rd and A and B Divisions on the 24th.
Edwin Pereira who is a JCC member along with being a member of
the Golf Committee was crowned overall Jurong Open Champion
2014. Our heartfelt congratulations go out to Edwin!
As this was an open event, we received many entries from both
local and Malaysian clubs which provided us with the opportunity
to showcase our newly renovated course. I am extremely pleased
to report that we received numerous accolades over the course
of this 3-day event complimenting the excellent condition of our
course specifically on the putting green.
I would like to extend my thanks to all members who contributed
to the astounding success of this event either by participating or
sponsorship. Most importantly, I would like to thank all members
for their kind understanding and support with regards to the
course being closed for normal social play over this 3-day period.
All in all we managed to raise some funds required to assist us
in the building of our new short game practice area that will be
located alongside the executive course.
Congratulations are in order for our member Dicky Tan who did our
club proud as part of the winning Singapore team at the recently
concluded 31st ASEAN Senior Amateur Golf Championships held
at Singapore Island Country Club (SICC). Keep our club’s flag
flying high Dicky!
Gentle Reminder on Course Etiquette
We have received numerous requests from members to ban
smoking on the course completely. The Committee felt that
measures had to be implemented in order to effectively tackle the
issue of cigarette butt litter. In order to be fair to all, it has been
decided that smoking will only be allowed at Tee Boxes or inside
the Buggy (for Buggy users only) where an ash tray is present. In
the case of trolley pullers, smoking shall only be allowed at the
Tee Boxes. We would also like to remind all golfers to always fill
divots with sand, rake bunkers and repair ball marks on the Green.
We thank you for your cooperation in eliminating litter on the
course. We would also appreciate your assistance in educating
fellow members on course etiquette. Thank you for your efforts
in keeping our beautiful course pristine for the golfing pleasure
of all.

Meet The Committee Members Night
The Meet the Committee Members (MCM)
night was held on 8 July, Tuesday at the
Ficus room. This festive event provided
the opportunity for new members to get
acquainted with our General Committee and
Sub-Committee members. More importantly,
the event was held as a welcome gesture
from the club to its new members. MCM
night commenced at 6.30pm as guests
started arriving, smiling and smartly dressed. Merriment
was in the air as new members mingled with committee
members.
Our General Manager took to the stage at 7pm to welcome
members to MCM night as well as inform everyone that
dinner was served. Members were treated to a banquet
of both Asian and Western culinary delights that included
Chicken Chop with a traditional twist, fried rice, Batter-fried
fish and soft shell crab amongst other scrumptious treats.
Members also indulged in desserts galore that included
fashionably French sweet treats such as cream puffs and
chocolate éclairs. Around 7.30pm, our General Manager
introduced the Vice President K.C Foong who delivered a
speech in place of the president.
The Vice President’s speech provided members with a speedy
yet substantial summary of the club’s profitability as well as
developments that were currently underway. To kick things
off, he introduced the General Committee (newly elected as
of 28 March). The Vice-President reassured members that
the club’s lease had recently been extended to the year 2035
by the Singapore Land Authority and that the
lease extension had been fully paid for.
The focus then turned to the upcoming golf
highlights for July and August 2014 along
with other golfing events such as “Juniors on
the Course” organized by Heartland Golf and
the incredibly successful Monday Night Men’s
League. GM updated members present on
upgrading works that had taken place such as the
building of safety nets and car-park maintenance. The proposed
handicap lift for aging members, an upcoming project was also
touched on briefly. Chris Holloway of Heartland Golf Schools
concluded the evening’s events issuing an invitation to parents
to enroll their little ones in the Junior Golfing program. All in all,
MCM night proved to be a highly informative yet enjoyable event
for new members and Committee members alike.

Rolling Of Greens
Recently the Club has invested in the purchases of 4 units of TruTurf EL-Tac R52 Electric Rollers to serve the purpose of carrying
out rolling on the greens.
What is the purpose of rolling the greens?
Lightweight rolling is regarded as a means through which
healthy turfgrass can be created. This of course results in golfer
satisfaction as it increases green speeds and creates a firmer and
smoother surface.
Lightweight rolling on sand based greens does not cause a
decrease in water infiltration or an increase in soil compaction. It
is only under extremely intensive rolling that a reduction in water
infiltration has been observed. In such instances, spiking may
prove helpful in reducing the surface compaction.
Besides increasing ball roll, some of the additional reported
benefits of rolling include less dollar spot occurrence and cutworm
damage.
Rolling after light sand topdressing can also help in moving the
sand down into the turf canopy. The benefits of rolling greens are
therefore not only limited to golfers but yield agronomic benefits
as well.
Ball roll distances are similar between greens mowed at 3.1mm
daily versus greens mowed at 4.0mm daily and rolled 3 times a
week. Mowing at a higher height of cut can also help minimize
stress to the turf. Additionally, ball roll can be maintained or
increased by mowing less frequently and rolling during hot
periods.
While the increase in green speed is noticeable immediately
after rolling, the effect diminishes over the days following the
rolling. From our experience, we have also observed a drop of
approximately 6 inches in the ball-roll distance within 2 hours
after rolling.

Jurong Open
Jurong Open 2014 was a smashing
success with 398 participants vying for
golfing glory in various divisions. The three
day event consisted of Ladies Division on
Friday 22 August, C & Corporate Division
on Saturday 23 August and A & B Division
on Sunday 24 August.
We are pleased to announce that the
overall Champion in the men’s category is

and fun frolics at our post game parties over three days and were treated to a
memorable entertainment agenda.
L-R: Lady Captain with Ladies Division overall
Champion, Natasha Wong
T.G.I.F translated to thank god it’s for ladies only on Friday night at the after
party following the Jurong Ladies Open on the 22nd of August. With wine
in hand and dressed to the nines, the ladies made their way into the Ficus
ballroom where an unforgettable girls night in awaited them. The icing on
the cake that evening was of course Captain Ross Tan’s skillful saxophone
renditions of 2 contemporary ballads.
23rd August was a night laced with decadence and delight for Gentleman
Golfers who had participated in the Jurong C & Corporate Division earlier that day.
This glitzy event was held at Fu Lin Men where gentlemen were serenaded by Singer Suzy
Wong whose burlesque ballads served as a prelude to the pole dancing act which was the
sizzling highlight of the evening. The gentlemen also enjoyed a round of fun and games
in the form of an impromptu fashion show where they sashayed down a makeshift catwalk
showing off silverware flaunting their self-concocted cutlery couture.
An auction was also held in which the Jaermann & Stübi Trans-Atlantic timepiece worth
$12,960 as well as Golf lessons with Mark Bates of Heartland Golf were up for grabs. After
some boisterous bidding, the exquisite Swiss Golfing Time Piece was sold at $13,888
and the golf lessons raked in $2,000.
The A & B Division game held on the 24th of August was plagued with relatively unfriendly
weather but gloomy skies outside failed to dampen the spirits of these accomplished golfers
as they made their way to Fu Lin Men restaurant to wind down after a satisfying game.
Entertainment for the evening included Samba girls who gyrated to up-tempo tropical
sounds and posed for photographs. Golfers also exhibited their vocal prowess during the
karaoke session and were rewarded with red packets from their fellow golfers. The highlight
10

of the evening’s entertainment agenda was a mind bending magic show by illusionist Jeremy
Tan whose bag of tricks were impressive and puzzling all at the same time.
All in all the post-game parties served as the perfect ending to three days of exceptional
golfing out on our championship course. Numerous compliments from members and
guests alike relaying how much they enjoyed playing the course specifically due to its
exceptional conditions made Jurong Open 2014 an astounding success.

Golfing Safety Tips
Recently we have received a number of complaints with regards
to dangerous play on the course. The Club would therefore like
to remind golfers to exercise more caution when playing on the
course. Players should not commence playing until the players
in front are out of range. It is the responsibility of all golfers
to ensure that the flights in front are well out of range before
executing their shot even if they have left the green.
Please warn other golfers by shouting if you think your ball may
be in danger of hitting them in front or at another hole. All flight
mates should shout out “fore” at a volume that is loud enough
in order to ensure that other golfers will hear you.
If your shot lands close to other golfers in front or at any hole,
please move forward immediately and apologize to the golfer.
Please do not wait till after the game has ended to apologize.
If your shot landed close to any golfers in front or at any hole, move forward immediately to apologize to the golfers. Do not wait until
after the game to apologize. We are confident that adhering to these simple rules will provide all golfers with a safe and pleasant golfing
experience at our course.

Introducing Our New
Assistant Gym Instructor
The quest to achieve the peak of physical perfection
can sometimes be a daunting task. Your arduous
journey on the road to optimal fitness however does
not have to be travelled alone. Please welcome our
new addition to the JCC fitness team, our Assistant
Gym Instructo Kenric Wan who will be coaching you
alongside our Gym Instructor Yusoff.
We are confident that Kenric’s diverse range of
expertise will go a long way in helping you achieve
your fitness goals.
Wan Xueming Kenric
Kenric comes highly qualified with a 3-year diploma in
Sports and Exercise Science and is currently pursuing a
degree in Exercise and Sports at Edith Cowan University.
The focal point of his expertise is centred on designing
training programmes to facilitate a diverse range of
the population and prescribing nutrition plans
tailor made to your unique fitness requirements.
Kenric’s prior experiences include serving as a personal trainer at
Personal Training Singapore where he formulated fitness programmes
consisting of training, weight supervision and nutrition plans. His diverse
repertoire also extended to being a Physical Education Teacher at Huamin
Primary School where he conducted Physical Education (P.E) lessons for little
ones and assisted the school’s Head of Department of Physical Education in
planning the agenda of school sporting events.
Unleash Your Super Self With Strength Training
By Your Gym Instructor Yusoff
Lifting weights that feel heavier than
what we are used to subjects our
muscles to a considerable degree of
stress weakening them temporarily
in the process. The body’s natural
response to this weakened state
is to rebuild muscles in order to
ensure that they are equipped to
cope with a similar force exerted on
them in future.
Depending on your current level
of strength, and individual goals,
the level of intensity must be high
enough to ensure that the body recognizes the need to make
strength improvements. The intensity must also be repeatedly
increased or the body will get accustomed to it and no additional
improvements will be visible.
One of the more prominent results of weight lifting is the increased
muscle mass which brings forth en entire host of changes in the
body. The first is an increase in metabolism, which basically
speeds up all chemical reactions in the body. A simple analogy
would be in a situation where you gradually press the accelerator
of your car down and the car moves faster utilizing more petrol as
the revs increase. This is effectively what your body does when
your metabolism increases as it is able to move faster, be stronger
and as a result consumes more calories even at rest.
A comprehensive strength training program ensures that your body
will become generally tougher leaving you less susceptible to injury
as you are less likely to suffer breakages if your bones are strong
and are protected by formidable surrounding tissues. Strength
Training also aids in recovery from existing injuries as stronger
muscles around an injured area
can accelerate the healing process.
An excellent training program
should consist of exercises to work
out all parts of the body to ensure
whole body strength as omitting
major muscle groups will result in
imbalances to the detriment of the
individual’s health. Training your
visually enticing muscles only such
as biceps, chest, and abdominals
might seem appealing but will
inevitably result in poor posture
and uneven overall strength.
Safety is paramount in Strength Training as our common goal is
to lead a healthier lifestyle. The integrity of a training program is
of utmost importance in order to ensure that individuals receive
the correct balance of strength while taking into account postural
imbalances and the individual’s goals. Warm up and Cooling Down
exercises are essential to minimizing injuries and maximizing
performance and as such extremely very heavy weights should
only be lifted in the presence of an assistant. All exercises should
promote good posture, typically an open chest, neutral spine and
firm stomach.
Strength training is highly beneficial to those seeking a healthy
lifestyle if the programs are performed safely and with correct
technique. The boost in metabolism aids weight loss and
management, improves posture, reduces chances of injury
and counteracts many of the infirmities that develop with age.
Most importantly lowered cholesterol levels reduce chances
of contracting Coronary Heart Disease. Give your body what it
rightfully deserves and contact me today at 6708 6290.
