FlyFight @ FlyProject
2018 continues the rhythm of trying new things as we add FlyFight to our Spartan training plan. What is FlyFight? It’s a new class introduced by FlyProject (the company that brought us FlyCycle). In a nutshell, it is a boxing class. The instructor teaches you how to punch and what rhythms to punch with. Oh yes,Continue reading “FlyFight @ FlyProject”
Supplementary Training on the Wii Fit
Training when the kids are on holidays is not easy because I can’t exactly take them with me to my classes. So here’s what I do when I can’t squeeze in my usual workouts… Wii Fit Training Yep. I dust off the old Wii Fit Board and do a Hula-Hoop/Rhythm Boxing/Step Combo and follow itContinue reading “Supplementary Training on the Wii Fit”
Bootybarre Babes at Zenith Pilates
2017 was a year of firsts for the Jungle Babes. We broke out of our comfort zone and tried a lot of new activities that was a first for many of us: Ice Skating Zumbathon SkyTrex Big Thrill and Extreme Challenge Rock Climbing – yes, not my first time ever, but first time back in afterContinue reading “Bootybarre Babes at Zenith Pilates”
Lapping it up at the Pool
The boys wanted a break from the gym, and G1 promised to do laps at the pool so I decided to join them as well. They say you should shake things up a bit and vary your exercise routine so your body doesn’t get a chance to adapt. It is also a good way toContinue reading “Lapping it up at the Pool”
Jungle Babes in the Saddle
The Flycycle neophyte is back in the saddle. This time, in the company of Babes. Jungle Babes, to be precise. Or would that make us Flycycle Babes since we’ve traded our hiking boots for a pair of cleated shoes? I must confess that I am grateful for the camaraderie because I struggle to find theContinue reading “Jungle Babes in the Saddle”
Zumba Babes at a Charity Zumbathon
One of our very own Jungle Babes organised a Zumbathon charity event at MyTown Shopping Center in support of those fighting the battle against cancer. You’ll Never Walk Alone Just like the title of this event, we couldn’t let her walk alone, so here we were… …busting a move even when some of us didn’t haveContinue reading “Zumba Babes at a Charity Zumbathon”
Mech-Warriors in Cross-Training
After reading Spark, I decided it was high time that I took the boys’ physical training to the next level. Our focus for G1 was to improve his overall fitness for health reasons because he’s been allergic to physical exertion since he was little. For G2, I was inspired to build his physical fitness afterContinue reading “Mech-Warriors in Cross-Training”
Tales from a Flycycle Neophyte
Ever a glutton for punishment, I went back for my second dose of pain at Flycycle. I even got a poser picture for the memories because I am never ever coming back… …except, of course, that I will. Didn’t I just say I’m a glutton for punishment? I was all prepared to take another beating and crawl homeContinue reading “Tales from a Flycycle Neophyte”
Flycycle at the Verve
There’s a new fitness gym at the Verve called Flycycle. It’s basically a studio devoted to spin classes with a spin (sorry, I couldn’t resist the pun). Anyway, here’s what they have to say about their classes: “…we take indoor-spinning to the next level by combining dynamic 45 minute full-body workouts, neon lighting and theContinue reading “Flycycle at the Verve”
