6 Months Client Progress 💫
We started with a goal of building muscles and improving strength
And has been consistently training for 2X per week 😘

Besides PT sessions, she also swims twice a week as her cardio.
6 months after, not only posture changes that we observed, but she could also engage lats better,
and catch water better in swimming! 🥰

Fitness is not always about losing weights,
but the ability to MOVE better!
Can’t wait to see more changes and more to come! ❤️
It’s been 3 years training-sary with @mellysarl this year!
You have came so far and I’m still grateful to be part of this journey! 🥰
.

Progress takes time, and habit takes time to establish.
From the mindset shift of “I feel like skipping training today” to
“I NEED to train to feel good again”
…
is one of the biggest changes that I observed from @mellysarl 🥰

Mom of 2, having a full time job,
But still managed to squeeze in time between packed schedule to train is such a #commitment ! 🫡
So proud of you and more to come! ❤️

“Brace your core”, “Engage your core”
👆 Here are few terms that we always heard in training or working out.
🥴 We all know that engaging core is #important to keep #stability in movement…
whereas what most of the people’s perception in engaging core is that they #squeeze in the tummy or #hold the breath when they think of bracing the core
🏹 Let’s first understand #core bracing:
- Core bracing involves the contraction of:
abdominals, pelvic floor (muscles that hold your urine) and diaphragm. ✨ Keeping a STRONG CORE is helpful to:
🌟 Create #stability especially when lifting heavy weights.
(Ex: Compound moves like squats, deadlifts.)
🌟 Provide better #force transfer between the upper and lower limbs
🚨 So where is the CORE?
- It locates in the midsection of body (top of pelvis and bottom of the ribs) 💭 How to BRACE CORE?
1️⃣ Place Fingers on both sides of the midsections.
2️⃣ Contract the Pelvic Floor (think of holding your pee) 3️⃣ Now we COMBINE 1️⃣ + 2️⃣
- Think of pushing both fingers away, & create a tightness around the abdominal (bracing abdominal)➕
- Holding the Pee (contracting the pelvic floor) ➕
- While maintaining Breathing
✨Now let’s add these tips in your training, see whether it helps better in your lift.

I used to chase for #more weight loss,
Used to train 6X a week, not because of enjoying it,
but fear of gaining weight back,
.
.
.
7 years into fitness,
and realising the goal is NOT about getting leaner and leaner,
BUT better #control over myself
.
.
The sooner you realise, the sooner you understand that:
1️⃣ You get to control body better,
2️⃣ You are not afraid of weight rebound and knowing how to bring it back
3️⃣ Not getting anxious about body image,
And most importantly
you are HAPPIER and STRONGER than ever!
