SINGAPORE : One in four Singaporean adults exercise regularly,
according to a recent survey.
But it is those who do not that the Health Promotion Board wants to
target for its new workout.
It looks tougher than the Great Singapore workout, but promises to
give you the exercise you need if you do it three times a
week.
"Fitness-At-Work" is a series of 20-minute sessions choreographed
to suit people of different fitness levels.
And more than 1,000 people from four different companies turned up
at Orchard Road to get their dose of exercise.
Leading the way is Indranee Rajah, MP for Tanjong Pagar GRC, who
work outs three times a week despite clocking 14-hour days at
work!
Ms Indranee said: "Most people will say, "okay next week I'm going
to exercise", and they would throw themselves and then they get
exhausted and they fizzle out. So the important thing is to do it
little bits at a time and make it a part of a routine."
Fitness instructors will be there just next to Orchard MRT every
Friday evening for the next two months. - CNA/de
