“They say money cannot buy your health, but in this case, it definitely can. No investment is too large when it comes to your personal well-being. You just need to find a coach who understands you, show up consistently, and trust the process. That way, you can have your cake and eat it, just occasionally.”
I have always been plus-sized, and by that I mean double or even triple plus! Before training with Surge, I was severely overweight, completely out of shape, and had trouble keeping up with my friends. I was breathless with every little workout, and my body was always aching everywhere.
I guess fitness-wise and health-wise, I was in my prime during officer cadet school in national service. Since then, it has been downhill. I’ve tried many different diets and exercise regimes. Sometimes they worked, and I lost some weight, but it always came back with a vengeance. Since I’m hitting the big 5-0 soon, I thought, why not try to reclaim my health and recapture some of my former glory.
The training at Surge is not easy. There are two parts: the physical training and the nutrition plan. It was a struggle, clocking my daily steps, doing my cardio, working out with the weights, checking what I was eating, and making sure I hit my macros. It was tough! But it paid dividends. In under 6 months, I lost 24 kg and cut my body fat by 16%. And I still get to enjoy my Bak chor mee!
