Speaking in the Health Carnival @Sembawang Shipyard

I was honoured to be invited to Sembawang Shipyard to talk about Sports injury prevention on their 3 days Health Carnival. All Thanks to Mr Luke Hung, Mr Rosli and Khalis for their great help and assistance.

It was my first time visiting a shipyard and seriously, it's huge... It was rather interesting to see the workers and staff cycling around the shipyard as it is really too far a distance to walk from one place to another. I didn't have the chance to explore further, as my main objective is to deliver a Health talk. There were booths and stores by external vendors selling health products and game stores with Xbox gaming for prizes waiting to be won!

I was given an hour slot to share about basic understanding of running, common injuries and how to prevent it by demonstrating stretching exercises.


Looked a little serious...

Topic of the Day!

Very Serious and Attentive Participants..

Not too serious please..


At last a smile was spotted!

Try to reach for your elbows, opps, sorry.. Try to stretch your Biceps :P

Understanding the importance of hipflexors and how it will cause backaches.

Did you see what's on the screen??

Many companies are very concerned about the well being and the health and fitness of their employees. I supposed the welfare of their staff are really well taken care off. It can be seen from these initiatives by bringing external vendors to conduct training sessions/workouts and talk/workshops to increase the awareness of healthy living. The trend has been significantly increasing, especially in the corporate world. I hope I can be of some help to the office crowd, giving them more ideas to workout even in their restricted small workplace - Introducing Theraband!

We will talk more about the Theraband in the next post :)
