Personal Training Client: Jacqueline
Age: 10
Occupation: Student
Personal Trainer: Nelson Chong & Karen Goh
My daughter Jacqueline's weight was tipping at 54kg at age 10 which was almost twice the weight compared to children of her age before her personal training. Her self esteem was completely gone because of her size and bulging tummy. She was also being teased frequently by nicknames in school & even her brothers laughed at her for being a little fat kid.
Both Nelson & Karen were able to quickly identify the root cause of the problem that Jacqueline was malnutrition which affected her metabolism. Combined with sound nutrition, good eating habits & fun-filled variety of functional training exercises, Jacqueline finally dropped her weight to 45 kg in 2 months. She now looks healthier with better posture, slimmer waist & cheerful smile.

Some years back, I was diagnosed with ostopinic - a medical term indicative of low bone denisty. The doctor's adviced me that regular exercise was my only saving grace. I was caught completely off-guard as I had never been to a gym before.
I have been training with Karen for years now. I look forward to the sessions with her as she ensures that each session is uniquely crafted to help me maximize my potential. Together, we set challenging yet achievable fitness goals. Because of her efforts, I am stronger and more flexible. From having never lifted weights, today I can proudly lift a decent 10 kilograms. Weight training has significantly strengthened my bones and my bone density has shown remarkable improvement. I have better balance and most importantly, working out has become fun. From someone who had never stepped into a gym, it surprises me how exercise can be so addictive - if I miss a day I feel guilty. Karen has helped to find the gym buff in me, which I never knew existed.

At our first session, I explained to Nelson about my old ankle injury. Because of this injury, my left ankle is very weak and that affects my stability. My husband and I love dancing but I have never been able to do it well because of my lack of balance. As we discussed my injury and my fears, I became convinced that Nelson knew exactly what he was talking about and how to help me to get where I wanted to go. Perhaps Nelson could help me improve my balance. I had consulted an orthopaedic surgeon about my ankle problem and all he wanted to do was to operate on the ankle. The ankle hurts periodically and I have come to accept that the pain will always be there and my focus was on how to manage the pain. Perhaps Nelson could help me in this too. My wish list to Nelson began to grow as we talked and he explained to me how we could, over time, improve my physical well-being. Strangely enough, the weight issue became secondary. I just wanted to be a stronger person so I could dance better and have less pain in the process.
