To
start
with
a
TLDR:
Training
with
Ultimate
Performance
Singapore
will
probably
be
the
best
investment
you
will
ever
make
for
your
health
and
fitness.
I
came
to
UP
from
another
gym
and
another
personal
trainer.
The
experience
will
probably
be
like
most
people
in
Singapore,
where
the
trainer
only
cares
about
the
workouts
you
do
with
them
in
the
gym,
and
otherwise
doesn’t
bother
tracking
anything
else
that
matters,
like
what
you
eat,
your
daily
activity,
or
even
your
recovery
in
the
form
of
how
much
you
sleep.
Most
commercial
gyms
in
Singapore
are
set
up
this
way,
just
to
keep
you
coming
back
for
session
after
session,
and
they’re
not
interested
in
educating
or
equipping
you
with
the
skills
you
need
to
make
it
on
your
own.
Ultimate
Performance
has
a
completely
different
approach,
as
well
as
a
different
business
model.
It
works
like
an
apprenticeship
where
you
acquire
the
skills
involved
necessary
to
keep
this
healthy
lifestyle
sustainable
for
the
long
term,
on
your
own,
even
after
you
have
finished
training
with
them
Here’s
a
look
at
what
the
training
experience
is
like
as
a
client.
After
getting
matched
with
your
trainer
(which
does
involve
a
wait
time
of
several
weeks,
as
they
are
always
in
high
demand),
they
will
do
a
full
assessment
of
your
previous
training
history
(or
lack
thereof),
dietary
habits,
as
well
as
previous
injuries,
to
customize
and
plan
out
an
approach
to
both
nutrition
and
exercise
that
would
work
well
for
you.
I
was
assigned
to
Boon
Siang,
who
was
a
perfect
fit
in
terms
of
both
temperament
and
character,
and
who
has
been
amazing
throughout
this
journey
Subsequently,
with
the
help
of
their
app,
I
would
log
my
daily
weight,
step
count,
hydration
status,
sleep
duration
and
nutrition
for
my
trainer
to
review.
You
are
also
able
to
access
all
the
results
from
your
previous
workouts
as
well
as
the
regular
2
weekly
bodyfat%
measurements
and
progress
photos
were
available
for
review,
to
show
all
the
progress
made
thus
far,
and
to
keep
you
motivated.
It
is
truly
mindboggling
to
see
how
I
started
at
45kg
for
a
trap
bar
deadlift,
and
have
since
progressed
to
150kg
for
6
reps,
at
a
bodyweight
of
65kg
Beyond
just
the
day-to-day
habits
above,
I
also
got
a
crash
course
in
eating
healthy
and
resistance
training
principles,
as
well
as
how
to
apply
it
practically
to
everyday
situations,
and
local
foods.
I
fundamentally
changed
the
way
I
approach
eating
as
a
result,
and
now
balance
both
the
hedonistic
pleasure
of
eating,
together
with
the
actual
nutritional
content
of
the
food
itself.
After
24
weeks
with
UP,
I
had
dropped
10kg
in
total
weight,
gained
a
significant
amount
of
strength
and
competence
in
my
lifts,
and
managed
to
reach
12%
bodyfat,
which
is
pictured.
So
what
makes
the
difference?
The
equipment
may
look
about
the
same
when
you
walk
through
the
door,
but
the
key
difference
maker
is
in
the
people.
There’s
no
broscience
here,
they
bring
the
best
evidence-based
practices
from
fitness
literature,
and
track
every
single
piece
of
data
that
matters,
to
leave
nothing
to
chance.
Their
trainers
undergo
weekly
workshops
so
that
everyone
is
on
the
same
page,
and
their
CEO
and
founder,
Nick
Mitchell,
makes
it
a
point
to
fly
to
every
UP
branch,
to
ensure
that
the
same
high
standards
are
adhered
to
internationally.
Rest
assured
that
you
are
guaranteed
one
of
the
best
personal
training
experiences
that
currently
exist.
The
main
concern
for
most
people
contemplating
UP
would
be
the
price
of
their
services,
which
is
understandable.
However
as
a
medical
professional,
there
is
no
medication,
procedure
or
surgery
that
will
give
you
comparable
results,
and
for
the
rest
of
your
life.
I
would
ask
you
to
reframe
the
cost
not
in
terms
of
per
hour
of
training,
per
day
of
support
from
your
trainer,
or
even
on
a
per
week
basis,
but
rather
divided
by
the
rest
of
your
life.
Because
that’s
what
you
really
paying
for,
a
lifetime’s
worth
of
healthy
eating
habits
and
competence
in
the
weights
room
even
after
you
leave
the
doors
of
UP.
