One ship drives east and another drives west
With the selfsame winds that blow.
‘Tis the set of the sails
And not the gales
Which tells us the way to go.

Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate,
As we voyage along through life:
‘Tis the set of the soul
That decides its goal,
And not the calm or the strife.

Have you checked out your attitude towards life today?

When first time visitors come to my gym, they often have similar goals. Fat loss, muscle gain, better performance, better health etc.

One of the questions they often ask is “what are the average results that people get”.
That is a fair question. But not a very good one.

I’m not looking for people who want to be average! The commitment, time, energy, and money that you would spend on good coaching, should not leave you with an “average” experience, or average results.

Ask me “what is the BEST result you have ever seen” – and aim to be even better!

Being average is NOT why people join Singapore’s best Gym for personal training, or fitness bootcamps!

George Washington Carver - Working With Great Intent!

As a Fitness Coach here in Singapore, I know that many personal training, and athlete clients want it all and they want it now.

That’s good! And as a coach and as a fitness professional my staff and I keep up to date on the latest in science and practice so that we can deliver results!

But in fitness, just like in many things, focus is critical. You can’t lose fat really fast and gain muscle really fast at the same time! You can’t improve your vertical jump and your 10km run time fast at the same time… and so the list goes on…

I like the saying of Dr George Washington Carver (not the US president). He was a scientist who discovered more than 300 uses of the peanut and these uses made peanut production popular and made his state of Alabama rich.
He was wondering what to research on and realized that he needed to

“Decrease the EXTENT and increase the INTENT”

Thus he ended up focusing on just 1 thing… the peanut! HE got great results.
Part of coaching is helping clients to focus on one thing at a time so that they get consistent results. Too much extent with too little intent = nothing!

Do you need an extra boost of INTENT. Check out our programs which are all goal oriented and focused on helping you achieve your best results ever.

Yup... That Goes For All Of Us!

Yup... That Goes For All Of Us!

Don’t get me wrong. Our staff and I are some of the most caring people you will ever meet! We encourage, we do our best to meet your needs, and we are open and honest about everything we do at the Genesis Performance Center.

On thing that is NOT ok… is whining. Negative talk KILLS the positive and encouraging training environment and culture that we have worked hard to provide our clients. So if whining is what you want to do, please do us all a favor and go to another gym!

Don’t be like this guy… he is in prison and is whining that the prison food is making him lose weight. Uh… he lost weight from 180kg to 140kg. That is actually good for him!
