Training Protege for aerobic performance

Malek and i was given a task to select our proteges and train them up for an aerobic workout performance during Futsal 1 Malaysia Festival. We both pick our own choices and we later narrowed the names down to 10. Unfortunately some of the names that were chosen could not make it for the training and the show due to some other work commitments.

Malek must be really tired training and commenting on the proteges' movements

the latest addition from left : Fendy from Malacca and Ralph Abdullah from Kuala Lumpur. I hope you guys are happy to join the bandwagon



The guys are a bit off beat bouncing on the fitball but they finally managed to master the bounce. Honestly i had qualms on the guys' abitility and fortunately they had proved me wrong. I know this is not an easy task for a beginner.



stretching after the workout and i instructed them to rest for the nite and no more playing pranks on each other. They are a restless lot! On the far right is another new addition Hussein from Johor



fond memories for these guys because they had to camp in MAM studio for a few nites to work on their routines.




Malek and yours truly

Aerobics/Group Fitness Class

Every Monday i teach at an international oil company in Cyberjaya. I have been doing workouts with these ladies for more than a year now. These ladies are very enthusiastic and show a lot interest and progress in their fitness level.





eheh... so cute aaa you cheated...hihihi its ok, like i always said 'listen to your own body'



Maria (the one in white) is one of the pioneers in the class




Wah Leng (green shorts) seldom misses the class although i know she is a very busy woman





some of the new faces (im sorry i didnt get your names)



sometimes i challenged their capabilities but no one made a sound... pheww....


I normally start with an aerobic session and then muscle conditioning/strength training and end with a stretch


What i like most about these ladies is that they are punctual and i can always start my class on the dot.





come on....bear with me....we have another 2 and a half minutes to go




ahhhaaaa....playful or probably trying to distract me (pssstttt.....she cheating...ehehehe)




The happy bunch, always smiling and welcoming
