Why train at home when the CBD is one stop away?
Because one stop on the NEL still means walking to HarbourFront, riding to Outram or Chinatown, walking to a studio, and reversing it afterwards. That is an hour on top of the session, and the studios there charge for prime floor space. Most Telok Blangah residents already have a good gym downstairs at Keppel Bay or The Interlace, or a flat in Telok Blangah Crescent with enough floor for a full programme. Home personal training uses what you already have.

Can you train on the Southern Ridges?
Yes, and for conditioning it is hard to beat. Telok Blangah Hill Park is 34 hectares off Henderson Road with a Terrace Garden at the top and an elevated walkway through the canopy; Mount Faber Park is 56 hectares next door with the 700-metre Marang Trail and Faber Point. Henderson Waves joins them. A coach can build a session out of hill repeats, stairs and bodyweight strength on the lawns without any equipment at all. Both parks are open 24 hours; 6.30am and after 7pm are the sensible windows, and the ridge catches a breeze that a flat field does not.
What do Keppel Bay and Telok Blangah condo gyms have?
The Keppel Bay developments and The Interlace have some of the best-equipped condo gyms in the country: racks, cable stations, full dumbbell runs and enough cardio kit that a coach never needs to bring more than a band. Older blocks along Telok Blangah Road are thinner, and the coach plans around it with adjustable dumbbells and a mat. See condo gym personal training for how the programme is built around the room.
