Fats: Some facts that you may want to know.

Do you know that if you eliminate all the fat in you body, you will be dead in about 6 weeks?

What are the main functions of fats?

Fats cushions the vital organs, and insulates our body. It also stores energy and help utilise certain vitamins.

Fats help the body to produce a hormone called CCK (Nope its not Choa Chu Kang). The CCK sends signal to the brain saying it is full! Fats satisfy hunger longer! Further, fats slows down the conversion of carbohydrates into glucose.

When I first met Sharm, I told him that I need a personal trainer to help me attain 10kgs of pure muscle mass within a 2 month period. It's been 1 and half month and I'm already gained 12kgs!

Nicholas Neo

My previous trainer used to put me on heavy weights workout which made my body too big. When I switched to Sharm as my personal trainer, he asked me about my goals and designed my workouts accordingly. Its been 2 years with him as a trainer and my figure have never looked better. It is toned and proportionate and I'm definitely much happier with him as my personal trainer.
