Meet Coach Sharm
Straits Times, 10 Feb 2013
Welcome to GuruFitness.com! I’m Coach Sharm and I want to help you achieve a fitter, healthier you!
I am a personal trainer in Singapore who champions the famous ancient Athenian concept of “a sound mind in a sound body”. It expounds the idea that physical activities can be used to develop all aspects of the body – mind, body and spirit.
We can improve our health and quality of life by including moderate amounts of physical activity in our daily lives. Health benefits from physical activity are definitely achievable for most of us, including those of us who dislike vigorous exercise and ones who were previously discouraged by following a difficult vigorous exercise program.
GuruFitness.com is a website and blog dedicated to share with you all the information I know about achieving the ideal fitness lifestyle. This includes tips, ideas and strategies on how to get fitter and look good by applying simple scientific principles of fitness in our lives.
Of course, I would be truly honored to have you take me up as your personal trainer. As your trainer, I will pour my heart and soul to help you achieve your full fitness potential.
Yes! I also fully understand your excitement of starting an exercise program, but I do strongly suggest that you check with your family doctor first before you start any physical activity to ensure that you are have the O.K. to exercise. It’s better to be safe than sorry!
In the meantime, here’s a little about me:
