Is High Intensity Training For Me? Steven Tries 5 Workouts: Spin, HIIT, Boxfit, CrossFit & Spartan




We love putting #TalkingPoint presenter and dad-jokes machine Steven Chia through challenges. For this digital exclusive episode, Steven tries out 5 high intensity workouts over two weeks: Boxing conditioning, HIIT, spin, CrossFit, and a Spartan training session. What are the different fitness goals among these 5 workouts? Which one gave Steven the biggest burn? Typically, Steven works out once or twice a week, at the gym or playing squash or tennis. It’s the first time he’s switching up his routine so intensively (other than in his National Service days). With more folks turning to high intensity exercise, what should they know before they go? What are some common injuries and how can you avoid them? How to get the max out of each workout? How many days should you rest in between workouts? Five fitness instructors and Dr Tan Chin Yik, of Singapore Sports and Orthopaedic Clinic at Gleneagles Medical Centre, share their tips. 00:00 Tips from a sports medicine doctor 02:18 Spin at GroundZero 04:24 HIIT with a cardio focus at F45 (Boat Quay outlet) 06:22 Boxing conditioning at Legends Fight Sport 08:41 CrossFit at Crossfit Urban Edge 10:40 Spartan Bootcamp at Ministry of Fitness 12:42 Recovery and rest day tips Steven’s previous challenges include eating fried chicken for two weeks (https://youtu.be/E6AmanX1bgM), drinking bubble tea for a month (https://youtu.be/piqrRdgppPo), and intermittent fasting (https://youtu.be/QNJ3fJT2qY8).
