Grand Opening of Reebok's Flagship Store in Singapore

This June holiday has been really interesting and one of the highlights was to be able to attend the grand opening of Reebok’s first ever flagship store in Singapore. I’ve always been a fan of Reebok’s sportswear but realised that different outlets of Royal Sporting House carry different products. So more often than not, I’ll drop by multiple Royal Sporting House outlets. Quite hardworking…I know….


The Reebok Flagship store will be the only store in the entire country to carry the complete sports and lifestyle collection across all categories that include Running, Training, Studio (Cardio/Dance/Yoga), Crossfit, Walking and Casual (Reebok Classic). How cool is that, right?

Address: Suntec City Mall, North Wing (Between Towers 1 & 2) #02-468,
3 Temasek Boulevard, Singapore 038983
During the grand opening, we got to learn about Reebok’s latest line of fitness wear and how it can be easily integrated into everyone’s day to day casual outfits. I love the way the outfits can be layered to suit your individual fitness lifestyle.

We were also introduced to the Reebok ZPump Fusion, the latest addition to the Pump series. It was launched earlier this year in the US and I was really looking forward to this pair of kicks.


Here’s a short clip about the new ZPump Fusion:


Pump technology – The revolutionary air-filled cage is lightweight and fully customizable that pumps up and wraps around the individual shapes and contours of the foot to deliver a custom, locked-in fit to achieve maximum performance.


I used to own a pair of Reebok pump basketball shoes and loved the design as well as the technology.  But the newest pump technology is truly impressive! =)

S$169 at all Stadium and Royal Sporting House stores (except JCube and outlet stores)
How can Reebok end their grand opening without getting the invited guests to try on their latest outfit for a workout right? Most of us came in work attire and were not ready for a workout. So what Reebok did was to give everyone a set of their latest range of fitness wear and got us to test it out on the spot. I really loved the idea! As good as the products look and as good as they sound, they simply have to work!

For those who were ready to try out Reebok’s latest sportswear, we were tasked to go through a fitness circuit, comprising of 5 stations: Push ups, Squats, Bicep Curl, Up right rows & a yoga pose
We had to perform each movement for 1 minute and the objective is to get as many reps as possible.





And after the short challenge, I was glad to clinch the 2nd runner up position with 1 month free fitness first pass=)


Thank you Reebok for having me at your awesome Grand Opening of the flagship store and a bigger thank you for your commitment to producing great fitness products!

For the grand opening of Reebok’s Flagship store, receive a limited edition Reebok shoebag with a minimum net purchase of $150. While stocks last!

Road to better complexion: Venus Viva Treatment (Part 2)

Hey guys, I’m here today to give you guys an update on the progress of my face treatment with Venus Viva. Before I begin this update, I’ll like to give you guys a quick recap on what Venus Viva is about =)


For those of you who have read part 1, Click here  =)


Venus viva is a revolutionary, patented, effective and impressive medical device from Israel using NanofractionalRadiofrequency(RF) and a SmartScan technology to treat acne scars, improve skin laxity and facial rejuvenation.

This advanced technology allows deep and uniform penetration of radiofrequency heat energy into the epidermis(superficial) and dermis(deep layers of the skin) to ablate and coagulate the skin resulting in micro-wounds.

Healing of the micro-wounds results in regeneration of new collagen and tightening of collagen to repair the skin and reduce the depths of the acne scars.

So I signed up for a package of 6 sessions in March and I’m getting my sessions done once a month. I’ve currently completed 3 sessions so it’s a good time for me to do some progress check.

So here’s a photo of my complexion before Venus Viva:

And here are some photos taken on my 3rd treatment:

As my skin is able to take the intensity of the past treatment, Dr Lim continued to increase the intensity. For the past 2 treatments, I did not get anyone asking anything about the redness on my face. Maybe because it’s just too mild. But after the 3rd treatment, I finally had someone commenting about my face! I went to pick Limaran up from work and a personal trainer there saw my face and asked if I went for a laser treatment on my face. The reason why he could tell was because he was undergoing a similar treatment on his face! How cool is that?!? =) He also told me that the he really loved the results he was getting so far.

As the intensity of the treatment for session 3 was stronger, the redness stayed on for a couple more days. Here a photo of my complexion after 1.5 weeks from session 3.



I’m really starting to see some really good progress on my complexion and L is also telling me that the pores on my face are starting to tighten up. I used to really hate taking photos under strong fluorescent lighting as they are really harsh and unforgiving.

But here’s a photo of L and I under an unforgiving lighting and I think my complexion is holding up quite well.  =)



I’m very confident that the 3 remaining sessions that I have left will continue to improve my complexion.
