Personally, I went to the branch at Choa Chu Kang Block 202 at the basement. I thought it was pretty difficult to get there because it didn't know of blocks having basements. Well, I managed to find my way there.
I'm awed by how Contours Express managed to open a ladies gym out of given space in a HDB unit. It's Contours Express' 9th anniversary this year! The moment I reached there, I was greeted by a friendly staff named Angel. She's the instructor for my 29 minutes circuit training. Another instructor was there too, named Enelyn. I've learnt from Angel that the branch at CCK is already 7 years old! Totally have no clue about it. Before I start the trainings, she first had to understand my health and exercise background. After which, she did a body/mass/fats analysis.
(Err. Apparently I'm unhealthy. Gotta jog more often)
Before the real thing commenced, I had to do warming up for 6 minutes. Pretty alright even though it's kind of tiring, but I can still endure this! While on the machine for 6 minutes, I strike a conversation with a macik. She has been exercising at Contours Express for almost 9 months! From her verbal testimonial, it's really effective as she shed some inches off and became healthier. She can do better board-works than me!!
I have to go through the different stations twice. Using each machine and each boards for 45 seconds and will be prompted by a voice through the speaker to change to the next station. I don't have to worry much as Angel will guide me through how to use the machines the correct way.
I really have no idea why I'm so bad at coordinations. That explains why I'm still quite lousy in dance aspects. HAHA.
Angel took a picture of Evelyn and me in the same picture. They are really super friendly I must say! After the circuit trainings, I was told to measure my heart beat rate and gotten 26 beats per minute which is not enough to burn fats effectively. I must attain at least 28 beats. I then proceeded on to some core workouts with Angel's guidance and then Enelyn took over for my stretching exercises. I felt pretty much exhausted right after the circuit trainings and some core exercises! Well, I can't really tell if it is effective for me as I've only did one trial.
After everything ended, Enelyn briefed me through the packages and nope, they didn't do hardsell at all. :) I managed to take a post workout selfie with Enelyn though, as Angel had already knocked off. Nonetheless, it's a great session with them! For ladies who are shy to go to public gyms, you can give Contours Express a try as there will be trainers around to guide you along and customize your workout regime based on your targeted goals! I was quite embarrassed to say when Angel asked me if I went to any gym before and I said I did go to public gyms but only using the treadmill and those cycling machines as there will be guys using the rest of the machines and fear of getting judged if we don't use them correctly hahaha. With trainers around, it gives me more motivation to work out!
