Ultimate Performance Singapore
At Ultimate Performance Singapore (U.P.), it's all about no-nonsense training; the gym's proven "maximum results, minimum time" method was designed for those who mean business and want to achieve significant, hard-evidence results. (If you're looking for a one-hour, once-weekly workout, this place isn't for you!).
Situated in the CBD's Manulife Tower, the private training facility goes beyond what a standard personal trainer would do at a commercial gym. U.P. takes an all-encompassing approach, customising realistic solutions for each client's individual lifestyle, ability and goals. So, in addition to weight-based, high-intensity workouts that have clients burning fat long after they leave the gym, there's everything from advice on diet and supplements to travel health, and stress and sleep tips. This means you not only get a physical transformation but a lifestyle overhaul too.
In addition to a sleek, 9,000-square-foot indoor space that's dedicated to personal training, U.P. has an outdoor area where semiprivate group classes are held. The gym's got a shake bar, too, where gym-goers can grab pre- or post-workout protein shakes, coffee and even intra-workout drinks.
U.P. clients can also sign up for EatUP, a weekday meal service that aims to help individuals eat healthily through a selection of high-protein, low-carb dishes.
