Temasek Club Hello 2018!
Temasek Club welcomed 2018 and ended an eventful 2017 on a high note. Held at the Laager on 31 De-cember, the venue was � lled with the spirit of merry making as party-goers did not let the monsoon season dampen their festive mood.
A party-goer, Karen commented, “It has been a trying 2017, and what better way to let my hair down than to put on my best shoes and let loose?”
Emcee Choy Ting paced the crowd throughout the event, complemented by the resident band’s high energy stage performances, sending the party goers into a state of frenzy as the clock struck 12. � e two shows of the night captivated the audience with their breathtaking and mesmerising performances. Aside from the bu� et spread and free � ow of beer, many party-goers started o� the new year on a lucky streak, walking away with coveted prizes from the lucky draw. Rounding o� the event, everyone danced the night away to the beat of DJ Janice’s heart pounding music. We wish all our members a great 2018 ahead.By Ahmad Hakim

Family Day 2017
Temasek Club’s Family Day was held on 17 December 2017. With over 250 members and friends visiting, it was a day for everyone to have fun, bond and play.
� is year’s theme was “Around the World”. � e rules were simple. Members would have to participate and complete 6 di� erent activities in order to have their “passports” stamped before they could collect their goody bags. With carnival games, bumper balls and sporting activities like badminton, table tennis and taekwondo, members had a variety of games to play and things to do.
� is year, we also introduced 2 water obstacles in the swimming pool where members had a chance to compete with one another in the spirit of fun to win attractive prizes. We had a total of over 17 families participating in the event. To end the day, we also had a lucky draw held at the main lobby.

Everything You Need To Know About Prowler Sled Training
With the growing popularity of high-intensity exercise programs, many � tness centers are changing their equipment o� erings and creating space for high-intensity conditioning programs. I remember when I � rst started li� ing weights some 15 years ago in the public gyms, such space were non-existent. � at trend is slowly changing as gyms start to expose members to functional movement, strength & conditioning and even CrossFit.
Many personal trainers introduce exercises like barbell deadli� s, Vipr, Turkish get-ups, overhead press-es and kettlebell swings. Today, Prowler Sled is a very powerful yet simple equipment that can help you improve your � tness. � e sled has been around for a very long time, primarily used by athletes in their strength & conditioning program. It was only in the last couple of years that we started to see more of it in the gyms, parks and � tness classes.
� e prowler sled is an extremely versatile piece of equipment that o� ers many bene� ts and produces incredible results in a very short time. It can be used to help you develop strength, power and speed; im-prove overall body conditioning, and it is also a great tool for fat loss. It is also worth noting that the sled is incredibly bene� cial as it mimics the lower body mechanics of running, but with signi� cantly less wear
Text Written By Shakin ChuaModel: Bryan Quek
LOW SLED PUSH• From half-squat position, grip one pair of the horizontal bars and make the body relatively parallel to the
ground.• Utilise the quads to drive forward the sled when taking the � rst step and accelerating.• Maintain a tight core when performing this exercise.

and tear on the body. In fact, a lot of people who might not otherwise be able to run can obtain similar, if not better results, by using the Prowler sled.
Unlike most equipment, the Prowler sled allows you to train a large va-riety of movements. You do not just push, but you also have the option of attaching a harness around your waist to pull it. � is sled variation most closely mimics running, and you have the option of sprinting forwards, backwards, or sideways. Or you can also attach a rope and use it as pulley system. � e possibilities are endless with the sled.
In Temasek Club, we have a 20-yard track in the gym where you can actually use this sled. Start o� with a light weight and slowly progress by adding more weights, or increase speed, rounds or even time. All depends on your � tness level and goals. While treadmills and Cross Trainer are still popular among many users, one should consider using the sled as part of the exercise routine.
SLED DRAG AND ROW• In seated-squat position, place emphasis on the arms and back when pulling the sled.• Keep a straight back at all times, and do not round the back when executing this movement.• Place more focus on the back and less on the quads when pulling.
HEAVY SLED SPRINTS• While sprinting, maintain a tight core throughout the whole movement.• Sprinting performance improves when loaded resistance is added.• Develops explosive power, speed and strength in the lower body.
