Toa Payoh Safra Gym

Today, Lunar New Year Day 2 - Went to Toa Payoh Safra Gym. Since I have been travelling to quite a number of gyms, Planet Fitness, California, Several Clubfitt gyms etc, I thought of writing a gym review, and this will be my first review on gym.

Im so glad I went today bcos i am so inspired by 2 people there whom i met... Augustine and Joan Liew. In case you dunno who they are...

this is joan's website: http://www.joanliew.com/
and this is Augustine: http://auguslee.com/

Overview of Toa Payoh Safra Gym

It measures 10,000 sq m and is the largest SAFRA’s gym. Total of 3 floors to the gym - the basement consisting a double-volume workout area with a 100-m indoor warm-up track; the second consisting the 25-pax dance studio, squash court and frontdesk.

There are two floors of changing and showering facility for both males and females, each equipped with its own jacuzzi and steam room. There is also a indoor rock wall... but so far i have no seen anyone using it, and i doubt it is in a usable condition

There are around 20 threadmills, and 20 over other cardio machines such as epileptic runner, climber, bicycle machine etc. There indoor running track are kind of obsolete as some machines are actually place on the track already.

Bench Presses are most people's favourite, and the waiting time for bench presses usually is very long. But over here, there are 4 Flat Bench Presses, 2 inclined and 1 declined bench press.

They have a cable crossover machine, seldom or never seen in clubfitt gyms.
Heaviest Dumbell is 30kg; And they sort of have a personal space for individuals to train, each person with 1 mirror... train at ur own privacy.

Overall This Gym: 4.5 /5.0

Island Creamery

Island Creamery

After hearing so many people around me saying how good how great how fantastic the ice cream over here is... i decided to "sin". Hopefully its worth the trip down and worth the sugar.

Apple Crumble and Teh-Tarik Ice Cream

The above is my orders, and 2 scoops of the above cost $4, single scoop will be $2.50. The Apple Crumple really have apples and crumbles in it, not just the taste. The Teh Tarik taste like real Teh - Tarik, just imagine frozen Teh-Tarik Ice Cream melts in your mouth into Teh - Tarik... splendid!

There are still many flavors, on top of the usual flavors like choco etc, they have other creations like Longan, Tiger Beer Sherbet, Pineapple Tart etc... Too many flavors to list down.. I wish i could eat all... but... too much sugar also not good... so peeps... keep ur sugar in check! eat once in a while only k!? :)


Wall of Pictures

They have many many picures of customers on their wall... see all the happy faces... tts what Island Creamery can do to you...! can u spot me?
