Combat Age-Related Loss of Muscle 1.0 (CALM 1.0)

Finding it hard to climb up the stairs or get up from your chair without support? Although traditional lifestyle interventions and exercise programmes have focused on fat loss, there has been a surge of research in the past 10 years that emphasises the importance of maintaining lean muscle mass throughout the ageing process.

Sessions will be conducted mainly in English, with simple translations to Mandarin provided.

The programme consists of 3 elements:
A) Assessments (Handgrip strength, walking speed and muscle mass)
B) Resistance Exercises (Using resistance band provided on Week 1 and free weights)
C) Domain Sharing (Move Better, Eat Better and Rest Better)

Outline of 8-week programme:
Week 1: Assessment @ Active Health Lab
Week 2 to 7: Exercise (weekly) & Domain Sharing (on alternate weeks)
