--

good day everyone,

Attended the STEP UP seminar at SMU today for young leaders and captains alike. it was definitely an honoured standing in the same room with two of the fastest men in Singapore, Uk Shyam and Mr Kunalan. i also got to hear first hand, the real story behind all the saga a few years back.

met chin, my strength and conditioning coach during my days as a junior. i was glad i could still do some of the exercises and drills he showed us (:

I'm definitely imparting this to the team on Tuesday. i believe with this training regime, it will only push the rest of the team to do well. For tennis, it's emphasis is physical as the technical aspects is well taken off, but with the mental toughness to endure such trainings, one will not reach their maximum potential.

anyhows!
