Faris has been in the fitness industry
for 13 years now. He was a former fitness manager at both
True Fitness as well as California Fitness at Bugis
Junction.
Faris is a tried-and-proven trainer,
highly sought-after in the industry, and known as someone who
never fails to deliver results to his clients.
Many of Faris's clients have achieved
their dream bodies and health/fitness goals after working with him.
Some of his clients - who have high cholesterol, hypertension,
diabetes etc - have improved their medical conditions after working
with him. Those who were overweight/obese also had
their BMIs brought down to the normal range after training with
Faris.
Faris's vast knowledge in
nutrition and training methods also makes personal training a great
and worthwhile experience for his clients as he consistently brings
training to another level beyond what his clients expect.
Faris also does kickboxing (CardioBox)
training to his clients, teaching them how to attack and defend with
proper movements and technique. Research has shown that doing
CardioBox not only increases one's heart rate but is also a
great core exercise using total body movements that has the ability
to improve one's agility, mobility and fat-burning potential (as
much as 1000 calories or more can be used up just by doing
CardioBox alone)!
As a Sport Therapist and
Nutritionist, Faris also applies his knowledge on his injured
clients and have successfully helped many of them in their
rehabilitation for various sports injuries, such as ACL tears,
slipped discs, neck injuries and many others.
Although his slots are often full, Faris always welcomes new clients
- both as a form of motivation and
challenge to himself.
As a side note, Faris is also a
Team Singapore Athlete in Bodybuilding, having represented
Singapore in the Asian Championships held in Hong Kong in
2008.
After his Manhunt pageant ended
in 2006, and ever since his emergence in the bodybuilding scene in
2007, Faris has won numerous titles and achievements in the fields
of fitness and bodybuilding.
