Faces of HBF Arena - meet Juan

Our much loved gym member, Juan, has passed all the police tests and is becoming a policeman. He is super excited!

Instructor Lin has seen Juan work extremely hard in the gym since he joined in 2016 with the goal of joining the police force. She was thrilled to see him achieve this goal recently. 

Juan trained frequently, consistently and with maximum effort in every session to prepare for his physical test. With the gym's recent closure due to COVID-19 the final preparation became even more challenging. While not being able to access the gym, he was still able to maintain his training at home and outdoors. A trial physical test before the official test conducted by Lin saw him pass with flying colours so Lin was confident that he would pass his official test easily.

Unfortunately, a hamstring injury two weeks prior to the official test left him in pain, needing to scale back his training and worried the injury might affect his official test result. With the help of some targeted treatment and his earlier consistent base of training he nailed the official physical test. Lin says "It was incredible! All his hard work has paid off!"

Juan, we are very proud of your achievement, you are an inspiration!
