In view of the HIGH risk of transboundary haze affecting Singapore in the latter half of 2023, as indicated by various media reports:

​

• Haze in Singapore: PSI hits 'Unhealthy' range on Saturday after 212 hotspots detected in Sumatra - Yahoo News, October, 2023

​

• "High risk of severe transboundary haze in 2023, public advised to be prepared: Singapore institute" - Channel News Asia (CNA), 22 June 23

​​

• "High Likelihood Of El Nino Conditions In Second Half Of 2023 Will Increase Risk Of Transboundary Haze Affecting Singapore" - National Environment Agency (NEA), 30 May 2023​

​​

the following are the latest measures and protocols that will be put in place with immediate effect:

​

These measures are for ALL on-site services including:

​

• One-On-One Personal Training,

• Couple/Buddy Workouts and

• Small Group Exercise Sessions, 

​

A) When Air Quality is GOOD { PM2.5: 0-55 (normal); PSI: 0-50 }

 

• All training sessions will continue as NORMAL.

​

B) When Air Quality is MODERATE { PM2.5: 56 – 150 (elevated); PSI: 51-100 }

 

• Training sessions will continue as NORMAL.

• Training intensities and volume may be adjusted and modified if necessary.

• Wearing of face masks will be made optional.

• If there is a need, sessions may be moved INDOORS.

​

C) When Air Quality is UNHEALTHY { PM2.5: 151 – 250 (high); PSI: 101-200 }

 

• All Outdoor Training Sessions will cease.

• Indoor/In-Home Training will become the default exercise mode.

• Wearing of face masks will be strongly encouraged

• Exercise intensities and volume will also be adjusted downward accordingly.

• Workout sessions may also be converted to a NON-EXERCISE MODULE, such as either a Lifestyle Mentoring Session or a Nutritional Counseling Session if clients so wish. 

• If clients choose to voluntarily postpone the affected session, 24-HR Notification Policy will still apply.

​​

C) When Air Quality is VERY UNHEALTHY or WORSE { PM2.5: 251 and above (very high); PSI: 201 and above }

​

• All training sessions will be POSTPONED/CANCELLED.

• Either trainer or client may initiate the postponement/cancellation at the earliest convenience.

• NO penalty or forfeiture of lesson will be incurred (even if it is a last-minute decision).

• A Make-Up/Replacement Session will be arranged for the affected session/s.

​

D) Other Pertinent Information

 

• All readings of Air Quality, PSI and PM2.5 will be based on Singapore’s National Environment Agency (NEA) official sources.​

• The readings that are to be taken and the subsequent decisions to be made (to either continue or forgo a particular session) will be based on each client’s specific training location and/or exact locality.

• Other individualized considerations and measures may also be taken and implemented as and when necessary.

• All the above measures and protocols will be reviewed from time to time, and necessary adjustments may be taken depending on the haze situation and any further government advisories.
