SINGAPORE - Meet this week's hot bods - fitness trainers Jordan See, 25, and Ria Chen, 27.
Weight: 63kg
One of the challenges that I try to push myself with is 100 pull-ups within 10 minutes. Slowly, as I got stronger, I started doing more skill-related calisthenics moves such as planches, as well as front and back levers.
Most days, I have economy rice or chicken rice. I make sure I eat enough fruits and vegetables, and stay hydrated throughout the day. Enjoy the food and
the workouts - that is how one stays motivated to keep going.
Weight: 50kg
I used to drink bubble tea like water, but I have since switched to protein smoothies, which are great supplements for my diet and help me recover from the day's physical activities.

Exercise regimen
I get plenty of cardio in (at least six hours a week) just by doing my job as a spin instructor. I started lifting about a year ago and that was when I began to build muscle. Outside of the classes I teach, I try to clock in two to three strength-training sessions.Diet
On an average day, I have good old economy rice. But when I have time to cook, a medium-rare steak and a whole oven-roasted broccoli are my go-to.I used to drink bubble tea like water, but I have since switched to protein smoothies, which are great supplements for my diet and help me recover from the day's physical activities.
