Velocity@Novena Square wellness offerings

We know, we’re just as shocked that the year is coming to an end. While you recover from the insane way time has passed, take this opportunity to reflect on what you’d like to do for the next year. Whether it’s eating healthier or trying out a new sport, Velocity@Novena Square is a jolly good place to start working on your New Year’s resolutions.

1. Try new sports like rock climbing & Muay Thai

Health is wealth. If you’ve been a lazy bum bum this whole 2023, it’s time to get off the couch and get moving – or climbin’ at Climb Central (#03-23). The place features both high walls and bouldering walls, so you can try your hand at climbing with and without a harness. Newbies need not fret, as the experienced staff will provide ample guidance.

Those looking for a high-intensity sport can try Muay Thai at Fightzone (#03-57). There are various punching bags here for you to vent all stress and frustrations away, as well as weight training equipment to help build strong muscles. Trust when we say that it is extremely therapeutic kicking ‘em bags.

You can also swing by True Fitness (#03-45) for a workout sesh. The gym spans over 2 floors, with plenty of equipment including elliptical trainers, power racks, and treadmills. This means you won’t have to awkwardly wait for other gym users to finish their reps, since there are tonnes of machines for everyone to use.

2. Incorporating healthy eating into your diet

As much as we love our fried food and MSG-induced supper, it’s vital to have a balanced diet with proper nutrition. Aside from home-cooked meals, healthy poke bowls (from $15) from Poke Theory (#01-53) are excellent alternatives if you’re looking for a quick lunch on the go.

SaladStop! (#02-24) also has yummy wraps (from $11.90) you can eat as a healthy and scrumptious breakfast choice. They also have vegan smoothie options (from $10.90) if you’d like to quench your thirst after a hardcore gym session.

3. Pamper yourself with facial treatments

We’re all about self-care in 2024, babes. If you haven’t gotten a facial in a while, here’s your sign to book a slot soon. V Medical Aesthetics & Laser Clinic (#03-29) has aesthetic treatments including HIFU ($550), which uses ultrasound technology to remove facial fats without harming your skin. Goodbye, double chin.

Facial treatments aside, you can also drop by SKINN Lash (#03-65) for beauty treatments so you’re all glammed up for the upcoming New Year’s party. They have a wide range of services to choose from, including eyelash extensions, eyebrow embroidery, and hair removal.

4. Motivate yourself to exercise with quality workout gear

If you need a little nudge to start exercising, getting quality workout ‘fits and equipment are a good way to start. For those who are lost on where to shop, The Big Country (#02-48) has a wide array of apparel and tools for sports including cycling, trekking, skiing, and even snorkelling.

Liv Activ (#02-60) is another shop to consider for sporting accessories. Options are aplenty here as the place is home to various sports brands like The North Face, HOKA, and Gregory Mountain Products. If you’re looking for waterproof bags, hiking boots, or thermal flasks, this is the place to go.

Of course, we can’t miss out on Key Power Sports (#02-58) when it comes to sports gear. You can get handy-dandy items including energy gel packs and weightlifting equipment. If you know any yogis in your life, you can also snag a yoga mat or block for them.

Who’s got “run more” on their to-do list for next year? If your running shoes are looking ratty, get a new pair from Asics (#01-44) – they’ve just released their Novablast 4 Running Shoes ($195.49) that’s comfy and cute.

You’ve probably seen the chunky shoes trend everywhere. New Balance (#01-39) is where these fashionable shoes originate from, and you’ll be glad to know that these kicks are also superb for jogging and running.
