SINGAPORE - Operationally ready national servicemen (NSmen) will soon be able to fulfil their annual fitness training requirements from their homes or workplaces through virtual workouts.
The Ministry of Defence (Mindef) announced on Monday (July 5) that the virtual sessions, conducted over a video-conferencing platform, will be added to the NS Fitness Improvement Training (FIT) programme launched this year.
From next Monday, up to 45 NSmen can take part in each FIT @ Home session with at least two fitness trainers checking on their safety and performance.
NSmen can register on the NS Portal from Wednesday for the hour-long sessions, which is similar in duration to other NS FIT programmes and count towards its 10-session annual requirement.
