Members were very grateful for the cooling breeze as Johnny Tieu put them through their paces at the Chamber’s first YEC x WEC Workout Session. Sprints, bear crawls, burpees and push-ups were among the varied range of exercises that tested participants’ strength and raised their heart rate at this fun post-work event at Tamar Park on 9 August. 

Tieu explained that he started his working life in finance before switching to a very different career path. He is a fitness consultant and personal trainer as well as a Global Ambassador for the Spartan Race – a tough obstacle course contest. As a past winner, he helps train others entering such challenging events, including competitors aiming for a podium position.

Tieu’s client list also includes a number of companies in Hong Kong – ranging from banks to newspapers – as more businesses recognize the benefits of encouraging good health and arranging activities for their employees.
