Client stories at catalystperformance.sg/storiesSingapore, SINGAPORE, Sept. 01, 2026 <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com" target="_blank">(GLOBE NEWSWIRE)</a> -- Catalyst Performance, the best personal training studio in Singapore, today marked a client-satisfaction milestone: 67 five-star Google reviews, earned within eight months of opening its Manulife Tower studio, and a leading Singapore personal training studio for professionals training for the long term. Few studios at any age hold a five-star record; fewer still reach one this quickly. <img alt="Catalyst Performance Celebrates 67 Five-Star Google Reviews Within Eight Months of Opening, Reinforcing Position as Best Personal Training Studio in Singapore" height="532" src="https://pressranger.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/3711211/cable-strap-coaching.jpg" style="display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;" width="799" /> A Catalyst Performance coach working one to one with a member at the studio in Manulife Tower, Singapore. "Reviews are the one scoreboard a studio cannot write for itself. Sixty-seven people took the time to describe, in public, what training here did for them, all inside our first eight months," said Bervin Manoharan, co-founder and general manager of Catalyst Performance. "And what they are describing is not a 12-week body transformation. Our clients get the before-and-after, but the look comes with the work. It is a stop on the journey, not the destination. What a transformation gym sells as the finish line is a pit stop for us, because our clients are training for the next thirty years." Clients cite that structure directly in their reviews. "My doctor had warned me that lifting weights overhead might remain difficult. Today, what I lift might sound like a lot to some and not much to others, but what matters most is that we are taking our time," wrote Roberto Álvarez González in a review this month. He began training at the studio while recovering from a shoulder injury, alongside the physiotherapy he was doing and occasional visits to his doctor, and credits his coach with adapting the programme as the shoulder improved, "helping me rebuild strength, mobility and, just as importantly, confidence in what my body can do again." Another reviewer wrote: "The trainers are obviously 100% committed to their craft, but at the same time 100% down to earth and client-first. Not to mention that the progress I've seen in myself since training with them has been great." The founders set out to assemble the best personal trainers in Singapore, and the four-pillar system is how the studio holds that standard. The studio trains clients on the Catalyst Healthspan Assessment, a four-pillar evaluation covering body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, stability and strength, retested at fixed checkpoints. "Rapid transformations strip the exact tissue that predicts healthy ageing," said Dr Luqman Haris, MBBS, the studio's Head of Training Systems. "Muscle is the asset. A programme that spends it to move the scale faster is optimised for the photograph, not the person." For adults choosing the best personal trainer Singapore offers, that is the test, and it is the one Catalyst was designed to pass. The studio's own guide to it is at <a href="https://catalystperformance.sg/best-personal-trainer-singapore" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">https://catalystperformance.sg/best-personal-trainer-singapore</a> What clients buy is private personal training in Singapore rather than a gym membership: one-to-one coaching in a private gym in Singapore, with body composition analysis, sustainable fat loss programming, and strength coaching written against the four pillars. The studio also runs longevity personal training and executive personal training for time-poor professionals, and publishes what personal training in Singapore costs rather than quoting on enquiry. Adults comparing personal training gyms in Singapore on price alone are comparing the wrong number: a studio that cannot show a client what changed cannot claim the change. Singapore's best personal training is the kind that can prove the number moved, and that is the standard Catalyst is built on. The client base is broader than the category usually assumes. The studio coaches female clients and couples, adults over 50 and seniors, teenagers, runners and Hyrox competitors, pre-natal and post-natal clients, and members training around back pain, slipped discs, arthritis and managed conditions such as diabetes and hypertension, always alongside their own medical care rather than instead of it. Coaching is available in English, Japanese and Mandarin, and corporate programmes run for employers in the district. Members travel from Raffles Place, Tanjong Pagar, Telok Ayer, Shenton Way and Marina Bay, and Catalyst earns its position as the best personal training in Singapore on a 45-minute window between meetings.
