SINGAPORE – National sport agency Sport Singapore (SportSG) is encouraging people to exercise at home from now.

This comes after the tightening of Covid-19 circuit breaker measures on Tuesday, which included the extension of the circuit breaker period till June 1.

In an advisory sent late on Tuesday night, SportSG emphasised the importance of staying active to boost one’s immunity amid the coronavirus pandemic, but urged the public to exercise at home to help reduce the transmission of the virus.

The advisory came into effect at 11.59pm on Tuesday.

To facilitate home workouts, SportSG launched ActiveSG Circle, a virtual super sport club platform, last week.

It connects private fitness instructors and freelancers with its members, who can access online fitness classes created by the industry players in sports such as yoga, pilates, and strength training.

Individuals are still allowed to leave home to exercise – although this is not encouraged. If they choose to do so, they must now exercise alone and only in their immediate neighbourhoods.
