July 2009

Dear readers, I just got this memo from a friend, and though most of you already know the below information (thanks to my blog :D ), this is basically the official announcement for the Live Auditions tomorrow.

LIVE AUDITION FOR BIGGEST LOSER ASIA
Join Host Sarimah Ibrahim at Fitness First, the Curve for the Live Audition

Casting for the Asian series is for those who have the desire and competitive edge to vie for this once in a lifetime opportunity to change their lives forever. Till August 31 2009, hopefuls can send in their applications online at www.biggestloserasia.com. For interested Malaysian applicants, there will be LIVE auditions held from 10.00am – 4.00pm at Fitness First, The Curve in Damansara Mutiara on 1 August 2009. Call backs will be held the following day. The lovely host Sarimah will make an appearance at the LIVE auditions too, so be sure to turn up and heat up the competition for a spot!

The details of the event are as below:

Event : Biggest Loser Asia LIVE Auditions

So tomorrow, COME - and be a part of something really big. This is the first season of the Biggest Loser Asia, and we’re privileged to have auditions here Kuala Lumpur. Production of the show, which is scheduled to begin in October, is expected to go on for three months and will also most likely be shot right here in Malaysia!

So, applicant or not, even if you’re a big fan of the show (or perhaps you’re just into Sarimah Ibrahim?) - well show up anyway and be a part of this event!

The live ground auditions/casting is less than 24 hours away - Malaysia, are you READY?

Welcome listeners of BFM89.9 who may have found themselves here after my radio interview with Freda Liu on ‘Open for Business’ this morning.

If this is your first time to DailyMuscle.com then let me give you a quick tour of my blog.

Firstly, as I have mentioned over the air - I blog as an anonymous identity - so you will find that I am referred to as DM (short for Daily Muscle, a nickname given to me by one of my readers many years ago when I first started blogging). I am a full time Lifestyle & Weight Management Consultant (ACE-LWMC), and Certified Personal Trainer (ACE-CPT) - both by the prestigious American Council on Exercise.

The DailyMuscle blog is one that is devoted to helping the average person and the fitness enthusiast to get a better understanding of living a healthier lifestyle - a source for credible health and fitness information. You will also find plenty of body-sculpting tips, information on fitness and nutrition, and of course, my personal views and thoughts on various health/fitness-related topics. What’s currently hot on my blog are my posts on the upcoming first season of the Biggest Loser Asia.

More and more people today, especially here in Malaysia are now making an effort to take charge of their health. Take a look at the people around you… we are spending more money today than ever before on health club memberships, all sorts of gadgets and gizmos, slimming centres, health food, vitamins, etc - but are we really becoming a healthier nation? Definitely not.

The solution to this spiraling problem is Lifestyle Change. See one of my posts “One day, you look at the mirror and you can’t recognize yourself“, which struck a familiar chord with many of my readers.

I write more about the reasons for this blog and my story the About Me page.
