STIFF

About the Book

"Little Student", aka Jules, is a passionate, driven woman who works long hours, spends her day scrolling through 3km of emails, and hates to sweat. But when a flight of stairs became enough to tire her out, she knew something had to be done. STIFF chronicles her story of wanting to get healthier but feeling intimidated by workout classes ("why do they move so fast?"), bulging flesh (aka muscles) and shiny machines ("so many buttons??"). With the help of Mr Trainer, Jules goes from gym newbie with zero stamina to the strong woman she is now (but she's still WIP ya!). With honesty, wit, and lots of LOL moments, STIFF aims to inspire us to transform our lives, and that the only thing stopping us is a "cannot lah" mindset. A cute book packed with motivation, mantras, made-up exercise terms, and a lot of heart, STIFF follows Jules' journey through buckets of sweat to come out better than before. And while reading STIFF won't make you a workout enthusiast overnight, it will help you get started on your journey from zero to hero. Because all you really need to succeed are good gym shoes and a never give up attitude.

About the Author

Jules is a seasoned advertising professional by day ( and sometimes night!) and a devoted mom, a kaki makan, and a fitness enthusiast all day long. She started on her fitness journey without even owning a pair of gym shoes, but now she lifts weights, does HIIT, and jumps along with others in workout classes - and feels the best she's ever felt in a long time. Jules is equal parts determined, strong, fierce, and funny; and lives by the mantra "I am woman, hear me roar". She wants to inspire anyone at any age or fitness level to transform their lives because "if she can do it, seriously lah - so can you". This is Jules' first book.
