EVERY CANCER PATIENT WORST NIGHTMARE. OUR PRAYER IS WITH YOU AIDA AZMI

This video and the daily series hereon, is dedicated to a friend Aida Munirah Azmi. A friend whom was diagnosed with a rare cancer called the Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma, a rare form of salivary gland cancer 10 years ago and recently had a relapse (every cancer patient's worst nightmare). There is no better way to spend the Movement Control order at home than to participate in cancer awareness + get fit. Please watch the video and join this campaign. Aida in collaboration with Cancer Research Malaysia has launched an awareness and fund raising campaign for rare cancer. The campaign is called #Burpees4Aida. At the Chief’s Original Bootcamp, we don’t do Burpees. We do Grunts. So we will do grunts instead of Burpees. I hope Azmir & you do not mind. Aida take the Burpees (quite similar to Grunts) as a metaphor in life where you will always fall but you got to get yourself back up (everytime). Which is true to every cancer and healthy person. Both Aida and her husband Azmir was a recruit at the Chief's Original Bootcamp (COBC). Azmir later became one of the best instructor at COBC. I’m more than happy to spread this awareness and pledge to do this everyday for you Aida, Azmir & the 4 children (the A team), and for rare cancer awareness & fund raising. Stay strong we are all with you during this trying time. On every video, I will do my best to show different types of Grunts we do at the Chief’s Original Bootcamp to make this exercise more interesting. If you are healthy and is able to, join me create the awareness for rare cancer and Aida. I will demo a new sets of Grunts in every "BurpeesForAida video". But of course it will be a different type of grunt instead of Burpees which is what I am more familiar. Please subscribe to my channel, start with 10 grunts today, tag me so we know the numbers are growing. #burpees4aida. #COBC4Aida I will also tag a friend and I do hope you will continue spread this awareness. If you would like to donate instead, you can donate to at the link https://bit.ly/33BnEcL Take care Aida & Azmir. Both of you are always in my thought and prayer and have always been an inspiration to many people. Aida’s husband Azmir was my ex colleague at the Chief’sOriginal bootcamp. He now runs the Warrior Bootcamp and we are never a rival. We live by our tagline Bootcamp for life! I will be nominating a friend at the end of the video. If you have been tag, please do the following: 1. Record a video of yourself doing as many burpees (or Grunts) as you can (a good number to start is 10 repetitions if you are not accustom to working out). Step 2 : Upload your video via facebook, instagram or youtube with hashtag #burpees4aida #COBC4aida Step 3 : Tag three (3) friends to stand a chance to be featured on the Malaysia Book Of Records by participating in Aida's #burpees4aida Mass Festival on 7 June 2020.

BOOTCAMP INSTRUCTORS ON TRIAL

Ok... First, I'll do the 20 grunts for forgetting to announce the winning Reds in the last blog. Yes, the Reds (ie Chief's instructors in Malaysia) too went through the same phase of lifestyle transformation together with their recruits during the Eight Weeks to Wow challenge but since they were by default disqualified from competing for the RM15,000 grand prize, COBC ran our own challenge among the instructors and the four shortlisted for Finals are as follows:

There are 12 instructors at the Chief's Original Bootcamp, Malaysia network with only 1 female instructor. At the Chief's Original Bootcamp Malaysia, we believe in preaching whatever is spoken and in walking the talk. Whatever that is being trained at the bootcamp, our instructors go through the same training and products. To unleashed our recruit's best physique, our instructors too unleashed theirs. Together, we walk in the corridors of hot bods & health.

There will only be 1 winner among the instructors and the winner will get a New Balance Voucher worth RM ehem ehem... 

Instructors that were voted into finals are....
