Singapore, 24 October 2023 - Under Armour celebrated its triumphant return to the competitive fitness scene with the highly anticipated second edition of UA COMBINE last Saturday (21 October 2023).
The dynamic event hosted at Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre, witnessed 309 of Singapore's top athletes going head-to-head across eight fitness tests, pushing boundaries and beating their personal bests, for the ultimate title of UA COMBINE SINGAPORE 2023 Champion.
“Under Armour has always been about hard work, grit, and determination. Observing the UA COMBINE participants embody these values while striving to set new personal records truly exemplifies the spirit of what it means to be an athlete” said Justin Olivares, Marketing Director for Under Armour South Asia-Pacific.
The Men’s Division saw the tightest competition yet, with Dan Smith and Kangyin Lim going head-to-head for the top position. Smith secured two Top 5 finishes, while Lim achieved four, including taking the top spot in the 20M Sled Push (Power) in just 4.75 seconds. Ultimately, with only a mere 2-point margin, Dan Smith emerged as the victorious winner of the UA COMBINE SINGAPORE 2023 Men’s Division.
“Participating in UA COMBINE 2023 has been an incredibly fulfilling and well-rounded experience. While winning took me by surprise, I'm proud that all competitors gave our best efforts to test our limits,” said Dan Smith, personal trainer and coach at UFIT Singapore.
The energy was equally electrifying at the Women’s Division, with the female athletes displaying exceptional grit and determination.
