Quick answer

What is Catalyst Online Coaching?

Catalyst Online Coaching is a 6-month programme delivered through video calls, weekly check-in forms, and live data from your wearables and nutrition apps.

It pairs with any commercial gym membership, Pure Fitness, Fitness First, Anytime Fitness, 24/7 Fitness, Virgin Active, True Fitness, Gymmboxx, your condo gym, or your hotel gym: the membership gives you equipment access, Catalyst adds the programming, coaching, and diagnostic on top. Open globally, members based in Singapore and worldwide. SGD 350 per month, SGD 700 first month (first and last month upfront), SGD 2,100 total. Enrol online; your first call is within seven days.

Founder-led

Built by the three co-founders

The programming, the four-pillar diagnostic, and the coaching standards are the founders’ own. Delivered by a dedicated Catalyst coach who runs their system, not a rotating junior.

Bervin Manoharan

Co-Founder · General Manager

Bervin Manoharan

Over a decade operating premium personal training in Singapore. Hired and trained 100+ trainers across multiple 25,000 to 30,000 sqft gyms before founding Catalyst. The operating system behind the programme.

HYROX-podium athlete with three career podiums and 25+ marathons. The applied-performance lens. Knows what coaching at the high end actually demands, because he trains there.

Dr. Luqman Haris

Co-Founder · Head of Training Systems

Dr. Luqman Haris

MBBS-qualified. The clinical lens on programming, screening, and the boundary between coaching and medicine. The diagnostic rigour that the four pillars are built on.

Founder-led programming

The founders build it, your coach delivers it

The programme runs on the system the three founders built: the four-pillar diagnostic, the programming standards, the check-in cadence that survives a missed week, and the honest framing when someone isn’t a fit. Your day-to-day coaching is delivered by a dedicated Catalyst coach who runs that system, with the founders’ oversight behind it. Not a rotating junior, not a template.

Why this combination

Theory, practice, and operations, in one programme

01

The theory leg

Theory

Most online coaches start with a programming template and adjust at the edges. Catalyst starts with the science: peer-reviewed exercise literature, longevity research, AWGS sarcopenia thresholds. Dr. Luqman's MBBS lens means clinical limits are framed by training, not guessed.

02

The practice leg

Practice

Theory without thousands of hours coaching real bodies under load is still theory. The training app, cueing standards, and the Movement Pattern Strength Assessment library came from two decades in a private studio, not a textbook. The work travels because it's been refined in the room.

03

The operations leg

Operations

Most premium online coaching skips the third leg: the operations behind it. Trainer infrastructure, check-in cadence that survives a missed week, the honest framing when someone isn't a fit. Bervin built and ran multi-site premium PT operations before founding Catalyst.

The home-based personal trainer has practice but no infrastructure. The online-only programme seller has scale but no real coaching depth. Catalyst Online Coaching is the synthesis, delivered by three founders who each carry one of the three legs.

Founders, in the work

The work we ask of you, we do ourselves

02 · The reps

03 · The podium

The work we ask of you, we do ourselves. Every protocol the programme runs, we run too. Re-tested at the 16-week Checkpoint with the same instruments, the same accountability. Built from inside the training, not from above it.

What the programme includes

Six months of coaching, six layers of work

01

10 coaching calls, tapered

10 coaching calls, tapered

Video calls front-loaded when habits and programming are being installed. Lighter in the back half as you take ownership.

30 minutes each. Scheduled against the work, not on a fixed grid. The goal is training you run yourself, not a forever-dependency.

02

Weekly check-in form

Weekly check-in form

One structured form per week, 24 over the programme. Training adherence, sleep, nutrition, subjective progress, anything worth flagging.

Your coach reads each week's check-in to set the next seven days. It's the diagnostic thread that holds the programme together between calls.

03

The Catalyst training app

The Catalyst training app

Same standard as in-studio members. Every exercise has a studio-shot video demonstrated by our coaches. Prescriptions, target loads, tempo cues, pre-loaded.

No spreadsheet of exercise names you have to translate. Commercial gym, condo gym, or hotel gym, the work is the same. The app calibrates to the kit you have, not the other way round.

04

Live wearable + nutrition data

Live wearable + nutrition data

Apple Health, Oura, Whoop, Garmin, MyFitnessPal. Sleep, HRV, recovery, training load, hydration, macros, all feeding your coach in real time.

If you're under-recovered, the next session adjusts. If sleep has dipped for two weeks, the programme adjusts before the numbers move.

05

Direct messaging between calls

Direct messaging between calls

Send a working-set video, get notes back. Form-check loops, mid-week questions, the rhythm adjustments that come up between scheduled calls. A continuous loop, not a fortnightly transactional touch.

06

The 16-week Checkpoint

The 16-week Checkpoint

The recommended 16-week re-assessment is the in-studio Catalyst Healthspan Assessment at Manulife Tower: SGD 163.50 for your first in-studio session, SGD 200 per session after that, both GST inclusive. Full instrument battery, run on the studio equipment by the founding team. The cleanest signal on whether the programme is working.

When in-studio isn't feasible, a parallel at-home protocol covers the four pillars: grip dynamometer, step test, Y-Balance lite, body composition via consumer BIA or proxy markers. You record and report; we score. The Healthspan Score trend, not what you felt like that morning, is the artefact.

Already training at a Singapore gym

Pair Catalyst with the gym you already train at

A membership at Pure Fitness, Fitness First, Anytime Fitness, 24/7 Fitness, Virgin Active, True Fitness, Gymmboxx, or any other commercial gym (in Singapore, or wherever you're based) gives you equipment access. What it does not give you is structured programming, a coach who reads your weekly check-in, live wearable integration, founder-tier oversight, or the four-pillar Healthspan diagnostic. Catalyst Online Coaching is the layer that sits on top of your existing membership. Same gym. Real coaching.

Pure Fitness · Fitness First · Virgin Active members

Premium-tier equipment, founder-led programming

Pure Fitness, Fitness First, and Virgin Active give you well-equipped facilities. What the membership doesn't include is structured programming, weekly check-ins, or coach oversight calibrated to a four-pillar diagnostic. Catalyst Online Coaching brings the founder-designed programming, the wearable integration, and the 16-week Checkpoint. Your membership stays.

Anytime Fitness · 24/7 Fitness members

24-hour access, structured programme

Anytime Fitness gives you round-the-clock gym access through 5,000+ locations worldwide; 24/7 Fitness covers Singapore on the same model. The flexibility is real. What 24-hour access does not solve is the question of what to train, in what order, at what dose. The Catalyst training app prescribes the work, the coach reads the data, the call cadence keeps the trajectory honest. The 24/7 access becomes a 24/7 programme.

True Fitness · Gymmboxx · neighbourhood-chain members

Equipment access, one dedicated coach

True Fitness, Gymmboxx, and the broader mass-market chain network give Singapore most of its commercial gym footprint. Personal trainers at these venues typically bill per session and rotate. Catalyst Online Coaching is one dedicated coach for six months, running the founder-designed system: programming, weekly check-ins, wearable data, direct messaging between calls, and the four-pillar diagnostic at the centre. SGD 350 per month, six-month commitment.

Condo gym · hotel gym members

Well-equipped private gym, calibrated programming

A well-equipped condo gym or hotel gym with the full kit (dumbbells across a wide range, a barbell with plates, a pull-up bar, ideally a cable) is the right fit. The Catalyst training app calibrates the work to the equipment in front of you. Programming, not the location of the gym, is the bottleneck for most adults training outside a coached environment. Online Coaching fills exactly that bottleneck. Bodyweight-only and under-equipped home setups are not a fit for this programme.

Catalyst Online Coaching is a separate service from any gym membership. Members keep their existing membership for equipment access and engage Catalyst for the coaching layer. SGD 350 per month, six-month commitment, one dedicated coach on the founder-designed system. The programme is open globally; members are based in Singapore and across the world.

Built for

Designed for the audiences the transformation gym misreads

Catalyst Online Coaching is built for professionals whose work demands cognitive durability across decades, not a physique across twelve weeks. Stable HRV, real sleep, structured strength, cardio that holds up under a twelve-hour day: the inputs that keep you sharp at work are the same inputs that build healthspan. Not a transformation block that ends when the photos arrive.

Doctors

On-call shifts. Sleep windows that compress to four hours. Ten hours standing in clinic or theatre. Strength and cardiovascular capacity as job-durability infrastructure, not as transformation projects.

Lawyers

Year-round travel. M&A close stretches. Trial prep weeks. The programme bends to volume cycles without resetting; consistency through deal closures, not despite them.

Accountants

Tax season cliffs. Year-end close. Audit field-work. The programme adjusts to the calendar that matters to you, then returns when capacity returns. The Healthspan Score trends through the cycle, not just the off-season.

Big Four professionals

Up-or-out timelines. Billable hour culture. Weekly travel that crosses time zones. Built for the professional whose work compounds over decades, where body-composition framing misreads the assignment.

Management consultants

Hotel gym, condo gym, commercial gym chain, repeat. The Catalyst training app and wearable data integration were designed for exactly this terrain. Same coach, same programming logic, wherever Monday morning finds you. Gym access is a programme requirement, not an option.

C-suite professionals

Time-poor. Decision-saturated. No tolerance for cookie-cutter coaching. Founder-designed programming. Four-pillar diagnostic at the centre. Calibrated to your specific baseline, not to a category template.

What links them: high agency, scarce time, and a healthspan view longer than the next promotion cycle. The body-composition gym optimises for the wrong metric. Our four-pillar diagnostic measures the ones that compound over decades, body composition, cardio, stability, strength, re-tested at the 16-week Checkpoint. The look follows the training. We don't reverse the order.

Honest fit

Who Online Coaching is built for

The right product if

You want Catalyst's discipline but live outside Singapore, travel too often for a studio schedule, or have trained 1:1 before and don't need in-room cueing every session. You're ready to commit to 6 months, have access to a properly equipped gym throughout the programme (commercial gym, condo gym, or hotel gym), and you're comfortable with data-driven coaching through wearables.

The wrong product if

You've never strength-trained before and need hands-on cueing for the first months. You want fixed weekly accountability regardless of work, not a tapered cadence. You need someone in the room. In-studio personal training at Manulife Tower is the right call.

Start elsewhere if

You're not sure where to begin. Take the free Healthspan Audit first. Same four-pillar 0-to-10 scale we measure in studio, two minutes on a phone. The report tells you whether online coaching, in-studio PT, or something else fits where you are right now.

The call is the punctuation. The work between is everything.

Frequently asked

Common questions, answered

Q. 01

Do I need access to a gym for the programme?

Yes. You need access to a properly equipped gym throughout the six months. A commercial gym membership (Pure Fitness, Fitness First, Anytime Fitness, 24/7 Fitness, Virgin Active, True Fitness, Gymmboxx, or any equivalent chain wherever you train), a well-equipped condo gym, or a well-equipped hotel gym all qualify. Bodyweight-only and under-equipped home setups are not a fit. If your access is uncertain, flag it when you enrol or email us first and we'll check the setup with you.

Q. 02

Is online coaching as good as in-studio personal training?

For the right candidate, same coaching discipline: the training app, the four-pillar logic, the wearable integration, the check-in cadence. You give up hands-on cueing and access to our Watson and Keiser equipment. You gain flexibility, no commute, and a programme that travels with you.

Q. 03

How are the 10 calls scheduled across the 6 months?

Front-loaded, then by appointment. The first month or two carries more calls because habits, programming, and the diagnostic baseline are being installed. The back half goes lighter as you take ownership. The taper is deliberate, we'd rather build training you run yourself than create a forever-dependency.

Q. 04

How much time do I need to commit each week?

The programming is bespoke, so the weekly dose depends on your goals. Expect three to five sessions a week in total, across strength sessions and cardio sessions. Your coach sets the exact split against your four-pillar baseline and the time your week genuinely allows, then adjusts it as the data comes in.

Q. 05

What equipment do I need access to?

Access to a properly equipped gym throughout the programme: a commercial gym membership, a well-equipped condo gym, or a well-equipped hotel gym. The kit you need to be able to reach: dumbbells across a wide range, a barbell with plates, a pull-up bar, ideally a cable. Bodyweight-only and under-equipped home setups are not a fit for this programme. For the 16-week Checkpoint, a grip dynamometer (~SGD 60 on Amazon SG) and consumer body composition scale are recommended but not required. Your coach scopes the right kit at onboarding.

Q. 06

How much does the in-studio assessment cost?

The in-studio Catalyst Healthspan Assessment at Manulife Tower is available at the start of the programme and at the 16-week Checkpoint. Your first in-studio session is SGD 163.50 and each session after that is SGD 200, both GST inclusive. The at-home Checkpoint protocol is included in the programme; the in-studio battery is the option for the cleanest signal.

Q. 07

How does the SGD 700 first-month payment work?

Six-month commitment at SGD 350 per month, paid by credit card. The SGD 700 first-month payment covers your first month and your last month upfront, so the final month is paid for from day one. Your card is saved securely with HitPay and months 2 through 5 bill at SGD 350 automatically on the 1st of each month. Total: SGD 2,100. This is a six-month commitment, and all payments are final and non-refundable, stated and agreed at checkout.

Q. 08

Can I get a refund?

No. Catalyst Online Coaching is a six-month commitment and all payments are final and non-refundable. This is stated and agreed at checkout before your card is charged. Your credit card is saved securely with HitPay and the monthly SGD 350 charges run automatically on the 1st of each of the next four months; if a payment ever fails, for example an expired card, we contact you to update it.

Q. 09

How soon can I start?

Straight away. Enrolment is open on a rolling basis, so you enrol online whenever you're ready, no waitlist and no cohort to wait for. Your coach reaches out within 24 hours of enrolling with the training app login and onboarding details.

Q. 10

When does the programme start?

The moment you enrol. Your coach is in touch within 24 hours to set up onboarding, and your first coaching call is scheduled within seven days. The six-month clock starts from your first month's payment.

Q. 11

I'm a member of Pure Fitness, Fitness First, Anytime Fitness, or 24/7 Fitness. Can I still do Catalyst Online Coaching?

Yes. Online Coaching pairs with any commercial gym membership: Pure Fitness, Fitness First, Anytime Fitness, 24/7 Fitness, Virgin Active, True Fitness, Gymmboxx, your condo gym, your hotel gym, or any equivalent chain wherever you train. The membership gives you equipment access. Catalyst adds the programming, the coaching calls, the wearable integration, the four-pillar diagnostic, and the 16-week Checkpoint. Same gym. Real coaching. The programme is open globally; members are based in Singapore and across the world.

Q. 12

How is this different from personal training at my gym chain?

Personal trainers at the major gym chains (Pure Fitness, Fitness First, Anytime Fitness, 24/7 Fitness, Virgin Active, True Fitness, and the global equivalents wherever you train) typically bill per session and rotate as trainers change shifts or move venues. Catalyst Online Coaching is one dedicated coach for six months, running the founder-designed system: programming, weekly check-ins, wearable data, direct messaging between calls, and the four-pillar Healthspan diagnostic at the centre. SGD 350 per month, structured to taper as you take ownership of the work.

Q. 13

Does my gym membership cover Catalyst Online Coaching?

No. Catalyst Online Coaching is a separate service from any gym membership at Pure Fitness, Fitness First, Anytime Fitness, 24/7 Fitness, Virgin Active, True Fitness, or any other commercial chain (in Singapore or wherever you train). Members keep their existing membership for equipment access and engage Catalyst for the coaching layer. SGD 350 per month, six-month commitment, one dedicated coach on the founder-designed system.

Q. 14

What happens after the six months?

We discuss it together near the end of the programme. If you want to continue, we are open to renewing the contract with our online members, with the cadence and terms set against where your training stands at that point.
