Power Up is a brand-new project initiated by the Leo Club of
the University of Colombo that falls under the category of sports and
recreation.
The first phase of the project was designed to spread
awareness and educate the public on techniques of self-defense and the legality
behind it.
As the second phase we
were able to conduct a valuable session addressing the importance of fitness
and nutrition in our day to day life. Prior to the second phase, a promotional
campaign was carried out to spread awareness on the importance of fitness and
nutrition (healthy diet) using flyers which were published on social media
platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp.
The second phase was successfully carried out on 25th
February 2022 via zoom platform from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. with active participation
of over 45 delegates attending the session via both Zoom as well as Facebook
platforms.
The second phase addressed two topics as mentioned above and
participants were allowed to present their burning questions with respect to
fitness and nutrition. The second phase was conducted by an ISSA certified
strength, conditioning and nutrition specialist, Mr. Shehan De Silva.
During the event, we invited Ms. Janaki karunarathna
(Lead of Corporate Affairs at Hemas Consumer Brands) on behalf of, Fems – Hemas
Holdings PLC to advocate the audience regarding their initiatives about women
empowerment as a special appreciation to the platinum sponsor for Power Up,
Fems – Hemas Holdings PLC that provides us with massive support to make this
project a success.
Look
forward to the upcoming phases of the project.
And tune into fitness with
us!
Sanju Wickramasinghe- Project Chairperson
