Even at 36 years of age, DSP (NS) Mohamad Syaifudin bin Ahmad Ismail is an example of a highly disciplined individual.<\/p>

\u201cEarly in my life, I had seen the effects of a poor diet and sedentary lifestyle,\u201d he tells Frontline<\/em>.<\/p>

At the age of 11, he saw his father suffer a heart attack. Ten years later, he watched his mother battle cancer. Fortunately, both DSP (NS) Syaifudin\u2019s parents beat their ailments and continue to lead healthy lives today. \u201cAs a kid, I didn\u2019t automatically link these to poor diet and lack of exercise. But at university where I studied Physical Education and Sports Science, I decided to make a change,\u201d he reflects.<\/p>

Well-built and toned, the NS Commanding Officer (CO) of Training, Training Command (TRACOM), clocks at least five sessions a week at the gym and complements his physical regimen with a strict diet: Five half-boiled eggs and a cup of oatmeal every morning, followed by grilled chicken breast or salmon with a large serving of roasted vegetables for lunch and dinner. \u201cI do indulge on weekends,\u201d says DSP (NS) Syaifudin, who is the recipient of the SPF NSman (PNSman) of the Year award in 2021.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Since then, DSP (NS) Syaifudin has been leading a healthy lifestyle but has adjusted certain routines to fit his changing life situation. One of the most significant changes is something we all go through \u2013\u00a0\u00a0 ageing. \u201cI love to play football. In my 20s, I could play with teenagers, but these days, it would place a great strain on my body,\u201d says the Physical Education (PE) teacher who teaches at a local educational institution.<\/p>

In fact, DSP (NS) Syaifudin has sustained three knee surgeries in recent years, all while playing football. \u201cAfter the latest incident, I decided to call it quits. It was difficult at first because I was obsessed with the game growing up. But it\u2019s something I had to do if I wanted to stay active in other ways.\u201d<\/p>

This included working out at the gym and going on walks with his family. \u201cBoth my wife and I are PE teachers, so we are eager to instil a love for physical activity in our children,\u201d says the father of three, aged six years, five years and four months old. Despite being together for nearly two decades, the couple is passionate about keeping their romance alive. \u201cWe do this by going for bike rides and trail walks together, as well as enjoying a quiet meal in each other\u2019s company whenever we can.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Such moments of respite are welcome after long days in school, where DSP (NS) Syaifudin is also the Head of Discipline. He reveals that the past two years have been challenging for educators like himself. \u201cPE lessons and co-curricular activities have been adapted so that students can participate safely in small groups, depending on the prevailing safe management measures,\u201d he shares. \u201cBefore the pandemic, I would also speak at morning assembly at least once a week, reminding my students of the importance of self-discipline and inculcating good values and habits. But since we can\u2019t gather in large groups anymore, this is now done virtually. More work has to go into continually engaging the students at this time.\u201d<\/p>

Still, DSP (NS) Syaifudin remains passionate about his work because he enjoys mentoring and interacting with people, both young and old. It\u2019s something that his NS role also allows for. \u201cMost of my batchmates have already completed their NS obligations, but I\u2019m still at it, 13 ICT cycles later,\u201d he says. \u201cI am grateful for this chance to serve and groom the next generation of NSmen and I\u2019ll continue giving it my all while I still can.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
