The 30-year-old had completed a National Service Fitness Improvement Training (NS FIT) session at Maju Fitness Conditioning Centre between 6.50pm and 8pm.
After the session, he reported feeling well to the fitness instructors and was cleared to leave the centre, Mindef said.
By 8.11pm, he had booked out of Maju Camp.
But shortly after leaving, he collapsed outside the camp.
Mindef added that resuscitation efforts were administered on-site and continued en route to the National University Hospital.
He arrived at the hospital around 9pm. Despite emergency medical interventions, he was pronounced dead at 9.54pm.
As a precaution, the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) has implemented a safety pause on NS FIT training until July 4 to review safety procedures and protocols and to remind soldiers on the importance of safety.
NS FIT is a 10-session programme that encourages NSmen to incorporate fitness and regular exercise into their lives. Since 2021, it has replaced the remedial and voluntary preparatory training aspects of the individual physical proficiency test.
