Gym isnt a place which has been in my landmark navigation.
in fact... the word EXERCISE has ceased dramatically after my school days.
let's not even go to the extent of my non-existent exercise routine. (what routine???). if i can get my lazy arse to the park outside my apartment is considered a bonus in the evening. but im not self-motivated in the first place.
and so there's Jill who has been trying to brainwash encourage me to give a try for a workout at her gym centre Fitness First in PJ. no, she's not paid extra to con(vince) me. and as much of waking up before 10 on a sunday morning. and well, since she gets to bring in a non-member on weekends (which usually would be Jas and she wasnt available today somehow), i considered the offer.
motivated to get out of bed at 9 plus after a long night at SDS concert (i must say the MJ dances by them were so much slicker than D2Y's).... it was between my first jakun experience at a gym. or face the incessant blithering grills from jill.
i opted not to face the latter.
i feel like the participants in the
I Survived A Japanese Game Show. for someone who has ZERO stamina and who lacks exercise of what a normal person should be doing regularly.
it'll be quite funny if i stepped into a gym alone... and not knowing what all the buttons and whatnots and what the machine can do. that MUCH of a jakun... jill was nice and kind enough to TEACH me how to use the machines (from going through the entrance shutters and using the lockers to the equipments itself) and also to sabotage the speed that i should be at!
you know the ad for
Private Practise on ntv7... the one when Addison suddenly lost her momentum on the treadmill.... it's still in my head......
what if.....
i dont count the number of calories i burn. neither the distance i walked/crosstrain/whatever...... the aim was to sweat out and try not to overdo myself on the stamina. highly embarassing if i end up losing the colour on my face, which occasionally happens when im at the park.
sure could do a bit more on the weight lifting to tone up gradually on the arms. and probably something for the calf-thigh other than the crosstrainers....
a progress for a second trip?
maybe, i hope. who knows.... :P
