Can I have a personal trainer pretty please?

I pegi gym semalam.

Ewaaaahhhh! Sudah maju ye kau,
Tot?!

Actually I went because a friend of mine joined and she gave my number to Fitness First. So, Saturday afternoon, I got a call from an Ashwin inviting me over to check out their facilities and see if I'm interested to join.

Truth be told, I've always wanted to join a gym. I think it will be a nice change to be doing structured excercises under a professional's supervision rather than doing some random cardio workouts on my own.

So yesterday, I went with my sister to AEON Bukit Tinggi, Klang. Gigih kaaaauuuu! Tak tau jalan bagai, tapi sanggup ber-GPS dan mengharungi perjalanan yang mengambil mase dalam 1 jam one way! Lemme tell you, the drive to Klang nearly drove me crazy (See what I did there? No?...Oh nevermind.) Sangatlah boring tak terkate..Radio pun tak dapat membantu okay.

Anyway I digress. After about an hour and 3 tolls later, we arrived at Klang and went to Fitness First. Itulah first time I stepped into a gym. Memang la jakun kannn. Looking at the treadmills, cross-trainers, steppers in what they call the Cardio Theatre, I felt like I'd died and gone to fitness heaven.

Then, Ashwin took us over to the Group Exercise Room. Honestly, when he said group exercise, my mind conjured up this image of an aerobics class with makciks and an instructor standing in front of the class in neon-coloured leotards shouting, "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. 8 lagi!", yeah...that one. Sangkaanku salah. Because when I peeked inside the room, the participants were pakciks and makciks BUT there were also youngsters. AND AND AND instructor die sangat HOT! Young and muscular. *wipes drool* Oh and they were doing BODY FRIGGIN' COMBAT! Sumpah I jealous. =(

Anyway, shortly after that, Ashwin explained to us the joining fee, the membership fee. To cut the story short, basically if I were to join yesterday, I'd to pay RM319 and a monthly fee of RM205. Ahhhh, memang hancur la kan harapan nak join. Gaji pun ciput je, if I'd joined, memang stok makan rumput la tiap-tiap bulan okays! They were really cool, they tried to cut the price even more for me because they could see I was very interested. They even offered a one-week trial but the problem is not that I was reluctant to join. It was because of the monthly financial commitment that I've to make if I were to join. So unfortunately I had to turn down the one-week trial.

Dahlah I couldnt join, lagi menyakitkan hati was that my sister joined! I'll explain to you guys why I was shocked and a wee (okaylah a lot) jealous.

The girl who refused point blank to go jogging with my parents and me in the mornings at the Polo grounds, who considers walking leisurely from Point A to Point B a form of torture, who cringed when I asked her to join me for Adidas King of the Road last year, that girl committed to a year of exercising with Fitness First yesterday. I told her I'd personally kick her ass if she even considers skipping any of her workout sessions. Yes. I. Was. Serious.

Nevermind la, lets put it this way, I can sponge off fitness knowledge from her after a couple of months kan? Ye, ayat untuk memujuk diri sendiri (dah takde orang nak pujuk, yedok?!) Even if I dont trust her (just in case instructor ajar die buat A, karang die ajar I buat B+C karang tak ke naya? Because she has the attention span of a 5 y.o...Eh wait, I think that's me) I have to try to trust her la kan because I just found out that my metabolism rate is that of a 48 y.o. woman.





Okay dah tak sanggup nak sambung dah lepas keluarkan statement tu.

Bye.

OH OH HI ADILLLLLL!
