When there’s a will, there’s a way.

To sign up for gym is easy peasy. but.. go really GO is another story. so i signed up on Tuesday and i thought of going there on Wednesday, but my lazy ass say no… (ala Little Britain). Cos i had to wake up at 6am on Thursday for work, got event.. (excuses…) So Thursday.. but i forgot to pack my gym attire and put in the car. So i thought ok.. go back and change then go cos i finish at 4.30 and should reach home at 5 and still got time to change and go. but i thought nap a bit only go.. recharge ma.. woke up at 6 weh.. BUT i SLEPT til 11.30pm. wtf wtf! (and i thought i was late for work! hahaha! messed up the time and body clock… so TODAY, i finish work at 1pm. so i came home and service car, until about 3pm then i thought, okay… 4pm can go. so i avoid “napping” and niamah.. watched tv until 5. (actually still contemplating wanna go or not.. it’s drizzling weh..) okay la.. finally the angel took over the devil. so i changed, pack my things cos have to go Mid Valley for dinner with ex colleagues, and drove out. i thought.. “okay ma… it’s not HARD to go gym right…” then then… halfway driving, i realised i forgot to bring my comb. :P but i thought.. fuck it.. comb only ma.. no need to comb hair after shower nehmind.. tie up lor.. and then…… i realised that i forgot the most important thing.. after shower i dry with what?? cibai.. forgot to bring towel of all things. (cis.. dugaan..) so i made a u-turn to take it. (by that time, the devil almost took over and said “it’s a SIGN!! you’re meant to stay at home to SLEEP” but the angel is stronger… “drive a short distance only… work out and look GREAT is more important right?”).

so i finally reached that place. another dugaan is parking. have to make 3 rounds before i found it.. somemore half to walk a bit in the rain. nehmind… workout is more important! so i reached there at about 5.30pm. still got ample time to workout.

since it’s my actual first day, the trainer took my body measurements and weight. i almost died knowing my weight weh… too long didn’t weigh myself at home (in denial, remember?) ok lah.. maybe a bit exaggerated, but it’s the heaviest of my life weh!! fml. okay, so apparently my body fat is within the normal range, my body water is like 40 or 50% i can’t remember. wtf.. and my body muscles is only 26%?? hahaha.. damn wtf and fml. checked my diabetes also.. it’s within the normal range. so the trainer told me if i start working out,  i can lose that water a bit and muscles can go higher a bit. wtf.. he din say weigh will drop one? bleh.

then he asked me to cycle on that thing to check my dunno what. so i cycle lo… he put a clip on my ear to check the pulse rate one.. then he said my pulse is a bit higher than normal. normal people would have 95-98? (if i remember correctly from what i studied in form 3 wtf. lol. correct me if i’m wrong.)

ok.. i found something about pulse rate..

What is Normal Pulse Rate?
The normal pulse rate for humans, while resting, ranges between 60 to 80 beats per minute. In well-conditioned athletes, the pulse rate can also be as low as 60. When the pulse rate exceeds the normal range for a resting pulse, the condition is referred to as tachycardia, and when it falls below the normal range, the condition is referred to as bradycardia. Immense variations are observed in the heart rate when the individual indulges in different activities. For instance, while sleeping the pulse rate of the individual may drop down to as low as 40 beats per minute, whereas while exercising, it may rise to as high as 150 - 200 beats per minute. To understand about normal heart rate read more on what is normal heart rate.

Normal Pulse Rate for Adults: The normal pulse rate for men is approximately 68 to 75 beats per minute, whereas the normal pulse rate for women is approximately 72 to 80 beats per minute. The normal pulse rate for adults, at rest or during some physical activity, depends on their age and weight. For instance, a younger woman will display a higher heart rate than an older woman. Similarly, a woman with more weight will display a higher heart rate compared to her counterpart with less weight.

Normal Pulse Rate for Children: The normal pulse rate for children varies according to their age. For instance, the normal pulse rate for an infant would range between 100 to 160 beats per minute, whereas the same in toddlers or young children would range between 70 to 120 beats per minute. Older children most often display a pulse rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute.

wtf.. see what i highlighted?

ok, continue with my pulse rate… it’s 102-107. ya.. it’s either i’m still an infant, toddler, young child or.. I AM HEAVY to get that kind of pulse. but actually, even when i was still in secondary school, i’ve checked my normal pulse rate is memang above 100 one.. so i think it’s normal for me gua… (hyperactive? don’t think so..) but there must be some scientific explanations right? i dunno.. but i think so far i’m quite healthy *touch wood* so my pulse is not a big problem (my weight is).

so anyway.. yeah.. after the cycle thingy, he checked and i was ok. overall normal.

then….

we went to do some real workout.

biceps and triceps is ok la.. not very hard to do. but the thigh part.. i tell you… cos i tried the first time on Tuesday and my inner thigh muscles are still very sore until now. so he asked me to do the inner thigh.. wtf very hard lor. cos the pain from the first time i did it is still there and he ask me to do one set.. okla.. he lighten it for me after i said cannot move. wtf. i managed to complete it la.. then after all that arms and thighs, abs pulak..(main point – tummy). the machines for abs are very bearable. but when he asked me to lie down and lift my leg up to do a 90 degree or L shape, i really thought i died. (ok., exaggerating again) the first time i did was on Tuesday and i gave up after 4 times. but today, cannot embarrass myself. i managed to finish the set. *pats self*  

so basically, working out is really hardwork! wtf.

so after all that, he asked me to do cardio. and i thought…”ok lah.. at last can cycle a bit….” but he walked me to the treadmill! wtf wtf wtf. i was like… “not the treadmill… not the treadmill..” ugh. -_-

i hate running! the last time i ran was like… TEN years ago??!? wtf.. and that’s one of the reason i stopped hockey cos too much running.. and he ask me to run. fml. okay.. so in order to save my face from embarrassment, i run lo… when he said “15 minutes, ok?” i immediately felt like its going to be 15 years. T_T

so i walked for  3 mins and ran for 5 mins and walk and run… and walk.. and run.. i kept looking at the time it really feels long… but i finally found a secret to keep running. (i ended up running more than walk in that 15 minutes).

ok.. actually got 3 secret.

1. I WANT TO GET MY MONEY BACK from Smelly.

2. must prove to Uncle Mun that i’m not 3 minutes heat! (三分钟热度）that day he splash a bucket of cold water (put lang sui/泼冷水) say i won’t maintain it one…

3. ULTIMATE moral/emo/psycho support is.. i MUST look great in THAT dress! *imagine looking stunning in THAT dress* cannot look BIG/FAT/FLABBY/LOOSE/CHUBBY/horrible in THAT dress!

 

i tell you… i keep on imagining no. 3 that i don’t feel tired or out of breath while running! wtf!! normally i run ten steps i’ll feel tired,out of breath, stomach cramp, dizzy, what else..? LAZY? but no, while i imagine, i ran even faster and didn’t even think that it’s running! it’s like… “ceh… like walking only what…” like that!! muahahahaha…

so from now onwards, i’ll use that “ultimatum” to run.

 

it is really not easy ok… i mean to actually GO to gym.. so now i’ll think of the ULTIMATUM every time the devil creeps back in.
