SAVED BY THE RAIN
Lazy bugs had invaded my body. I haven’t gone to the gym in ages – despite pledging a commitment of at least three times a week. I went to four sessions of gym - in total, last month. This is not very encouraging.
Somehow, motivation is eroding subconsciously – I have yet to figure out what is going on. Maybe I am just plain lazy. However, the wet weather these days, miraculously work in favor for me. I have been saved by the rain.
With the heavy downpour right after 5 pm, I do not intend to waste 2 hours, under excessive profanities, to drive back home. I have no choice but to go to the gym.
On Wednesday, with my gym mate missing in action – she, too, was invaded by the lazy bugs, I decided to join the body step class for the third time.
Met two new friends in class – Alex & Vivi. The regulars. Guess it is good to mingle around rather than sticking to the ill-discipline gym mate.
On Thursday, I decided to try something different.
After 20 minutes, everyone was drained. Someone pleaded for a 10 seconds breather. The Nippon lady said – Nobody stops!
It was hilarious. It was fun. And it involves lotsa shouting. Highly recommended to combat stress.
I am simply anxious to go for another session.

Body StepIt was the “Shuffle” that got me lost. I just couldn’t do any steps with a 360 degrees turn. I am born with two left feet.
Right. Left. Knee. Heel. Straddle. Mambo. Hop Hop. Turn around the world. Shuffle!

Body Combat – with double instructor (females), a Japanese and a Malay.Think that was easy? I almost got myself killed in the class.
Jab. Punch. Kick. Jump. Jab. Sides.
