Getting bulges in the right places
I have impressive bulges, but they’re in all the wrong places. Instead of situating themselves on my arms, pecs, calves, and Y-fronts, they’re lumped on my stomach and butt. At the moment, I look like a Michelin Man, but without the vapid smile and bloodless complexion.
It’s been two days since my first “workout.” After 15 minutes of cardio warmup that pretty much had my legs feeling like jelly, I did more legs, then arms, then abs. The training program I got at Slimmer’s came screaming back to me, and it was with that program that I went through the routine.
Two days later - as can be expected from months of relative inactivity - my long-dormant muscles came back to cuss me. My arms ache, my abs ache (even my side-abs; I didn’t even know they existed!), my legs ache. I feel like I’ve been run over by a steamroller. That, of course, didn’t stop me from walking an hour from the office to SM Makati to conduct some errands, and back. At this point, I feel like I’m making real progress. Some of my officemates are saying there’s noticeable change. Yay.
I look at some of my sophomore college photos, and I remember what it was like to be fit. At the end of the year, I promise myself, I will be.
Meanwhile, here’s a sample of some of the music I play on my (U)Nano while I work out. Not a big fan of dance-dance, but pop-rock with beats like this, I like, I like. Call My Name by Charlotte Church is one such track.
that was charlotte church??!!! THE charlotte church who belted out that operatic song “Pie Jesu” and who was acclaimed to have the “voice of an angel”???? merde… a 180-degree turn huh? wonder if oprah will invite charlotte back to her show to sing this song. don’t get me wrong, i kinda sorta like it. but wow… THAT was really charlotte church??? i even have a copy of her very first album, “voice of an angel.” what a major major MAJOR image makeover!
(sorry for the exaggerated comment… this really rocked my world - next thing you know, britney’ll be coming out with HER own version of ‘ave maria.’ that’s when i know the Second Coming is here)
Yeah, she did a 180 degree. Did you know she’s pregnant with Gavin Henson’s lovechild?
I had to google Gavin Henson before answering your question. By-Golly-Miss-Molly, I didn’t know she’s preggy, too, with a man who’s completely from the other side of her former posh opera-laden world (her boy DOES look hot, though!). She’s got guts, let’s give her that. Now, I gotta wonder, would Prince Charles ask her to perform again in his annual musical concert? More importantly, would Charlotte want to do so again?
