Walking into Sugarray Boxing and Fitness Gym on West 3rd, I didn’t know what to expect. I knew that I would be doing the impossible- namely working out. Hopefully not breaking too much of a sweat, and hopefully pain wasn’t a factor to be considered. I was meeting personal trainer, Vesna, a very cheerful, and very fit woman and very busy! (good busy of course, I can relate)
I must say, I, for one, love to eat and am not the biggest fan of working out. Y’know that meme or quote or whatever you call it ‘Girl dyou even lift” well no, I don’t.
To start the ball rolling, we went over assessment and what that basically means to newbies like myself- it’s measuring everything from body fat, BMI, weight, waist/hip sizes and blood pressure. After that, I went through a series of mini tests to measure my strength and stamina.
Basically what we did was a short 15 minute run (boy, I can’t run, I just..), sit ups, planks, push ups, and flexibility. This assessment was done towards helping Vesna create a plan specifically catered to the client’s needs and goals. It’s always good to have something to work for right?
We decided the goal would be towards strength and toning. Vesna also placed extra emphasis on performing the exercises in proper form.
Fun fact about myself, I am a yogi. I love yoga, more specifically hot yoga and I’ll let you in on a lil’ secret of why that is.
………
All we do most of the time is lie on the mat.
