How do you work out??
ive been going to the gym since i was 12....been to many different gyms and have seen many ppl come and go at the regular gyms that i go to. today i was at a new one: clubfitt bukit gombak (with bun). i get bored easily and while im on the cardio machine i'll just let my mind wander........and i suddenly thought of blogging about how people workout differently to suit their lifestyle and characteristics. here are just some of my observations :D
1. The Tai Tai's workout
who? taitais. duh. normally those who dont have anything to do in the afternoons...
characteristics: briskwalking on the threadmill, stepping away on the eliptical machine, doing free weights (exercises that their personal trainer taught them)
2. The Athelete's workout
who? mainly sportspeople or secondary school students who have alot of energy
characteristics: running like mad on the threadmill for a very long time, utilising all the weight machines around the room
3. The Britney Spears workout
who? skinny girls
characteristics: some sort of cardio...doesn't matter what as long as 3/4 of their workout is spent doing different kinds of situps and occasional LIGHT weightlifting.
4. The Dai Chek Lou (cantonese for big guy) workout
who? aspiring bodybuilders
characteristics: big heavy weights, usually making the most noise in the gym with their "ah, ergh, oof"
5. The Businessman's workout
who? people who chat up potential clients/contacts in the gym
characteristics: paddling very slowly on the cross trainer so that they can still talk.
6. The Rehab workout
who? old men/women or injured individuals
characteristics: stretch ALOT, walk very very slowly on the threadmill
7. The Average workout
who? an average working singapore
characteristics: walking to the bus stop, lifting files and maybe a baby.
