Happy 1 year anniversary gym!

Today is my 1st year anniversary of going to gym. I wonder how long this is going to last for. 2 years? I doubt it.

A full time KPMG Audit employee + CA student would not be able to make it to gym. Unless the gym opens till midnight for me. Which is possible, because my mum told me she wants to make an "indoor home gym" at my new house. Who knows, it might be true, or it might be like another "aquarium chair" idea that is not achievable.

Let me reflect upon my 1 year gym experience.

I initially started going to Genesis Doncaster with Tim.

When I first started, I went to gym 3 times a week. I kept going for THT aerobics class, body pump, and normal gym.

3 months later, Tim decided to be a Bernadette and gave up on gym. Since then, he occasionally does 50 push ups a day and eats 1.5kg of gummy bears all by himself.

3 months later, I was a little demotivated because Tim doesn't go to gym with me anymore. Luckily, my gym buddy Joanne decided to join Genesis with me and since then I not only became a regular gym attendee but also made a very good friend =)

Within the first 6 months of gym, I was very tempted to transfer to either Fitness First or Aquarena with Yiing. However, I still stayed true to Genesis until I got pretty sick of their smelly weights machines with guy's sweat smell. Furthermore, I also didn't like the fact how 6 out of 10 treadmills would be "not in use" and you can never find parking within 5pm-7pm.

Within the first 6 months of gym, I've also reversed into someone's holden car while trying to back out from gym and that goes my first accident.

After 6 months in Genesis, in addition with my little increase of wealth from my KPMG job, I decided to take ove Xinni's Fitness First membership. My gym fees now have increase from $65 a month to $87 a month. Is it worth it?

If you ask me, I would say yes only if I go to gym 3 times a week.

However, since then, my last 6 months of gym, I started going to gym only twice a week. One body pump, one normal gym. My motivation for gym now isn't to lose weight, or get healthy, but simply because to justify the amount i'm paying.

Btw, within a year, my gym buddy has changed from Tim to Joanne to now, my mum.

I have to admit that within this year, I've probably put on 2kg in muscles and lost 1kg of fat. So all in all, I've lost 1kg in 1 year. Putting weights aside, I feel that I am a much healthier person. Whenever I stop going to the gym for let's say 1 week, I actually have this 'unhealthy feeling".
My diet has also improved since then. No more magnum icecream, 2 lunches, and supper everyday.

Good job Gloria Wong. Keep it up.

My goal for next year? Continue to make my muscles a fixed asset and lost another kg of fat.

Till then, we'll see.
