Fitness First

I know that I would miss the gym and had intended to join a gym membership. The plan was to do so in January bcos we would be away for 2 weeks in end December and I don't want to lugi on the gym membership fee. 

I also eyeballed and saw that there is Fitness First in Junction 10. That is walkable from our place. I had thought I would be able to survive on HiiT workout and jogging for 2 weeks until I am back from the holiday but I was so wrong. 

After the 1st HiiT at home, I cringed at the idea of more HiiT or jogging. The thought was bad enough to ask for a free trial at the FF website. Lol. 

The consultant called me back shortly. I think he can smell sales. Hearing my plight, he "generously" invited me down to use the gym. Anytime! Just tell the counter staff that I am his guest. 

I went down to use the elliptical machine the next morning. Hoho. 

The gym is big and very well-equped. They also have 3 branches in Raffles Place. 

I was super happy and satisfied with the workout. Then it was the consultation session aka sales talk. He didn't have to tell me much bcos I have read up already. I was going to join a gym anyhow in January. 

Did I sign up? Of course. My membership will start on 1 Jan when we are back. The membership will also allowed me to use other branches gym. Meanwhile, I can use the any branches gym freely. The consultant will always sign me in as a guest and would need to register the classes on my behalf for the time being. Troublesome but what is a bit of trouble to save $$? 

I immediately asked him to help me booked a spin class for Thursday evening. I had always wanted to experience a spin class. 

The verdict? It is confirmed more tiring than actual cycling. I was panting or panting hard for the 45 mins class. By the end of it, my legs are jelly. Power siol. 

I am eyeing the next class and excited at the variety of exercises available. Colours to  my boring treadmill and elliptical. Hohoho.
