I am going to train Sara right now, she came to circuit class this morning and she is a little worried about the family wedding that they are going to this weekend because she has been doing really well with her diet and smoking/drinking. I tried to give her some advice on better food choices and to try to put salad dressing on the side of the salad. I also told her that she might want to have a glass of water between drinks so that she is never in a situation where she is not holding something and it will also help her so that she stays hydrated and it helps to prevent hang over’s.
Sara told me that her arms are sore from the workout this morning, so I decided that we could do some cardio today. I actually had Sara running on the treadmill today. It was the first time in a long time that she has run and she is surprised with herself that she could actually do it, Sara has a habit of saying “I can’t do it” to certain things and I know she can. I would not ask her to do it if I did not think she could do something.
Sara is getting stronger and it is really nice to see. I am not sure if she realizes this but she will soon.
Rob Fraser came into day for his session and as he came into the Shack Gym I noticed that he was limping really badly. I know that he has bad knees but they have not been that bad. Over the past couple weeks it has been getting worse, he showed me his knee and it is twice the size of the other one. I told him that he needs to get this checked out sooner rather than later because it is not going to get any better. I also told him that he had better have it checked out before I see him again; he has a physio that he knows, I told him he better go there.
I had no idea about his knee so I have to change my game plan for the workout, it’s not a problem what we can do today is an upper body session and I can include boxing for his cardio session. The great thing about boxing it gets his heart rate up so he will sweat but it does not put any pressure on his knee. There is sweat flying everywhere and I am working him hard. I love this because even though he has a sore knee he still wants to be pushed hard and he loves it.
Jen is here now and she is really not happy about being here, Jen said that she had to force herself to come today because she does not feel like being here today. Jen does not have any goals that she wants to work on today but she thinks she might feel better if she works out.
Is funny the first week we were here you were all gung ho for training, now it seems to me that you really could care or less if we were here or not. It seems to me that you have lost your drive and then Jen tells me its life. I have to say that I am really not feeling for her, I great really tired of hearing about people that complain about their lives when they actually having nothing to complain about. I do know that there are people out there that do have a tough life and I will say Jen does not, for god sake she has new gel nails every week so it can’t be that bad.
So because of her attitude I found it really hard to train her today because I knew she was not motivated, I really would have liked to kick her ass but I would have just made myself frustrated.
