Unguided Workout
A funny thing happened at the gym the other night. My trainer was a no-show.
And you thought that if anyone would be a no-show at a gym, it would have to be me! (I’d have made the same bet, actually, so I don’t take any offense.)
I have expected that he was hiding somewhere just watching to see what I would do, and that if I tried to slip out, he’d corner me at the door. I noticed a while back that there are small two-way mirrors along the top of one wall, which leads me to believe that there are spaces up there where employees can monitor the goings-on at the gym. I doubt that they actually do; it’s just as likely that this building used to be a grocery store or department store and had security personnel who really did venture up there as part of the routine. But I don’t really think anyone is watching people workout.
In any case, I went ahead with my routine, sort of combining a workout he suggested last week with a few new exercises of my own. I focused on upper body, because my legs are still ridiculously sore from my last lower body workout. (Seriously: what the hell’s with all the pain? People actually like this??)
I haven’t tried calling the trainer, yet, to find out what happened. At least at this point, I think that should be his responsibility.
We shall see.
