I'll never let anyone Paint It Black, nor shall I be Ignorant of my surroundings. We just being relax ourselves  while listening to Nessun Dorma, coz later it's gonna be Metal Kombat for the mortal men. After all this..everyone will yell "Your Shining". When I look back I tell him “ I want you to Put Your Hands On Me, coz without you, All that is done doesn't mean anything” – Put together by fellow combater, modified by me.

After had a tired LMQ2 launch session, we all went to Marketplace to have a team building training. Those who went to Marketplace would definitely know what’s team building I meant.

Everybody get topless and I got surprise bonus! I got to smootching with a guy…donno who lah…just random guy there….no string attached.

Les Mills 2010 Q2 Launch

Coming to KL all way down from Penang on 18 Jun Friday to attend Les Mills 2010 Q2 Launch in True Fitness Jaya33. And of course met up with great friends, Eric, Elvin, Jerry, Calvin, Jason, Michael and Freddie. Only Eric, Elvin (there are compulsory), Jerry, Calvin, Jason Michael join the launch.

Basically I’m quite disappointed with this time Q2 launch, the intensity not much to my expectation.

Being fans of RPM, this release is nothing to me, the track song are so so, the difficulty and intensity, I rate it 6/10; only T7 hyped up. And I finally met the One in TF RPM LMQ210 launch. The one that also crazy to RPM, he attend minimum 7 RPM per week and do double RPM! So happy to know someone that share the same passion!

Body Pump, I consider normal. My instructor tell me to watch out T2 (squat track) and T7 (lunges track). There are surprise in this release in T2, no bottom half, but is down and hold squat; since I join ABT class regularly, thus this move will not be any problem to me. However, T7, lunges track is really a challenge; the track longer than the usual, it is consider the hardest lunges track ever release.

Body Combat, not explosive enough as what I expected because I already watch the Les Mills Launching video. Sorry to TF member who read this blog post, the instructors on stage performance was not up to my expectation. They not really push and give 200% of intensity and energy and forget the choreography as well but it was fun though. So I shall wait for my gym CF in Penang launch in next week to see the true colour of BC44.

Body Step, no review yet as I haven’t attend the launching.

Overall I rate Les Mills 2010Q2 launch is 7/10

That’s Not My Name!

It first happen last 2 weeks, I join this new combat instructor; he was replacing He-Who-Must-Not-be-Named’s class coz he is attending LM Q210 work shop. I bump with this new instructor in locker room isle, I just finish my shower and he wanna had him.

Instructor: Hey James! finish already?

Me: (blur, blur) errr yeah…

after I answer him, I look my behind to make sure he is talking to me….nobody behind me…so yeah…out of no where I was known as James to him….

Then last weekend, his class also; we bump each other again, we both just finish shower, so happen his locker next to mine.

Instructor: Hey! You are James right?

Me: err….nope, my name is Paul.

Instructor: harr?? I always thought your name is James…

Me: No lah…where you get the idea I’m James?

Instructor: hahaha…….Donno…By the way, nice to know you Paul.

I’m surprised that still got member or frequent class I join that the instructor don’t know my name.

So finally James has been “corrected” as Paul.

Did thing like this ever happen to any of you guys? People out of sudden calling you different name.

Disciplined or Addicted

It has been well known among you guys, gym instructors and some of the gym member that I am a hardcore gym member. I attend almost all possible classes that I could. On the other day, I chatted with one of the member, she was shock that I attend up to 5 classes and amazed.

Wahhh…you really discipline huh?? or you addicted??

It really stuck my mind when I that question throw to me. Am I being discipline or addicted to gym class.

As I wrote in my previous post, I had gym class minimum 2 per day and can have up to 5 classes, total make up 20 classes per week! Sometime I wonder where I get those energy and stamina to do so. Well, stamina needs time to build up, perhaps it’s all about mind. Mind over the body so to speak. Although I tell myself 20 is the maximum, I’m trying to find by any chance I can get 21 or 22.

I feel agitated and guilty when I know that there is class and I not attend. I feel fat when knowing that there is class going on but I just lay on my bed, watching movie.

Am I sick?? Is there such illness? Like Bulimia is sickness that one don’t want to eat. How about addicted to gym? I seems can’t stop myself attending gym classes. And I keep on add up the difficulty. In RPM class, sometime I taunt the person next to me to increase the tension, there was a time I turn the bicycle knob until it cannot turn anymore.

Maybe I think too much.

Inspiring

Today something new happen in gym. No no…not any random hot guy approach me… although I wish it happen >.< It happen in Body Combat class.

After I finish Body Pump class, 2 members approach me (they actually my colleague) and ask me what’s the next class I gonna join as they want to join as well. And thus they join me in Combat class, stand next to me.

As newbies in combat class, their movement all salah and not synchronize. I tell them dont fret, just do what the instructor and I do. I guide them movement by movement, jab, upper cut, hook, font kick, knee up, etc. They promise will come to tomorrow 11am class!

After the class complete, they ask me what’s other classes I join as they want to join as well. They ask me to plan classes for them! 

Be Bold, be brave and be inspired!

Les Mills 2010 Q2 Lauching

Just after gym class over, I had chit chat with two members and The-Naughty-One at the gym lounge bar area. We talk about the upcoming LM Q2 release and our class schedule, they are suprise to know that I had target 20 classes per week and officially label me being a hardcore gym member hahahaa...

I really anticipating the upcoming LM Q2 launch. In RPM class just now, The-One-Must-Not-be-Name gave us preview on the song for RPM, and Pump; the track is damn hot especially RPM; it's going to be the music take control our mucles to paddle more and more again. As for Pump, there will be no bottom half for squad track (T2), but there will be down and hold; it will be pretty tough, plus T7 - lunges, will be difficult, very difficult. For Combat, no need for me to elaborate more as we have got expert among us, just that T6 and T8 would be marvellous coz T6 will need lotsa balance and T8 will be and epic! Why? Coz it last for 8 minutes over!!! You gonna feel like never ending! As for Step, I don't have much information about it.

I ask He-Who-Must-Not-be-Name when will be LM Q2 launch in CF Penang, he still can't gave me the exact date yet, so I am thinking maybe wanna go launching event in TF KL, *hinting someone here to bring me... ahheemm... aaahheem* The-Naughty-One did told me the theme this time in Penang CF launch might be Super Hero, quite cool huh!

I still haven't see the LM Q2 poster yet, hope it will be cool!

So Body Pumpers, Body Combaters, Body Steppers and RPM folks! Gear up and get ready!
