A Virgin

Like a virgin, touch for the very first time.

Yes, I’m virgin all over again. You believe me? Why not?! >.<

I lost my virginity in teaching RPM! I was returning back to Penang on Wednesday, and my first RPM was on Thursday class. Reach gym, hang out awhile, read newspaper then I saw my He-Who-Must-Not-be-Named, he was chatting with the-Naughty-One and another instructor. I then pass him my pass letter and assessment sheet to him, we all chat and talk about my experience in Bali training, then suddenly

“later you do track 3 ar”

O_O “err… ok”

I then immediately go back to my locker, get my player and start to listen to the music coz I not prepare at all!

Later in RPM studio, I was nervous when I was in stage bike, not that I never did this before, but I never teach in a class!!

“Can you do track 4? You know the choreo?”

“err.. not remember much wor…”

“then never mind lah, you just do track 3”

Time up! the class almost start, the class almost full!

“hello, today we got new instructor! Mr. Paul!”

I donno why sometime he likes to refer me as Mr. Paul…. –.-“

When reach my track, I was nervous; indeed I feel like a virgin, touch for the very first time!

Track 3 is rolling hills, the ride is with the feeling you are riding on hill. I got carried away by the music, I was from RPM48 release, Madonna’s Celebration. I turn up the resistant too much!

After the class over, he as the-Naughty-One to evaluate me coz he in the class as well. The evaluation I got.

1. chorey good
2. Coaching, ok. not expected to be good coz after all it was my first attempt
3. timing. I need to improve my timing
4. resistant. some part my resistant not enough and some part I turn too much resistant. I need to
     learn  to manage my resistant.

“Don’t give up and shy, team teach few more time and I’ll be good!”

Of course I won’t give up! I gonna put more effort and looking forward to do my next team teach!

1st attempt: 1 track
2nd attempt: 2 tracks
3rd attempt: 4 tracks (1st half of the class)

Wish me luck!

Body Shock

No no no….. this is not the new class by Les Mills. Is changes in my body. Remember my post about the supplement I took? Vitargo. I really make my body consume lotsa energy, means my metabolism is increase! Maybe because one of it function is to increase endurance and thus my when I attend class, I can push even more, push my limit.

This morning, for the first time, not really first time lah… but long time I not felt it already, I was actually wake up because I felt hungry! When reach office, I go have breakfast, what did I ate? I ate noodles, 1 egg, 1 fish cake, 1 yogurt; half an hour later, alas! I felt hungry! damn! my body consume energy more than what I input!!

Then lunch, I took extra portion, 5 scoop table spoon of rice (normally just 3 scoop), 3 pieces of normal cut chicken and some vegetables, you guys know what? 1 hour later, I felt hungry!!! >.< I was like WTF!!! I cannot continue to eat! I’m gonna fat!

And just now in gym class, I really push in RPM effortlessly, of course because I take the supplement, but then when it comes to Body Pump class, my heart rate and my stamina cannot catch up with my endurance!

And so after gym class over, I ask the-Naughty-One for his opinion. He said my body metabolism has changed because I had taken the supplement; he then ask what I had for my breakfast and lunch, and so I told him. Then he scold me! >.< I don’t take enough carb! >.<

Being advice to cut the noodles, change to take bananas instead, and I need to increase my rice intake. Then around 3-4pm eat some complex carbohydrate like sweet potato or bananas.

Tomorrow is my cardio day, Body Step follow by Free Style Cycling then Body Combat. Let’s see any changes, will my stamina and endurance comes together or not.

Vitargo

No no no no….. not Vitagen, is Vitargo, a sport supplement, introduced to me by the-Naughty-One.

 

What is Vitargo leh? Vitargo is a patented carbohydrate with unique properties, specially formulated for elite athletes to give an effective loading of easily accessible muscles energy (glycogen) in the body. Vitargo is a considerably larger carbohydrate than ordinary sport drinks carbohydrates, the molecular structure remind of glycogen.

The larger carbohydrate, the quicker the drink passes through the stomach and then the intestines can absorb the energy into your blood stream. Thus Vitargo is quicker in replenishing glycogen levels and passing through the stomach compare with the normal combinations of complex glucose polymers. Vitargo+Electrolyte is mineralised with Sodium, Potassium, Calcium and Magnesium.

So, in short, it increases endurances, shortens recovery time! Today I had Power Jump, RPM then Pump, back to back; just after I finish RPM I felt hungry and my energy level drop to around 40%, since the-Naughty-One brought me this supplement, so I took before pump class. It really amazing! My endurance really increase! And I don’t feel tired after the class

The actual day to put this supplement into test will be Wednesday coz I’m going to have Body Step, Free Styling Spinning then Body Combat, my cardio day!

Dream Class

I was chatting with the-Naughty-One just now, he is asking me about me taking RPM module training, too bad I cannot take it coz the registration already full! >.< I have to wait another round! I got the news from He-Who-Must-Not-be-Named about it, and I posted in Facebook post, then 1 of the TF instructor comment that there will be in session in Bali, the class will be conducted by Dan Mcdonogh himself!… I was like OMG!! is him! he is 1 of the famous RPM quarterly launch presenter! sigh….

Back to my chat with the-Naughty-One, he told me about 1 of the instructor element – fitness magic. Thing that make your hair stand, make you want to push to the limits kind of magic! Fitness magic is one of the best time of connection ever in a room!

He then show me this!

He share with me his plan to have this sort of event and alas! me also have the same! He wants to have it in Penang, but I have bigger dream, have such event in Bukit Jalil Putra Indoor Stadium with collaboration 3 major fitness centre in KL for the launching event… don’t you guys think very awesome?!

Another Journey Has Begun
