Whiner

So, I'm at the gym on Tuesday,
1 hr session with Paul, my trainer not my husband
and all of a sudden he says,
"You know what, maybe we should just call it a day. I don't
think you have it in you."

*sound effects* car skidding to a halt.

WHAT?!!!

Ok, let me back up and set the scene.
We were working on

ABS.

First on the mat doing double crunches.
Double crunches

Truly the worst thing I have
EVER DONE at the gym.
EVER.
4 sets of 20.
I was stopping after 10.
Sometimes doing one then resting.
Oh and I may have been complaining a little.
Paul, my trainer not my husband actually
SAT DOWN while I was trying to finish.

THEN
we went right over to the torture chair


Also known as the abdominal crunch machine.
I was like
"ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING ME??"
Please note that I did not say that
but I'm pretty sure my thoughts were
singing out loud and clear.

THAT
was when he said, "Maybe we're done."

I said, "No, I just can't do this anymore. How
about arms?
PLEASE LET'S TORTURE MY ARMS FOR AWHILE!!!"
I sounded like a crack head.

So we finished up with arms but the whole time
Paul, my trainer not my husband was very quiet.

So, yesterday I had another training session.
I said...
"About yesterday.....I did some thinking and maaaaybe
I complained a little, I'm sorry."
He said, everyone whines now and then.

OMG
I was whining at the gym???!!!!
I AM PAYING THIS GUY TO LISTEN TO ME WHINE??

Then he said, no, you weren't whining, maybe complaining
a little.

Ok.

So I said, the next time I complain just tell me to
SHUT IT.

He agreed.

For the rest of my session I was all smiles.
Everything was 'AWESOME!'
NO COMPLAINING AT ALL.

This is not going to last.
