Various commentary and observations and a bit of snark, behind the cut: time to get back in shape.
( It's like, every time I get a trainer, I have to train them, first. )
Now I just have to figure out how to take what the trainer suggested, and pad it out and change it so it's a six-day-a-week program that will be enough to make me crawl out of there every single time. Sheesh. I'm not sure whether he gave me such a low bar because he's taking my age/weight/shape into account, or if he gave me such a low bar because he honestly didn't realize he's dealing with the mental training (if not the current physical shape) of an athlete and that doing just one mile per hour isn't in my mental cards. I want to do far more than that, and I like being pushed that hard. I don't like feeling patronized or pitied or underestimated.
Bleah. Guess on Monday I'll be asking after the manager, to politely request someone who'll take me seriously. Le sigh.
