So as you know I have been going to work with
Personal Trainer. From my last post y'all know that the workout kicked my butt.
I am glad to say that I am not on death's door anymore. I am not saying that
the workouts have gotten easier. They haven't I am just adjusting better to the
workouts. After working out upper body and lower body the past two times today
Personal Trainer decided to put me through a full body work out. And for the
most part it was wonderful! It feels great to work muscles that haven't been
worked on in years. However as you can see from the title there was definitely a
mishap or two(let’s be real my entire life is a mishap mostly for the good)
Personal Trainer has already run me through the ringer. It was almost time for
Fat Barbie to be back in my little cottage with the air conditioning turned on
full blast. I swear I have never sweated so much as I have during these workouts.
I can literally taste sweet freedom. When Personal Trainer says "Hold on
Fat Barbie you've got one more thing to do" And can I say that with that
my heart fell just a little bit. However I am doing this to better myself and I
knew that I could do it. If I climbed the steps of the Duomo and didn't die
(once again thanks for that SkinnyBitch, I think i just regained my breath) So
I am wondering what little work out trick PT has drummed up for me. So with
visions of kettle bells, rowing machines and bench presses floating though my
brain I get ready for what I think is going to be so hard. Well imagine my
surprise when PT brings me to a bench and says all I will be doing is a basic
crunch extension on the bench. I couldn't help but be excited because these are
so easy. So I have to do three sets of fifteen, which doesn't seem like a big
deal. As I am getting through the first set I feel a little wobbly. No worries
though Fat Barbie pushed through. So I moved to the second set this is where
things get a little hairy. I am getting that wobbly feeling again. I should
have known something was up because before I could even stop myself I fall
tushy overhead right off that workout bench. Mortified doesn't even begin to
describe what I was feeling. I wouldn't have felt so bad if I hadn't
known someone at the gym. But I girl I had some classes with had just signed
into the gym and had seen Fat Barbie's ass in all its glory straight up in the
air. I have no idea how I managed that feat of sheer awesome but somehow it
happened. Now I want all of you readers out there to get a good laugh out of my
pain. Just imagine Fat Barbie flipping right over off a workout bench. It is
pretty funny looking back on it but my pride is still a little wounded
especially because before I flipped over the bench I had been working on a
machine that does squats and as I am squatting this weight my right knee gives
out and over I go. I fell TWICE in one workout. That's when I knew the gods
were against me and that I should basically give up. But never fear if I gave
up on things that embarrassed me I probably wouldn't have survived college
because man did I do some pretty embarrassing things. But those are stories for
another day. Well I hope I made your day and if you need a laugh just imagine
me falling right off a workout bench in front of God and everyone.
