Since May when I started going to the gym, I have gotten friendly with some of the trainers, who are a fun bunch of people. They've noticed that I've made progress (well, ****, I'm there every day!) and have offered me a free personal training session, but I never took anyone up on it.
HOWEVER, last week this one woman named Sophie told me she was giving me two free personal training sessions just because she's "proud of me." I made it really clear to her that I can't afford to buy any sessions (they are nearly $100/session!), but she absolutely *refused* to take no for an answer. She insisted that it wasn't a sales pitch, that she just thinks it would be really helpful for me to pick up some new exercises and build a comprehensive program. AND she said I'd mess up her karma if I didn't take them. I don't want that on my conscience!
Anyway, my first session is tomorrow, and while I'm looking forward to it, I'm also SO NERVOUS! When I first joined, I got a complimentary session, but I was so nervous and out of shape (and hadn't eaten anything all day... so stupid!) that I almost passed out, and we had to stop the session early. Even though I know I'm actually pretty fit now, I have this irrational fear that I won't be able to do the stuff she wants me to do!
Anybody with or without a trainer want to assuage my fears? Am I pathetic, or what?
