Final visit

If I didn't go to the FF the curve today, I didn't realize that I haven't been visiting here for more than a year! And now the club in The Curve has been upgraded to platinum club, got free internet access.

Luckily the staff still allowed me to enter for today only even after they have checked and found that I'm not platinum member. So, I just went in, and joined 2 hours GX classes (Combat & Jam), and then surf net for 1/2 hour.

This will be the last time for me to visit to this branch, because I won't pay 215 every month just to become a platinum member and enter here. By the way I'm thinking of terminating my membership due to too little access. It's just a waste if I cannot at least utilize my 3 times access per month.

Good Bye, FF~! I really enjoy the time being in here. And I really really like Body Combat and Body Jam!

Back to FF today

This is the very first time I drove to KLCC. I couldn't find the way to Avenue K, therefore I parked at the very expensive carpark in KL.

I think this is the only time I could join combat class on Saturday evening, because starting from next week, I'll continue my JP class again. The instructor has changed, he's quite cute but his joke really.... can't make me laugh.

I feel 'free' when going there by '4-wheels', although I still need some time to get familiar with finding my way, I'm sure I'll learn by experience.

Back to Combat class

It's been quite a long time I hadn't entered to any FF club for this few months. I still remember the last time I joined the class, was the Miracle '08 in June. I've freezed my membership for July but even in August, I still couldn't really make it to attend even during weekends.

Luckily, before the month ended, I was still able to join at least one class. Actually I really like Body Combat, it's just the time problem. I like the kickboxing challenge, the rhythm, the music...... but too bad, it takes so much time to keep yourself maintaining to the class.

Hope that next month, I can attend more class otherwise I'll waste my monthly access fee don't know for what....

Miracle '08

This is the second time I joined the Miracle from Fitness First, but it's the first time I'm on my own all the time, because there wasn't anyone that knew me or I knew that could be with me. Just like sometimes what I am in the situation when I'm in the class. One of my buddy was the volunteered committee, she gotta work that day, so couldn't join the class.

Being in the class outdoor in public, was really a special experience for me. You gotta hold yourself until the end, otherwise you'll be embarrassing yourself among all the people around you. But I realized for being stopped for a long while, my stamina is getting worse, and couldn't really hold me until the end. It's bad, but I still gotta stay strong, tried my hard to follow the steps, but it really hurt, specially my muscles.

I've decided to stop the class for a while. If I really couldn't maintain to be there regularly, rather than paying them every month but not going. But I still don't want to terminate it. I hope that after next month, I can still maintain myself in the place, at least once a week.

Miracle is a charity programme, it raised fund for the children, as well as the China earthquake victims. I've contributed some to the programme. Hopefully next year I can join again, and also hopefully next time, I can find some more 'buddies' to be there with me.

Workout

I attended the class again. Although it's very tiring, I still try my best to attend the class every weekend, and this is what I can do at the moment.

The combat class in KLCC has been changed, since their previous instructor has dropped. Now SPK will be my new place for combat. The attendees for the class had inscreased, maybe some of them were from the KLCC club. I like the atmosphere, where everybody is enjoying themselves in the class, following the music and the beat, moving and working hard. That's why I like to be in here, although without any companion.

I have some friends joining the instructor training course, some of them has passed almost all the tests. I don't always meet them in the class because sometimes we are going to different clubs. I used to have a friend joining classes with me, but all left me alone. Although joining the class alone is somehow lonely, but I still have the passion and the perseverance to keep it on, haven't thought of quitting yet.

That day, I had a chance to have a small talk with our instructor. He advised me to join the pump class, although I still think it's quite heavy to me, maybe I'll have a try someday.

Combat Rocks!

Jab, cross, upper cut, hook, combat stance, invasive sidekick....... do you know these terms? It's specially for a group exercise I'm learning in the fitness center. It's a combination movement of kick-boxing, martial arts, Tai-Chi, Tae Kwan Do, Karate and so on. But of course, even you do very good in the class, it doesn't mean that you are a kungfu 'master' and can start 'fighting'...... I don't think even the instructor can do so... :P

The first group class I joined in this center was Body Jam, which is more in dancing movement. Although I prefer dancing than kungfu fighting, I mostly join the Combat class and because of this, I got to know and be friend with some of the club members and even current and future instructor (those who are taking the instructor training).

I think my weakness is my body is not strong enough to hold myself throughout the class. One of the movement that I still can't make it even after 1 years in the class is -- push up.

I hope that I can get improvement in the coming days. I don't expect to become as good like those instructors, but at least, it's not "char kuey teow" movement anymore.
