Today was the first day for my training program. I need feel any pressure and I wasn’t nervous. I knew that I was going to be the only male in the gym room. Now..I didn’t know it’s that hard for the first time. I mean hard. At first everything is cool and all, it’s normal for a beginner to make most of the exercises wrong or can’t do them at all. That’s cool for me. Now when the stomach exercises came, man…this computer is a deadly poison, for real. It doesn’t matter if you are a programmer or not, movement is required.

Since I am all about art of movement(we discuss Le Parkour in great detail further on) I have no idea why I never did any sports before. Such a bad mistake. But it’s better later than never right? Right.

The instructor was a very good looking young woman, in my opinion somewhere near my age. The whole idea of starting this sport was thanks to my classmate - Doroteia(when you look at it, it seems somewhat WoWish name.). So we went there I waited for the women to get dressed. And I went into to gym alone to get dressed, not that I mind somewhere watching me, I have nothing to hide. Either way my cellphone and my 1 euro weren’t that much of a big deal to me :).

Between 30-40 minutes later we were doing the leg exercises. I could barely stretch my legs, guess why up and down..on the chair. And during of the exercises, I heard something like a small noise/laugh. I turned around my friend obviously had made back flip. And at first I didn’t turn around, but the women were laughing and I just thought : what the hell did I do? I know am in very bad shape but there is no need to laugh at me. I turned around and my friend was crouching to get at her position. Kind of funny. Even though she weights around 50kg and I am around 75, I didn’t want to embarrass myself by whining or falling on the floor. I got rescued :D

I have to admit that even though I haven’t practiced any kind of sport during my life(not counting video games) when the training session was over I just felt happy. I don’t know what that is. Just felt happy, that’s it.
