Went to the doctors. It's not fever, it is a flu. He said many people confuse flu (influenza) with common cold. I feel totally busted for days - as if I've turned into a feverish sotong. Don't think I'll be working out til next week.

Got it. Thanks.
Not sure about his fetish for the smith machine . But most FF trainers just looks lean -- not even close to muscular.

I don't really like trainers in FF lah. They prescribe similar routines for everyone - regardless of your goal. They don't go round to check if people are using the machines correctly, or doing the exercises in the right form. They are friendly alright, but they normally don't bother about you. I know california fitness trainers go round to make sure everyone is OK. I once got stapled in the bench. No trainers around to help me off. Nasib baik a nice chap came to my rescue.
I tried asking the chief trainer to teach me deadlift last time -- he took me to the lower back machine instead. I've never seen anyone does deadlift, bend over rows or squats(very seldom) in Leisure Mall. Lots of people doing bench press and isolation stuff though.

Oh, I overheard the trainers that you lean you shoulders on the bar when squatting on the smith machine, not under the bar.

Woah, FF the curve manyak jauh oh, +-20km. I'll use the smith machine in the mean time, then once a week, I'll drop by the public gym in bandar tun razak to do the real squats.

Eh JIB, maybe we can meet up after I'm done with my flu and workout together in Leisure Mall. Lets go pester FF leisure mall to get a proper squat rack. They have too many machine even in the free weights section.

And a whole list of other certifications too!
I wonder... are they aware of the various workout programmes out there for different goals? Some people just want to increases fitness level, some to loss weight, some to increase strength, some to bodybuilding...
Or is it that FF has an in-house policy that does not allow them to prescribe other programmes like 5x5 or Max OT?
Oh... that's the front squat.
What I meant was the FF trainers coaches others to lean the back of the shoulders towards the bar on the smith machine -- the feet is about 10-20cm in front of the bar.

I've always had this question to ask. Why men want tetek besau?
