2. Because if you make the mistake of saying "I can't" you will be punished.
3. And it might look like this...
Personal Trainer: Ok, Frankie, 10 push ups.
Frankie: Ummm, yeah about that... I can't do push ups.
Personal Trainer: Oh NO you didn't say I can't! *gets evil look in his eyes*
Frankie: I mean....I can do push ups, I'd love to do push ups, but the thing is...I just can't--
Personal Trainer: You! Wall! Now!
Frankie: *Squats against a wall*
*Holding weights*
*For 2 minutes*
Frankie's Legs: I-I-I-I-I-I c-c-c-c--c-c-c-c-cant s-s-s-s-s-s-s-stop shakingggggggggg
Frankie: Shut up, legs, and hold it!
Frankie's Legs: This is all your fault, Arms! WTF! How have you never done a push up before?
Frankie's Arms: I work her fingers! She types all the time--she's a writer, she wrote a book.
Frankie's Legs: SO! Writers can do push ups!
Frankie: Guys, shut up!
Frankie's Legs: Writer my butt!
Frankie's Arms: You're legs, you don't even have a butt.
Frankie: I hate all of you.
4. Then it turns out....I can do push ups.
5. 20 in fact.
6. So like I said, you should never say "I can't" to your personal trainer.
7. Or probably ever in life.
8. Because you can probably do anything you put your mind to.
9. And now my Friday Five is inspirational...
10. Also it's the Friday 10.
Have a great weekend!!!
lol aww!! hilarious as ever :D poor you hence i would never get a personal trainer i completely crack under pressure plus if he was super cute it would be hard to concentrate :D
ReplyDeleteIf your body parts start talking to each other when we hang out, I'm going to slowly back away, y'know. Just sayin'.
ReplyDelete:)
Blueicegal, Thank you! I thought I'd crack under the pressure, but its working well:-)
ReplyDeleteSimon, Haha, don't worry, they'll be quiet.
Woohoo, go Frankie! 20 push-ups is a lot. Isn't it exhilarating when you realize you CAN do something that you literally thought you couldn't? Well props to you, I don't think I could do even five. xD

Yay, we're back to more than 5. And the world makes sense again.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I love that, thanks for the reminder. Anything can be accomplished if we put our minds to it. With that thought, I'm off to do tackle my agent's critique...
ReplyDeleteFunny! I've got to get a trainer. I've been hitting the gym and cycling, but I do need to work on my arms, middle, back...let's just say an entire body fix. :0)
ReplyDeleteVery funny! I was just browsing the personal training blogs and stumbled upon yours. You have a great community!
ReplyDeleteBen
LOL I love the payoff on this one! I definitely can't do 20 push-ups though...only about 8 real ones, then I have to do the girly ones.
ReplyDeleteBoy are you funny, BUT ... if you can afford to have someone yell at you to help you get in shape, that is really awesome.
ReplyDeleteI could never make a trainer work because I would invite him/her out for beers to celebrate some kind of nominal achievement and then I would drink a pitcher to myself and get like verbally destroyed, my ego ending up bruised and tattered, hanging shivering from the edge of my frosty pint glass like the fluttering cape of some bested superhero.
Okay not really but I'm just sayin.
Oh this was too funny. And it turned inspirational. You just managed to fit everything in, didn't you? :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe you CAN do 20 heinous beyond belief push ups, but let me tell you, it'd sure be nice if you didn't have to.
ReplyDeletePersonal trainers are awesome. Except for when I hate them. Good luck with that ;)
ReplyDeleteP.S. Mentioned you on my blog today :)
That was great! Now I know what not to say.
ReplyDeleteNIce. I so know what you mean about doing "the wall" as my friends and I call it. Ugh!
ReplyDeleteit would be hard to concentrate
