Gym review at Alor Setar = Triple 1 Fitness

Ini adalah review pertama saya ttg gym-gym yg berada di sekitar Alor Setar.So, review gym saya yg pertama ialah gym Triple 1 Fitness.Gym ni terletak di Tandop, Alor Setar (dekat tmpt mkn restoran cina besaq,ada di tingkat 2 bgnan tersebut) .Ni review yg simple shja.Tmpt gym ni agak luas berbanding gym2 yg lain. Barang2 di gym ni yg basic semua ada mcm bench press,incline bench press,cardio machine (cycle dan running) , decline bench dan mcm2 lg.Basically, semua alat basic utk body building tu ada.Dumbell mmg byk,merata ada.Tmpt ni jugak ada squat rack, so sesuai bg org yg suka squat workout sbb bleh buat squat dlm squat rack, tak perlu ke smith machine.Tempat ini juga ada plate 1.25kg utk olympic bar.Agak nice sbb x byk gym ada plate 1.25kg (dpt jumpa 1 set sja 1.25kg,tak tahu ada lagi ke tak selain tu).Menjadikan ia tempat sesuai utk org train strength sbb kadang2 nk naik 5kg setiap kali nk progress agak sukar,so ada alternatif 2.5kg increment.Ada kawasan karpet tebal,so nk deadlift berat2 tak ada masalah.Kekurangan tmpt ni maybe kekemasan sbb plate dia byk berterabur.So pandai2 cari plate yg nk diguna.Lagii satu, harga walk in plak utk student RM6 dan bukan student RM7 (beza RM1 ja pun) dan utk membership lupa nk tnya.Last skali,klau takut anjing,berhati-hati ke gym ni sbb kawasan tu anjing byk siot.Bg saya,berbaloi bayar RM6 (lebih kurang harga standard kawasan Alor Setar) sbb kawasan dia ok dan kelengkapan ia pun ok jugak.

Here's some of the picture of gym :

X tau kenapa,tp mmg suka pulldown cabel ni sbb smooth ja guna

The power of social website can do.

Lately many of my friends start travelling around the nation, whether with their family or friends.There were some that went oversea and all of them sharing their pictures in instagram.Well,to shorten it up I felt jealousy and pathetic at the same time.
·´¯`(>▂<)´¯`·. Now I understood the power social site can do especially instagram.I know that you can't tell them not to upload picture of their vacation, it's just that now I kinda understood what Mufti Menk said in his Jealousy Evil Eye speech (҂⌣̀_⌣́).I'm always "bersangka baik" like those people have saved up a lot of their money during their study that they can used it to travel in their vacation time, you know releasing some stress.

They said travelling is one of the best experience you can get in life.Well,if travelling was free, you won't be seeing me any more.I'm not mad or anything towards my friends that have travel everywhere.Maybe it's not my time yet \(@ ̄∇ ̄@)/.
Who knows, I might be able to work abroad or get a good job in Malaysia and then I can afford to travel on my own.There will be my time to travel, it's just not right now. (〜^∇^)〜 (〜^∇^)〜



HOW ALL THE GAINS SEEKING BEGAN ᕙ(▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿ ̿) ᕗ

I began going to the gym around a month after my final SPM paper finished.I always wanted to go to the gym because I really do want to become stronger and leaner (mostly stronger) but I don't have any experience going to the gym.


I was not this skinny though, a little fatter.

I imagined the gym was filled with strong huge guys and I was kinda afraid at first.Besides, I knew if I go to the gym I better start searching and gathering knowledge about workout and stuff so that I don't waste my time and money at the gym.

I don't remember the exact date but it was a reunion with all my friends from the middle school.It was my best friend, Shah Rezza that invite me to go to the gym after he showed me his "achievement" in the gym (a big arm,a workout and maybe due to his "marching band" activity too).So I was like well,why not? I got nothing to lose.

So the next day, I went to the gym with my sport outfit and sport shoe, not knowing what will I learned. So I began on doing the bench press.WHO DOES KNOW THE BENCH PRESS?IT'S LIKE THE MAIN WORKOUT FOR EVERY MAN, EVERY SPORTS MOVIE MUST HAVE AT LEAST ONE BENCH PRESS SCENE and because I want to get rid of the chest fat, so what the heck, lets start with that.So I lied down on the bench flat, looking at the empty bar and I was like "Cmon,its an empty bar.How heavy can it be right?".Apparently the bar was FREAKING HEAVY for beginner, I was stuck at the bottom for the first rep.Luckily Poye (Ahmad Fauzan,Shah gym partner) was there for the rescue.After that scene, I realise how weak I was..
・゜゜・(/。\)・゜゜・.

So after the 1st day of doing some random chest and other body part workout.I say goodbye to my friends and went home.The next day was the worst day for every beginner that went to gym for the first time, soreness ( or DOMS) .I was not a very sportsman kind of person I'm not used much to the soreness of a muscle. Easy enough to say, every part of my body was in pain.I could not sleep well, the sore was unreal.It took me weeks to recover.I had to skip gym for a week because I don't think my body can withstand another workout for another weak.

The pain was unreal for beginner.

After all the pain was gone,I'm back on my track again to go the gym.I'm not gonna let the soreness of muscle frighten me to go the gym (besides, I don't have anything else to do and I'm not good at any sport). So that was how I began my gains seeking journey ᕙ། ಠ 益 ಠೃ །ᕗ
