Pre-Tet at my Weightlifting Gym

Submitted by on Thursday, February 25, 2010 – 9:46 amNo Comment |

I know a little late but about three days before Tet, I had my last workout at my gym before the holidays.  I was 20 minutes into my exercises when the gym owner, Mr. Tam, grabbed me to “drink” beer.  I thought he was joking but in the end, he was not.

So in short, my day at the gym went like this:

  1. 5 sets of Leg Press
  2. 5 sets of Leg Press Calf Raises
  3. 5 sets of Leg Extensions
  4. Uncountable drinks of beer and Vietnamese food
  5. Go home and sleep for two hours before my classes

This is Vietnam…:-)
