gym part 2

I didn't actually plan a follow up to my previous gym post but I have a lot more to say now. This is partly because I went to an induction session this morning at the gym and bought some gym clothes online just now. Is just now actually grammatically correct? Scratch that, is using actually this often grammatically correct?

Lets start with the induction, it was at 10am, which meant I had to wake up early and ugh. Plus, I went to sleep at 3am. So I get to the gym and I'm told to go to the computer desk upstairs between the two studios and that someone will be with me soon. They were not, it took a while, then a lady started talking to me then she walked to talk to another uniformed guy, who went downstairs. After a while, another uniformed guy came over and started my induction. He asked me a bunch of questions on a form, which would just have been quicker if I was told to fill it in whilst I was waiting. He explained about their 'workout of the month' based around a sport and this month is tennis. He spent way too long of my induction trying, I say trying because I still don't know if I'm doing it right and will therefore never do those exercise especially since I think I look too stupid, to teach me the five or six workout exercises designed for a tennis player. Before that, he quickly showed me a few of the machines and explained how they worked and the type of exercise you can do on it. After, we went downstairs to the resistance machines and I got shown some core exercise, which was so much fun to do whilst being watched intently. And that was it! What? Why? I'm a bit annoyed that they didn't make a program for me, like most gyms do. How am I supposed to know if that machine will work the muscles I want? How do I know what weight/resistance to do? Even the really small, not that great, gym in the leisure centre made a program for me when I joined.

After lunch, I turned on my computer and started looking at all of the JD website tabs I'd opened last night. I spent a good 2 - 3 hours choosing everything I liked, then whittling down the shopping basket to fit my small budget. The only thing that was annoying was that all the sizing was done in extra small, small, medium, large, extra large but the sizing charts didn't show which clothing size number they corresponded to. This made it a little difficult and I'm sure my friend really enjoyed helping me decide. I didn't actually realise how much quality gym clothing cost so I didn't manage to get much stuff and the stuff I got was double my budget so my mum will be quite angry when she gets her statement. But my plan is that I'll try it all on and return a few bits to make up some of the overspending. This isn't really a complaint, but I'm not sure what it actually is. I was looking mostly at Nike stuff and trying to compare pairs of shorts and leggings. All of the product descriptions are too similar so I ended up choosing stuff I liked the look of. Some of the models were standing awkwardly or had disproportionate body parts so it made the clothing look weird which meant that I wasn't sure how it would fit on me and not buy that thing. So maybe they're really great shorts but I'll never know.
