So if you come with me, we'll go upstairs and I'll show you around and perhaps we can try a few of the machines. Oh, no, not today. I mean, yeah, it's great.

How are you today, as well? I'm good. How are you, Philip? I'm very well. Thank you. I'm feeling very motivated to get fit, to get lean. I'm motivated to lose my spirit tire. Mi flotador. Yes. Now that the summer is over, I don't need it anymore. Yeah. So, we hope you found that little conversation, that little dialogue at the beginning of this podcast useful. Hopefully, we can inspire you if you haven't already joined a gym, to join a gym and to get in shape, because it's very important. If you're not healthy and fit, then you can't really enjoy life to the full. So, that's right. You need to suffer a little bit in order to enjoy the pleasures of life. That's absolutely right. And so, in this episode, we're going to talk a little bit about our experiences in the gym, because we joined a gym. When did we join the gym? Eight months ago, maybe. Yeah. So, we joined the gym about eight months ago. And for the first time, I mean, I've joined gyms before, but I've never really been very consistent. I've been a typical person who. Lies down. Signs up. Yeah. You sign up to the gym and never go. But actually, this time, I've been pretty consistent and you've been consistent as well, haven't you? Yeah. Many people usually sign up on the first of January, don't they? Yes. You usually have discounts, so there is no matriculara, no registration fee. Registration fee, yeah. So then they take the super offer and they say, "Yes, I'm going to come every Monday and every week, three times a week." And then, after two weeks, that's it. Yeah. The motivation wavers and they end up not going. But. So, what is your secret to be so constant then? To be so consistent. Consistent. I don't know, really. I think it's because we had a bit of a lifestyle changed, didn't we? We moved to a new city. I think also a lot of people are quite health conscious in Barcelona. People spend time on the beach without their clothes on. So, you've got to be in shape if you live in Barcelona. You have to show your body around four months a year. Summer is quite long here. And aside from that, I think I was getting a little bit out of shape, but I was a little bit inactive. I needed to do a bit more exercise, regular exercise. Too much laptop. When you are working on your laptop, maybe you are editing videos for a long time. And then it makes you really tired and it's difficult to leave the house and get active. But for me, it's really good if I have someone that I can be motivated to go with. For example, if I go running, if I go with a friend of mine, then I cannot let my friend down or if we say, "Okay, we're going to run for this amount of time." Then I cannot fail. But if I go on my own, it's so easy to give up. So, it's good if you can find a group of people, maybe who go running around your area or if you go to the gym, but you go to the classes, maybe you get into the rhythm or you make some friends or you like the teacher. Just find any excuse, but you feel so good after you've exercised. Oh, yeah, absolutely. So, how often is it about you go to the gym? I try to go twice a week. Yeah. And what kind of things do you do at the gym? Well, before I used to do the cross-trainer machine, a little bit of running, yeah, the cross-trainer, cross-trainer is La Vithi elliptica. Yeah, the cross-trainer. Yeah, and the running machine. So, I was doing a lot of aerobic exercise. Are you one of these girls that just goes to the gym or cross-trainer and spends like 40 minutes there, but looking at them above them at the same time. Yeah, no. I'm not one of those. Well, maybe I've done it a couple of times, but no, now I go, I do weight lifting. I just go to the machines. Okay. So, I do my arms, my legs, yeah. I do squats for my. My palm. I do sit-ups as well. Yeah. For my abs. Yeah, me, sit-ups. For your abs. I go abdominal. Sit-ups. Yeah, squats are actually, yeah, it's good for your quadriceps, your hamstrings, your calves, your lower back, your abs and even and your, yeah, obviously your buttocks as well. Buttocks? Yeah. Squats are a really effective exercise. In fact, I think they're one of the best exercises you can do. So, how do you do a squat for for those listeners who don't know what it means? Well, there are two ways you can do it. You can do it on a squat machine, which is pretty easy. You just sit down on this machine and then select the weight that you want and then you push your legs away from your body and it's a good exercise because you're using a lot of muscles in one movement. So, yeah, squats are very good. The other way you can do it is with the free weights with a barbell loaded with. Yeah, loaded with weights and then you just sort of squat down, you bend your knees and then. Like if you were going to pick up something from the floor but you have a big dumbbell in your hands. A barbell, yeah. A barbell. Oh, you can do it with dumbbells as well. I will. Dumbels are the little ones. Dumbels you can hold in one hand and the barbell is the long bar that you put your weight on the end. So, yeah, you do squats, You do your arms, you do your legs, you do cross training. Yo hago yoga, y también. ¿¿Dónde está el treadmill? ¿Qué es el treadmill? El treadmill? ¿No sabes? No. El treadmill es el caro de la máquina. Ah, vale, el caro de treadmill.

Porque ellos se han visto en la mera de ellos, todo el tiempo, ¿no? ¿No? Cuando se han estado listando las cosas, se han visto en sus músels. Yo me fui a la intimidación cuando me fue a la freeway de la área, porque yo era como la más grande, la "puniest, la más grande". Pero. Ahora, yo me voy a hacer lo que estoy haciendo, y me intento ignorar a todos. Pero es no siempre fácil, cuando te hagas todas las cosas, como. ¡Ahhh! Y cosas como eso.
