Volume 1 Beginning of Summer Chapter 63 Theory
After waiting for a while, a woman with short hair and wearing a black sports vest and shorts walked out.
She is not thin and does not have overly obvious muscles. She has smooth lines and an upright posture.
"Sister Nan." She greeted Chen Nan first, and after sitting down, she looked at Jiang You.
"This is my friend," Chen Nan pointed at Jiang You, "He wants to lose weight. I mentioned this to you once before."
"I remember now," Liu Yue introduced himself to Jiang You: "I'm Liu Yue, just call me Xiao Liu," Liu Yue examined Jiang You's figure, "Do you want to lose weight? Do you have any other ideas?"
"Lose weight first. I feel out of breath, chest tightness, and difficulty breathing when I walk recently."
"How much does it weigh now?"
"I weighed 74 kilograms when I had a physical check-up last month, and now I think I weigh more than 80 kilograms."
“I’m not particularly fat.”
Jiang You touched his belly and said, "My limbs seem to be fine, but the fat is all in my belly."
"After you activate the card, you will be given a physical fitness test to test your fat content, lung capacity, heart rate, etc., and then a targeted course will be developed."
“Are there any courses specifically for reducing belly fat?”
"Yes, the Ab Ripper."
"It sounds useful. Please help me get a card like Sister Nan's."
"I will give you lessons for three days that week, and you can practice on your own according to the plan at other times?" Liu Yue asked tentatively.
Jiang You thought about it and said, "Three days, that's fine too. How many classes are there in a course?"
"18 classes, if you want good results, you have to practice regularly. If you want to come, tell me a day in advance."
"Okay, that's it."
Liu Yue asked Jiang You to fill out a form. When she went to the front desk to open the card for him, Chen Nan looked at Jiang You and said, "You don't bargain."
Jiang You lay on the table, "I can't talk anymore, I can't talk anymore."
"What's wrong with you? Are you okay?" Chen Nan asked with concern.
"I was busy with the yard renovation a while ago. I was so nervous that I felt tired as soon as I relaxed," Jiang You looked at Chen Nan, "Did you get Boss Guo's money back?"
"Old Guo, the TV station won't refund the money."
"Why?"
"I heard him say that the TV station told him that the parts he filmed were all broadcast live, and he achieved the purpose of exposure. Now he goes to the management office every day to complain to Cheng Ming. Cheng Ming has no choice but to avoid him."
"Is the satellite TV station so unreasonable?"
"That's right."
Liu Yue came back with the bill and the card, "The card is ready, how do you want to pay?"
Jiang You glanced at the amount and said, "Alipay, please."
"Can you please go to the front desk and scan it? After you pay, the front desk will give you the gym bag and sportswear."
"It's pretty good. I was wondering if I should buy it myself."
After Jiang You stood up, Chen Nan also stood up. She said, "I'm going to do aerobics first. I'm going to run by myself today, and then go to a yoga class."
"Okay, yoga class starts at 3 o'clock."
Chen Nan walked into the fitness area carrying a gym bag.
After Jiang You paid and got his towel and key, Liu Yue took him into the fitness area and introduced : "Inside is the men's locker room. You can take a shower. There are shampoo and shower gel. The number on the key corresponds to the number of the locker."
After Jiang You changed his clothes,
Liu Yue took Jiang You to the physical examination room and motioned him to stand on the physical examination machine.
After the data came out, he was asked to do some more exercises, "Your physical fitness is pretty good."
"When I was in college, I was a member of the badminton club. Look at my calves now, they are all muscle," Jiang You felt the sweat coming out of his pores. "Maybe I am getting older and my metabolism is slow."
“It’s just the fat belly.”
"Yeah, I don't drink much either," Jiang You looked down, "or is it because I eat too many sweets? Milk tea, smoothies, etc?"
"You usually sit all the time?"
"I spend more time sitting because I need to watch the store."
"Let's do fifteen minutes of aerobics first. There's still room on the treadmill."
Jiang You nodded and followed Liu Yue to the treadmill area.
He saw Chen Nan wearing headphones and running attentively. He picked the machine next to Chen Nan and stepped on it. Liu Yue helped him press a few buttons on the treadmill console, set the speed to 6, and pressed the start button. The track started moving from slow to fast.
After Liu Yue left, Chen Nan took off her headphones and asked, "How was it? "
Jiang You thought for a moment and said, "I imagine that I am a hamster now, generating electricity."
Chen Nan laughed and said, "Next time, wear some sports headphones or watch some videos, it won't be so boring."
"That's not so bad." Jiang You looked up at the screen above the treadmill. On the screen, a dish of chopped pepper fish head was being cooked. Hot oil was poured over the steamed fish. There was only the picture but no sound. "I think this gym has some kind of agreement with the square. When I get hungry from working out, I go out for a meal. When I get fat, I work out again. This cycle repeats. Every time I grow some flesh, I get cut off. They all make money. It's a conspiracy. It's definitely a conspiracy."
“This seems to be a program on satellite TV.”
"Let's go eat fish head tonight?"
"Yunyun is waiting for me to come back home and cook."
After running for five or six minutes, Jiang You felt a little out of breath.
An advertisement was inserted into the screen, and a group of girls in white shirts and plaid skirts jumped into the center of the screen from all directions - witness the first gathering of the Little Naughty 24. See you at 2 pm on August 5th, Tangjiang Satellite TV Happy Gathering.
Chen Nan also saw it, "Why is it another girl group?"
"Just following the trend."
"I don't understand. These girls are good at singing and dancing, but compared to those singers and movie stars in the past..."
"It's different," Jiang You explained to Chen Nan, "Before, records were products, and for movie stars, movies and TV series were products. Now, this girl group itself is a product."
"What's the meaning?"
"It's a bit like The Truman Show, but they know they are scripted."
"Is this interesting?"
"It's quite interesting," Jiang You wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand. "They stretch and practice in the dance studio every day. They practice one move thousands of times. It's very hard. You see, I run for ten minutes and I want to die. In daily life, they are just like the kids next door, very friendly and hardworking. Then when they are on the stage, they suddenly become radiant. Watching them grow up, I feel like I have established a connection with them."
"You chase after stars and even come up with theories."
"I'm free, and when I'm free I tend to think about random things," Jiang You spread his legs and stepped on the side of the treadmill. He then took off his glasses and wiped the sweat off his face with a towel. "I'll have to bring a water bottle next time."
Chen Nan took out the water cup she had placed in the treadmill cup holder and handed it to Jiang You, "You can't even run for just a few minutes."
Jiang You unscrewed the bottle cap and drank half a glass of water in big gulps. "We have to proceed step by step."
