Torn Between Two Trainers
Yes, it has happened to me. I'm stuck between the fabulous Jayme, who works me hard, makes me sweat and gives me the attention that I'm seeking in the gym. And Jarad, the intense but quiet one who encourages and advises me in to each and every exercise with the pride of a coach sending his team out to battle for the first time.
Ok, so I'm a little melodramatic here. LOL But yes, I am torn between Jayme and Jarad. Now, if you saw both of these young men, you would probably say that being between them isn't such a bad place to be. (hmm, Who said that?!).
Jayme had to take a break for a few weeks due to injuries and recertification. Jarad competently stepped up to the plate and took me under his wing. I learned something new from him each and every time we met.
I kinda like that....the learning part. I should actually be writing all of their tips and wisdom down so when it comes time for me to fly solo (shudders at the thought!), I will have something to guide me.
But I digress.
The point is, I was getting used to Jarad and his softspoken ways, but killer workouts. We were building a repoire with each other. I began to trust him.
Then.....
Jayme calls me Sunday night. "When can I see you next week?"
My heart sank to my toes. "What about Jarad?" I ask...feeling guilty for stepping out on my new trainer, yet excited to be back with Jayme.
"You're my client, Jarad was just there for you temporarily until I could get my issues cleared up." Ahhh, a man who takes charge. Not entirely a bad thing, when I'm willing to let go and let him lead.
He senses my hesitation. "Unless you want to continue with Jarad?"
Oh noooo..... there it is! The "don't you want me anymore?" hurt in his voice.
I panic. What do I say? (Think fast Sherry!)
"No, I want to be back with you" I whisper...almost as if I'm afraid Jarad was listening the conversation. "Who will tell him...you or me?" I ask hesitantly.
"I will let him know that you'll be on my schedule" Jayme says, "See you on Tuesday, be ready to rock!"
And rock we did! Three sets, 10-12 reps, alternating weights, 20 minutes of cardio and a whole lot of sweat.
I wonder if Jarad will take me back. LOL!
Just kidding guys! You both rock in my book and I'm happy to call you my trainers. Jarad, when Jayme leaves me again (he graduates in May), you're my guy...I promise! :)
