This is just a journal I've started to log my exercising adventures. I'll be sure to add pics, and stories, to keep myself motivated, and my readers interested.

Je Suis Fatty Gay
Je suis Fatty Gay. That title is part french, part homo-eccentric! Jack (Sean Hayes) From Will & Grace said that when he was complaining his gym found about his fake membership and he hadn't worked out in two days. "I get really big if I don't work out, I swear! My family stores more fat than otters." he sighs, "Je suis Fatty Gay" a pun on the french saying "Je suis Fatigue." Which means I have fatigue, or I am fatigued.
So anyway, I've started this blog because I thought it would be a great way to re-energize my work out life. I know that sounds a lot like re-energize my sex life should go there, but whatev.
Though this is a work out blog, I want it to be fun and interesting for my readers, and I believe that in order to do that, I must try different exercise methods, such as: Pilates, Tae-bo, Carmen Electra's Strip Aerobics, etc. If I did not have this approach I'd basically be logging in my man hours on the tread-mill and I really don't think you'd want to read anything about that! I'll be updating every two weeks, each time either with a new exercise program, or a health tip I've found online, until I can find a new exercise program.
For this weeks rendition of my exercise I decided to try out Zumba. It's supposed to be this fun, hip way to learn latin dances and exercise at the same time. So I got excited thinking that this was going to be fun, and soon I'd be able to dance like a true Dirty Dancing Havannah Nights extra...alas, no such luck. As soon as I popped in the tape I felt a sense of misery as I heard the instructors introduce themselves in a hard-to-understand latin accent. But I thought I could get over that and just enjoy myself. Wrong again.
Each step took about 10 minutes minimum to learn, and there was more than ten steps, so doing the calculations, I'd have to spend a little over an hour just learning basic moves, when I don't really have time for that. OH Stop that! You know that you like to just hop on the treadmill, log your 30 minutes in and be done with it! So I would think a program would be able to do the same. Sure I don't expect learning it to be a complete and total breeze, but I expect to be able to learn it in one session so that next time I am ready to just get right into the exercise they're teaching. (i.e. Carmen Electra Strip Aerobics, which I will review later)
In conclusion for that exercise program, let's just say I'd rather be fat than do that.
hmm...kinda has a nice ring to it...lol. Ok so I guess I have my first catch phrase! If I don't like something, at the end of my review for it, I'll say "I'd rather be fat than do that!" and if I like it I'll say, "I want to do that, to lose this fat." or something along those lines.
Well I hope you've all learned something here today. Look for my next review and update sometime in a month or two. Meanwhile, I guess I can post inspirational stories and/or pictures for your pleasure and entertainment. I have to do something to keep peeps interested!!!
Love you all,
A Fat Gay.

It's important to be healthy, but I think working out is overrated.
When I first saw the title of this post and the URL for this site, I thought it said "Jesus Is Fatty Gay." I had to investigate. :)
