So Random

  Before i start ranting,the views expressed here are based on "in my books".Last week at the gym i was met with contradicting episodes.There is this mama who brought her son,guess he is in his early teens.The boy is obese and i appreciate the mom for realizing that she had to do something for her son.They say if you see a thirteen year old who is obese,the mom deserves a slap on the a** but if you see a thirty year old who is obese then (s)he deserves a slap on the a**.
   I give her( the boys mom) a pass because she should have been keen on good health since day one.Now the boy is big she is pushing him on treadmill,wololo!all the best to him.I saw him once hope tis our sessions which aren't coinciding but I pray that he didn't quit because his body need this effing exercise.
  The other scenario which is still disturbing in my mind,this mama walked in with a six year old,yes ready to train,she(the six year old is a frequenter because she know s how to operate the treadmill and the bike on her own.They did the escalator together then the six year old headed for the bike.She hit on the burn fat button (poor bones) for 10mins.That time I was doing the escalator en i watched her as she paddled her bike.I thought of the anorexic conditions that many teen suffer from*i'm slightly over being a teen:-).I was left wondering if this baby grew up and became anorexia,God forbid,wont be the mother be the one to blame.It's good that children should live healthy lives but they should train in children's gym where the equipment have been designed for them
  This reminded me of an episode I watched on Tyra Banks show of how children become obsessed to an extend of hating on their bodies at even below 10years old.I realized why she shed tears while she was talking to them.I hope this mama will realize what is good for her baby before tis too late.
Nuff of this ranting *munches on a crispy cold piece of red apple*
