I went to Palms Country Club earlier today, even though I usually go at night. I was hoping to catch my former trainer, Titus. He was the one who first gave me my physical assessment and did my measurements for body fat percentage. When I got there, it was the same girl trainer I've been seeing every time I went there. I remember asking her once about Titus' schedule and she said that he has the morning shift from 6am-2pm. He was probably working elsewhere in the afternoon or something. That's Titus there on the left.
I actually came in early to try to catch him so that he could do my measurements again. I wanted to see my progress or my deterioration through the years. When I found out that he was no longer there, I kinda felt sad not being able to talk to him in over 2 years already and now, I probably never will again. I actually remember him telling me, "Anong ginawa mo sa sarili mo? Sayang naman pinaghirapan mo..." after I had gained 3% body fat in a span of 3 months (see previous article, Super Size Me).
Apparently, Titus and Ryan left together. Perhaps to work elsewhere or go abroad. They've actually mentioned it before. It's unfortunate because of all the trainers at Palms, they were the ones who were friendly and who actually seemed to know what they were doing. (Left to Right: Titus, Erick, Ryan, myself, Winston). All four of them are no longer with Palms Country Club.
Anyway, I did end up getting my measurements again and here they are...
