Lucien LaCroix: Personal Trainer By Heather Poinsett for: Laura...I had to jump in the shower when I read that description about the black, leather driving glove. Mmmmmmmmm! It's day two of your grand plan to become a better, healthier you. You head off to the gym around 8 at night. You decide to skip the lifecycle and treadmill and then head off towards the other side of the gym. You look at all the weight training equipment, thinking. "Man, the last time I did this it wasn't this complicated. You just went on eight different things and all was right with the world. The club has become empty. You stand there with a dazed look on your face when you hear *that* voice over your left shoulder. "You look as though you are in need of some assistance, my dear." Nunkies is dressed in a black CERK tshirt and a pair of those tight black bicycle shorts. You quickly wipe away the drool and he chortles softly. "It appears that all the personal trainers have left for the evening," he says, with a smile that makes you melt. "Perhaps I could be of some service." You nod and manage to mumble, "It's been a long time since I did weight training." "I see. Perhaps it would be best for me to give you a demonstration before you begin." You grin broadly. "I can think of no better way to learn," you say. Nunkies goes through all 56 of the different machines. You are thankful for the extra-large towel you brought because you certainly need it, watching those powerful thighs and arms move the weights easily and gracefully. You even help out Nunkies by wiping his brow and other sweaty things (hehehe) after every set. Unfortunately he finishes quickly and decides to start you out on the leg press. You go and start out easy. The first two sets are no problem. You feel muscles beginning to ache and you manage to finish up the set. You and Nunkies move on to weights for your arms. This being your favorite, because Nunkies wraps his own arms around yours to show you how to complete your exercises correctly. After 12 separate exercises, you're ready to call it a night. "But, ma petite, we haven't even used the free weights yet." Nunkies acts as your spotter for lifting the weights. Exercising is truly a pleasure when Nunkies has his arms around you. You finish up, all too soon. "That was wonderful," you say, resting on the bench. "but I'll be soooo sore tommorrow and I didn't even have a chance to do some aerobic exercise." Nunkies gently rests his hand on your leg and you feel his cool fingers slid under your shorts. "I know," he says, softly. "You need a massage and a good long workout. Unfortunately the gym is going to close in a few minutes. However, we can continue at my home." You jump in his arms and Nunkies takes you back to his place, for more private training. *whew* I know I'm ready for a shower!
