EP.5 Welcome to Garam Fitness-2

Welcome to Garam Fitness-2
“You’re a Slime.”
“Pardon?”
She said that to me after checking my InBody to diagnose my physical condition and staring at the results for a long time.
As I stared at her with a dumbfounded expression, she hurriedly added an explanation.
“Ah, what I mean by Slime is… well, you know games? Like, the monsters that appear in those games, the ones that look like this.”
“I know what a Slime is.”
I thought she was going to apologize for calling me a Slime, but I couldn’t help but chuckle at the fact that she thought I wouldn’t know what a Slime was and was explaining it to me.
At my voice, which was laced with disbelief, Garam made a ‘huh’ sound and stared at me.
What’s this? Does she think she’s offended the Boss and is scared?
I’m not an authoritarian person.
“Ah, I see. I’m sorry. I was just a little surprised because it was so unexpected.”
“Yes, I suppose you could be.”
Garam showed me the chart again and recited my physical condition.
“I’m a little sorry to say this, but… you’re basically a Slime made of fat, Boss.”
“But my lower body muscle mass is high, isn’t it?”
“That’s because your legs naturally developed muscles to support the weight.”
“Ah…”
“If you look at this chart of abdominal circumference, this is the normal range, but you can see that you’re way above it, right?”
“I see.”
I didn’t realize it when I looked in the mirror, but my body on the quantified chart was a conscious mass of fat.
“You also have a lot of visceral fat… Do you perhaps drink or smoke?”
“I’m going to quit both.”
“Yes, it’ll be hard, but I think you should.”
It wasn’t actually hard.
I poured all the alcohol in the house down the toilet, and I cut up all the cartons of cigarettes with scissors and threw them in the trash.
I thought I would experience withdrawal symptoms because my body had become dependent on them, but I didn’t feel like smoking at all, perhaps because of the correction during the possession process.
“The long-term goal is obviously…”
“To get healthy.”
That way, I can live a long life and enjoy this wealth and glory for a long time.
When I said the obvious, she clenched her fist and struck a fighting pose.
“Yes! Let’s do our best, Boss!”
“Ah, could you perhaps call me something other than Boss?”
The title of Boss was too uncomfortable, so when I requested a change of address, she covered her mouth with her hand and said.
“Oh, I’m sorry. Then should I call you Landlord?”
“That’s even more burdensome.”
Is she trying to mess with me?
She couldn’t think of a suitable title and rolled her eyes.
I was so frustrated by her appearance that I said with a sigh.
“Just call me Inho. I’m going to the center anyway.”
“Ah, yes, yes. I’ll call you Inho.”
It was supposed to be a simple condition check at the beginning. Why is it so tiring?
I realized that a purely athletic woman isn’t always a good thing.
“Okay! Then let’s look at your basic athletic ability. I won’t push you too hard on the first day.”
“Haa… Haa… Cough… I’ve already run for 30 minutes? At 8 kilometers!”
“Yes! Your body is warmed up now, right? If you don’t warm up your body enough, there’s a risk of injury. So, when you come to the center in the future, please warm up like this first.”
I’m already injured!!!
It hurts as much as when Namgoong Soyeon pierced my torso.
“I’m going to get some water.”
“Yes. The water purifier is at the end over there.”
The water poured into the small paper cup moistened my throat tantalizingly.
I repeatedly scooped up water and caught my breath.
I clearly started this to get healthy, but why do I feel like I’m going to die before that?
When I returned, Garam was pointing to a Barbell on the ground.
“Do you know the squat posture? Would you like to try lifting this once?”
Here it comes.
That’s how the hellish The Big Three Measurements ended.
Garam, who saved my record on her phone, said cheerfully.
“The Big Three Measurements 100!!”
Am I really okay?
“Kuaaaack!!”
After The Big Three Measurements, Inho, who was shocked, was running on the treadmill as a finishing exercise.
Is it his habit to run while screaming like he’s vomiting blood? It doesn’t matter now because no one is here, but it’s a nuisance to the gym.
I have to tell him later in a nice way.
I’m glad that nothing happened, it was funny how nervous I was.
I was worried at first because his impression wasn’t good, but he seems like a nice person.
Even though he’s old, I feel like I can communicate well with him.
Why do I feel like I’m talking to someone my age, not someone older?
I guess it’s because he has a lot of money, so he lives young?
Ah… I’m jealous.
At first, I thought he was someone who was trying to flirt with me under the pretext of rent. I think I misunderstood.
He seems to have a real desire to exercise…
Then, what does he mean by saying that he wants me to be here for a long time?
Should I ask him later when we get closer?
No way, he’s not really interested in me, is he?
Hey, he’s someone who can meet someone better than me, so that’s not going to happen.
Anyway, he said he wouldn’t take the monthly rent for the time being, so I think I can take a breather.
It would be really over if this center closed down too.
It feels like only bad things have happened recently, but I feel like something good is going to happen today.
Alright! Let’s properly repay his kindness!
What should I do first?
First, I need to increase his basic physical strength and range of motion.
I also need to help him get a feel for contraction and relaxation.
Ah! Diet! I need to make a diet plan too.
It’s the most fun to make exercise plans for others.
He must have his own life, so it’ll be hard to reduce it all at once…
For now, should I start with a normal breakfast and lunch and just reduce dinner a little?
Yeah, it’s the most fun to make exercise plans for others.
“Okay! Let’s run for 10 more minutes!”
“Kuaaaaa!!!”
Oh, come on, you can’t scream.
“The ranking is…”
A woman in pajamas chews on her fingernails and stares intently at the computer monitor.
She was looking at a chart that ranked something, and the woman’s eyes were fixed on the top of the chart.
1st place: Jjooyuni (2.1 million Coin)
2nd place: Hana (2.02 million Coin)
.
.
.
.
“I’m in second place?”
In fact, both 1st and 2nd place earned money in a week that is difficult for ordinary office workers to earn, but she had no intention of having a positive attitude.
For her, who had always held first place, being ranked second seemed to be the beginning of her downfall.
“The Vice Chairman can’t even sponsor half of what the Chairman sponsors… Sigh…”
There is only one reason why she is being pushed back like this.
The Chairman, who used to sponsor a large amount of Coin, has stopped sponsoring.
“Do I really have to give it up this time…”
Hana muttered, looking at the ID saved as ‘Sucker’ in KakaoTalk.
