00:00Every day's a new beginning, every night a start of something brand new ways and brand
00:23new days.
00:24A sweet life of the way.
00:31Papa Paul.
00:33Smile.
00:34Smile.
00:35Smile.
00:36As you can see, we are all dressed and ready to do something fun.
00:53And ready to do some serious fitness stuff because a sweet life is a life that is healthy
00:58and fit.
00:59But with today's hectic pace of life, how do we stay fit?
01:03Lalo na pag wala tayong masyadong time or motivation.
01:07Wilma, may time ka ba at may motivation?
01:10Alam mo pag siya, meron akong motivation ngayon.
01:14Nagpablush.
01:15Totoo nga, seriously, I know you're very busy.
01:21Kanyan kakapayat, does that mean that you work out?
01:24I don't work out, sorry.
01:26Where are your potential flab areas?
01:29Saan ba?
01:30Sa stomach.
01:31Ang laki nga talaga nang tiyako, no?
01:34Pag nakahiga, hindi obvious.
01:36Hindi talaga obvious.
01:37Kanyan kakapayat?
01:38Oo, kasi siyempre nanganak.
01:39Naka stretch marks ka.
01:40Oo, wala naman.
01:41God is good to me.
01:42Pero si Eska, di ba?
01:43Oo, si Sarian.
01:44Wala naman.
01:45Oo.
01:46Oo.
01:47Oo.
01:48Oo.
01:49Oo yan.
01:50Wala kang nothing, no?
01:51Fitness regimen?
01:52Pinanganak ka lang talagang payat?
01:53Pinanganak talaga akong maganda.
01:56No, seriously.
01:57Pumayag ka na.
01:58Hindi ka nag-stretching.
01:59Hindi, wala.
02:00Hindi ako ganun.
02:01Hindi ako help buff na tao.
02:02Hindi tao si Wilma, ganyan lang siya ka-perfect.
02:05Anyway, may solusyon sa concerns natin as exemplified by our friend Connie Fortich,
02:10who went through a rigorous program with blood, sweat, and tears,
02:14all to achieve a sweet life by staying fit.
02:19Is fitness really worth the blood, sweat, and the tears?
02:22We'll find out the life-changing benefits of fitness from Connie Fortich,
02:27a model-turned-marketing executive, and is now a fitness instructor.
02:31When I was pregnant with my baby,
02:34bumabot ako ng 180 pounds.
02:39And then after I gave birth, mga 160, 165.
02:44Nasa bahay lang, aayos.
02:48After work, pagdating sa bahay, matutundog na.
02:51Connie has to meet up with another challenge.
02:54I had to organize events na may involve na fitness,
02:59fitness-related activities kagaya ng mga fun run,
03:03mga indoor Olympics, mga internship Olympics.
03:08Kailangan kong maka-keep up dun sa mga activities na yun.
03:13So, I had to get fit also.
03:17Na-diagnose ako with a mild, very mild heart disease.
03:22Tapos medyo tumaas din yung blood cholesterol ko.
03:27And the doctor also told me to get into cardiovascular exercises.
03:32Basta kung ano-ano yung pinagagawa ko.
03:35Then finally, someone told me that I could make it
03:41as an aerobics instructor.
03:44Connie's decision to have fitness as a full-time career
03:47brought a lot of changes she will never exchange for anything.
03:51Kasi mahirap yung nakakit ka ng hagdan, hinihingal ka kagad.
03:56Tapos, of course, kasi I have a little girl, so I have to keep up with her.
04:00I wanna look young for a very long time.
04:06Here with us on the show, Connie Fortich,
04:08now a fitness instructor from Gold's Gym.
04:16Model-turned-yoga instructor, Raya Mananquil.
04:19Yay!
04:23And the last teen actress and star of Bitoy's funniest video,
04:26Super Twins and Knots Entertainment,
04:28please welcome on the show, Ms. Iwa Moto.
04:30Yay!
04:36At school kayo ay tulad sakin na nagtataka kung bakit nandito si Iwa Moto
04:40kasama ang ating mga fitness instructor.
04:42Fitness instructor din ba si Iwa Moto? Hindi.
04:45Wala ho siyang fitness regimen.
04:47Sa pag-ulik natin, tutulungan natin siya kung paano siya magkaroon
04:50ng sariling fitness regimen.
04:52Stay with us.
04:54Yay!
05:06Okay, before we help Iwa, let's ask first Connie and Raya,
05:09ano ba yung mga fitness regimen nila personally?
05:12Connie.
05:14I really start very early because I'm a personal trainer.
05:18How early is early?
05:19Like, my first client is at 7 a.m.
05:22Okay.
05:23So, since I start at 7 a.m.
05:25and then my last client in the morning finishes at 10.
05:29In between, I...
05:31Bakit lang clients ka noon, from 7 to 10?
05:333.
05:34About 3.
05:352 to 3.
05:36One-on-one?
05:37Yes, it's one-on-one.
05:38That's strength and conditioning.
05:40Okay.
05:41And then, I start my classes usually at 4.30 p.m.
05:46Group exercise.
05:47I teach group exercise.
05:48Okay, what kind of exercise?
05:51I teach indoor cycling, or we call it spinning.
05:54Yeah, okay, spinning.
05:55Yes, and then sculpt.
05:57That's mainly toning and muscular endurance.
06:01And also, sculpt pilates.
06:05So, parang naging job mo na rin talaga yung...
06:08Kina-rear ko sya.
06:09Kina-rear mo sya.
06:10Yes.
06:11And then, in between or after, I do my own workout.
06:16I have my own program.
06:17Ha, hindi ka papagod noon?
06:19No, because you don't really get to join your class the whole time
06:23because you have to cue, you have to teach them proper form,
06:26and you can't really...
06:27So, nabibitin ka, in other words?
06:29Yes, yes.
06:30So, I have to go on the treadmill or the elliptical trainer,
06:35and then I do my weight training.
06:37And how long is that time that you have to yourself,
06:39just working on your own program?
06:41I try to finish it in one hour,
06:46but sometimes, if I want to do an hour's cardio,
06:50it takes me two, two and a half hours for myself.
06:54So, it's different every day?
06:56I actually vary my exercise depending on my strength for that day.
07:04Like if I have, like on Tuesdays, I have back-to-back classes in the evening.
07:11I do light exercises during the day.
07:14But since on Wednesdays, it's very light, it's just indoor cycling and sculpt,
07:19I do my leg workout because legs is very tiring.
07:24Okay, we'll find out more about that later on.
07:26But Raya, what's your regimen?
07:29Well, the same thing.
07:31If I'm not teaching in the morning...
07:33You're teaching also?
07:34I teach, exactly.
07:35I teach private classes for yoga.
07:38I usually go to my students' homes or sometimes I do corporate yoga.
07:42I go to their offices and we do yoga in a conference room.
07:45And I do that about two to three times.
07:47That's before they start their work for the day?
07:49Usually for corporate yoga, it's after work.
07:53So usually I teach about two to three classes a day.
07:56And in between that, if I teach in the morning,
07:59then I'll do my self-practice of my own yoga in the afternoon.
08:02And if I teach in the afternoon, then I'll do it in the morning.
08:05And aside from that, I like to power walk a lot.
08:09I have a dog and I walk her around the park.
08:12I just do a lot of walking.
08:14Do you guys watch what you eat?
08:16Oh yes, definitely.
08:18Okay, E was laughing. Why?
08:22Because you don't watch what you eat?
08:24I'm a glutton.
08:25You're a glutton and you don't have a fitness regimen?
08:28Yep.
08:29What do you advise, Ewa?
08:32There's nothing wrong about eating a lot of food,
08:34but for me, it's eating the right kind of food.
08:37And to a certain extent, you do have to do a little bit of food portioning.
08:40You just have to eat healthier versions of what you normally love.
08:44If you like eating, let's say, french fries, eat the baked version of that.
08:48If you like eating sandwiches, use whole wheat bread.
08:52And of course, when it comes to losing weight,
08:54for me, it's always 50% exercise, 50% food.
08:5750% exercise.
08:59A calorie is a calorie.
09:01You can't just lose it by diet alone.
09:03You will lose it, but if you add that with exercise,
09:06then you're really on a roll.
09:08But we're faced with Ewa's schedule here.
09:10And how will she exercise?
09:11How can she squeeze that in?
09:13Ewa, explain your schedule.
09:16On Sundays, I have SOP.
09:19And sometimes, I have guestings or mall shows in the afternoon.
09:25And on Mondays,
09:29It says they're out of program activities.
09:32Yeah, like guestings for other shows, taping.
09:36And on Tuesdays, Super Twins taping.
09:39And how long does that take?
09:42Sometimes, it's short.
09:45Sometimes, it really takes 24 hours.
09:48Because it's an action.
09:51It's bloody.
09:52Yes.
09:53Next is taping for BTOYS.
09:54BTOYS, Wednesday.
09:55That's when I rest the most.
09:57Because BTOYS, the taping is short.
10:00And there's a lot of waiting time in between, maybe?
10:03No, because I'm more on spills.
10:06Okay.
10:07And for NUTS Entertainment,
10:11My morning is a bit vacant.
10:13But I spend time with my family in the morning.
10:16And at night, I have NUTS taping.
10:19And on Fridays, you don't sleep again.
10:22Yes.
10:23And on Saturdays, I have SOP rehearsals,
10:26and a mall show.
10:27So, I also have TV guestings.
10:30You're not busy, right?
10:33How can she squeeze that in?
10:36For me, personally,
10:38a lot of people say,
10:40I don't have time.
10:41But there is a huge difference between
10:43having time and making time.
10:45Okay.
10:46For working out,
10:47you really have to have that motivation.
10:49You make time for what you choose to have in your life.
10:51Exactly.
10:52Some people have to have that inspiration
10:55or that motivation to work out.
10:58Some people, they dread to work out.
11:00And they have to have a good reason to work out.
11:03If she literally doesn't have any time,
11:06she should...
11:07I can see a flight of stairs over there.
11:09If she's not taping,
11:10she can just go up and down the stairs.
11:12She could squeeze in a little bit of crunches.
11:18Try to do at least a little bit every day.
11:20A little bit every day.
11:22For me, it's more of the consistency
11:24than having just one good workout per week.
11:27I'd rather have small, short workouts every day.
11:31I think that's key.
11:32What about you, Connie?
11:33What can you advise Iwa?
11:35What's the one exercise that you think she can do
11:37given her busy schedule?
11:39She can probably do a little walking in the morning.
11:43Walking in the morning or anytime she has to.
11:47In the set.
11:48Every time she has free time.
11:50In the set, she can do that.
11:52And then like Raya said,
11:53she can do crunches.
11:54There are floor exercises like yoga.
11:57Iwa, can you do what they're asking you to do?
12:01Yes.
12:02For example, when I'm shooting,
12:05I'm always hyper when I'm in the set.
12:08So when I get home,
12:10all my energy is gone.
12:12I just sleep.
12:13But in the set, I walk around,
12:15then I jump around.
12:17So the energy that you use there,
12:20that's what you use for your exercise regimen.
12:24Exactly.
12:25I think for a lot of people,
12:26they don't want to make working out such a task.
12:30It has to be fun.
12:31It has to be fun.
12:32I mean, dancing is a great workout.
12:35I love dancing.
12:36See?
12:37You can put your iPad down and dance.
12:40Every Saturday, when I have an SOP,
12:43I rehearse for 2-3 hours.
12:45But once a week is not enough, right?
12:47It really has to be more than...
12:49But I always dance at home.
12:52My mom and my friends.
12:54I have a sister.
12:56But how long do you dance?
12:57When you say you dance,
12:58maybe just 3 minutes?
12:59No.
13:00Maybe 1 hour.
13:02Continuously?
13:03Yes.
13:04So you sweat a lot?
13:05Yes.
13:06But that's good.
13:07I love dancing.
13:08Dancing.
13:09But given what they said,
13:11can you do this?
13:13Yes, I can.
13:15Because when I start something,
13:17I always finish it.
13:19And when will you start this?
13:21As soon as I get home.
13:23Huh?
13:24As soon as you get home?
13:25Yeah.
13:26That's your commitment?
13:27That's a promise, right?
13:28Yes.
13:29On National TV?
13:30Yes.
13:31And to encourage Iwa to do just that,
13:34Sweet Life is giving Iwa a year free membership
13:37from City Lifestyle.
13:38You really don't have a reason.
13:42You have no reason not to stay here.
13:45I hope I get to use this.
13:47I hope so.
13:48I'll be able to go to City Lifestyle.
13:50Anyway, we'll pause for a break.
13:52But when we come back,
13:53we will tackle the issue of
13:55how to be beautiful in the gym.
13:57We will help you achieve that when we return.
14:16Of course, I'm here with Mr. Jason Joplit,
14:20head office personnel of Nike.
14:22Hi, ma'am.
14:23Hi, sir.
14:24I have a friend who went to the gym
14:26and of course, he's still fat.
14:28He's a beginner.
14:29So when he went to the gym,
14:30he saw the women in the gym
14:31who were wearing trims.
14:32So he got insecure
14:33because his outfit was wrong.
14:35So what can you give him?
14:38Nike advised that we're going to wear the...
14:42If he's fat,
14:43we can wear the printed shirt
14:47and the dark colors.
14:49Then we can wear Nike Offers.
14:52We have a new Nike training shirt.
14:54It's a typical shirt.
14:56So it's designed for training.
14:58Of course, sir.
14:59When you're working out,
15:00shoes are important, right?
15:01I mean, what can you recommend?
15:04For shoes?
15:05Yeah.
15:06They can use our new one.
15:09This Nike...
15:10Sorry.
15:11Nike Shaxs Q.
15:12Shaxs Q.
15:13This one.
15:14So this design is for...
15:17Sorry.
15:18This one.
15:19You don't know?
15:20This one.
15:21This one?
15:22Yeah, this one.
15:23This one is designed for...
15:24The upper is leather.
15:26So it's better for training.
15:29It's soft.
15:30And it has extra pucks for cushioning.
15:33I see.
15:34Sir, what's this one?
15:36It has spandex.
15:38What is this?
15:39It's spandex.
15:40Is this also for the gym?
15:41Yes.
15:42The design is dry fit.
15:43One Nike technology
15:44that can help you...
15:48For example,
15:49if you sweat,
15:50you can use this.
15:51Is it a quick absorbent?
15:52Yeah.
15:53It's expensive.
15:54There's something like that.
15:55Here, sir.
15:56This one is for you.
15:57It's also like this.
15:58It's also dry fit.
15:59It's almost the same as the Nike
16:00that they release for training.
16:02It's dry fit.
16:03It can remove our sweat.
16:05There.
16:06Since you have a lot of dry fit
16:07that you're giving me,
16:09Ditche, what do you have there?
16:11I want to ask our guests,
16:13how important is the right outfit?
16:15Does it help in making you feel confident?
16:17I'm sure, right?
16:18Yes, especially for me
16:20because I have to get the attention
16:23of my students.
16:24Yeah, when you look good,
16:25you feel good.
16:26Yeah, so I make it a point
16:27that I wear not only comfortable
16:29but very nice,
16:31very nice clothing.
16:32Share with us what you're wearing now.
16:34I suppose that's what you wear when you...
16:36I actually really have one of this.
16:39Okay.
16:40It's the same as what the mannequin's wearing.
16:42Yeah.
16:43Yes.
16:44I like it because it's dry fit.
16:47It's dry fit.
16:48It wicks off sweat.
16:49Okay, for the benefit of the viewers
16:51who don't know what dry fit is,
16:52what is dry fit?
16:53It wicks away sweat.
16:54Okay.
16:55So it easily dries up.
16:56You don't stay damp.
16:57No, you don't.
16:58No, you don't.
16:59And then...
17:00When you sweat, the sweat goes out.
17:01So it keeps you comfortable the whole time
17:03even while you're exercising.
17:05And because it's loose
17:07and it's stretchable,
17:09I like wearing it
17:11for my cardio kickboxing classes
17:13especially during the kicks,
17:14during the...
17:15And then because of the design,
17:16the print for my boot camp class,
17:18it fits.
17:19But there really has to be
17:20some sort of stretch, right?
17:22Yes, yes.
17:23For comfortability
17:24and for you to be able to move freely.
17:26And flexibility.
17:27Raya, tell us about your outfit.
17:29You're also wearing Nike.
17:31Yeah.
17:32Well, for yoga,
17:33you really want to wear something
17:34that's not...
17:35Close to the body.
17:36Exactly.
17:37You don't want to wear something
17:38that's too baggy
17:39especially when you...
17:40You know, sometimes you do inversions
17:42or you put your head over your leg.
17:44Sometimes baggy clothes,
17:45you know, they'll go everywhere.
17:47But if you're wearing, you know,
17:49fairly close to the body
17:51but still stretchy and comfortable,
17:53then that's really the key.
17:54You have to feel good
17:55and be comfortable
17:56when you're working out.
17:57Otherwise, you'll be too self-conscious
17:59especially if you're in a gym environment
18:01and you're surrounded by strangers
18:02that you don't know.
18:03Okay.
18:04You want to be as comfortable
18:05and as confident as you can be.
18:07Connie, you were saying
18:08that you do kickboxing.
18:09Can you give us a sample?
18:12Well, I...
18:13Seriously?
18:14Yeah.
18:15The audience is asking for a sample.
18:16Seriously?
18:17Yeah.
18:18Oh, my gosh.
18:23Don't be shy.
18:24Don't be shy.
18:27I really need another stretch.
18:32When will you be able to do
18:34that high a kick?
18:36It took me a lot of time
18:37to train for it.
18:39I trained for kickboxing,
18:40freestyle kickboxing
18:42and Muay Thai
18:43so that I could perfect my kicks.
18:45I had a trainer.
18:46And I also do boxing
18:48for my punches, of course.
18:50Ewa, what's your outfit?
18:52Is that what you normally wear
18:53when you're exercising?
18:57Actually,
18:59this is what I usually wear
19:00when I'm doing dance rehearsals.
19:02Ah, okay.
19:04And your outfit is by?
19:06BOM.
19:07Okay.
19:08Yes.
19:09At this point in the show,
19:10we have two girls
19:11from the studio audience.
19:12We have Ekru and Samantha.
19:19Okay.
19:20The two of them
19:22will help our guests
19:24on the right outfit to wear
19:26when they're working out.
19:27When we return,
19:28we will do just that.
19:41We are back with Ekru and Samantha
19:43who are now wearing Nike
19:46with the help of Connie and Raya.
19:48What was your observation earlier?
19:50I noticed that
19:51Connie was the one who was happy, right?
19:53Connie.
19:54Because Connie's personality
19:55is a bit sporty.
19:57You know,
19:58your grandma is sporty.
19:59And Raya is some kind of a model
20:01with a bolero.
20:02Model, model.
20:04Model, model.
20:06Let's ask Connie
20:08Let's ask Connie
20:10Why did you choose this for Samantha?
20:13Wilma was right.
20:14It's something I would want to wear.
20:16It's an expression really
20:17of your personality.
20:18Yes.
20:19And of course, her body
20:20because she's voluptuous.
20:22Very.
20:23Like you, voluptuous.
20:24I am.
20:25Yeah, you are.
20:26Thanks.
20:27And she has
20:28she's quite heavy here.
20:30Okay.
20:31So, I opted for her to wear
20:32a little bit loose.
20:33Why if it's heavy,
20:34is it better to wear tight?
20:36She can wear tight, maybe.
20:39But she's already wearing the capri.
20:42So,
20:43So that others can see.
20:44But she looks good in this.
20:46But it suits her.
20:47It suits her.
20:48She doesn't go to the gym.
20:50It suits her.
20:51The shape of her body is nice.
20:52Yes.
20:53The shape of her body is nice.
20:54In all the right places.
20:56Yes.
20:57Especially here,
20:58which I don't have.
20:59So,
21:00What about Ekru?
21:02Is that really your name?
21:03Ekru?
21:04Yes.
21:05Ah, okay.
21:06Why did you choose that for her?
21:07Well, I mean,
21:08she's got a slim figure, so
21:09Like you.
21:10Well,
21:11so, you know,
21:12she could wear anything.
21:13I mean,
21:14capris are great for people who,
21:15you know,
21:16who don't need to hide anything
21:17in their thigh area.
21:18Yeah.
21:19And I love that little
21:20The bolero.
21:21The bolero is really cute.
21:22Adorable.
21:23So, she can take that out
21:24when she goes to the gym.
21:25But going to the gym, you know,
21:26she can just wear it on
21:27to keep her, you know,
21:28a little more stylish
21:29on the way to the gym.
21:30Yeah, or more covered.
21:31Exactly.
21:32Thank you, Ekru and Samantha
21:33for being with us.
21:35Now, let's talk about
21:36finding the right
21:37fitness routine for you.

21:56Actually,
21:57if you're gonna choose
21:58the right fitness activity
21:59or any kind of sport,
22:00you have to consider
22:01three points.
22:02Okay.
22:03First,
22:04is you have to think
22:05for the financial stability
22:06or financial status.
22:07Why?
22:08Is it really expensive
22:09to have a fitness regimen?
22:10Yes.
22:11Yes, of course.
22:12For example,
22:13in a sport like
22:14golf,
22:15yeah,
22:16you have to
22:17spend much of the
22:18For the equipment.

22:26and also you have to
22:27pay for the caddy, right?
22:28So,
22:29in short,
22:30you have to think
22:31for the,
22:32for your income.

26:52Actually you
26:53probably need
26:54more iron,
26:55so you know if
26:56you take beetroot
26:57or mushrooms,
26:58those are,
26:59well I mean
27:00because I'm a
27:01vegetarian so
27:02those are my
27:03vegetarian sources
27:04of iron.
27:05Yes.
27:06For meat-eaters
27:07they can probably
27:08get iron from
27:09meat as well.
27:10I know of
27:11people who
27:12they go to
27:14the gym.
27:15Before they
27:16realized they
27:17were in love
27:18with their
27:19instructor.
27:20Well, I can say in general that it really does happen.
27:25Bah!
27:26Did it happen to you?
27:27There's a big but.
27:28Before you answer that, we will pause for a break.
27:30When we come back, we will also talk about creative ways to lose weight.
27:47If you're serious about hitting the gym, you have to be serious about finding the right
27:53trainer.
27:54First and foremost, a trainer would check on the quality of your health before starting
27:58the program.
27:59Meet Paolo, owner and instructor of Paolo's Boot Camp.
28:03In Paolo's Boot Camp, it basically is a circuit type of training.
28:08This is Paolo's student, Renee.
28:10I've been training with him since 2004.
28:15She may not have too much problems on her weight, but of a different kind.
28:19I used to have a slouch posture.
28:21First of all, she needs clearance just in case she's not sure about her health.
28:26She needs clearance with the doctor that she's fit to exercise.
28:30And second, about the injuries and their activities, daily activities, and then sickness, if there's
28:37any.
28:38For Renee, when we started, she didn't have a lot of background in terms of fitness.
28:44So, I gave her first basic exercises to determine her level.
28:51And as she progressed, we gave her intermediate to advanced, and then from there, for different
28:56types of exercises.
28:57So, we have pilates, we have weight training, we have the circuit program.
29:00With the basic training, we started on the lower body.
29:03So, we do a lot of stretches there for the hamstrings, for the muscles here, the back
29:08of the thighs.
29:09Sa umpisa, medyo, of course, it's different.
29:12So, she had a hard time doing some of the exercises.
29:15Medyo difficult din.
29:17Like, in my case nga, since I had previous back problem.
29:20Kasi the pilates, it concentrated on back strengthening.
29:25So, yung naging training ko was, yun, medyo matagal din eh.
29:29So, it was mahirap.
29:31So, from there, I was able to make a program suitable for her needs.
29:35So, and then, as she gets better, we increase the intensity or the weight.
29:40Aside from the benefits of a healthy and fit body, Rene now holds her posture correctly
29:46as Paolo taught him.
29:48Welcome.
29:49It's now time to call in Mr. Johannes Magbitang, Slimmers World Great Bodies 2006 winner.
29:58Where is Johannes?
29:59Hi.
30:00Hi, Johannes.
30:02Hi.
30:03Hi.
30:04Hi, Wilma daw.
30:05Hi.
30:06Okay.
30:07Let's talk about how an instructor can help his client.
30:12Paano niya matutulungan yung kliyente niyo?
30:15How do you motivate them?
30:18Well, the benefit of having a personal trainer is that you can motivate more of your clients,
30:25having the right routine, working out at the right time.
30:30One-on-one talaga.
30:31Yes.
30:32Personal.
30:33One-on-one personal training.
30:35That's the fact of giving suggestions on how to diet properly.
30:41Hindi pa nai-inlove sa nyong mga kliyente niyo, sir?
30:44Hindi naman.
30:45Ako sana yun, nai-inlove na ako sayo, eh.
30:47Hindi pa man din.
30:48Connie and Raya, how do you help your clients?
30:51How do you motivate them?
30:52Kasi we all must admit na there are days na talagang ayaw natin mag-workout,
30:57even with our best intentions, kahit gustuhin man natin, wala.
31:00Tamad lang talaga tayo for the day.
31:02Oo daw, sabi ni Iwa.
31:05For me, because I have a client who has a heart condition,
31:08so I always have to motivate her to tell her that,
31:11you have to do your cardio today, it will do good for your heart,
31:15and then we have to exercise.
31:17Ang simula lang naman siguro yung mahirap, no?
31:19Once they start sweating, it's easier.
31:22Yes, but sometimes there are days, there are bad days,
31:25so you really have to, like me, I am very friendly to my clients,
31:32but friendly in a professional manner.
31:35So, I'm friendly to them in the sense that nakikipagkwentuhan ako sa kanila,
31:42para hindi naman merong daman yung pagod nila.
31:46What about you, Raya? How do you motivate them?
31:49Well, the good thing about yoga is that it really helps you to relax and de-stress.
31:54And, you know, people who work every day, you know, nine to five jobs,
31:58that's what they're looking for.
32:00Iwa, why do I always call you Iya?
32:02Iwa, will a personal trainer help you?
32:05Will having a personal trainer make you want to go to the gym more?
32:08Kulang na po ako ng pagpupush, kasi...
32:12Ano pong makakapupush sa'yo?
32:14Ano po, wala ako, kanyari, mga friends ko nagkahiyaan,
32:17o, gym tayo, sasama ako, pero kung ako lang mag-isa,
32:22ayoko po mag-isa sa gym.
32:24Ayo mo mag-isa?
32:25Opo. Piling ko kasi mapapagod ako,
32:27tapos paano pag nahimatay ako, walang tutulong sa'kin.
32:29Sobra naman ito mag-isa.
32:31Huwag ka mag-alala. Pag nangyari yan, sasambutin kita.
32:35Pero second muna, sir, hindi ako masyadong interesado sa girls,
32:38hindi ako masyadong interesado sa boys.
32:40Sir, e, paano ba makakaiwas yung mga fitness instructor
32:44na may in love sa mga kagaya kung makulat na kliente, for example?
32:48It depends on the ethics naman, yun.
32:50Bawal talaga yun sa gym, diba?
32:51Yes, exactly.
32:52Okay.
32:53It's in the contract.
32:55It's in the contract?
32:56Yes.
32:57Really?
32:58Especially with the gym that you're working at.
33:01Okay lang yun pag kayo yung hindi na in love.
33:03Paano naman pag na-obsess sa'yo yung kliente?
33:06Nangyari na ba yun?
33:08Ay, hindi makasagot.
33:10Atsaka alam mo, kasi diba sinasabi natin sa sir,
33:12Sir Johans is 2006 male winner.
33:15Sir, paano ka naman, paano ako maniniwala
33:18kung hindi ko naman nakikita yung six-pack abs mo?
33:21Can I see?
33:22Sir, test mo naman.
33:23Tayo ko naman, sir.
33:27Sir, pakita mo naman sa akin yung body mo,
33:29nang malaman ko talaga kung totoo yan.
33:31Sir, sige na.
33:32Hindi na ako nakadiet.
33:33Ah, hindi, mukha ko'y lang yan.
33:35Hindi na daw siya nakadiet.
33:37Okay.
33:38Yan ang katawan nang hindi nagdadiet.
33:43Okay, Iwa, when are you really going to start your program?
33:47Kasi po, yung schedule ko po, medyo tight as of now.
33:50Pero kung may time, pupunta talaga ako.
33:52Kasi, gula, kailangan ko rin po kasi magpapayat eh.
33:56Kasi kahit magdiet ako na magdiet,
33:58kung puro diet lang,
34:00tapos yung mga, yung balat,
34:02hindi ko lalo-lao,
34:03ang pangitin.
34:04So, sinabi na sa akin ng mga friends ko na,
34:07kailangan ko rin daw mag-exercise.
34:09That's why nag-sit-ups ako kanina.
34:12Nag-sit-ups daw siya kanina.
34:13Raya, can you show Wilma some poses that she can do?
34:15Or some exercises that she can do?
34:17Poses?
34:18What's your problem area?
34:20I have a big tummy.
34:21Wow.
34:22I'm preggy.
34:23So big, ha?
34:25We'll start with a standing pose,
34:27and then we'll go into,
34:29we do call them poses or postures in yoga.
34:32Okay.
34:33So, um, okay.
34:35So, I want you to stand about,
34:38so maybe you can stand.
34:39I'll hold the mic for you, Raya.
34:41Okay.
34:42Okay, good.
34:43Stand that much apart.
34:45Now, I want you to have your left foot slightly in,
34:48your entire right leg to face out.

35:23Keep that knee straight.
35:24Good.
35:25Now, you'll feel the stretch in your inner thigh.
35:27Yeah.
35:28When you're working your quadriceps,
35:29that's your right thigh.
35:30Uh-huh.
35:31What part of the organ is it benefiting?
35:33Well, it's, this is actually,
35:34the standing poses are really good for the limbs.
35:36Okay, now stand up, stand up.
35:39How long are you supposed to do that pose?
35:41How long are you supposed to hold it?
35:42Well, you can hold it for up to a minute,
35:43but beginners usually will hold it for a couple of seconds,
35:46and then you usually do the left side.
35:48So, what you do on the right, you also do on the left.
35:51You have to do both sides.
35:52You have to balance it out.
35:53Turn the right foot in, that entire left leg faces out,

36:46I don't know why I'm like this.
36:48Both your thighs strong.
36:50Now, your back might have a tendency to lift off the floor.
36:54So, you have to make sure your back is flat on the floor.

37:35Thank you, Wilma.
37:36Connie will help Iwa.
37:38Iwa is still laughing.
37:40What we're going to do is actually just stretching.
37:43We do before and after you.
37:46After you do your dance.
37:48Bring your arms up.
37:49Inhale up.
37:50Inhale.
37:51As you exhale, you lock your fingers together.
37:54Stretch them up.

37:56Toes and knees pointing forward.
37:58Good.
37:59And you breathe through your stretches, okay?
38:02Inhale and exhale through your mouth this time.
38:05Okay?
38:06Then you release your hands.
38:08Relax.
38:10Fold your right arm.
38:11You will stretch your right tricep.
38:15There you go.
38:16You pull your elbow towards your head.
38:18Good.
38:20Now, of course, we have to balance.
38:22We have to switch sides.
38:23Other side.
38:24Pull the elbow towards the head.
38:27Relax, Ate.
38:28Push your head down.
38:30To the left.
38:31Keep your shoulder down.
38:34What's really your problem area, Iwa?
38:36If there was any back fat.
38:38Yes, you'll get there.
38:39That's our finale.
38:40Oh, that's our finale.
38:41And other side.
38:42Yes.
38:44How important is it to stretch before doing actual exercises?
38:50Yes, you have to stretch so that you limber up.
38:53So that your muscles loosen up.
38:54Are warm.
38:55Yes, they get warm.
38:56Now you step your left foot back.
38:59Heel down.
39:02Hips and shoulders square.
39:05Now, bend your right knee.
39:07Chest high.
39:08Hold on to your right thigh.
39:09Support.
39:12She's too tense.
39:13Later.
39:16You know, you're already skinny.
39:18Left leg in.
39:19Press your right heel down.
39:20Okay.
39:21Good.
39:22Okay.
39:24So, let's do it.
39:25We will, of course, do the other side.
39:28So that we do the back.
39:32We do the back.
39:33We do the other side, of course.
39:34But now, we'll move on to the lower back.
39:36Why don't you do the other side?
39:37Put your body aside.
39:38Yes.
39:39The one with muscle.
39:40She doesn't have any.
39:42She doesn't have any.
39:46So, this is for the back.
39:47For the back.
39:48Okay.
39:49Here we go.
39:50Hands on your thighs.
39:52Bend your knees.
39:53Bend your knees.
39:54Okay.
39:55You should put your toes on your toes.
39:57Stick your butt out.
39:59And pull your abs in.
40:00Then, you will curl your spine.
40:02Curl the spine.
40:04Looks familiar, guys.
40:06And extend now.
40:08Hold up.
40:09Again.
40:11Okay.
40:12When do you extend your tailbone?
40:16And when do you curl it in?
40:17You curl it in when you curl your spine.
40:20No.
40:21For what exercises?
40:22For most exercises.
40:24Like for weights.
40:26When you squat.
40:28You shouldn't stick your tailbone out.
40:30Or else, you'll hurt your lower back.
40:32So, it has to be tight right here.
40:35Okay.
40:36Hold it right here.
40:38Hold.
40:39And then, you will bring yourself up.
40:41Slowly, one inch at a time.
40:43Then, you will roll your shoulders backward.
40:45Roll them backward.
40:48Then, forward.
40:53Then, you will balance on your left leg.
40:57Remember this.
40:58You will stretch your quadriceps.
41:00Okay, this one.
41:02You always do.
41:04Because you always use your legs for walking.
41:07Right?
41:08And other side.
