Muffin Tops and Bingo wings at the Lunchtime exercise club

I have recently joined some more health concious members of my team to exercise at lunchtime.  We (believe it or not)  go to one of the female sleeping rooms in my company office block.  We do between 4 - 6 sets of Squats 45 seconds of squats 15 seconds of break time, 4 sets of the impossibly painful plank, some pushups (usually I try to avoid these) and some other random exercises that our Team JJang (manager) dreams up, usually on the spot.  I usually try to distract people from my rubbish-ness at exercising by injecting my own brand of humour in to the proceedings, such as squatting out of time and humming crayon pop bar bar bar..

Or taking the opportunity to teach them humorous words for the misshaped bodies that we are trying to rid ourselves of...  So far I have managed  to teach them

and Bingo wings

To tackle these problems, Team JJang has started us on a new stretching regime using an elastic stretching rope and on day 3 I can confidently say that..."It hurts like buggery!!!"

Another FUN aspect of working in a Korean Company!

Why haven't I been posting on Seoul Ambition...?

The reason I haven't been posting on Seoul Ambition very much lately is because I have been studying.  For the first time I have really been putting some effort into studying Korean.

I have restarted my Sunday class, studying the Sogang University text books and have started a private 1-2-1 class every Friday where I am studying for the TOPIK exam, which I hope to take in about a years time...
