Hi, I'm Aylin. Are you my personal trainer? Great. Today is my first workout, so please be kind.

Okay, ten squats, no problem. Now I take these two dumbbells? Wait, they're really heavy. Are you sure they're the small ones? And ten push-ups? Dan, I can do three. Maybe two. Two and a half.

Look at me, I'm so sweaty. My face is red and my legs are shaking like jelly. Same time next week? Of course. But please bring a towel, a bottle of water and a chair. Or an ambulance. No, I'm joking. I think.

Guess what? My new smartwatch buzzed at me this morning: "Personal best!" I ran five kilometres in thirty minutes. Mum won't believe it.

I did a bit of cardio before work, and I even walked to the office. The watch says I burn calories when I'm sitting at my desk too. That's the best news this year. I'm going to sit very hard today.

Tomorrow is a rest day, because my legs need it. The watch just buzzed again. It says, "Time to stand up." It never stops! Fine. I'll stand up. And then I'll get a biscuit.

Okay, Emre, one more rep. Good! Don't push yourself too hard, though. I don't want you to pull a muscle on your first day.

You said, "No pain, no gain." That's an old gym joke, not a rule. Pain is your body saying stop. Come on, put the bar down. Slowly. Slowly! There. You did eight reps, and Dad can only do five.

Right, you should rest up tonight. Eat something and sleep. Mum made your favourite, so dinner is at seven. Tomorrow you won't be able to lift your arms to eat. Don't worry, big man. I'll cut your chicken for you.

Everybody in this gym wants to lose weight. I want to gain weight! I know, I know. I'm very thin, and my mates call me "the stick".

So this year, I want to get in shape and build muscle. I go four times a week, and I have a protein shake after every session. It tastes like chalk with a banana, but I drink it.

It's already the fourth week, and my trainers still look new. Will I keep up the plan until March? I hope so. Mum says if I keep going, she'll buy me bigger shirts. That's a fine reason to carry on.
