Lauren's grueling workout!

What followed was the most grueling hour of Lauren's life. Janice allowed no room for backtalk or hesitation. When Lauren would try to complain or object, Janice would literally pick her up by the hips (Lauren hated being manhandled!), put her on a machine and turn it on. Lauren was **** to run, bike, lift weight, lunge and swat all in a rapid succession. Meanwhile Janice would correct her posture, push in her stomach or hips without even warning Lauren! Lauren's limbs all burned. She caught a glimpse of her reflection. Her hair was frizzled. She was soaked with sweat, visible on her collar and armpits. Her face was flush and pink. Meanwhile Janice still looked absolutely perfect!

Lauren heard repeated giggle and laughter at her obvious struggles. People were blatantly staring. She felt so on display, not in the good way! By the end of the hour, Lauren hated Janice with a burning passion.

"That's it... no more..." Lauren panted, hands on her knees as she struggled to catch her breath.

"Oh, come on!" Janice said, putting a hand on Lauren's shoulder. "That was barely a warm up! You're doing great, just a few more reps...."

Ignoring Lauren's distress, Janice led her to the next exercise machine...
