do you have several people telling you what to do? Who do you listen to: your trainer, or your mother?
In this cartoon, it appears that this woman's trainer is telling her to Just Do It (Nike slogan), while her mother is telling her not to overdo it. But what's really going on? She wants to work out, is forcing herself to work harder, but she's holding back just a little. Maybe she doesn't really want to get in shape...or maybe she resents having a trainer at all! Going to the gym can be complicated.
