Lesson 24 Key Conversation I feel out of shape!

Frank¹: Hi, honey, what are you doing?

Diana: Hey, you're calling late. Are you still at work?

Frank: Yes, but I'm just leaving. I was thinking of hitting the gym, but I don't have the energy to work out.

Diana: Well, maybe you should skip going to the gym today.

Frank: I'd love to, but I haven't been to the gym in two weeks. I feel really out of shape these days.

Diana: Why don't you just have a quick workout and come home?

Frank: Yeah, good idea. I'll pump some iron² and hit the treadmill³ for a quick run.

Diana: You always get your second wind after you exercise.

Frank: OK, I'll hurry, and we can do something when I get home.

Diana: Sounds great. Have a good workout, and see you soon.
