I work at a climbing gym. I mainly work at the front desk and organize equipment. Although it is a facility for exercise, I mostly just stand around or organize in the storage room, so I rarely actually use my body. My lifestyle is also far from that of an athlete. I’ve gotten into the habit of buying snacks and triangle kimbap at a convenience store after work, watching YouTube, and then going to sleep.

As I neglected self-care like that, I gained 4kg in just one year after getting a job. When I was a teenager, I didn't really need to worry about it, but now I can visibly see fat accumulating on my stomach and thighs. I think I become even more self-conscious because I am constantly being compared to the other members. I’ve decided it’s time to properly take care of my body, so I’m looking into Byeollae Pilates. I heard it’s good for body shape correction and managing one’s constitution, so I was thinking of starting with Byeollae Pilates. However, since it’s an exercise I’ve never done before, I honestly feel a bit hesitant. I also looked into the cost of Byeollae Pilates, but as a young professional just starting out, paying it every month is a bit of a burden.

Aside from Byeollae Pilates, if anyone knows of other good ways to improve my constitution in this situation, please let me know! I would be really grateful if anyone who has experienced gaining weight at a young age could leave an honest comment. I would also appreciate reviews from those who have tried Byeollae Pilates!
