Leslie: A little, I wish I could do that.
Joanne: You can! With a little practice.
Leslie: Look at him, he's buff.

Leslie: How do they all get in such tiptop shape?

Dialog 2
George and Mikel are working out at a local gym.
George: Hi, Mikel. What's with you? You look angry.
Mikel : No, I just check my weight, I'm getting fatter.
George: Ture, you are getting a really pot belly, aren't you?
Mikel : I'll get you for that comments, George.
George: Just kidding, Mikel. Why don't you come work out with me?
Mikel : ah, I don't know a fit works. Last time, all I saw the gym were bunch of lidos, like me.
George: It works if you keep at it. Come on, let's go!
Mikel : All right. But so help me it's a better work.
George: This feels great. I'm all reved up. I can keep going all night.
Mikel : Not me. I'm too hot and I'm too tired.
George: Exercise has no benefit unless you sweat like a pig.
Mikel : Well, that's not for me.
George: Thanks for coming, it was a real blessed.
Mikel : It wasn't as good as you think.
George: You'll get used to it, Mikel, trust me.
