Getting Healthy

You see that overweight girl who’s clearly self-conscious about being in the gym? Well if you make eye contact with her, smile.

You see that old guy who obviously doesn’t know how to use that piece of gym equipment correctly, maybe instead of taking snapchats making fun of him, show him how to use it properly.

Yo to that gangly teenager that not so subtlety copies your workout, let him. He admires you, and that’s a pretty big compliment. 

You see that overweight guy who’s always on the cardio machines but constantly staring at the weights section? Maybe wishing he had the confidence to tackle it. Smile at him, that might be all it takes.

You see those cardio moms that read their books and workout at the same time? Stop thinking you’re better because you’re more serious than them and maybe pull your head out of your ass and realise that this might be the only time they can afford to do both those things.

You see that thin girl who you think doesn’t even need to go to a gym? She’s doing this for her health, to better herself. Don’t you dare judge her.

You see that guy struggling with those weights that are clearly too heavy. Don’t laugh when he fails, praise him for his ambition, maybe suggest lighter weights.

See that woman right in the middle of the weight section, wearing skimpy clothing surrounded by all those guys. Respect her, do you even realise how much balls that takes? Don’t interrupt her or stare. She’s not her for you
