Repost from @fitness_coach_dennis @chadhargrove1 ・・・ I’ve guided clients into the gym on their own before. People who were intimated for years. In every instance once they got in there they realized these things @maxnottfit talks about in this post. And they wished they’d gone sooner. ・・・ 👊🏼 STATE OF MIND in the gym is errythang, and it kills me to hear how so many people avoid going, or avoid lifting weights of any sort, simply because they feel INTIMIDATED 😣😔 ••• • 👉🏼 Here are a few tips to help you ditch that nonsense and start grinding 🔥: • ✅ You're wrong in thinking everyone is focused on what you're doing. People generally only think about themselves 😂 So take a deep breath, and straight up ignore them 💨 • ✅ Getting yourself to the gym is the first step. If you're already there, why waste any time worrying about anyone but yourself? 😎 • ✅ Go in with a plan. Lay out and learn exactly what you're going to do ahead of time. Walk in there and GO CRUSH IT 😵💥 • ✅ EVERYBODY IS INTIMIDATED. You don't have to believe me, but it's true. It's natural 🙌🏼 • ✅ Crank those tunes and get in your zone. It's the best way to really isolate yourself from your surroundings 🎶 • ✅ In honor of International Women's Day, I encourage all you ladies out there to give the weights a shot. They will literally change your life. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. I can't stress this enough 😭👏🏼 ••• 👊🏼 You are strong. You have more power than you realize. And you have every right to walk through those gym doors with every ounce of confidence and absolutely kill that workout. Stop thinking anything less of yourself 🙏🏻❤️ • • • • • #confidence #gymtips #gymhelp #lifeadvice #selfawareness
