Seriously if there's hope for me, there's hope for anyone 😂 I used to hate PE/sport and would physically dread it in primary school.
I've never been sporty nor athletically talented and am too socially anxious to enjoy any kind of team/partner activity. When I was younger I tried tennis, touch footy, netball and cheerleading, and hated all of them. Not one for bouldering either lol.
Then once I got a full-time job, I joined the gym because that's how I thought I'd lose weight. Made no progress, then started F45, which led me to bodybuilding, which led me to powerlifting (my one true love 🥺) - because I realised I love feeling strong.
On a whim I decided to try boxing and pilates and am really enjoying them too. Sometimes you just have to take the plunge and try something, accept you'll feel like a fool when you start, and then make a judgement.
So don't write off weights or cardio when you haven't even given it a go!
There's some kind of movement for everyone. Choose movement not to punish yourself or because you need to lose weight, or because it's trendy - choose movement because you actually have fun doing it.
Shoutout to Jase for dealing with my lack of coordination 😆
