This morning I did a workout that pushed me to the point of wanting to either drop the weight or quit. But I can’t even explain the support I felt from the guys at my gym! 🥰
I decided to do the Beirut Tribute WOD today at my gym at the RX weight, The 38KG felt more like 90KG and my body was shaking past exhaustion. 45 minutes of pure effort!!! Everyone was slowly finishing the workout and I still had a full round left before even getting to the sit-ups!
At 40 minutes I was still pushing through the cleans of the final round, my body in absolute bits, I knew I was the last person working and everyone else was cooling off from the madness they had just took part in. I can’t even begin to tell you how much I wanted to give up but instead I was chanted on by everyone in the class!
‘30 seconds and you pick up that bar Yazz!’, ‘Come on 5 more reps!’, ‘You’ve got this Yazz!’, ‘Push, keep your chest up!’, ‘Last round Yazz, Keep going!’
have the most supportive gym members! I may have only got to 28 sit ups but I would not have been able to do it if it wasn’t for the guys around me pushing me past the mental block and exhaustion! I am eternally grateful to be part of an exceptional gym that is filled with exceptional people! ❤️ @ Lincoln, Lincolnshire
