Let’s Talk Gym Intimidation 💪
Ever walked into the gym, saw a sea of machines, heavy lifters, and thought: “Nope, not for me”?
You’re not alone.
👉 Many of us feel like we have to “already be fit” to even deserve a spot in the gym.
But here’s the truth: the gym is for beginners, for restarters, and for anyone brave enough to show up.
🔥 Nobody’s watching you as much as you think. (They’re too busy worrying about their own workout.)
🔥 Every expert was once a beginner.
🔥 You don’t need to “earn” the gym by losing weight first.
If stepping into the gym feels intimidating, start small:
✅ Walk in, do 15 minutes, and leave proud.
✅ Ask staff for help—you’re not supposed to know everything.
✅ Remember, confidence is built through action, not before it.
NOW is the perfect time to prioritise your health. Not tomorrow. If the gym feels scary… that’s just proof you’re stepping outside your comfort zone (where the growth happens 😉).
👉 Who else has battled gym intimidation? Drop a 💯 if you’ve been there.
