do you ever self doubt? 🥲
when we are unsure of something, fear tends to kick in and we start to second guess and doubt ourselves. it can trickle into all aspects of our daily life.. decision making, reaching goals, even doing something new that’s fun!
well, today self doubt kicked in for me while i was working out with my friend. i haven’t done the leg press machine in FOREVER. i mean probably over a year because when COVID happened, i didn’t go to the gym for the longest time. so i worked with a lot of at home equipment.
soo.. we walk over to the leg press machine and there are 45lbs on each side. i immediately was like “umm we gonna have to take those off😳”. so we switched them out for 25lbs. i was like oh cool, this is pretty easy.. so we added 10lbs.. not bad either.. we kept going until i pressed 180lbs at the leg press machine!!! tell me how i went from thinking i could only do 50lbs (total, 25lbs each side) to doing 180lbs (total, 90lbs each side??? and i did my full reps so that wasn’t even maxing out 😰
when i tell you.... don’t let that self doubt stop you from reaching your goals!! don’t let that self doubt make you think you’re not capable of doing something. don’t let that self doubt create a narrative in your mind that’s not true!
yes that is a biscuit in my hand but that’s my business 🤣
