LONG POST / LETS TALK 🎈🤧 First time front squatting (ever) at Warrior Academy today! 🎉 Eventually got the courage to go up to 11.5kg (nothingness), experienced a mix of fear and pride. Rest of the hour has been a blur of rowing, lunging, snatches and burpees. 😩🤦🏻♀️ thanks @stephaniessy for having me!
Been meaning to work more weights into my routine! But confession, actually going to these gyms/boxes/thingy intimidates the F outta me and I find myself shriveling up into a ball of insecurity and inferiority among other experienced lifters/people who look like they run 10k for breakfast. But hey 👋🏻 everyone starts somewhere. Showing up is 90% of the work. Ok I lied it’s about 1% but still, it’s that 1% that counts. Get a friend, make friends there, ask questions, don’t be afraid to suck because that means you’ll get better. I get unnecessarily competitive/self conscious but if I can stomach being the terrible noob at the back when I started spinning, bouncing, and now CrossFit/lifting - then I’m pretty sure you can too. I was a sack of potatoes. Now I’m a potato. 🥔 it’s all a journey and you can do it too 💪🏻💡
Aaaaaanyway, I’ll blog about my 2018 goals later. Now let’s CHAT 💭 What’s your fitness goals for next year? Wanna grab coffee? Be my gym Instagram friend? Eat hot pot together? Down for all of the above. Happy New Year everyone, sending love and light ✨🙏🏻💕
