I am 20 years old and I started my fitness journey about 3 years ago and like most people I was also a beginner trying to learn on my own. Taking the time to learn fitness on your own is not a bad thing, however I spent a lot of time doing things wrong. For the first year my form was bad which was causing me to get injured, I didn't have the correct routine for my goals, I didn't know how important nutrition was.
Thankfully, I met my current trainer at the gym who gave me advice and taught me how to actually workout. Reaching your goals is not only about doing the movements its about accountability, nutrition, and fitness all combined. Since then I have seen so much more progression than I was seeing when I was trying to "teach" myself how to workout.
I know how scary the commercial gyms can be because I was once in that position. Wanting to be healthier and look better but not knowing what to do or if you are even doing it right. Being a first timer at the gym especially alone can be intimidating and unmotivating but since I understand the struggle I want to help others prepare to attend the bigger gyms with confidence.
I look forward to hearing from you.
