Any time you’re feeling nervous about being in the gym, remember that you’re in there to do a job and you owe it to yourself to conquer your fears by facing them head on!
They tell me the gym will help stabilize my moods—the adrenaline and the dopamine rush that exercise triggers will level out the rises and falls, interrupt the cycles that can lead me into and out of episodes and extreme moods.
Highlighting this may be the only input a trainer needs to do, pointing out possible comfort zones (places where one feels relaxed) and comfort rituals (relaxing activities like walking the dog).
Replace “I can’t go to the gym until I lose weight” with “I can go to the gym if I remind myself that facing my anxiety is an act of admirable courage.”
It’s simple really everybody in the gym you’re in started somewhere and they are there for a reason and that’s to lose weight, gain muscle or just simply relax with yoga and so on
Basically there’s no reason to feel nervous, we are all working out for the same reason. Once you get over that nervousness you will realise there’s literally nothing to worry about and the more you visit the gym your motivation and confidence will increase and I guarantee that.
Just sit your ass down on the bench and play some music, stop giving a fuck lmao. Everybody is busy kicking the shit out of themselves and questioning their own existence, they couldn’t give a damn about you lmao
I’ve never suffered from “gym-intimidation.” Although, I dont like going to a packed gym… mainly because I dont want to wait around for machines and just finish as fast as possible and continue the muscle burn without losing it to rest or fatigue.
I’m happy I found your channel, u feel so genuine. It’s really inspiring and helpful to watch your videos and listen to u, I’m trying to make it easier for myself to go to the gym. I just started and I’ve wanted it for so long, but always been hold back by myself. So thank you for this. ❤️
I felt the complete same, especially when it came to my first time bench pressing. I couldn’t even do 5kg on each side of the bar, I just knew I was being secretly judged and I felt horrible and weak. Now I’ve built up to do nearly 20kg on each side for reps easily, and feel as if i “fit in” more.
This has actually happened to me countless times. I remember being in a situation at the Y, I was trying to find a machine to use and everything was taken but everyone was also staring at me. Hated the feeling that I had at the gym and it happened a bunch of times, so I left and went to Golds. Very welcoming environment there and good people everywhere. No judgement, just people minding their own while occasionally chatting with others. Ever since my move into a new gym I feel better about working out and have been able to refocus myself.
All of the points you made here are great new ways for me to try things though and I will definitely be putting them to the rest for myself! Thank you Krysten:)
This vid deserve to be converted as an audio podcast it is that good and very impressive edits. keep up the badass work ma friend you are so intelligent/great motivator.
the ULTIMATE secret i had was walking in with my earphones on listening to a song that makes me feel like a boss. That really allowed me to almost feed off being completely stared at by the creepy men (I know, it sounds weird lol) instead of being anxiety ridden knowing that every move i make, one of the people watching me IS going to notice like i was before. The key is having confidence that you ARE a boss and steal the show when you walk up in their girls!!! <3
I found your channel through The Gem Goddess love and light to you and your channel, I relate to this so much. I can’t wait to see your followers grow! Just subscribed
I’m full of anxiety when going to the gym lately. I am at my heaviest because of my meds and I hate it. I’m glad I found this video, you made me more powerful ❤️
As someone on the smaller side (tho I’m a 5’3″ 17yo, and I’m 130lbs so maybe I’m not that small ahaha), it’s so impressive and encouraging to see larger people working out bc (and I hope this doesn’t sound condescending) 1. that means there are no excuses for me feeling self conscious or for going easy on myself and 2. it’s impressive that they’re determined, working hard, and being active. It always makes me more determined to take care of myself because it’s easier for me than it is for them and yet they’re working way harder than I am. So just bc there are lots of fit people around doesn’t mean anyone is judging! And who knows, maybe the slimmer person used to be way less healthy/in shape
thanks Joey this video is gonna help me because i’m signing up for a gym membership tomorrow, it will be the first day of my weight loss transformation journey, i’m prepared for the long road ahead…..i’ll be back in one year to let you guys know how i went. i hope this comment inspires someone else to get started as-well.

When i was super out of shape around 301, i was afraid to go to the gym and workout because of the way i look. But i have learn to love and be content of the body that i had put myself too.
