š£ From Gym Jitters to Gym Boss
A lil' cry never hurt nobody šŖ
Hey there, my juicy little jaffa cake š
Gym anxiety is a lot like a clingy ex who just won't bugger off.
Your ex blows up your phone with "You up?" texts at 2 AMā¦
Gym Anxiety blows up your brain with messages like "Are you SURE you want to go to the gymā?.
Your ex stalks your social mediaā¦
Gym anxiety has you obsessively check gym selfies, convinced everyone is judging you.
Your ex makes you second-guess yourself and your decisionsā¦
Gym anxiety makes you doā¦ the EXACT same thing.
You're not alone if the thought of stepping into a gym makes you want to crawl under your duvet and binge-watch Bridgerton for the 17th time.
We've all been there, sweating bullets before we even touch a dumbbell.
But here's the thing: just like you eventually told that clingy ex to take a hike, you can kick gym anxiety to the curb too.
Don't believe me?
Check out what one of our Blitz Your Bitz legends just dropped in my inbox:
"I went to the gym on my own this morning and did the full upper body program from my sheet for the first time... I feel stupid and ridiculous getting so anxious about going to the gym... I'm just having a little cry at home because I'm proud of myself for doing it"
First off, thereās NOTHING stupid about this.
I've been there.
Most people who train have been there.
Itās pretty much part of the process of achieving your fitness goals.
But letās dig a little deeper here and talk about gym anxieties little snarky fuckwit of a sidekickā¦
Fear.
Itās scary going to the gym on your own and working on yourself.
But here's the thing about pushing past that fear:
You start walking taller.
Smiling more.
Maybe even winking at yourself in the mirror (don't lie, we all do it).
Your confidence spills over into other areas of your life.
That presentation at work? Piece of cake.
That first date? You've got this.
And the best part?
The more you do it, the easier it gets.
Soon, you're strutting into that gym like you own the place.
That pride? That little happy cry? That's just the beginning.
And in Blitz Your Bitz? We're all about celebrating those wins.
Big, small, or somewhere in the middle.
Speaking of which...
This is your last chance to join the BYB crew this year.
Don't let gym anxiety cockblock your fitness goals.
Get on the waitlist here and let's turn those gym jitters into gym swagger.
Because trust me, nothing beats the feeling of conquering your fears and becoming the badass you were always meant to be.
Big love, Rachel š„°
P.S. Seriously, get on that waitlist. It's more exclusive than the Met Gala, and way more fun.
