Hey friend,
Are you struggling with showing up for yourself?
Let’s get clear on your expectations.
If you're getting back into movement...
for the first time ever
after a long time or period away (& you’re hella nervous!)
or you’re experiencing (or have experienced) high stress
Aiming for a 100kg hip thrust or a bench press PB is IRRELEVANT!
Here’s why:
We don’t start reading and then start swallowing down entire encyclopedias in the first month of kindy
We don’t start a new job and then replace our boss in the first 3 months
We don’t start cooking and then take over as head chef of a 3 hat restaurant
Movement is learning.
And learning is about
1. Being a beginner
2. Understanding it's a skill that takes practice!
We tell ALL our newbies that for the first 90-100 days - don't set any huge goals. Instead:
aim to SHOW UP imperfectly
BUILD the habit of moving
WRESTLE with how it can fit in around your already busy life
Find your fav ways to move!
I promise you, this will take the stress off and you'll end up surprising yourself with:
increased strength
lifting heavier
feeling more energized and connected to your body!
You’ve got this!
