So one of two things happens…
You go to the machine that looks easy to use and do a few sets and watch other people out of the corner of your eye to see what to do next.
OR…
You skip the machines all together and head to do cardio.
Maybe you do some abs and you call it a day.
It FEELS like you worked hard but you don’t really have anything to show for it which makes it hard to stay consistent and that gym membership ends up becoming just another recurring bill that never gets used.
Sound familiar?
I’m not psychic — I’ve heard this exact story from people over and over and over again and honestly, it’s totally not your fault.
There’s this crazy perception that we’re somehow supposed to know how to workout and get the body we want without any formal training (you know, kinda like how we’re expected to know how to do taxes or start a business but never get any real formal training for it!)
Gyms treat members like an assembly line — they get you to join, set you up on auto billing and send you on your way.
Here’s the big secret…
They actually don’t WANT you to use the gym because if everyone who had a membership used it, they’d be over capacity!
So, no wonder why you wing it.
The gym doesn’t have to be terrifying.
The gym CAN be your release of stress…
It CAN be the thing that puts you in a good mood…
And it CAN finally get you the body you’ve wanted.
You see, the people who enjoy the gym aren’t crazy.
Trust me, there isn’t a “weight lifting gene” that they’re just born with…
And most of them aren’t just former athletes that had formal gym training.
Every single one of them started out awkward in the gym too.
And I know it might feel like it, but most of them aren’t even watching you!
I created Intro To The Gym as a toolkit to give you everything you need to have the confidence, knowledge and a program that you can use to finally conquer the gym like a pro.
Here’s what some of our transformers have had to say about my programs in the past:
