i wish someone told me this when i started gymming

i made these mistakes so you don’t have to 🫣 here are some things that you can avoid doing when you start your fitness journey

🥵 WORSHIPPING THE SCALE

i remember when i just started gymming for the first few months, my goal was to lose weight. i would weigh myself every single day without fail. when the numbers wasn’t what i wanted, i would get super frustrated with myself and cut down on my food intake 🤡 after asking around and doing some research, i realised that it was probably just muscle mass LMAO. essentially new exercises can lead to micro tears in muscle fibers when building muscle mass so DON’t be too worried about the numbers! focus on your routine and diet ♥️

🥲 COMPARING YOUR GROWTH WITH OTHERS

everyone’s starting point is different and the fact that YOU are taking steps to start your fitness journey shows a LOT about you 🫶🏼 focus on your own journey, be your own competition! take before and after pictures because it’s where you can actually SEE your growth. tho i can’t see it, i’m proud of you <3

👎🏻 EXPECTING IMMEDIATE RESULTS

don’t ever quit just because you don’t see a difference :< it takes time to see the changes in your body! be patient, stick to a routine and you will definitely see results through consistency 😉

what are some mistakes you made when you started out your fitness journey! share em 🫶🏼
