Being a beginner can be scary, especially in a gym setting. 

There are spoken and unspoken rules of the gym, jacked dudes that look like they could eat you for breakfast (only to find out they're some of the friendliest people there), and of course, not having a clue where to start or what to do. In this episode it, I give you some tips to combat gym anxiety and go over proper gym etiquette so you feel more confident and knowledgeable as a new gym-goer in 2022. 

It's important to know that every person in the gym was in the same position you're in right now. Brand spankin' new filled with anxiety and caffeine, having no idea where to start. If you'd like to feel confident going to the gym with a plan that's customized for you and your specific goals, click the link below to work with me one on one so you know exactly what to do, how to do it and have me as your guide every step of the way.
