Try something new!!

On Friday I went to Rich's gym and was one of only two girls! I think gyms can be quite scary and I know as a girl it is hard to feel comfortable and get straight in there. 

Top tips! 
1. Read up- invest in a fitness magazine! Everytime women's fitness arrives on my doorstep I get firstly a sense of guilt, and then one of intrigue. It's so good to help you learn about what to do and why- pick a few exercises and try them out at home first before braving them at the gym.

2. YouTube! There are some really good exercise videos to try on YouTube and seeing videos of people working out can help you improve your form. 

3. Just do it!! Be brave. Get out there and pretend you know what you're doing- I always look at people in the gym and steal ideas- I don't know if they have had years of personal training or if they are rustling up their own routine. I think looking confident is half the battle. 

4. Let's face it- most blokes (and some girls) are way too busy looking at themselves in the mirror to give two hoots what you are or aren't doing!! (You all know I'm too busy taking selfies to look at other people- follow my Instagram account!!) 

Try a new peice of equipment this week at the gym! On Friday I tried inverted sit-ups- will post the video as evidence!!!
