Went to the gym for the first time ever yesterday, I was so nervous and there was so many people but I put my airpods in, worked out and enjoyed myself a lot! It’s not as nerve racking as you think it may be once you start working out! the hardest part is getting yourself to do it!
yes and theres no need to be embarrassed about going to the gym or worry about ppl judging u bc everyones going there to do the same thing workout and get healthier
Heyyyy, I think it's great you're motivating yourself to go to the gym. Take it step by step, it's more about mental and emotional healing and psychological preparation. I took 15 years before I went back to gym due to social anxiety and depression. I finally decided my health and mental health comes first. I'm overweight and a newbie but it feels amazing afterwards, and I always listen to Bollywood music whilst doing it, so I have fun!!!
ikr its a struggle, i keep searching the web for tips about this. a lot of things I read from other people say that no one is really watching u at the gym. generally they only watch people who are better than themselves so like if someone is lifting a ton of weights maybe. but for beginners and newbies i don't think they really watch us. i went the other day and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. i would do what she says and maybe go during non peak hours. I'm still nervous but hopefully if we keep pushing ourselves we can get to the point where its natural and not as nerve wracking. I've also read that people actually are super impressed and happy when they see ppl who struggle with their weight at the gym because it means that they are pushing themselves and dedicated. honestly I don't think people are as judgy just like she said in the video!
Another tip for any newbies who are unsure of how to use equipment and don’t want to ask/don’t have anyone to ask. UA-cam! I can’t tell you the amount of times I’ve sat on a machine and opened UA-cam found an instructional video thats taught me how to use it!
then please link the videos, this is like the 10th video in my search for a beginners guide workout and it's just gym babble that i dont understand. really not helping my anxiety.
This video really comforted me. I feel like what makes my anxiety peak at the gym is the fact that im a teen girl and look way younger than my actual age so its scary to walk in those areas where theres a bunch of older buff guys out of fear to be judged
omg bestie I felt that 😭 I'm in my 20's but I still look like I'm in my teens and since I use baggy clothes with animation characters I feel so judged next to the gym bros 😭 but hey, it's a good way to train your nervous system to get used to being uncomfortable, in the long run, it'll help you to deal with lots of situations in which you're uncomfortable
I watched this video this morning and just wanted to come back to say that I went to the gym for the first time in years this afternoon after watching your video and I really enjoyed it. I did 45 mins which went by so quickly and I enjoyed myself way more than I would have done just sitting on the sofa. I can see this becoming something I do more regularly :) Thanks for your video, it was really helpful.
For my first time in the gym, I actually found it really helpful to have a tour with a trainer who explained some of the machines to me. That helped a lot with my confidence because I already knew how some of them work. Now I try to use some more machines (I don't know yet). When I don't find out how to use them by myself I either use UA-cam tutorials or ask random people in the gym who already seem to know how to use it. Most of them are really friendly and are open to explain it to newbis since everyone started at some point. 😊
This is awesome!! I’m an avid gym go-er and this is how I think during my workouts!! you literally thought of everything. such great information for a newbie!
Definetly easier to ease into the gym w a friend. Going w maybe 1-2 people for a couple weeks n eventually going alone is a lot easier because you’ve created an idea of what ur workout will look like
Hi Brittany! I just recently started going to the gym, I had been working out from home but couldn’t find the courage to go to a local gym until I saw this vid. Definitely made me feel comfortable and confident enough to finally get up and join. Thank you a lot!!😊
In my gym there's a lady's room where you can do free weights so stuff isn't as intimidating and I've only been to the gym twice but Ive been loving that room
Thank you so much for this. I have Multiple Sclerosis and have been so afraid to go back to the gym. I bought a Clever Fox Wellness Planner off Amazon and I am fortunate enough to get a YMCA membership for free due to the MS. You’d never be able to tell that I have it so your video has convinced me to just suck it up and go back to cycling (I even have a Peloton at home!) and go to the Y for aquatic therapy and strength training. Thank you for the motivation! 💙💙💙💙💙
1. wear something that makes you confident 2. realize its college, no-one really cares (dont mean this in a mean way just you do you, they'll do them yk) 3. you got this, be consistent
Here are my tips as a new person. I went to the gym for 3 days already, tomorrow will be my 4th. As a newbie, I'd say it isn't as BAD as I thought. The staff are friendly and people aren't rude. Most people are going to be wearing their headphones and focusing on their workout, so don't overthink or worry too much. If people happen to stare, which I think was happening to my sister and I since we are new, just don't look or focus at them and just pay attention to yourself only. Noise-cancelling headphones are a must have if you really want to lock in, they help me focus so much and block a lot of noise. I have the sony xm4 headphones and they work amazing. As I mentioned, I am a NEWBIE, I have no knowledge whatsoever on how to use anything. I recommend asking a trainer there to help or bring someone you know that already goes there or knows what they're doing to help you. If you are too scared or can't find any, go search up the workouts on UA-cam!! I was lucky to have some friends who already work out make me a beginner friendly workout for me and I just searched up on UA-cam how to do it. I was also heavily overthinking and anxious before I signed up, but days have passed and I'm feeling a lot better, I'm still a little nervous but I'm better than I was day 1. Bring someone with you as well if you're nervous like me (I go with my sister). At the end of the day, everyone is there to workout to better themselves and do their thing
im a plus size girl and i am soooooo self conscious that really ripped and fit people will judge me. i really want to get started but the anxiety really gets to me.
This is actually very helpful even for someone like me who is going to be at a very, VERY small gym. I'm talking, a handful of macines, since our villiage is quite small, but that might honestly make it perfect for me with my anxiety. And I've already talked to one of the workers there about general overview of the gym, getting to see the layout, as well as upgrades that are coming (new machines and a shake bar!) and a little bit of the culture there, they have a whiteboard to introduce yourself, or, if you're comfortable, putting down your goals/weigh ins. Tonight will be my first time as well, which I plan on asking about machines mostly, as well as making sure I at least have a short workout planned! I'm just excited to actually get out for movement, as much as I was an avid believer in home workouts; with a lack of space and sometimes that extra lack of motivation since I feel like at home you can easily say "oh, I'll workout in 10 minutes".... then hours go by and nothing was done.... :P But even for someone like me with a ton of anxiety and self conciousness, it's important to remember, others are going to the gym for much the same reasons you are. Even if others have much more confidence or no anxiety whatsoever, it's not like someone is going to a gym to literally just stare at new or awkward people and point and laugh. They have their own zone to be in, their own goals to work on. The gym is a place of self improvement.
Recovering from a stroke of 2 years and I use a cane, I am able to walk on this a few minutes a day because of how easy it is to get on and off of it and the slowest setting.
Thank u for this video cuz im 6 months postpartum and im finally decided to go back to the gym but I honestly forgot wat I used to do wen I did go before I got pregnant 😅
What do you do when all the equipment/machines you want are taken? I feel like every time i've worked out in an open gym i've felt out of place and like I never get to do the actual workout I wanted. But I don't wanna just hover or something haha. Also, where do you take the free weights when you move away from the rack? I lift free weights at home (dumbells and barbells) so I'm comfortable with my weights/form but feel like I just get stares at the gym.
I’ve been going to the gym again now for a few weeks but I usually just run/ do cardio, I’m losing weight but I want to maintain my current strength but maybe gain just to have a bit of tone. I really have no idea how to strength train and I do not want to look muscular
gaining muscle takes ALOT of work and time. Usually any results pop up in a month or two AT LEAST with consistent training. So my suggestion is to incorporate strength training when you go into the gym, don’t worry about getting bulky in those moments, and make sure to push yourself if you wanna get muscle definition. Also, you won’t gain muscle mass unless you’re in a caloric surplus with plentyyy of protein, so just be conscious of what you eat outside the gym. Once you notice you’re getting too bulky for your liking, you can just lean off the weights and not go as hard.
can you suggest some strength training videos for a beginner at gym so that i can do it on my own??? like how many days a week and how much time each day and what all should i do each day are there any suggestions or videos i can watch??? by the way the gym that i joined has many machines and i get nervous because i dont know where to start - my goal is strength training and core strengthening and loosing weight any suggestions are appreciated❤️
When I put in music I'm terrified if I'm breathing to loud so I end up not listening to music, but Instead I get a PowerPoint from a lesson and try to do light revision/ memory
I know one of the reason why i don't have much motivation to go to gym. I am not confident about my hairstyle ahaha and dont really like the outfit I picked up!!😮
Thank you Brittany!! This video was very informative and encouraging! I am going to the gym in a few hours for the first time and I’m very excited!! Thank you thank you thank you🫶🫶
I wanna go to the gym but Ive never been before so now I'm just watching millions of youtube videos for tips on going for the first time😅 (perhaps its procrastination. Who knows) anyway does anyone have any tips maybe?
When I worked out at home for a few weeks I found you don’t even want all those heavy/unhealthy foods you would usually eat. My anxietyyy though! I wish I could get my life together
I’m starting gym in October. So nervous. Already had the Fitness Club tour and I’ll get three workouts with a trainer. But still so nervous 😂 I am a very socially awkward person 😅
During my weight loss journey, I neverrrr went to the gym.. did all at home workouts & diet change, lost 100 lbs & stillllllll nervous to get into the gym! I just don’t wanna look stupid 😩
Friends! Come to the gym! The big body builder dude or the chunky girl (me) ALL 99% of the time respect you just for shoeing UP❤❤❤ They know the fight your in and admire you for showing up for yourself! I have NEVER had a negative experience in a gym. Most people only encourage each other there❤ and if someone is mean to someone else you best beli e someone will step in and HELP YOU. that is the gym vibe. ❤i have been helped a lot at gyms: not with megative people bit with questions, practical info or just a lift that went wrong❤
I’ve recently moved to tblisi (georgia) for my university, and there’s this huge language barrier; I’ve wanted to do gym since the longest time but never found the opportunity to; I’ve found a great gym with a hell lot of equipment and it’s well maintained too; the morning hours from 9 to 11 are cheaper then the evening hours so that’s what I’m going to go for; that also fits my routine so that’s settled; however; no one at the gym understands English; not even staff; and there’s barely one or two people at the gym in the morning working out. There’s no way I can ask them for help cause they won’t understand me; it’s crazy; like I finally get the chance to do what I want and I can’t because I don’t know what to do; like lifting weights and shit; I want to do strength training but I don’t know how to; I’ve always seen online that while one person is laying down and lifting; another stands next to his head; making sure that the weights don’t fall at the one working out. But I don’t have that; I don’t know anywhere here that I can tag along with it ask to come with me; it’s bothering me; what should I do.
I think it’s funny how you moved to a different country and still expected them to speak English but you’re the one who moved there and have no knowledge of their language 😂 no hate tho
It’s funny for me that I’m actually a very insecure person but I used to go my uni gym every day and mess around totally oblivious to the people around me… now YEARS later I saw so much content of people making fun of our mistakes and giving so many advice that I’m to terrified to step foot in a gym ever again 😂
I’m 17 and I’ve always been skinny but recently I’ve started gaining belly fat because of stress eating, I want to start going to the gum before I gain too much weight but idk where to start and I’m also scared of getting broad shoulders 😭
i love your videos. you’re so encouraging it feels like i’m talking to a friend! do you have any fitness app recommendations? i feel like my fitnes journey always abruptly ends because i never know what to do in the gym or how to plan workout outs 😓
I’m 16 and 49kg. Can I lift weights? I’m a ballerina so I don’t want to get bulky, I’m not sure how often to train if I can even lift weights as I just want to be stronger, not get physical results really
Going back to the gym today for the first time in a year! I’m so nervous and anxious it’s so weird… especially because it’s a new gym in a new country! …wish me luck 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I just joined up yesterday, but I’m worried about what you say about clothes that you’re comfortable and feel confident in or you’ll have a bad workout. The reason I need the gym is because I look awful in any clothes. Hopefully that doesn’t mean ill fail because I don’t feel confident
Hi! Just saw this comment and I wanted to say this is my exact reason I joined the gym and I just wear more free flowing top with some shorts once you start you will honestly feel so much more confident!
@@elliesharples1208 been going for 3 weeks now, I’ve realised no one really looks at you anyway so I’m pretty happy to wear a free flowing shirt like you said. The weight hasn’t really started to drop yet but I soo feel happier within myself
What are your current favorite workouts? and upcoming goals? Thanks for keeping me inspired in my continued fitness progress and growth. I'll ask again on the next one hope you're doing well.
So I’m going to start the gym in a few days and I want a routine. Could anyone can recommend me a app that is useful or wherever that can help me to not be lost at the gym ??
So im going. A small gym at my apartments lol and i still didn't know where to start. ... I went today for the first time and i did the treadmill for 30 min I just don't know if I'm getting the most out of my time because I did a custom on the treadmill and I kept going up to five and down to 2 then back up to 4 then back down to 1 ...
Went to the gym for the first time ever yesterday, I was so nervous and there was so many people but I put my airpods in, worked out and enjoyed myself a lot! It’s not as nerve racking as you think it may be once you start working out! the hardest part is getting yourself to do it!

People at the gym are so nice! the fact that you’re there shows courage and commitment. I guarantee they will be applauding you in their head

I’ve recently moved to tblisi (georgia) for my university, and there’s this huge language barrier; I’ve wanted to do gym since the longest time but never found the opportunity to; I’ve found a great gym with a hell lot of equipment and it’s well maintained too; the morning hours from 9 to 11 are cheaper then the evening hours so that’s what I’m going to go for; that also fits my routine so that’s settled; however; no one at the gym understands English; not even staff; and there’s barely one or two people at the gym in the morning working out. There’s no way I can ask them for help cause they won’t understand me; it’s crazy; like I finally get the chance to do what I want and I can’t because I don’t know what to do; like lifting weights and shit; I want to do strength training but I don’t know how to; I’ve always seen online that while one person is laying down and lifting; another stands next to his head; making sure that the weights don’t fall at the one working out. But I don’t have that; I don’t know anywhere here that I can tag along with it ask to come with me; it’s bothering me; what should I do.
I would watch youtube tutorials first and then when I got to the gym try google translate! Don’t give up!
I think it’s funny how you moved to a different country and still expected them to speak English but you’re the one who moved there and have no knowledge of their language 😂 no hate tho
off the bat, love your energy! lol SUBSCRIBED!
Helpful
It’s funny for me that I’m actually a very insecure person but I used to go my uni gym every day and mess around totally oblivious to the people around me… now YEARS later I saw so much content of people making fun of our mistakes and giving so many advice that I’m to terrified to step foot in a gym ever again 😂
i wish i had someone to go with i always bring it up with my only 2 friends 😭 i’m scared of my insecurities becoming a reality ..
did u start???
Thanks so much for this ❤
I’m 17 and I’ve always been skinny but recently I’ve started gaining belly fat because of stress eating, I want to start going to the gum before I gain too much weight but idk where to start and I’m also scared of getting broad shoulders 😭
i love your videos. you’re so encouraging it feels like i’m talking to a friend! do you have any fitness app recommendations? i feel like my fitnes journey always abruptly ends because i never know what to do in the gym or how to plan workout outs 😓
I’m 16 and 49kg. Can I lift weights? I’m a ballerina so I don’t want to get bulky, I’m not sure how often to train if I can even lift weights as I just want to be stronger, not get physical results really
me too
Is it okay if ME a 14 year old girl go to the gym?
Thanks so much for this!!! So awesome ❤️
Thanks my sister and I watched this
Me and my bsf are going together for the first time together. I'm so nervous😭😭😭😭
today I went to a new gym, I'm not familiar with the free weights area so I felt way too intimidated to go set up a squat rack and workout :(
What is a good work out app for someone that wants to get into shape as a new year resolution and wants to get back into the gym
Bold of you to assume I’m going to the gym everyday 😂
Going back to the gym today for the first time in a year! I’m so nervous and anxious it’s so weird… especially because it’s a new gym in a new country! …wish me luck 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This just helped me so much! Thank you a lot ! 💞
Very nice video, i click on yr video before going to 1st time for a gym, 😊
The gym I go to my dad got a free membership from June to August
You're so lovely thank you for your help🥺❤
Love this viedeo, thank you😍
Love this encouragement, God bless you❤😊
Well damn, this really made me miss my gym 😭 #covidsucks
Man I wish the gyms were this nice where I’m from ahaha
Yeeeeessssss Britt time!
hehe yay!! :)
I'm terrified
I just joined up yesterday, but I’m worried about what you say about clothes that you’re comfortable and feel confident in or you’ll have a bad workout. The reason I need the gym is because I look awful in any clothes. Hopefully that doesn’t mean ill fail because I don’t feel confident
Hi! Just saw this comment and I wanted to say this is my exact reason I joined the gym and I just wear more free flowing top with some shorts once you start you will honestly feel so much more confident!
@@elliesharples1208 been going for 3 weeks now, I’ve realised no one really looks at you anyway so I’m pretty happy to wear a free flowing shirt like you said. The weight hasn’t really started to drop yet but I soo feel happier within myself
Great video 👍🏻👍🏻✨✨✨✨
What are your current favorite workouts? and upcoming goals? Thanks for keeping me inspired in my continued fitness progress and growth. I'll ask again on the next one hope you're doing well.
So I’m going to start the gym in a few days and I want a routine. Could anyone can recommend me a app that is useful or wherever that can help me to not be lost at the gym ??
Love this one! ❤️
There's a gym in my condo and I really wanna go to it, but I'm scared. Thanks for the video!
Great advice, thank you
That was very helpful thank you so much ♥
I'm about to be 14 but I'm scared of men staring at me. So I don't know what to do because I really do want to start going.
You will be okay! I believe in you :D
my mums forcing me to start up at the gym lol, i have so much anxiety but this video has helped
man i really wish you would hold my hand 😭😭 i’m so nervous but i want and need to start working out. i haven’t been active for like 4 years 😔😔
Love this video
If you find someone to go work out with. You will not have any of these issues. It's only when you go by yourself.
So im going. A small gym at my apartments lol and i still didn't know where to start. ... I went today for the first time and i did the treadmill for 30 min I just don't know if I'm getting the most out of my time because I did a custom on the treadmill and I kept going up to five and down to 2 then back up to 4 then back down to 1 ...
i want to go to the gym but the only gym I have access to is one on a navy base and its always full of 20 year old marines and its scary....
I always avoid the free weights area the guys hog up the best spots especially the cable machine. I get my weights and head to a open room. 😢😣
This gym is massive! Where is it?
Where do you get your workout gear? I can never seem to find anything cute and comfy and affordable
