Hi everyone!
I would like to tell you all a little bit about my journey into fitness. Let’s go back 2 years to 2018, back in 2018 I had never stepped foot into a gym – the thought of taking that step was terrifying to me.
Why?
Because this would take me outside of my comfort zone, and like most people I did not want to step outside of my comfort zone and make myself vulnerable.
My first time stepping foot into a gym was to join a 6 week challenge back in 2018. I still remember the feeling I had sitting outside the gym in the parking lot, struggling with my anxiety to get myself in the door; it was not easy, but once I got myself in there I never looked back!
I made new friends, I learned new things, I challenged myself more than I ever had before in my life and I was so proud of myself for doing that.
After the 6 week challenge ended I decided to sign up at a big box gym and rather than spending the extra money to continue training with a coach, I would work out on my own with all the new information I had learned during the challenge.
Little did I know, I needed the help of a coach to push myself and stay accountable!
After a few months of struggling to workout on my own in a public gym, I decided to search for training facilities in my area and this brought me to Degree! At the time of my
Free No Sweat Intro at Degree I was working two jobs. After walking out of Degree from my No Sweat Intro I decided it was time to quit my second job to free up time to commit to going to the gym.
It was that day when I decided that my health was going to be a priority.
I committed to going to training 3 days a week and adjusted my entire schedule to make sure I never had to miss a day because I knew just how good taking care of myself felt.
Since starting at Degree I have completed a full-time course at Fanshawe college while working 3 part time jobs at the same time and throughout that entire year I continued to make it to training 3 nights a week.
I am here to show you that it is possible to make the time for yourself while being busy!
Saying you don’t have the time to go to the gym is an easy excuse (we’ve all said it!) – but if you want to get healthier, feel better, have more energy, and overall be happier you need to make the time to take care of yourself!
You are important enough to squeeze into your busy schedule.
