5 Things New Gym Goers Get Wrong

from Thrive After 40 with NicFitness Hosted by Nic

Starting the gym can feel overwhelming, especially when it seems like everyone else knows exactly what they're doing. In this episode of Thrive After 40, I talk through the five biggest mistakes I see new gym-goers make, from waiting until they're "fit enough" to join, to constantly changing workouts and worrying about lifting weights. If you've ever felt intimidated by the gym, this episode will help you build confidence, avoid common pitfalls and focus on what really matters when you're starting your fitness journey. Because nobody starts as an expert, and everyone has to begin somewhere.
