Anxious About the Gym?
New to the gym? Start small, breathe deep, and focus on your growth — confidence builds with action.
Feeling nervous about going to the gym is completely normal — especially when you’re starting something new. With time and the right mindset, confidence grows.
Tips to ease gym anxiety:
Remind yourself everyone was a beginner once
Set small, manageable goals and build gradually
Go during quieter hours to feel more comfortable
Bring a friend for support or try a beginner-friendly class
Focus on your own progress, not comparisons
Mindset matters too. Try reframing negative thoughts and practise deep breathing. The more you show up, the more at home you’ll feel.
