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.
