DO YOU HATE THE GYM? YOU'RE NOT ALONE...
Do you hate the gym? Well, guess what? You're not alone, in fact, 90% of our clients hated the idea of training in a gym before they started with us.
WE UNDERSTAND
We sympathise with everyone that has gym-phobia, whether that be from a bad experience in the past or just the thought of it. We actually would never choose to exercise in a big corporate gym ourselves, the thought puts us off like no other.
Do you hold any of the following beliefs about exercising in a gym?
Gyms are for fit and strong people?
Gyms are for young people?
Gyms are for possers?
You have to be comfortable and strong to attend the gym?
You have to know what you're doing because there is no help?
Everyone will look at you because you don't know what you're doing?
These are all common beliefs that people have around the gym and therefore choose to avoid it. How do you change these beliefs? Is it finding a way around these very real scenarios and building a mindset to manage them? Or will that be vulnerable to break down by one funny look or one rude comment from a fellow gym-goer?
The answer could be far simpler, maybe it's finding an environment that has actually been created to accommodate and make people who hate the gym feel comfortable and actually love coming to the gym?
At Foundation we pride ourselves in the environment and culture we have created where everyone is welcome, no one is judged and the most important outcome of your experience is that you actually really enjoy your time in the gym.
If this kind of environment sounds like what you have been missing then please get in contact with us. We love to help people achieve fitness goals and improve their health but we also love making people feel safe and at home in our environment.
