The best thing I recommend for beginners is to go at like 3am on a Monday when noone is there, then just walk around and slowly learn every machine. Look at the pictures, and if you can't figure it out pull up youtube videos. When the gym is empty you can really just take your time and learn.

The Bible can be summed up in 1 word. Jesus. Jesus means salvation. But you may say “what do I need to be saved from?” Sin and its consequence (which is Hell-the wrath of God). But you may say “I don’t Sin”. Jesus said all humans have sinned in thought, word, or deed, so either you are lying, or Jesus is lying. On the topic of sin have you ever lied, stolen anything, spoken abusively to or about someone, Swore, Blasphemed God’s Holy name, lusted after the opposite sex, had premarital sex, cheated, hated someone? Jesus died on the cross and experienced the wrath of God on Himself in order for you to be forgiven and reconciled with God. All you have to do is repent (change from your sinful ways) and Believe in Jesus. Romans 6: 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

It's so crazy to see how you grow when you step out of your comfort zone. I was so scared at the beginning and going to the gym was always a struggle for me and now it's just become my second home.

[@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363]

@@8thhousealchemist600 Why should God let you into Heaven? Have you lied (even once in your entire life), looked with lust at the opposite sex, dishonoured parents, stolen anything, had hatred towards someone, had premarital sex, adultery etc If you answered yes to any one of the above then you are a sinner like the rest of us. So, I ask you again, why should God let a sinner into Heaven? Sinners don’t go to heaven they go to hell, But we are blessed to have Jesus (God incarnate) die on the Cross and rise from the dead. If you Repent (forsake your sinful, unholy ways and live righteous instead) & Believe in Jesus as God, you will be seen as a Saint and welcomed into Heaven. John 3:17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved

This video is so helpful! I just started going to the gym (2 weeks tomorrow to be exact) and my first week was full of anxiety. I felt uncomfortable because I wanted to lift weights, but didn’t know how to use the machines. So I was stuck on treadmill (watched Grey’s Anatomy episodes while walking 😂). So at the beginning of week 2, I finally found courage to go up to a fit couple working out and asked if I could train with them. They were both so sweet and welcoming and even included me in their workout routine! 😭 The girl even showed me her workout schedule. We became friends and I know one day I want to be the one to help out someone new to the gym. I’m still new, but I’ve learned a lot watching videos and asking friends for help. 🙂

Here’s my #1 tip if you don’t want to look like a newbie. Use only one or two sets of dumbbells or other gym equipment at once . I know it’s easier to lay everything you need right in front of you for your entire workout but people will get annoyed and go up to you if you’re taking too long with the equipment especially if you’re hogging more than one thing. :p

[@Just_Futzing_Around]

What I find that helps me is 1- have a plan on what your workout will consist of (equipment, # of sets n reps) 2-research before your workout the proper form and use of said equipment 3-remember why you are here in the first place. The regret of not getting in a good workout is worse than the risk of looking "goofy" in the gym or stepping outside your comfort zone. 4-EVERYONE has started from zero. Don't compare your chapter 1 to their chapter 30.

[@19deathtrooper]

Knowing how to use the equipment and having a good workout routine is more important than what you wear

[@groovyzombietingz4804]

Yea but your comfort is heavily reliant on if you feel content with how you are presenting yourself. That includes clothing. If you want to blend in, wear dark colors. A newbie in hot pink vs a newbie in black clothing will probably not draw the same attention

[@kreesaisbury197]

Wearing flat shoes (vans, Converse) are a good option for the gym bc when you do squats you want your feet to be as flat as possible so you're balanced. In swim we usually just take our shoes off but you don't want to do that in a public gym lol

I didn't even know gyms have tours. This is so going to save so much intimidation and nervousness off my initial plan. I'm healing my dominant foot from a 5th metatarsal fracture and really just want to use the pool until I can start strength training. I love swimming and when I heard water aerobics and swimming is great from my doctor, I went and signed myself up but haven't been back since. I'm an extrovert, but gyms idk I'm so intimidated by gyms. The intimidation & fear is irrational! I'm calling my gym tomorrow and scheduling a tour ASAP.

Hey, I’m looking to join the gym soon, but have a lot of anxiety and really nervous about going! It’s been 5 months since you’ve written this, and I want to ask you how it’s going!

[@krnatiny8823]

@@dcoop7516 hey there! Firstly I would like to say happy new year! Now, for these past five months I have had many ups and downs. My anxiety is still definitely there but I have consistently pushed through and can happily say that I go to the gym at least 4/5 days a week all by myself, and have managed to lose 15kg because of it!! :)) I want to say that it’s something you can easily overcome but if I’m honest, it will take some time. Taking the first step is what sucks the most, however, once ur past that you will learn that the people around you don’t really pay attention to what you’re doing. For all we know, they’re just like us, silently hoping and praying that they’re not watched by others or made fun of for doing something incorrectly. Some advice I would give you is maybe find someone who can help you adjust to the environment, like a friend or a family member, just so the process isn’t as nerve wracking as without someone beside you. Then, eventually, you probably won’t need them beside you anymore. I know we all deal with anxiety in our own ways so you should try several things before making any rash decisions. Just keep telling yourself that you’re doing this for you and for your mental health. And just know that although it feels like everyone is watching, they aren’t (I can’t stress this enough), everyone is in their own little world and you should have the same mindset! Make a nice playlist and watch your life unfold into something truly magnificent. I offer you many virtual hugs and the best of luck with your journey. You’ve got this! I believe in your ability to be a better version of yourself

That should absolutely never be a reason to hold you back from going to the gym. Doesn't matter one bit. Go in, put your music on and hit the weights. And have fun 🔥👍

[@captainlevi4284]

Being gay isn't a reason to be ashamed of :)

[@AikoSilver]

Hey, gay girl here. I actually feel more confident being gay in the gym. I feel like theres no pressure of turning down guys LOL bc we're just here for a workout

[@Dravenhager]

This has been my only motivation / emotional support going through my journey of trying to be my best self thank you for the videos

[@bxangie23]

Hahaha... the hat part🤣🤣🤣you’re so funny So glad I found your channel; so helpful!!!

[@donnas606]

I signed up for the gym about 3 weeks ago. I've finally looked up videos to help boost my confidence. Thanks to the comments here, I think I will sum up the courage to go.

[@obeytweety]

Queen of gym and not over editing

[@stefanie0158]

The gym I'm at isn't that big and it's honestly not embarrassing. When I have no clue what I'm doing I ask others and we laugh and they tell that when they came at first they didn't have a clue as well . They teach me what to do and tell.me to call them if idk something everyone is hella nice. It's comfy 😂

Though i have always been exercising at home n pretty much know wat i want and my workout routine... But i thought of joining gym and today was my first day... Hardly i used 4 equipments and nothing major but the thought of skipping from there kept pestering cuz of the new environment n people might b🙄... None the less... Wud again go tomorrow with more confidence and stick to a simpler routine

[@gloebby3236]

Not me searching these videos on my first gym day today. It was so embarrassing

[@8thhousealchemist600]

I actually use a boot/sneaker combo made by Timberland for hiking for squads and leg days because they are sturdy and got grip for days.

[@positivelypurposeful8522]

One thing that really helps me is wearing wireless headphones or earbuds. But I realize that most people aren’t even paying attention to you because they are too into their own workout

[@yeimyfuentes4447]
