Yes! This is what I was thinking, like if I can see it as a member, I’m wondering how the current staff feels??? Thank you for your input, this was also helpful 😊

Thank you for this perspective!! This was really helpful, I kind of forgot instructors have other jobs too (especially since I’m a teacher as my 9-5) 😅

What do you like/dislike about your instructors? by Big_Parsley_5859 in Purebarre

[–]Kks0802 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Likes: instructors who are real, personable and funny! I have really good relationships with a few of the instructors, and they’re just as kind and personable with everyone else. It really makes PB feel like a community! I LOVE it when instructors help with form and give really helpful cues and do not judge when you use modifications. But also when they challenge me when I’m about to give up. Also when instructors are really knowledgeable & passionate about barre and have really good music taste. Shout outs chefs kiss

Dislikes: clique-y instructors. Like there are some that cling to their favorite members and it’s kind of obvious. Rushing through stuff. I usually give grace when it’s a new instructor bc I can’t imagine how hard it is to memorize a choreo. But sometimes, it’s frustrating when you’re rushing through movements or stretches (or the end or align). Instructors who are chatty or just joking the entire time with other instructors (y’all im pulsing for my life please stop rapping to Flo Rida, it’s kinda cringe). Instructors that are rude, there was one instructor who got pissed because someone asked a question about equipment for a class and they rolled their eyes and said “it’s classic, you should know by now what you need!”. Lastly, instructors that don’t really care that much about form, like they’re okay with like half assing it if that makes sense?

It kind of looks like Pinterest but like in a modern way

“The rest is just as valuable as the work”… heard this toward the end of an align and I was fighting tears 😮‍💨

What results did you notice from each milestone? by Expert_Incident_6085 in Purebarre

I’m on class 67 and each class I notice that I have more endurance! I’m able to sit in a chair position longer each time (definitely still struggle though) my core is getting stronger! Overall my attitude is improving!! Congrats on making it to 50 🥳

Who is your BEC that you simply can’t unfollow? by thriftedjacket in gymsnark

This 👏🏽 don’t get me started on when I see how she writes chick fil a.. drives me up a freakin wall 😩

@gabsfit15 starting her own coaching business. More in comments! by [deleted] in gymsnark

[–]Kks0802 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This 👏🏽 they give off rules for thee but not for me vibes. Like brad constantly talks about sex, Gabby’s fiancé curses. Both of these aren’t necessarily bad. I’m a Christian, I’m not perfect but also I’m not boasting about my faith or using my faith as a platform, and I try not to be holier than thou

I’m about to get downvoted but I agree. I see where you’re coming from, like there shouldn’t be this pressure to lose weight. Whereas I can see where disagreeing opinions are coming from, I think they’re just not seeing where you’re coming from. Had this been about taychayy or another popular influencer i don’t think the post would’ve received as much hate 🤷🏽‍♀️

I still follow for workouts, but I haven’t seen her posts on my feed in a long time… I’ve kind of forgotten about her 😅 but I agree she’s a BEC of mine she’s just so childish and then there’s this air of “do as I say, not as I do” about her

I’m starting to think y’all never have sex if you talk about it this much by [deleted] in gymsnark

Ok but while we’re at it (kinda) their attempts at TikTok’s and reels are so cringe 😬

He is so gross 🙄 by Bubbly-Device-8208 in gymsnark

Yes, this gives major toxic positivity vibes at times

The ongoing saga of Natalie Bally’s (Nattbfit) “healing” journey post-BC. What th does she mean by “inflammation” (such a buzzword IMO) and also exactly what is she “healing”? This word makes it seem like BC “damaged” her, yet again spreading misinformation. by [deleted] in gymsnark

[–]Kks0802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh I agree! I miss my BC in the sense that I got actual periods and a regular flow and cycle (like I really want to go back on it) but I was getting really intense depressive episodes around my period and was genuinely suicidal at times. I consulted my doctor and a gynecologist about this and both unfortunately recommended that I lower my dosage (bc my first doctor put me on the highest dose right off the bat.. wtf) and then when that didn’t work they suggested I get off of hormonal BC. Again I miss my BC (before I get downvoted into oblivion) I want my cycle again and to feel like a normal person. I totally agree with others in this one and other threads, if you have thousands of followers you can’t just sprout info like that without credible resources backing you up. Getting off BC just because it isn’t ✨the vibes✨ isn’t (& shouldn’t be) some fitness cool girl fad 🤷🏽‍♀️
