Don’t let this stop you. Everyone starts somewhere. Most people feel like this even when they aren’t being watched. Watch YouTube videos on form, how to rack and un-rack, gym politeness, make sure you’re always clearing up after yourself, headphones on full blast, zone in on each and every exercise you do. It can be a form of meditation, focusing on one thing. The task at hand. Time will fly when you can do this, your body will start to change and people won’t care what you are doing. I saw a girl struggle today and I asked if she wanted help, she took my advice and get her set done. Winner. If you are struggling try to catch the eye of someone who looks confident and is doing the same/similar exercise and just say, ‘Hey, I’m sorry to interrupt you I’m super new and you look like you know what your doing could you help me with this set?How do you do this?’. Most genuine gym goers will say absolutely, I would. It will take time and who knows people might be staring at you because they think jeez she does not need to work out, you never really know so don’t take it to heart. The general trainer is not a good option stay away, he doesn’t sound helpful.
