First time was kind of weird, self conscious and all. Since then, I just go and do my thing; care less about what others think. Still avoiding to hog the equipment and be polite and all that. Also I learned more technique so I get fewer injuries, and I go slower on increasing the weights from week to week.

Weird. Felt a little self conscious. Mainly did cardio.

That was in 2016. Been 7 years now and it’s much better. Seeing progress obviously helps but it’s all about consistency to feel more comfortable. Glad you’re enjoying going! 💪
