Delaying going to the gym because you are ashamed of your imperfect forms? In vain! In fact, everyone is so preoccupied with themselves that they don’t care about you. What you really shouldn’t do if you don’t want to attract too much attention, read below. Our author and gym frequenter Liza Sukhorukova shares her observations.
1. You are naked. Even if you are a true fitnyasha with a round butt and abs with cubes, do not rush to get naked. Believe me, people around will appreciate your achievements, even if you are in breeches and a T-shirt. But the micro shorts that expose the buttocks, and the top, from which the chest falls out, will cause bewilderment and a cheerful whisper behind your back. What looks sexy in motivational videos is inappropriate in real life. You still have to squat in these shorts! Well, if you are not a fit girl yet, then all the more forget about all these tight-fitting things. Think more about technique, not about how you look.
Believe me, he is the last thing he thinks about how you look.
2. You wear perfume before training. In the hall, you should smell of sweat, wet paths crawl on your T-shirt. This is clear? Yes, we all want to be beautiful always and everywhere. And I even resigned myself to the fact that after an hour in the gym, you walk in a dry T-shirt, your bright makeup does not blur, and your styling does not crumble. OK. But when the neighbors on the path in the pool can, without raising their heads out of the water, navigate in space by the smell of your perfume, this is already too much. Have mercy!
3. You climb with advice… If you are not a professional trainer or an athlete who has entered the gym for the physical training, you should not pester other visitors with advice. Well, only if they themselves ask. Are you unfamiliar with the exercise your neighbor is doing, or is his technique different from yours? Do not rush to instruct him on the right path, perhaps you have incomplete information.
Once a man in his 70s very persistently argued to me that it was no use drinking water during classes. He positioned himself as a great specialist, a healthy lifestyle guru and convinced me that I urgently needed to get used to enduring thirst (just in case, this should never be done!). In the end, he wasted 20 minutes of my time, until I rather rudely asked to leave me alone. And he is offended, and not useful to me.
Productive workouts for you!
