2 and half stone lost already

Before I started I was overweight, weak and very self conscious. I was concerned about being unable to do the exercises as I lack co-ordination and had never lifted weights before. I was also nervous that the gym would be full of posers and that I’d feel really uncomfortable and out of place.
I was very nervous at my first session but the coach and the members at the session were all very kind to me. Everyone was very encouraging and all of the exercises were adapted for me. Over time, being in the gym has become a lot more natural and I understand the exercises.
I had never done anything like this before and really struggled with posture at first but now I can deadlift with a straight back and perform other complex movements. I try exercises I never would have attempted when I joined less than a year ago.Â
I have lost over 2.5 stones in weight in a matter of months and I'm so much stronger performing day to day activities.
The thing I love most about coming to Five Gates is the community. We enjoy working out together and work hard while having a giggle.
