This made me laugh out loud. I literally cannot move from my car. 🤪💃🔥💗

Diary of a Fitness Instructor 😂💬📔
On the way to class, we are absolutely BUZZING. 🙌🎉
Music blasting, singing in the car, practising choreography at the traffic lights, thinking ‘LET’S GOOOOOO!’ 💁🏻♀️ and arriving with enough energy to power the entire building. ⚡️🔋😂
Then class starts and we are ready. Shouting, dancing, jumping, motivating, smiling, demonstrating and somehow convincing everyone that doing another track is a brilliant idea (which it is 😉)… 🤣
We give everyone EVERYTHING.
Then… the music stops and the class finishes.
We walk back to the car like we’ve just completed a 12-hour shift in the trenches. 🤣💀 Get in, close the door, drive home and… SILENCE 🤐🏳️🏳️🏳️
Then we get the famous post-class car sit.
❌ We’re not talking
❌ We’re not moving
❌ We’re barely blinking - just staring through the windscreen, processing the last 45 minutes and wondering why and how we shouted positive phrases approximately 186 times. 😂
Sometimes it’s 10 minutes, maybe even 30…. sometimes you’re still there an hour later wondering if you actually live in the car now. 🤣
People see the instructor during class: loud, energetic, dancing around like they’ve had 14 coffees and a personal sponsorship from Red Bull (or Monster in my case) 😂
What they don’t see is that we show up tired, stressed, injured, having a rubbish day or when life is throwing absolute madness at us.
Because when our people turn up, we give them our energy - ALL OF IT!
And afterwards? System Shutdown ❌🪫💀
‘You’re always so energetic! How do you do it?’
We spend it all in the class. We don’t have secret reserve tanks hidden under our sports bras (how bloody good would that be - plug us in and off we go 🤣) 😂
Being a fitness instructor isn’t just standing at the front doing exercises. It’s giving everyone else your energy, then sitting in your car afterwards like you’ve just returned from a bloody war. 😂💀
Remember to be kind to your instructor, they are probably running off caffeine and adrenaline 🤣🪫⚡️
Fitness instructors, tell me I’m not the only one who does the post-class car sit?! ⬇️😭
