FRIDAY COFFEE WITH COACH
We build a whole lot more than muscle in the gym.
My favorite “muscle” is confidence.
I've been coaching women for years, and one of my favorite things I get to witness has absolutely nothing to do with the number on the scale, the size of your jeans, or the size of someone's muscles.
Don’t get me wrong. I love seeing a woman body recomp! But confidence is a whole other ball game.
Many women walk through a gym door for the first time feeling unsure of themselves, scared of what they will need to learn, maybe not knowing anyone.
But once they take that first step, look out. The woman who can find her “why” while also finding the courage to get started….Move… get out the way!” Because she has just started on the path to ultimate confidence.
It's the woman who says, "I can't do that," and then does it.
It's the woman who picks up a weight she never thought she could lift.
It's the woman who stops apologizing for taking up space.
It's the woman who starts standing a little taller, speaking a little louder, and trusting herself a little more.
Confidence currency is valuable everywhere, not just the gym.
Once she starts pushing herself out of her own comfort zone, it carries over into every aspect of her life. Family, friend circles, relationships and the work place.
Because every time you do something hard, every time you push through discomfort, every time you prove to yourself that you're capable of more than you thought, you're building something that no mirror or scale can measure.
Self-confidence isn't something you're born with. It's something you earn by keeping promises to yourself and doing things you once thought you couldn't.
I love seeing women get stronger, build muscle, and change their bodies. But watching them change the way they see THEMSELVES? That's the good stuff. ❤️
We may come to the gym to build stronger bodies, but we often leave with something even more valuable: a stronger belief in ourselves.
Now go do something today that makes you proud of yourself.
Happy Friday!
