From Gym Anxiety to Confidence

Key To Grace’s Success

1. Grace educated herself:

Grace’s challenge with going to the gym as a beginner was the overwhelming equipment. For someone new to the gym, it gets too much to handle especially when they have little to zero knowledge about how and what to use to achieve their goals. Coach Afshan came to Grace’s rescue, and she taught her the equipment and more importantly the correct posture and technique of using the equipment, to avoid injury and increase the effectiveness of the workout.

2. Grace was consistent:

Grace was consistent with listening to every piece of advice Afshan gave her, whether it be on what food to eat, how much to eat, what more to add, etc. to how many times to train a week and at what endurance level to train. These small changes brought in a bigger change for Grace.

3. Grace had support from her Personal Trainer:

Afshan had clear ideas from Grace in terms of her expectations from TSquared Lab. Moreover, her difficulties were even more precise. Therefore, it was pivotal for Afshan to educate Grace on what and how much she can eat, considering her social eating habits. She had to be trained on postures to begin with, to remove the overwhelming feeling when she gets in the gym. Afshan was required to be a friend more than a gym to make Grace comfortable and clarify misconceptions and then move to the transformation part, by changing to a Coach again. Afshan has supported Grace in every capacity she could to help Grace gain her older confidence with weight loss.

4. Grace’s challenges were well defined:

Grace had complete awareness of her challenges, which made her focus clear. She could pass on the similar clarity of the goals to her Coach, which could then customise a program for Grace. Social eating habits and the misconception of a bulky body due to workouts were the major blocks. Furthermore, no knowledge of equipment and posture was an additional barrier. Her Coach resolved one issue at a time, giving her a fair understanding of the reality and resolution of certain habits.

5. Grace was keen to train from a fitness facility:

Grace’s thought that training alone at home doesn’t get discipline and accountability was true for her and her overview towards fitness. She wanted a gym environment and professional support, which she received from TSquared Lab. She gained a training structure to follow along with the support from Afshan, which brought in the transformation for her.
