Introduction

We've all been there.

Work has been too busy, illness, injury, COVID-19 etc. Sometimes we take some time away from the gym and although we would hopefully have kept up with some basic level of physical activity during our time away, the vast majority of us will be eager to hit the gym hard when we come back. Whether you consider the gym your spot to escape, a place to smash your fitness goals or your hangout to see your gym buddies, the last thing you should do is start at the gym in a way that causes you to become injured, disheartened or worse - waddling around like a duck for a week!

Here are my top 10 tips for you starting at, or returning to the gym. ​

Do you have a growth or a fixed mindset? Do you judge others? Do you look for reasons as to why you are not as successful as others? Perhaps you are always coming up with evidence to prove to others that you are a ‘good’ person. If this is you – you are not alone. The way you think and act manifests itself early in life, and some of us struggle with thinking ‘positively’. The topic of growth vs. fixed mindset can have a profound effect on your health, relationships, and happiness. The good news it that each one of us can change the way we act and think to ensure we are serving others, and ourselves, better. 

With gyms currently closed due to a national lockdown, we are all finding different ways to keep active. Buzz Gym is currently offering FREE virtual membership for you to keep fit and healthy while at home.

Setting 5 alarms each morning?

​Perhaps you feel you’re not an early-riser, or that you don’t need to wake up early. Maybe you haven’t found that special ‘why’ for getting up before the sun or are worried about how getting up early will affect your health. These are all genuine concerns. I will cover none of these in any great depth here.  In fact, this article presumes only one thing – that you want to wake up early, but you don’t know how. This is a no-nonsense, tough love, just start getting the hell out of bed kinda article.
